any vitamin E cream works...theres also a cream for pregnant woman since their bellys get stretch marks..you can use that cream too...it really makes the stretch marks look better...dont be afraid to wear shorts and bikinis cause alot of girls have stretch marks...i have them =)

that happens to a lot of girls at our age but like lihny said, they usually fade hwen you get older. if your not patient enough, buy some coacoa butter for only a few dollars. it works pretty well. it fades scars and stretch marks

put it on a few times a day

I think Cocoa Butter can help. It evens out your skin tone and fades scars and such.

there are certain creams that can help you get rid of them. but if you ever want to get rid of them by lazer remember that if they are red or a dark colour the doctors can probably get rid of them, but if they're white lazer won't help you even if the doctor says it will.

cocoa butter and the pregnant creams work... but if you're rich enough, and you want em out asap, you could go find a derma or a doc, and pay a whole lotta money to have a couple of sessions of having that suction thingy... forgot the name. But it evens your skin tone and all that. yah o.o; *nods*

I hate stretch marks, they happen when the tissue under the skin is pulled by rapid growth or stretching. I have them on my inner thighs but I'm using this special creme and it's working (and I've only been using it for a few days.) It's called ScarZone, and you just put it on wherever the strech marks are twice a day and then they'll eventually fade.

Ahhhhh, thank you.
My family has always told me that you only get stretch marks if you're "fat"/overweight/obese.
Goddamnit. They killed my self-esteem for years.
Now, I'm adding ScarZone and cocoa butter to my shopping list.

Try StriVectin-SD by Klein-Becker
You can get it at Sephora.com or at their store for 135$ us. dollars.
StriVectin-SD ®
*I copied and pasted this part from sephora.com
StriVectin-SD ® is a multi-action skin perfector enriched with Striadril, a key compound containing patented pentapeptides that significantly improve the appearance of facial wrinkles, stretch marks, and minor skin imperfections by aiding the build-up of collagen. Unlike many other anti-aging treatments, Striadril is more stable (longer shelf life), better tolerated (causes less irritation), safer, and more effective.
I use it.
I'm having great results. It's worth the cost and it does last you a while.
