Step 1
Before deciding on a stretch mark removal treatment, consider the location and thickness. Stretch marks on the buttocks may be more acceptable than on the arms since short-sleeved shirts and dresses are worn and this may create shame for the wearer.
-
Step 2
Home care: Massage vitamin C fluid or vitamin E oil onto moist skin after a shower. Foods to enjoy for healthy skin includes fruits (citrus), vegetables (carrots), milk, and protein (chicken, tuna, and turkey).
-
Step 3
Medications: Presciption retinoids may be used for curing stretch marks. This medication is monitored by a physician to ensure proper use and treatment. A doctor would check for any possible drug reactions including redness.
-
Step 4
Over the counter medications: Creams and lotions may be used by those with stretch marks. Speak with your doctor to recommend the best cream/lotion since some provide better treatment than others. Plus, consider the costs for the cream/lotion and how long you have to use it before you see results.
-
Step 5
Surgeries: Specific skin portions are removed and the remaining skin is tightly pulled together. However, a plastic surgeon would perform a detailed patient interview concerning medical history and the likelihood of recurring stretch marks.
