Well i know people who have them..they say cocoa butter helps a little
also some of them put cod liver oil and vitmain e oil daily
i'm not sure whether it'll go off completely though :/
maybe you want to try some stretch mark removal cream?
The products to look for are those that contain Emu Oil, Oleic Acid, Cocoa Butter, Wheat Germ Oil, Vitamin E and Lanolin.
All of these products in different combinations penetrate deep into the skin and help to return the skin to normal, but also help the skin to become stronger and prevent further stretching....
you could try going to a dermatologist for help

If you're in your teens it's normal for you to have stretch marks on your inner thighs and breasts. I've got them.

A friend told me her sister got them when she was 14 but as she got older they started fading.
I'm not sure if it's true or not but in the mean time try cocoa butter and see someone to see if they can recommend a cream or something.

All the products that say they can get rid of stretch marks they can't. Expect if you look in the baby section of like wal*mart, zellers, shoppers, walgreens etc. you will find stuff for prignet mothers. It really does work.

Default Stretch Marks reply.

Cocoa Butter did work for me, but I used it consistantly along with exfoliating. It diminishes the appearance, but it does not get rid of the feeling. I also tried a special stretch mark cream with vitamin K in it, that worked better for the chest area

I have stretch marks on my upper thighs, pretty much on the sides of my butt. I don't understand how I have so many, but I do, and it looks terrible. I can't wear a nice swimsuit, either. instead, for the bottom I wear the shorts-style (boyshorts?).

I'm currently trying some Palmer's stetch mark cream, that contains cocoa and shea butter, and Vitamin E, but I haven't noticed any real difference. I've tried a lot of Vitamin E products, but I haven't had any results yet.

Italianbebe, is there ANY product that gets rid of the feeling? I think I hate that more than the actual marks, because the texture of my skin doesn't feel as nice and smooth as it used to.

If your shower is a power one (the one where there is a setting to make it come out really fast) i read in a newspaper that if you use it on your stretch marks thwey will go away after some time. But i'm not sure if its true or not!

Well, to this day I still have a little bit of that nasty feeling as well, but really it's not as bad as it used to. I used this stuff called vita-K..which worked well for the ones that you could see. It began to fade them a lot and eventually they mostly went away. I also tried vigurous workouts to get rid of the ones on my hips and thighs. I did that eliptical machine and just walked a whole lot more. It could of had something to do with it. I can look more into it too because I wouldn't mind knowing myself how to get rid of the feeling of stretchmarks. I'll let you know when I find more Hope it helps some.
