cocbutter only helps preventing stretch marks like in early months of pregnancy, I've been trying different ways to get rid of them and spent alot also but let me tell you nothing (and I mean nothing) helps reducing stretch marks. once you get them they'll stay forever.

Nothing "gets rid" of stretchmarks. But for some folks, cocobutter works to lighten them a little. As do some of the stretchmark creams. Stretchmarks are basically scars and may never lighten, just depends on the elasticity of a persons skin.

I was listening to an interview of a prominent Dallas Area plastic surgeon. Now, i should tell you that Dallas has more plastic surgeons per ca-pita that Beverly Hills.
Anyway, Dr. Toledo basically said that stretch marks can not be gotten rid off, they can only be made "less visible". He recommended Vitamin "E" but I don't remember if he said to rub it on the marks or to take it orally. He also mentioned using moisturizers.
In any case stretch marks are cause, he said, by a sudden weight changes. Basically if you work out you going to get them, if diet and lose weight to fast you'll get them. He said you should moisterize, especially if you are working out or dieting.
Dr. Toledo also said the Micro Derm's did not get rid of them.

Sorry yet you are able to no longer do away with stretch marks (different than by splendor laser remedies) i might end nerve-racking as almost all women (and a few boys) gets them as they 'fill out' over the years they are going to gradually fade. as quickly as a stretchmark has already formed, no creams or creams would be waiting to cut back their visual attraction. multiple trials have been studied and no cream has been shown to paintings at making them disappear. it particularly is in easy terms a count of time... shop on moisturising nonetheless to assist avert further ones from forming.

THERE IS NO ACTUALLY WAY TO GET RID OF THE COCOBUTTER PREVENTS FUTURE STRETCH MARKS SO ITS A GOOD IDEA TO KEEP USING IT BUT OVER TIME THE STRETCH MARKS TURN WHITE BUT TONING UP TENDS TO MAKE THEM LESS VISIBLE ALSO

1. Moisturizers and creams. Cocoa butter or anything containing vitamin E is good.
2. Alpha hydroxy acids to exfoliate the skin, soften the skin, and improved elasticity.
3. Tretinoin or Retin-A. This compound loosens the keratin in the outer skin layers and helps to exfoliate dead skin cells.
4. Surgery to remove the affected skin. A tummy tuck is one example when surgery removes stretch marks

It doesn't, stretch marks can be visibly decreased by doing the following: loose weight & toning, and use strivectin. Strivectin is great for wrinkles and stretch marks because it was originally developed for the treatment of scars. I guarantee it'll work or your money back!!

Use vitamin E oil from a capsule. Puncture the capsule and use the oil from it. It takes a few weeks for results.

My wife used cocoa butter and Vitamin E oil and it worked for her. O course if she is expecting results over night, it isn't going to happen, it takes weeks.
