So there are alot of collagen products out there that reduce fine lines a wrinkles. But, do you think they work on stretch marks? Its the same concept right? Your filling in indentations. Has anyone tried anything like this with sucess?

I don't think so, getting rid of stretch marks is not that easy , in my experience excersice is the only thing that had helped

Collagen cannot penetrate until the dermis where the wrinkles and stretch marks occur. So basically any product containing collagen is useless. You need to get your body to produce its own collagen in the dermis, this can be done using retin-A and copper peptides but has to be done long term and may still not have a great effect.

Do I have to buy them both through the dr? I have gotten retin-a from a dr before, but had so much redness and tenderness using it, I stopped. Can I get either of them OTC?

I have been getting these massages called lyposage. It's where it gets rid of the cellulite. I didn't think it would work all that well in the beginning but they DEFINITELY work! I have no noticeable cellulite at all and I didn't realize this was a benefit but my stretch marks are just barely visible now. :bouncing:
