    Bio Oil for stretch marks
    Hi all!

    I was wondering if anyone has used bio oil for stretch marks.
    Does it make it go away or make it fade?
    Where can I purchase it and how much does it usually go for?


    Thanks :)

    Hi there peaches I have used bio oil and I think its great stuff, surgeons here recommend it after breast surgery as it makes the scars go away I have no stretch marks on my tummy I used it while pregnant.
    It can be bought from your local chemist .: Bio Oil :. the site will tell you if its available where you are if not your second option is eBay.
    Its not cheep but its worth the money for sure they scars and stretch marks gradually fade to nothing with continual use.

    Heya I'm currently in the process of trying bio oil on my stretch marks, it says use twice daily, I went through a 60ml bottle in about 2 weeks so I bought the largest one which for me here in the uk cost £19.95 from boots, but I'm that depressed I am willing to try anything, so far it hasn't had major effects, but my friend is also currently using it on a burn she has and she has really noticed the difference. I am also going to try the palmers cocoa butter as that is supposed to be abother formula which for some reason is currently on offer in most health stores, e.g boots, tesco, superdrug!
    Good luck, keep in touch I would love to hear peoples stories!
    I have recently been looking into laser treatment as mine really get to me so much!

    With all due respect noesteem how much of it are you using your supposed to use it sparingly and not over work it into the skin if your stretch marks are that severe then it will take time to work nothing will make them vanish in two weeks and you should have gone to superdrug its cheeper boots have the manopoly because everyone trusts there name shop around even check eBay I got my last two bottles for 9 pounds delivered.

    If you have very narrow stretch marks, Bio Oil seems to work, but for the large deep ones - nothing works.
