    How to get rid of stretch marks?

    I've had stretch marks on my arms for a while now an I really want to get ri of them. I'm 99% sure they're from growth as I am a teenager an tend to have growth spurts. Help is much appreciated.

    I have stretch marks too for some reason and I have never been fat or anything--always skinny. You will never get rid of them. If you're self-conscious about it, pass gas and be self conscious about that or something else

    The best way to get rid of stretch marks- to not have them. Unfortunately the buggers are really hard to get rid of. Several things help:
    Moisturize daily
    Use self-tanner to minimize the appearance
    If it's in a small area, or the marks are new, try Mederma. You must use it 3-4 times a day on the area for about 2months. For older marks you may have to use it longer. It does work though, it just takes forever and you have to be very diligent.
    Wait- time will allow your stretch marks to fade.

    The brand Palmer's make some cream for stretch marks, that helps them fade. I would suggest that.

    to be honest with you there isn't anything that can get rid of it as it is stretched skin. The only thing you can do is try toning it that way it looks tighter and not as loose. hope this helps
