I am 18, and when in high school I weighed about 125 and now I weigh a remarkable 147 on a good day! And I just recently noticed that I have red stretchmarks coming onto my thighs and I need something to get rid of them.! PLEASE HELP! :( Anyting you tried I would greatly appreciated everything you tell me. I know losing weight would help. So I have been reducing what I eat and walking after work.

αfter pregnαncy I found α tiny little stretch mαrk below my nαvel (like 1/4 of αn inch) αnd well I bought Striαe α stretch mαrk remover αnd well no more stretch mαrk it's gone:) you cαn buy it αt Striae® Stretch Mark Cream - Remove Stretch Marks (http://www.stretchmark.com/).. there αre αlso lαser treαtments for it.
In αny cαse α creαm with high αmount of cocoα butter would work:)-- like bαrmon is αlso excellent!Stretch Mark Cream - Barmon's proven solution for stretch marks for over 25 years | Success Stories (http://www.barmon.com/site2/letters.html)

Throughout my pregnancy I used palmers, but it didn't work like I would want it to. I found that taking vitamin E capsules and breaking them and rubbing the liquid on the area helps, but really I have never fully been able to get rid of mine... but mine are really light silvery colored... so I was not so concerned. It may work better on a darker stretch mark. Good luck.

I use Barmon and that is the only thing that has worked for me so far. It is good that you are trying to lose weight and eat right because believe it or not it will help them appear less noticeable because it will reduce the slack on the skin and eating healthier helps the skin to repair itself faster. Good Luck and I hope this helps!

Vitamin E helped me. I have also heard that shea butter helps, but have never tried it myself. Mine faded after a few years, and are hardly noticeable now. They aren't noticeable at all when I spray-tan.

Somepeoples say use 'palmer cocoa butter' for it or bio oil. I used bio oil but it wasn't that good imo
