| I'm a young girl but about two years ago my breasts got really big. Now I have streatch marks on them. I'm not a big person but I hate wearing bathing suite's and other clothes because of these ugly marks.I have no idea of what to use, to make them go away. Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

| You may want to consider having microdermabrasion services. First, however, try a product such as Decleor's Tonelastil Creme, which will help fade the imperfections. |

You can try these things based on budget.
*Cocoa or unrefined shae butter--my sister applied during her pregnancy and it really did work. Her doct said it waw the massaging action rather than the product that helps rid stretch marks much like with cellulite.
**Vitamin E--you can get the gel tablets (I've used on scars it actually helped reduce the visibility but not rid completely.
***Alpha-hydroxy-acids - These acids encourage lightening of the skin and some deposition of collagen.
****Retin A - Retin A may help fade the color of pigmented stretch marks when used at .1% on newer marks. (I'm going to try this myself saw on another site)
***** For permanent removal using laser at dermatologist office. Required 3 to 5 treatments, with mild bruising and swelling, the marks should significantly improve, if not disappear completely. However, each treatment cost about $400. |

If they are not yet faded, I agree with queenbluebee about the Vitamin E and the Cocoa Butter. Time helps more than anything, they WILL fade.
If they are faded, using a self-tanner will really help disguise them. Unfortunately getting a real tan makes them more noticeable! |

| Does anyone know whether laser treatment reduces the depression and ridge effects of stretch marks on skin texture, or does it just reduce the colour of them? |
