Stretch marks .. anyone else?help ?

I according to the dermatologist I've previously visited says I do not have very elastic skin.... First when I was 15 I ha a growth spurt and shot up in height and I got stretch marks on my sides and my insides of my quads ... Doc said about lotions and so on... I've lathered up with lotion for I bet a year straight .. And it didn't help. Then I started lifting and started to get then on my lats and inside my legs, armpit where bi meets chest.... Then started really taking it serious and 7 years later I look like a damn human candy cane lol... Have then from bicep to half way across my chest, a little above on my front delts...a few inch down each side of my lats, inside legs into groin area.. It's such a eye sore... It just sucks putting in the work at the gym and not wanting to even take my shirt off cuz the damn marks all over.... Lotion hasn't worked.. I do tan which helps hide em a little bit.. Does anyone else have this problem? Does anyone else know what to do about them?? All I've heard about if laser removal...

Ive used cocoa butter and baby oil on mine helped them to slightly go away over time but now I loke to think of them markers for my accomplishments.

My girl is always looking for cures. You can Barley see hers but they are huge to her. So I'd like to know if there's something that helps too.

This^

Cocoa butter makes them fade a little from having the dark color to them

i have them on the inside of my quads as well also have them by my armpits where my arms meet my chest. never tried to get rid of them and never cared lol so idk what would work

when you put whatever cream you use on try to leave some behind. what I mean is if you keep rubbing in it well you're rubbing most of it off. leave it kind of thick and get better results.

My wife and I had twins. So needless to say she got them pretty bad. We heard cocoa butter helps during the pregnancy to keep them from forming but not sure about after they are already there. That shea stuff might help. Anything that helps with scar tissue. Also don't get tan lol it makes them stick out way worse

Some people just get them, and some dont. It is all about the elasticity in your skin. I gained 55lbs when I had my first daughter and didnt get one stretch mark. If you have them there is not anything to make them go awaybut things may help hide them. Of sourse if you tan, they will only look more pronounced. Put some organic coconut oil onthem. I have been using that for everything lately,lol.

here are some good natural tips:

One more thing, if you dont exfoliate your skin, frequently, no amount of moisturizer will help soften the skin. The dead skin needs to be removed to absorb the product and work effectively
