Stretch Marks
My skin stays very tight to my body, which is great when i cut down (my skin doesn't get loose are hang at all)
the only drawback is i get stretch marks (especially from my outter chest, through my armpit and onto my bi)
i thought you usually got them if you grow too fast, i'm not that big of a guy
( 190 pounds about 16% body fat)
is there anything i can do for this? Creams, lotions, supplements.
sometimes i even very small ones during a workout.
Thanks
Sal

cocoa butter ; can get it at walmart or any health food store; i have all my pregnant patients use it to prevent them.

Ive used cocoa butter and had GREAT results, but Justin Sane has explained that Maderma Gel is the shiznit. I havent used it, but if the stretch marks come back, ill be sure to jump on it!

IMO do the coco butter or vitamin e thingy right after you get out of the shower.

Im totally serious..I can already see them fading a tad bit. No joke..maybe they fade naturally and brighten day to day..but they have def. faded since I started it.

I have some on my back and I tried Mederma for 6 months straight with no luck. I'm sure if that didn't phase them, vit e and cocoa butter won't do a damn thing
-
12-03-2005, 09:05 PM #23
yup..ur right. If maderma doesnt work for me...nuthins gonna work

If your aren't too old, it wouldn't hurt to use everything you can. The ones I was trying to get rid of are around 10 years old. I really didn't think mederma would do much.

Just be quicker to wipe up the mess after you spank it - that shit will dry the crap out of your skin.
Sorry, couldn't resist.
Seriously - lots more water, if it hasn't already been said.

Mederma/cocoa butter has actually worked for me quite nicely. They are stilll there but MUCH less noticeable. They have brightened a tad bit lately cuz Ive gotten a lil lazy. Apply 3-4 times a day and started seeing GOOD results within a month.

i had a scar on my neck and face, if i put the vit e on it was good,if i slacked, it got worse, be consistent and keep putting it on even if it doesn't see, like it is helping rt away

I keep stretching the same dam* stretch marks. One is from my right pec to half of my bicep. They have a blue'sh tint to them, and they hurt like hell. I've tried vit-e/and cocca butter and nothing worked for me. Is there any other alternatives besides mederma? (Going to buy some)
-

best advice is to keep putting on the vitamin e , it takes at least a year to see real good results,
