Has anyone ever used a stretch mark cream that is supposed to help lighten existing stretch marks? If so, what was it and how well did it work?

Mary Kay Visably Fit Body Lotion worked MIRACLES for one of my girlfriends. You can't even see them anymore.

Strivectin cream worked well for me. However, I can still see them, they just look TONS better!! You can order it online. I might try the Mary Kay stuff though.

Mags you are a freak of nature. LOL Just kidding! I put on stretchmark cream from the day i found out (four weeks), twice a day until birth and from 34 weeks i got absolutely COVERED in them!! My belly is an absolute wreck now and will never be allowed to see the light of day again.

i didnt get them either. i was waiting forever to see them thinking it was a sure thing. every time my midwife would visit she would put her hands up in the air and say "where are the marks??" i delivered my baby without a mark. now if i can just lose the weight...

i have the stretch marks on my thighs all the way to my knees, my hips, my stomach and b___bs. I even used the cocoa b___ter stuff, but nothing helped. Its not like i gained a ton either, i dont know why i got covered. im only 2 weeks pp and i was wondering how long it would be before they start to fade on their own (or if they do)

Okay, so i dont really have any helpful info for you becuase i used palmers cocoa b___ter stretch mark cream from the day i put on a pound until now...almost 37 weeks pregnant and COVERED in stretchmarks in an almost perfect circular formation around my belly b___ton, and i've put on the minimum amount of weight. Everyone i know says i'm tiny for being pregnant but my stretchmarks tell another tale. Now i'm being absolutely plagued by these stories telling me that my stomach is going to be a baggy, saggy, wrinkly mess....im only 19...and would like to think that i could wear a skin tight shirt again...is this true, will i have a really saggy tummy after only putting on 25 lbs?...i'm so worried about it it's all i think....plus has anyone heard anything about putting castor oil on stretch marks, i've heard it works wonders

Thanks for the replies. I think I'll start with the Mary Kay Stuff. I know they will never go away, but I'll just be happy to get rid of the wrinkled look. expecting...I know what you mean. I gained about 33 lbs, and I didn't see one stretch mark until about 37 weeks...now I have stretching all over my lower abdomen. I used Cocoa B___ter ever since I started getting a tiny bulge. Maybe it would have been worse if I didn't use that!

I have new unopened Evederm Stretchmark cream which works amazing on stretchmarks. Anyone who wants it can contact me, I'll give it away for much less than I bought it. I don't need it anymore, and will not be having anymore kids anytime soon so I don't forsee using them, they do work on wrinkles though.... Anyway I will offer them if anyone wans them .
