    Default great cream for stretch marks!!!

    Girls-
    I have been reading many posts out there and it seems like a lot of you have complaints about stretch marks. I am 6 ft. tall and have had stretch marks around my butt and back thigh area since I was 16 from a growth spurt . I bought Stri-Vectin and have been using it for like 3 mo. now maybe once a week (I am very lazy about application and do it like twice a week) but they are almost gone!!!!!
    Unfortunately it is too greasy for my face since they say it also helps w/ skin tone and prevents wrinkles.

    Yes, Stri-Vectin works on older sretch marks- as I said I had mine since I was 16, and mine were white. You can purchase it at most higher -end department stores as well as beauty stores like Ulta and Sephora. If these are not an option, I am sure you can buy it from an internet website.

    God bless this post. I have a few from when I was still really heavy and lost weight quickly from when I was a young teen/tween. Though they lost the ugly pigment, I can't seem to get rid of the total overall scaring. xo!

    it definitely depends on the severity of the stretch marks. i brought strivectin 2 years agao. i used it on my stretch marks (i have a few on my stomach and butt from my pregnancy)... no noticeable changes. i think they were too deep. however, i will admit that i did not use on a daily basis. i would forget to use for weeks.

    I read about this cream on another forum. Ladies said it was a total waste.

    But alot of girls here seem thrilled with this cream.

    I tried it as well, on my stomache and thighs, the ones on my tummy are deep and light in color, the ones on my thighs are high up, shallow and white. It helped my thigh ones a little bit, and did nothing for my stomache.

    I have been using pure cocoa butter lotion religiously for a long while now and that seems to be helping them the most, along with exfoliating and drinking lots of water.

    The Stri-V is good stuff, but I think it really depends on the condition of your skin. My skin scars easily and they stick around for a long while....so repairing isn't an easy thing. But for women who don't scar easily, and have great elasticity allready, then it could do wonders I bet!
