Try cocoa butter lotion or cream, it worked for me.  Takes time, but works if you put it on after your shower and before bed

Try applying cocoa butter on them and massaging daily. Another option is a paste of turmeric, yogurt and rice flour. Apply on the scar and when the paste dries srub them off.\n\nPS: Turmeric can lightly stain towels and clothes. So wash away with a mild soap after scrubbing it off. Good luck!

I'm in dermatology-I'm sorry to be bearer of bad news, but unfortunately stretch mark removal is a myth...There is no way to get rid of them...However, cocoa butter is a great lotion to use to promote elasticity and hopefully prevent further stretch marks...Also, there is a product called Dermablend that is a body makeup. This is used to cover unwanted scars, discoloration, etc. Great for the summertime...Good luck!

Try Bio Oil, it is very good for fading scars and blemishes, can be brought quite easily from most chemists, it worked for me on a small scar that I had had for years, so its worth a try.

I'm very fair skinned. I have stretch marks from pregnancy. I've tried trilastin, strivectin, barmons, and almost all others claiming to remove stretch marks.  Please don't waste your money.  None of them work.  I've had the best results with simple home exfoliation but they are still there.  I don't think there is any way to remove them.  I saw something on TV about a new laser that can possibly return the skin to proper color but I've only found a clinic in Beverly Hills, CA.  I've also heard that chemical peels can improve or remove stretchmarks but I purchased one recently and my result is severely burned skin. Please try to accept yourself for the unique person you are.  Dare to be different.  That is what I've finally come to.  We are so bombarded by the media to  look perfect when in the real world it doesn't exist. I'm sure you are beautiful just he way you are.

Exfoliate and moisturize.  \n\nExfoliating removes the dead skin cells on the surface.  Also drink lots of water.

Stretch marks are an inevitable result of pregnancy or rapid weight loss for some men and women. However, the following steps may help you reduce their appearance.\nInstructions \nSTEP 1: Brush your skin with a loofah or skin brush when you shower to stimulate circulation. STEP 2: Massage cocoa butter into the stretch marks. STEP 3: Use vitamin E oil on your stretch marks. Massage it into your skin after a shower. STEP 4: Talk to your doctor about using tretinoin cream on stretch marks. It is available by prescription only. STEP 5: Eat foods high in vitamins A, E and C (see Related eHows), or take supplements in addition to your diet. However, pregnant women should avoid taking more than 25,000 IU of vitamin A. STEP 6: Add foods or supplements to your diet that are high in zinc (see Related eHow), which is good for the skin, and silica (beets, brown rice, bell peppers, soybeans, leafy green vegetables and whole grains), which helps form collagen, the supporting fibers in the skin. STEP 7: Eat foods that contain essential fatty acids, which help make cell walls. Essential fatty acids can be found in many vegetables, vegetable oils and fish oils. Tips & Warnings \nLasers have shown some promise in reducing the appearance of stretch marks. They seem to work best on stretch marks that are still fairly new and are red or purple in color. \nCheck your local supermarket or drugstore for commercial creams such as Belly Butter, a moisturizing and replenishing maternity body cream. \nAlways consult your doctor or a medical professional before making changes to your diet.

get an aloe plant, or aloe plant cream. If you get the plant, which i recommend for the future, cut offone of the top branches, cut it in half, then rub the juces on your skin. This stuff is awsome for all skin problems.

There are a variety of creams and lotions to prevent stretch marks which you can find at any local grocery/department store (such as Walmart and Target), but I believe you may have to pay to have them removed. Consult with your family doctor for other options.

To prevent stretch marks and scars effectively use cocoa butter or a mixture of olive oil and herbs. You can find more cheap and natural remedies for stretch marks and scars at http://www.wellnesstalk.org/stretchmarks

Exfoliating is the answer. There are scrubs and mittens that do the trick. Speak to a dermatologist or speak to your pharmacist they can help. good luck :-)

There are many things out there that you can use. A product my daughter uses works well at reducing the appearance of them. It's simply called "stretch mark cream." You can get it at Walmart. They say that mederma works well to reduce the appearance of them as well. \n\nAnything that you use is only going to reduce the appearance, but there is nothing to remove them completely. The only way to get rid of them completely is to have a tummy tuck, or other plastic surgery.

haha this was just asked i thought.  I get the same problem on my upper arms bro, coco butter lotion W/ vitemin E twice a day when you get up and when you go to sleep every day.  It will take the color out of the marks and if they're smaller make em heal away.

1. Wash your face thoroughly with a mild soap such as cetaphil.\n2. Rinse with warm water.\n3. Apply a benzoyl peroxide topical cream, such as Clearasil, BP or On -The-Spot, to affected areas only. Homeopathic alternatives include tea tree oil, baking soda paste (mix with a little water, apply and let dry), and witch hazel.\n4. After topical treatment is dry, apply a basic face moisturizer, unscented is best.\n5. Once a week, use a kaolin-clay-based mask and let dry to pull impurities from your skin.\n6. Rinse with warm water, then exfoliate with a scrub such as Swiss Valley Apricot Scrub or Neutrogena 60-Second Mask/Scrub.\n7. Be sure to moisturize well after your weekly treatment. \n\n* 2.5% to 5% Benzoyl-Peroxide Solutions are sufficient; 10% or higher can irritate the skin and exacerbate the problem.\n* Moisturizing is an important daily step, don't skip the moisturizer just because you think your skin is oily. Regular moisturizing will help keep your skin pimple free.\n* Pimple-fighting concealer can also be used for protection all day.\n* Don't use rubbing alcohol. It will sting like crazy and dry and irritate your skin\n* Taking vitamins regularly can also help your skin.\n* Avoid smoking or taking immuno-suppressants (such as steroids)\n* Some foods, like garlic and onions, are thought to improve skin conditions. \n\n* DON'T TOUCH: When you get a pimple, imagine that there is police tape around it. Your pimple is off limits to touch. The oils from your hands will make it harder for it to go away. Do NOT pop it. This will spread the bacteria (causing more pimples on other areas of your face) and may leave a scar (whether you use your fingernails or not). In general, don't touch your face unless you are actively washing it!\n* While you should always discuss any helth issues with your doctor, it's especially important to consult a dermatologist if your acne affects more than 30% of your skin, if breakouts increase after beginning treatment, or if you experience scarring.\n* When you start the treatment, your acne might appear to flare for a week or two, as your skin gets used to the new routine and impurities are drawn from your pores.

try a toner or bleaching creme, or coco butter ( the latter takes longer to work) but first I would consult a dermatologist

You cannot get rid of stretch marks.  You can prevent them by using moisturizer.  \n\nIf you have to get rid of them no matter what, lazer surgery might work.
