okay, well i discovered that i have like four little stretch marks on my knee, to the side and trust me, i was NOT pregnant (well it wasnt on the stomach anyway,) or gained wait so fast... my parents say it could have been that my bones and stuff inside me could be growing fast and the skin wont grow fast with it?? but trust me,,, i did NOT gain like pounds in a month... i'm the same old weight that i was before.... sooo what do u think it could have been?

Umm im not sure but if your really worried about it just go see a doctor.

well no need to see a doctor.. i just hate it!?

coco (sp?) butter lotion

i have some on my hips

Cocoa butter. Yup yup. In the meantime you can use a coverup stick to hide the marks. And I have stretch marks on the back of my knees...it's basically what your parents said. You're growing and your skin is stretching so you get stretch marks.

I don't think there's even surgery for it. I have them on my hips as well.

Cocoa butter lotion? coool.
What i've heard is that pure vitamin E oil gets rid of stretch marks, scars, etcetc.

I have the same problem.. when i was little my insides grew faster than my skin so i have stretch marks up my back and in the inside of my thighs... i have this stuff from avon i am using seems to work ok...

Yeah basically waht your parents said... I dont think theres a way to get rid of them, you just have to wait until they fade away...you could try cocoa butter or something with vitamin E

When i was younger (bout a year ago) and my boobs were still growing i got them on my boobs. After they stopped growing the stretch marks went away which as wierd. I have perminent ones on my thighs though...i think i might try cocoa butter like someone suggested.

I don`t know but coco butter works good.

i wish my stretch marks would go away.
vitamin E doesn't work on me.

agreed on the cocoa butter lotion tip...i haven't tried it myslef, though i should since i have stretch marks of my own...but i've heard that it works great:thumbsup:

I have some too I used Mederma/Cocoa Butter lotion and they were gone in like a month and a half

Don't worry you're just growing into a woman.

i always wanted to try the mederma stuff.
i should since you said it worked heh.

thanks guys.. do you get cocoa lotion from bath and body works??

Has anyone that actually USED cocoa butter vouched for it? I mean.. I tried it awhile ago, but it never worked for me..

whoa

That helps.

i guess its different for people..

but does it really go away 100%??

because my mom said it never goes away

because it's your skin that's ripped..

and where do you get the cocoa butter lotion?

So I know this girl, shes really really really really really obese, More than that. She has stretch marks on her arm just like in the middle of no where would that Cocoa butter stuff work for her? Because if it does, I'm going to try to get her some to help ease the eyesore for everyone in the classroom.

um i have them too except i have a gazillion in between my legs & on my side.i went to the doctor about it, it's that your body is growing,and your skin isn't ready to stretch that fast.you can't really do anything about it is what he told me..

Cocoa butter will help fade them. If it makes you feel better, most people have them and are concious of them as well.
