My legs are really thin, but I have streach marks at the very top. Nobody can see them but me. But they still really bother me. And I told my mom, and asked her if I could get some cream stuff, and she said no. What should I do?

Stretch marks are a normal part of puberty for most girls and guys. When a person grows or gains weight really quickly (like during puberty), that person may get fine lines on the body called stretch marks. Stretch marks happen when the tissue under the skin is pulled by rapid growth or stretching. Although the skin is usually fairly elastic, when it's overstretched, the normal production of collagen (the major protein that makes up the connective tissue in your skin) is disrupted. As a result, scars called stretch marks may form.

& Don`t worry , it`s just a part of puberty , it`ll fade away! Good Luck! ♥
