    I had the same problem... Easiest solution was to just get fat again. They are almost completely gone!

    You'll probably get it in Boots mate or maybe your local pharmacist.

    Dude I've got stretch marks around my armpits and I've recently noticed them down by my crotch. I think I even started a thread here asking for help like a year or two ago. I'll tell you this much, as time passes, they don't go away, but they become less noticable. I've tried the vitamin E lotions and tons of other OTC remedies and they give temporary help, but in the end it's just time that's going to make them fade a bit.

    Am I the only one that likes strecth marrks???

    I guess it depends on where you stretch marks are. Like mine are in the inside of my chest and I would never want to get rid of them

    Sign of success!!

    ....put on a shirt.

    My mom worked at a dermatologist office and the lasers only really work if the stretch marks are fresh. And even then they aren't great.

    Solution: wear then with pride.

    I love when people comment on mine

    Putting a shirt on defeats the object of working hard to get a good body, does'nt it? Lol

    Does this really work?

    It worked for me, had some ugly ones on my upper left arm/armpit area and about 50 tiny ones on my bicep and when I got my sleeve they were covered up nicely. The big ugly ones look like they were just regular scars (but not very noticeable now) and the small ones actually kinda messed with the shading my artist did and made the tattoo look even better.


    Keep in mind if you wanna go this route you gotta get a top level artist who does excellent work. I'm $2,100 into this 3/4 sleeve and I'll be putting in at least another $600 before its done.
