It is about 10 bucks at the drugstore and it works great! it wont make the stretch marks go away but can hide them very well. rita 06-11-2004, 08:06 PM This is embarressing but i really wanna know how to get rid of them or make em less visable.

The best you can hope for is to cover them up with special make up for legs. IcyDestiny 06-12-2004, 12:07 AM Nothing exists that gets rid of stretch marks. Nothing. The best you can hope for is to cover them up with special make up for legs. Are you sure... Cause they have lazor technology stuff but thats expensive and im too young for that... Dang I hate them so much. Wasnt there a type of vitamin that you could use? I put lotion on them after everytime i take a shower. rita 06-12-2004, 12:48 AM Are you sure... Cause they have lazor technology stuff but thats expensive and im too young for that... Dang I hate them so much. Wasnt there a type of vitamin that you could use? I put lotion on them after everytime i take a shower. Yes, I am sure. The laser technology of which you speak is called Relume and it does indeed help with stretch marks (once they turn white) but it doesn't get rid of them completely and it requires continuous maintenance treatments so it is not a permanent solution but a temporary fix. The treatments are also very expensive. The vitamin you mention is probably Vitamin E or K and neither does anything for stretch marks. As I said before, there is really nothing that gets rid of them. Best solution is to cover them up cosmetically. It's fast, easy and inexpensive. IcyDestiny 06-12-2004, 01:13 PM How depressing... I wasnt even fat to begin with! Well thanks people for your knowledge of this matter. They have turened white too, maybe ill try the sally hanson stuff.. Im watching too much of Extreme Makeover cause they make it look so easy with the lazor, it almost seems like it disappears. :P SweetPuff 06-12-2004, 01:22 PM I could be completely wrong, but there is a new therapy for acne called Blue Light which I'm thinking is supposed to help stretch marks also??? Dermablend is a good makeup for them.

Dermablend is a good makeup for them. Oh really? Is it something you buy or do you have to have it done? SweetPuff 06-13-2004, 11:08 AM The blue light therapy is done in the dermatologist office. That's about all I know about it, but you can probably search it online. Dermablend you can find at a major dept store. alleycat 06-14-2004, 10:49 PM This is embarressing but i really wanna know how to get rid of them or make em less visable. I got them during my growing stage and theyve been on my knees and (what u sit on) ever since!! Please help :o I think they make lightning creams to make them less visable. rita 06-14-2004, 10:55 PM I think they make lightning creams to make them less visable. No cream can lighten stretch marks. The "lightening" or "whitening" happens naturally over a period of time. So far there is really nothing that works to remove stretch marks although some procedures offer hope of reducing their visibility by encouraging pigmenation in the "whiter" areas. These procedures are expensive and require ongoing treatment to maintain the results. There is nothing that removes these marks permanently. Maybe someday... IcyDestiny 06-17-2004, 06:01 PM I saw the Sally Hanson leg spray stuff on sale for like $12 a bottle. I might get it when I have the use for it. Especially during the summer time lee&jason 06-18-2004, 03:45 PM I have a suggestion but I was wondering if I would get banned if I named it? IcyDestiny 06-18-2004, 05:57 PM I have a suggestion but I was wondering if I would get banned if I named it? Why... what is it? I doubt youd get banned for posting something related to a subject like this haha. lee&jason 06-18-2004, 08:50 PM I have been banned before on the here in the dental section for mentioning a name of a company...Mederma is suppost to help scars and stretch mark.. It costs about 25 dollars a tube.. xvegasdancerx 06-19-2004, 02:45 PM I use Palmers Shea Butter Formula especially for streach marks, you can buy this product for about $3.00 at walmart or just about anywhere.
