theres creams to take care of the scars, and the strech marks. go to a drugs store and mayeb ask the pharmasist about it. they will show you things in the store you dont need a perscription for. other wise a dermatologist will have things for you.. have you tried coco butter ont he strech marks?

I have the same problem with my face my dermatologist gave me specific medicine to help get rid of the scars. I don't think there's anything you can put on your face that would make the scars go away. I'd go see a dermatologist, they know what's best for your face. And if you need coverage right away just use makeup.

There are creams marketed specifically to pregnant women that will help with stretch marks. They contain high concentrations of cocoa butter and shea butter, and they're available without a prescription. Or you could just find 100% pure cocoa butter and slather yourself in it. You'll smell great too.

For scars, look into a product called Mederma. It contains onion extract, which will help break down the collagen in the scars. Also use exfoliants to remove dead skin.

Hope this helps.

Cocoa butter helps reduce the appearance of scars and stretch marks. There are tons of lotions that contain cocoa butter, but they can be a little pricey. Also, they do not completely get rid of any scars or stretch marks, just fade them. You can never fully get rid of something like that without some sort of medical procedure. Stretch marks can sometimes completely fade on their own in time, but not always.
