hello!
I am extremely unhappy with my breasts. I developed groove looking stretch marks on my breasts as the result of breast-feeding my daughter. I like the fact that they are smaller than before but these marks are killing me! Will ANYTHING work??
Thanks!

I have them from puberty. They grew too fast. |

I meant that I like the fact my breasts are smaller than before-not the marks! I didn't get the red wiggly lines, I just got jagged looking grooves. So unfair. Maybe I should have just bottle-fed my daughter and avoided this. She is almost 11 months now. |

You may have still gotten them even if you bottle fed, so you can at least feel good you gave her a great nutritional start in life |

Breastfeeding is one of the best things you can do, Im amazed that you lasted so long, I was determined to do it for a year but after about 2 months my poor boobs just gave up! So I give you major kudos for that.
I have been doing this massage, that I read about on this website, on all my stretchmarks and have noticed AT LEAST a 50% reduction in color, texture, and depth.
It works, but its not an overnight process, it takes a few weeks to a few months to see full results, but with the great progress Ive seen Im pretty confident that they will eventually go away, mine were pretty bad, but some you can hardly see now!
If you dont have redness then it will probably work even faster. |

I have stretch marks like the one you have described on my legs. I think generally it's hard to completely get rid of stretch marks, especially once they are silvery white. I'd really love to find a way of getting rid of mine. |

actually, sagging of the breasts is due to the hormones of pregnancy, not breastfeeding. So I'm with Candy, wtg on nursing her! |

My breasts really aren't saggy just smaller. It's the stretch marks that are bothering me. I just started putting alphaderma CE on them hoping that maybe it'll do something! |

A friend of mine has had great success with Skinbiology's copper peptides with this kind of stretch marks. She had them on her breasts, tummy and thighs. She said they have faded a lot since using copper peptides. |

I was going to say that Stri-Vectin and copper peptides have helped my scars....I know this thread isn't about scars, but scars are very similar to stretch marks. Even the ones that need to be filled in. |

You may want to try Tamanu oil. It is suppose to be wonderful for scarring. |
