Maybe skin RF lazer treatment can heal a bit of stretch marks?

I've had stretch marks since I could remember, at least around 9 years old, I'm now 20 and I've lost about 70 pounds and the ones on my stomach are still pretty visible, but the ones on my arms have faded to a less noticeable colour. But, I think that's because they're old, as they're still clearly there.

I've had stretch marks since puberty, but this time I expect things to get worse since I've got over 100lbs to lose. The ones around the hips and upper thighs are already bad, but since I'm a middle aged woman not planning on wearing a bikini, I see them as part of my uniform.

I'm using a coffee body cream on them which smells nice and moisturises the skin nicely.

Stretch marks are skin tears from being to heavy so no it wont go away.

Stretch marks can form after weightloss so a little chubby fat is okay. Do have nice healthy workout regime. It can be as such that you are active just as trainers are with pets! I mean just do not think about strecth marks all day and read about some best dog trainers as I feel they are the happiest people with little worry. Have a dog and go out for walk, be healthy and not worry for stretch marks : https://bit.ly/best-dog-trainers - it gives such an active lifestyle feeling. Pets do take away worry

I know that stretch marks disappear only with laser or LED intervention or with different massages, not with losing weight. I have stretch marks too and I want to tatoo them )

Hello,

My stretch marks haven't gone away at all. They are still there. I accept them as they are

Unfortunately only by laser treatments and even then they might not completely go away. You should never be ashamed of your stretch marks. The best way to go about this is to maintain a heathy diet and a constant weight.
