is it true that if you lose wieght you stretch marks will become less noticable?

Stretch marks are permanent, there is nothing that will make them go away, unless you get them surgically removed. But they become less noticeable once the weight is lost. Even though stretch marks are inevitable for some, keeping the skin moist and eating well are some of the best ways to prevent them and help make them less noticeable.

its not always true. my husband was overwieght once. There were no strechmarks until he lost most of the weight. Now the marks are really noticable.
