Sadly, stretch marks are something that cannot be prevented completely as they are caused by the hormones of pregnancy.. However, there are some steps that can be taken to reduce their severity. Exercise, before, durring, and after pregnancy. Use lotions to help skin retain its elasticity. Take vitamins, multi-vitamins, and specially vitamin E. Eat lots of vegatables and fruit. Drink nothing but water. Water's natural ability to help the body both heal and sustain will aid in avoiding stretch marks. At the drug store you can buy "mothers friend" It works wonders.

I purchased Trilastin SR with the hydro thermal accelerator (came with it) about a month ago. I'm telling YOU - it works. I'm 23, mother of one. My stretch marks are on my tummy and breast, the marks are about 6 years old. (pregnancy)… I have tried lots of things: Olive oil, coconut oil, micro-dermabrasion, loofah, shea butter, Bio-Oil, Palmer's….. none of these did much except give my skin moisture and greasy. With Trilastin, the product fully soaked INTO my skin instead of being on top. Immediately, I notice how soft my skin felt! WOW. In the first week you can see slight improvement! After one month I have seen dramatic decrease in the deepness of the stretch mark and they are fading quickly! I am SOOO happy and amazed. The bottle says to use it 2-3 times a day and I usually only use it once a day. (due to my laziness) and it has been well worth the money ($80) I recommend anyone use this stuff! I think I may start using it on my face to prevent aging. I plan to use this product for a very long time. Give it a try. There is a 60-day money back guarantee. I know that products work different for everyone, but at least you can send it back.

Make sure to use tons of lotion-this strengthens the skin's elasticity. Most people find cocoa butter lotions to work the best. Also make sure not to itch your belly. A good diet and exercise (OKed by your doctor) are also ways to keep your belly smaller, which means less stretch marks.

Vitamin E oil has shown to be effective for reduction in stretch marks. However, the sooner it is applied after stretch marks appear, the more effective it is. It tends to work best for stretch marks caused by pregnancy (as opposed to obesity).

For additional information on stretchmarks removal options, check the links under the Sources and related links section below.

Any kind of lotion that you prefer... most women tend to lean more towards cocoa butter since it is very safe and not greasy. They have an actual lotion for pregnant women to help fight stretch marks and it is made with cocoa butter...

The best thing you can do is to use either cocoa butter or coconut oil (yes, coconut oil). Once a day, apply cocoa butter or coconut oil to your belly and anywhere else where you may be prone to stretch marks. This really does help alleviate the severity of stretch marks.
