Question

I dont want any answers on how sunbeds can cause cancer, im old enough to make my own mind up weather or not to use them.

Answer 1

Nothing other than surgery will eliminate stretch marks/vericose veins.

Mine get less noticeable when I tan, but everyone tans differently.

Answer 2

they make some of them fade but they dont make them disappear completly

Answer 3

no

Answer 4

Stretch marks fade to a natural colour with time. Sunbeds will not affect them because they don't tan.  

All a sunbed would do is make your skin darker, possibly making the difference between the colour of your skin and the stretch marks less noticeable.  Although, this will be so slight, it's hardly worth the effort.

Just be patient and let nature take its course.

Answer 5

no they just create more skin problems...if you wanna get rid of stretch marks use cocoa butter or bio oil...and if you wanna avoid other skin problems dont tan!

Answer 6

no

Answer 7

NO, stretch marks DONT tan , they are like scars they dont tan. so dont bother, they will probably stick out more.  

Answer 8

i had some nasty scars on my face, and the surgeon advised me to use vitamin e cream. they faded really well and you can hardly see them now. so maybe you could give it a try.

Answer 9

I am male and only can tell from my wife. Her marks improved with time.  I suggest you save your money on the creams, if you are using special tretchmark creams.  I think any natural cream with the least chemical additives will do.  

Answer 10

Hello,

I don't think so. But if you have stretch marks you could try using vitamin e oil or try some bio-oil.

Hope i helped you out  

Answer 11

Unfortunately no they don't.

Depending on your skin the stretch marks might tan so they will go a darker more brown colour.

If you want to get rid of stretch marks you should try bio oil or palmers coco butter.  They both work but it will take about 4 weeks of regular use before you see major change.

Answer 12

hiya a sunbed will make it worse,use bio oil. its great you can get it from super markets or super drug.x
