Sorry to inform you,but stretch marks do not go away. They get better over time(fades a little),but there they are mocking your every effort.

Remember, they're superficial, those marks don't define who we are, just maybe how far we've come from where we've been!

if u cant fix it, the A Team can..

Ten years ago a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem and no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-team.

M2M is right...

The best advise I can offer is to take in some form of vitamin E. Vitamin can be used on fresh scars to help with the 'redness' and help get them to nomal skin colour at least in most cases. (my ex GF was told to use it after an operation to keep the redness down - it got to the point where you could barely see the scar at all) I heard you can get a vit E oil(how true i dont know). I think however the more conventional methed can be E-45 cream and obviously eat a couple more foods which are rich in vit E.

I know this can help a bit with stretch marks - each case is different as we are all individual... but give it a whirl, you have nothing to lose and vit E is good for your skin anyhow

They do fade a fair bit into silvery lines - if you're as white as me they are barely noticeable

Pure shea butter makes they go away. You have to apply it every day but its worth it in the end. Stretch marks may not define who you are but they arent that attractive when you get done to your 2 piece bathing suit size.
