stretch mark cream?

[KasumiNeko]

okkei~ so I've read a/b it, ne?

I hear what it does is removes the old, dead, stretched skin and helps new skin to grow in (that is obviously not stretched out. lolz)

And when you're in the shower, exfoliate your skin and all that~ and after your shower you put on the stretch mark cream~ and it helps alot more, or something~

could somebody tell me if this works?

I have seen before and after pictures~ but there is a such thing as photoshop too~ So you can never be sure~ =P

It seems ot make sense to me~ but is very expensive~

what you all think? =3

Eh, some creams work on new stretch marks that are pink/red. But only laser surgery and a process that removes the skin completely can work. With time, if you use certain creams or cocoa butter, it will reduce the appearance.

If it does work, if it TRULY works, I'd definitely try it. But I haven't heard anything about it.

I seriously doubt any cream that can get rid of stretch marks. I certainly wouldn't buy any that claimed this. In my mind and I don't mind being corrected if Im wrong, the skin is damaged beyond repair. The redness of new stretch marks will fade over time, but the skin will not "mend together" again.

Alas - stretch marks are subcutaneous skin tears, not superficial skin tears.

The best thing you can do for them is give them time to soften to a gentle silver colour instead of angry red. They won't heal and they won't go away, but they will hide a bit with time.

I have had stretch marks since I was 11. I went from having no body at all about 60 lbs to having one over one summer. I gained 40 lbs during this time. I got breasts, hips, butt etc all during this time. It doesn't seem that my stretch marks have gotten any worse since puberty, but as someone else mentioned the creams will help reduce the redness of new ones, but doesn't remove old ones.
