Default Stretch marks on face

Now that I am losing weight in my face, It looks like I have scars on my jaw line. One person ask me "what happened to your face?" some people cant believe I have stretch marks on my face. Will they go away?

I have never seen or known anyone with stretch marks on their face. If they are like stretch marks on my tummy and hips they don't ever go away but do fade with time. Are you able to cover them with make-up or a bronzer maybe? Mine are sort of translucent/white in color. Post a pic if you are able.

Red face

Aw so sorry to hear thatstreach marks are a pain in the *** , when there under our clothes never mind visible to people.
I put a post on here last week as recently i purchased a product called rescue oil and have been using it on my strech marks which were bright redish pink less than 2 weeks ago and now after using it twice daily they are fading considerably faster than they wud if i left it to time ...........they have now gone a light orange colour its amazing how fast it has worked. Even my boyfriend was saying he can hardly notice them as much
Im from the uk , but i got it on ebay where u can pick it up cheap.
Also for a instant cover up whilst ya treating them , look for a tinted moistourisor or foundation that is designed to cover scars . This will disgise them untill they fade .

Good look in finding a treatment that works for you , i know that stretch marks can really be a down fall to weightloss

Sorry to hear that but I'm sure you can greatly reduce their appearance. As others have said, use lotions and/or oils and with time they will fade some. A little makeup and you should be good to go.
