I've tried all creams to get rid of my stretchmarks and nothing seems to work. I'm really considering laser, has anybody tried it? results? |

How bad are they; what colour, how deep, how prevalent, how long have you had them? |

My experience has been that with the newer marks, you can have some sucess with lasers, but the treatments are expensive and you need a series of 5-6 to see any results at all. If the stretchmarks are older and whitish then there is not really much out there, unfortunately. I have heard some woman have had limited sucess using mederma, have you tried that? |

I'm using Helichrysum oil on my stretch marks. I mix it with jojoba oil and will try mixing it with argan or camellia or both when I receive them. I think Helichrysum is amazing. It is the first thing I tried (and trust me! I tried a lot of things including Strivectin SD) that I feel it would work for me. Maybe you should give this a try. You can buy a small size from Nanda Oils. I did, but then it was not enough, so I bought it on Ebay. I haven't received my new Helichrysum on ebay yet, but if you want I can email you what I think of the ebay one after I got it.
Mederma did nothing for me. I still have half a tube of it in my bathroom. |

Yours sound just like mine. I took pics after a few days of using helichrysum and will take more pics when I've used it for a month or so. I'll share my results with EDS members. I think this oil is awesome. Are they on your tummy? |
