I've never tried any of the products out there but I saw strivectin at GNC the other day I think thats supposed to work on strech marks. It wasn't cheap though, about 60.00.
Are your strech marks old or fairly new? I'm only asking because I've had some pretty nasty ones myself, they really diminished over a few years time on their own. They made a reappearance after my hysterectomy, I was soooooo swollen, felt like a hot air balloon ready to burst. But they diminished too after a couple years.
Hope you can find what your looking for.

Hi vic- Welcome. Although you cannot erase stretch marks without surgery, you can diminish their appearance. Just like MIchelle said, time will lessen their appearance but Vitamin E oil will too. This works best for new stretch marks. Don't bother with the store creams and potions- if they worked NOONE would have stretch marks- especially rich people. Most of the store "miracles in a jar" contain Vitamin E, collagen and elastin, and other oils that make the skin more supple, therefore decreasing the visibility of the marks. Why pay a bundle for fillers and oils- just buy either Vitamin E oil or capsules. Just rub on the stretch marks daily. Hope this helps! :hijump:

NATURAL shea butter is my suggestion as well.

Time has helped my marks fade also.

A cocoa Butter stick that you can buy at a drug store will diminish but not get rid of Stretch marks... Best of Luck to you.
