There is a selection of stretch mark creams in pretty much every drug store in North America. These range from 10-40 dollars a bottle, but the most expensive ones are not always the best ones. I found that anything with a lot of vitamin E is the most effective, so just look for one of those.
Anyways, other than that, stretch marks DO fade with time. I benefited from the creams and my stretch marks were almost gone, when I switched birth controls, increased a cup size and got brand new ones. At this point I was so frustrated with trying to 'fix' my body that I stopped using the creams and just decided to accept it for what it was. Anyways, it has been a year and a half since and my stretch marks have faded so much that you really can't see them unless you're looking pretty hard. Unlike scars, which are much deeper, as your body sheds old tissue and new skin emerges, your stretch marks will eventually disapear. But if you don't wanna wait, definately look into the creams.
I know you probably aren't concerned about it at this age, but for future referrence, no guy is every going to be put off by stretch marks. A few lines are hardly going to distract them from the fact that they're seeing some breasts! Your body is beautiful regardless. [ Hustle_Rose's advice column | Ask Hustle_Rose A Question ]
