Stretch marks can appear red or brown at first depending on your skin color, but they do fade to silver. It's not just the top layer of skin that stretches. The underlying layers stretch too and this creates small tears in the collagen (which is what gives skin its elasticity). There is currently, no safe effective means to either prevent or remove stretch marks. Emollient, lubricants with lanolin, cocoa butter, Vitamin E may make the skin feel more comfortable but will not have any effect on the marks. Laser surgery and Microdermabrasion may help reduce the look of stretch mark.

I tried Mederma for some time, but did not see much difference.
There are a lot of cremes that are available for stretch-marks. I find cocoa butter to help even out the skin and reduce the different texture of the marks. :)

Try rose hip oil. I'm not sure if it really works but I've watched actresses testify on TV that it does. :p
