Please be real with me, give me products names, and struggles. I have a skin condition as it is and my legs are one of the only places where the condition hasn't spread yet but I am starting to get stretch marks, in so self conscious that I'm planing on donating all my skirts and dress.

I know it sounds weird but the cream they have for pregnant women works wonders! its called Palmers cocoa butter formula. if u don't like that idea use some of the burts bees lotion that has vitamins and coconut oil.

Rose hip seed oil is a miracle. I give it to all of my clients that are pregnant or have just given birth. It's fantastic for stretch marks.

Really, honestly, truly? You're stuck with them. You earned those stripes. Embrace them. Lotions, creams, and peels may give the appearance of fading the marks, but your skin is damaged from rapid growth of tissues below the skin (growth spurts, pregnancy, weight gain). We are taught to think they are gross, but they are actually beautiful reminders of the life you have led.

Some things might reduce the look of them but not make them go away , a more permanent solution is permanent makeup , they fill in the lines with a dye that's like your skin color making them appear less .. Hope this helps, good luck :)

Another Palmer's Cocoa Butter formula for pregnant ladies fan here and I swear by it. When I was pregnant with my son I got red stretch marks and this lotion did help me to fade them. They will never completely go away, just fade. Now I have white lines, barely visible on my skin.

scientifically once your get stretch Marks you can't get rid of them fully- laser helps with the color, some creams can help with color but its like breaking an elastic band- you can't get it back together and working perfectly ever

It depends on how old they are. If They're New Or in the process of reforming they can't be reversible. If stretch marks are old they have already turned into scar tissue. Bio oil helps palmers cocoa butter helps. But it would definitely see a dermatologist if the condition you're talking about is causing the stretch marks.
