What do you do about stretch marks?

Hey guys,

I've had personal struggles with weight as it seems to reflect upon what i think of myself and so forth.

but as a result of having problems with weight, i've gotten stretch marks out of the deal. Perhaps this is a chick question, but i don't like looking in the mirror and seeing all these lines from where my skin stretched. It's just unattractive looking like, no offense, a bad rash is.

Anyone know of anything one can do to help fix, repair or hide stretch marks?

Cocoa butter, Vitamin E and sun all help.

No problem..

I knew about Vitamin E, but I got the other info from this site: http://www.wannabebigforums.com/search.php?searchid=327444

Theres a ton of other info there about stretch marks also.

Stretch marks are cool if you are growing, they are a sign of progress

Do a search for stretch marks under the general health forum.

The search results page must have timed out.

i got several stretch marks on the middle of my back. i talked to the derm and she said that only time will help it significantly. other methods may help a bit, but won't make them dissapear completely. they may take up to few years to go away, so be patient.
