Hi, I'm new to this site. I'm just wanting advice on how to get rid of stretch marks. I REALLY hate mine and some are still purplish and was wondering if anyone has used mederma? If so, did it work? I've heard there's some herbal creams that are good. I'm been using collagen elastin lotion and it doesn't seem to help prevent them or make them less noticeable. Thanks all!

From what I've read, there's nothing that can be done without lasers or surgery. Time makes them less noticeable, if that's any consolation. Regardless - welcome to the boards!

I don't know about the use of Mederma and stretch marks, but I know it didn't do a thing for a small surgical scar I had.
