Mederma For Stretch Marks???
Posted: 03-31-04 02:37am

Have ne of you tried the mederma cream for stretch marks and scars? I am getting them on my butt, thighs, and breasts and they look so ugly!!! Where have you gotten them, and what'd you do to get rid of them? Also have you guys started to get cellulite during pregnancy? My legs and butt are looking all lumpy and nasty!!! Sorry if this is too much info, but I need ideas to get rid of this crap. I still havnt had my baby, I got 8 weeks left, but I want to get rid of them now!!! So please help me out with ideas. I am using palmers lotion for s.M., vitamin e, and a cocoa butter stick, but it doesnt seems to be helping.

I havent heard of that, but there are alot of creams. And using them should be helping some. I have strechmarks on my boobs and some on my stomach, wait till I get bigger and im sure ill have way more! Lol now I have to use what you are using. I heard baby oil works too.

My grandma works in a gyne office, and I went there for an appt. I asked about mederma and he said that he doesnt recommend it, that it doesnt work well. I use palmers everyday and they are ligtening slowly but surely. Just look at it this way, stretch marks are the results of a beauty. They will heel over time. Oh and I tan once a week and that helps!!

I dont think anything will get rid of streach marks. The best thing you can do is gain weight gradually. The rest is heredity!
