Strech Marks!

[ShiftFMX]

Well some of you guys that lift weights may be in the same boat as me. I went thru a phase where I was lifting like crazy, and dont get me wrong, I got some pretty good muscle, but I also got some pretty nasty strech marks on my arms. Have you guys heard anything, or tryed anything that has worked for you to make them mostly go away? Help me out guys!

cocobutter, women use it on their stomachs when going thru pregnecy :)

Rub Shea butter on them every day. They'll dissapear.

Yeah, I heard that just prevents them, not treats them...:confused:

But i'll try!

Be there forever homey. They might look better when you get a tan or may fade as the years go by... stretch marks are scars. They don't just go away.

Yeah, I got em a lil too. Cocoa butter hides em, but if you don't use it alot, they come back.

Coco butter doesn't work. It just more gets rid of the itching that goes along with pregnancy. Good thing I only have 4 days till my due date.

lol, do I not want to see them?

[HondaRancherES]

I don't have none or else I would.

Cocoa butter and vitamin E oil are good for prevention. Retin A and Tretinoin 0.1% are good for getting rid of them.
