I have another method from [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) I ever used and it really works. I almost give up on my stretch marks and I ever thought that stretch marks are something i can not get rid of. But after I tried their method, I only can do their method at home without spending so much money for buying some cream. It amazingly works!

I'm sorry. I understand how you feel. It sucks. Unfortunately the only way to get rid of stretch marks is surgically, which is extremely expensive. I got stretch marks on my thighs from pregnancy and I felt so ugly because of them. I hated looking at my legs in the mirror. Now four years later you can only see them if you are looking for them. It takes about 2 years for the color to fade all the way. There isn't really a way to speed up the process aside from oils, lotions and creams. I bought a cocoa butter lotion from bath and body works which was a little more expensive but it was worth it. They have a ton of lotions at wal mart though that are probably just as good for under $10. ANy type of lotion helps though. To prevent more from appearing use lotion (doesn't have to be for stretch marks) or baby oil on your thighs, butt and stomach daily. I hope this helps. Good Luck.
Love, Tandra
ps. How am I doing? If you would like, I would appreciate feedback. I am new to the site. Thanks. :)

Cocoa butter will be your best bet. Any lotion that contains cocoa butter. This will only help to fade them. You cannot get rid of them completely. Stretch marks are damaged skin that cannot be repaired. They are similar to scars.

I heard "bio-oil" works really well.
I have extremely bad stretch marks, I just started using the product and it takes three months to start seeing results(I think that's what the instructions say).
It's not very expensive only about 15 dollars for a small bottle which isn't all that small and you can pretty much get it at any drug store, not behind the counter either.
If you're really concerned you can go to your doctor about a cream that works even better and if you have medical I think it would be covered on that, not a hundred percent sure.

Hey, I have had really, really bad stretch marks on my thigs, and all around my hips from my growth spurt. I couldn't afford to buy any expensive products either. So I was asking around and someone told me to put normal lotion on my stretch marks it every night. I have been putting it on my stretch marks for about a month and a half and they have been clearing up, they have faded quiet a bit. And Im sure it would do the same for you good luck!
