I'm 16 soon to be 17. And i have horrible stretch marks on my hips! I understand they are normal but i haven't seen anyone with them as bad as how i have them. So my sister told me to go tan outside to help hide them and now they stand out even more! I need to know something that will work. I have time but don't want to wait a couple of months for results. Any suggestions?

I promise you I have them worse. *lol*
They are on my boobs, my stomach, my hips, my back half way up my back and tummy!
Anyway, I need to know the answers too. I know cocoa butter is supposed to help but its a slow process.

I have the same problem, and i have no idea so i'm gunna wait for answers!
ReplyDeleteThere is no quick fix...However, keeping your skin moisturized will help them fade. Also try using pure coca butter on them, they will fade in time. Sorry, no quick fix!
ReplyDeleterub baby batter on them
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOD I AM IN THE SAME BOAT AS YOU ARE.
ReplyDeleteim 15, i have stretch marks on my inner thighs. im not fat...im 5'3 and 113 pounds...and im extremely athletic.=_= not fair right?
well anyways ive been on the quest to get rid of these things here is what ive found i hope this can help ya!
1. i have been rubbing cocoa butter on these things, and no matter what people tell you, it DOES NOT HELP. cocoa butter only helps PREVENT stretch marks not get rid of htem or lessen them! grrrr!
2. laser therapy. it is extremely costly, but the results are great. im getting it done thank god! xD
3. tanning is the worst thing for stretch marks and im sorry you had to experience it first hand =(. the sun is bad, it breaks down the skin on the outer layer which leads to worse stretch marks. YOU GOTTA PUT SUNBLOCK ON THE STRETCH MARKS OR THEY WILL GET WORSE. TRUST ME.
4....well thats all i got. so far ive tried creams and lotions and serums nothings worked, so im going in for the laser therapy and im positive it will work..
5. ive discovered that another thing that is the lead cause of stretch marks is the gain/loss of weight in a short period of time. however this is not the case for me, and in my case i guess im genetically prone to having these stupid marks...damnit! so basically you gotta keep your weight the same if you wana stop from getting more of these.
OH OH OH red stretch marks are the easiest to get rid of, so if yours are still red hurry and get to your dermatologist / costmetic surgeon asap!
i hope helped you...and im sorry you gotta suffer with these damn marks like i do...but please look into laser therapy its really promising.
u gotta use coconut oil and other topical oils......and massage it into ur stretchmarks....or just tan it out?
ReplyDeleteif your this self concious about them now i'd avoid pregnancy all togethor if i were you... seriously though cocoa butter or mederma or any scar fading product medermas the one that worked best for my mom and she had 9 kids sooo yeah that and it helps if your well hydrated so drink LOTS of water and tanning to hide scars is probably in the top ten silliest things i've ever heard... anyway you can get either product at any local walmart in the health and beauty section
