    Hi ,
    I have always had pretty bad stretch marks around my belly region ever since I gave birth to my three kids.I had tried Vitamin E oil and cocoa butter which a number of people had recommended but it didn't seem to work. My Doctor had even suggested a Tummy Tuck. I then recently read an article about a lady who supposedly got rid of her stretch marks using a particular cream. I tried it and it worked really well. My stretch marks disappeared in 3 weeks. Just thought I would share this with everyone. You can read  the lady's article at the link below.

    Hi ,

    I  always had pretty bad stretch marks and red scars around my belly region and abdomen ever since I gave birth to my three kids.I had tried Vitamin E oil and cocoa butter which a number of people had recommended but it didn't seem to work. My Doctor had even suggested a Tummy Tuck. I then recently read an article about a lady who supposedly got rid of her stretch marks using a particular cream. I tried it and it worked really well. Within 4 weeks my stretch marks were very much faded and they soon disappeared You can read more about the lady's article at the link below.

    I just had twins three months ago and I had been trying different creams through out my pregnancy trying to prevent stretch marks as much as possible.  By the sixth month my stomach looked horrifying.  I went full term and gained 85 lbs so my stomach was incredibly big.  I ended up with stretch marks all over my stomach.

    There is a new cream from AVON that I tried and I was very impressed with the results.  It's a 15 day treatment and it's very, very affordable.  Worth trying! I was very impressed with the results.  I showed result by the second day and stretch marks are almost gone.

    My doctor provided me with a new medicine called Post-Grav Serum.  She told me this medicine is only available from the Ob/Gyn (not the drug stores), and it cost about $100 per month.  She had me use it for seven months.  I had very large red stretch marks and they are almost completely gone.  My doctor told me another alternative was laser therapy but it would have cost a few thousand dollars.
