What is a good way to get rid of old stretch marks?
I have old stretch marks, they are colourless and more like scars now. Can anyone give me tips on how to get rid of them before the next bikini season?.

You should try a product called Mederma. The web site i went to said it works on stretch marks no matter how old or how deep they are.

I would try the butter creams, look online for Stretch mark creams. If that doesnt work maybe a dermatoligist could help not positive though but be prepared to spend a good amount of money. Cosmetic surgery has scar laser removals I think but that is also very expensive. Good luck.

Hey, i used to have stretch marks too and I used everything like cocoa butter, vitamin E, etc. Yes, these things are great for the skin, but they can’t get rid of your stretch marks alone. Creams are useful but don’t waste your money on them if you plan on just applying them and expecting them to disappear. The three keys to getting rid of stretch marks are getting rid of dead skin cells, replacing them with new ones, and exfoliating and moisturizing the skin. By applying the cremes, you are only knocking out one of the three keys to getting rid of stretch marks. What about the other two? You need to exfoliate and massage that area daily to help new skin replace old damaged skin. Here’s a guide on how to do it. If you do it consistently stretch marks will be gone in 3-4 months:

To help reduce the appearance of existing stretch marks, you should use a proven and effective stretch mark cream. Stretch mark creams work by increasing the elasticity of your skin and by stimulating the production of new skin cells.

I have been using perfer on for the same situation I found that any scar remover that you can buy at CVS works best. Don’t waist your time with coco butter, for some reason everyone that I know never has good luck with it. Also, hit a tanning bed before bikini season and it should blend them in more. Good Luck!
