stretchmarks

NY Chick · Jun 22nd, 2008, 03:19 AM

Do men really hate the look of stretchmarks? I have them on my calves. I dont' like wearing shorts bc i feel very bad about myself. Im pretty petite. I think i got them when i was in high school --puberty and what not.

I have tried everything (creams to fade them),no luck. I know you can't get rid of them.

Im caramel complexion and the stretchmarks are a silver - like color (old). does anyone know of any kind of solution to make the stretchmark look closer to my natural skin color.

there is no way really to get rid of them. i was going to suggest tanning, it seems to help them not be so noticeable. i have them on my tummy and thighs...gaining 50 lbs while being preggers SUCKS! and i used all the creams.

@ all those creams that said they worked....LOL. good luck, i'll be checking back to see if someone has the miracle cure

I think any man that doesn't like you because you have stretchmarks doesn't deserve you!

In all seriousness, you notice them far more than anyone else every will. I have some large scars which I get paranoid about, but I just have to remind myself that nobody is as critical of myself as I am.

have you tried these creams, look honestly never had tried them i have stretchmarks but im willing to cuz of persons close to me have used them and I PERSONALLY noticed the difference, thing is that mines are in the white phase already, my aunt and my friend are the ones that have used this cremes both are different but i noticed they fade though some still remained there, so i kno its not gonna totally take them away, havent ask them again how is it going.
my friend used this :

*** i honestly never trust the reviews on websites if they are real its ok but i just like to not read them and try it by myself, i just check reviews in movies! lol but sometimes this dont work either. ***
*** i saw the difference in my friends love handles area she had some long ones in red color and thick white lines, the red colored ones arent there anymore but they didnt become white either! so that kinda surprised me, the white lines are just thiner didnt washed them off, but then again maybe mee seeing the long red oneas and white lines together made me think she had plenty but now with the absence of the red ones maybe the white lines remained the same!! soo still idk!

well next debutant its my aunts with this :

my aunt bought it in the states on a trip, she had some by her leg/hip area thing is here there were no red ones just white fine lines and look very short, i honestly saw the difference so much i want to buy it but i dont like the price i dont wanna buy it and then just feel frustrated cuz it doesnt work! hers faded away a lil but dont know if they were removed!!
I honestly cant tell you these are effective, ive been wanting to get either of these but i havent had the chance, i want to try with the cheaper one first cuz its available in my country and second cuz its cheaper!
im just givin my opinion, not really saying that these creams removeee them, have not witness it! so ilovepink hearts still no miracle treatment!! :( yyy scientistss! yyyy!!
