Question

Can someone please refer me to a cream or lotion that might help in fading stretch marks??

Answer 1

palmer's cocoa butter for stretch marks

it was originally for pregnant women but it works if your stretch marks are fresh(red)

if yours are white it wont work anymore

=]

Answer 2

I dont think there is anything that can help reduce the appearence of stretch marks.. The good news is, that stretch marks tend to fade away through-out time depending on the color. If they are purple in color then they will fade, but they will not go away completely. If they are lighter then your natural skin color, then they will fade and barely even be noticable anymore. Try putting sunscreen on everywhere BUT the marks when your in the sun.

Answer 3

Palmers Cocoa Butter, works wonders.....

I would suggest the actual butter form (not the lotion), it comes in a jar for about 8 bucks at the beauthy supply. It will last you bout three months, and your skin will begin to glow & look healthier too.

coco butter

Answer 8

I have searched the world over for something to help. I used coco butter every single day while I was pregnant and it didn't help. I have found that a gel called "Mederma" works pretty well. It faded mine some. I had to ask for it over the counter at the pharmacy, you don't need a prescription though. It's pretty expensive... like 13 dollars for a small tube. It also caused my to "itch" a little, but that made me feel like it was working. Good Luck.  

Answer 9

No, I tried no many and they didn't work.  Try some Vitamin E oil or just regular lotion and keep your sking moisturized all the time.  That's what I do and they look lighter.

Answer 10

There is a lot of stretch mark treatment available on the market these days. Some treatments are more effective in fading or even eliminating stretch marks, but the success of the treatment depends on a few different things. First of all is the color and age of the stretch marks. If they have faded to a flesh color they are much harder to heal. Second of all, ethnicity and heredity play a role in which creams, oils and other products or equipment will succeed in healing stretch marks.

The cheapest stretch mark treatment available is creams made especially for stretch marks. The most effective creams contain ingredients such as cocoa butter, lanolin and wheat germ oil. These creams actually heal and rebuild the damaged skin. While they may not be able to completely eliminate stretch marks, they may at least make the stretch marks fade to a barely visible scar. A good recommendation will be Palmer Cocoa Butter Cream.

Another popular & effective cream that you might wish to consider is Strivectin. It has a bioactive topical formula that has a combination of skin firming agents to reduce visible wrinkles and make skin appear firmer
