How to get rid of stretch mark naturally?

Is there a good way to get rid of very large stretch mark?

  • after a long hospital stay i lost a lot of weight, then was put on steriods that caused me to gain weight very quickly. because of this i developed several stretch marks on my lower back taht are all up to 6 inches long and about an inch wide. i have grown used to them but i would like to get rid of them.

  • Answer:

    I FEEL your pain. And believe me, I hate to have to tell you this because I wish it weren’t true….but there is NO WAY…absolutely NO WAY to remove stretch marks!! You can buy creams, you can have laser surgery, and you can have micro-dermabrasion done but they will ONLY MINIMIZE your marks. They will NOT fully make them disappear. I’m sure this isn’t the answer you wanted, but it is the absolute truth. Before you go out and spend a lot of money on products that aren’t going to work, I would seriously urge you to talk to your doctor; he will basically tell you the same thing. Trust me, Hon, I wish I could get rid of mine too. Have a great day and good luck. =)

Perhaps you should have been moisturizing as it was happening, but get some Vitamin E lotion and apply faithfully.

I know that people is using tattoo to cover stretch marks, they use a pigment close to your natural skin color, and only tattoo where the mark is.

There is no way to get rid of them...they only good think is, they fade after time. New ones are really red but they do fade after a while. I wouldn' t waste any money on anything that says it can get rid of them. Nothin can...sorry!

I resently had a baby (9 months ago...not that resent.) and i gained WAY to much weight because of medical reasons....any who in the past few months i have begain to thoose the weight (i couldn't diet before because i was breast feeding) and now you almost can't see them. They were pretty bad because the ydeveloped in about 2 months...so my advise is give it some time once you start looing weight they will start to tunr...within a year you wont even remember they are there. Also if you can remember put lotion (preferible a cream or thick lotion) every day and drink alot of cirtus...that helps the skin to be elastic and hydrated...that may or may not help...but either way is good prectice.

Mederma for Scars... it is approximately $30.00 a tube, one tube is approx. 8 ounces, it also comes in a smaller size as well. It is easy to find... Wal Mart and drug stores usually carry it. Rub it onto the scar religiously everyday twice a day like the instructions specify. One bottle should last a month and depending on the depth of the scar one or two months using Mederma would improve the texture of the skin where the scar is at. If you don't see any improvement find a dermatologist in your area and see if there is anything that they can do for you.
