ok… I’m writing this blog for all thoes who feel insicure about their stretch marks and scars (including me)… heehee. Ok so MOST women and men have and get them either from growth (spontaniously) or from babies (women only). Trust me I have my share on me too. My abdomin, hips, some on thighs and my buttocks… oh can’t forget my breasts (spontanious growth as i was growing). It’s completely normal and you can still look great sporting a two piece. There are definit way to minimize them but don’t be fooled, stretch marks don’t go away miracalously unless you cut them out. That’s right ladies you must go under the knife to compleatly earase them from your body. Don’t buy any gimmick that promisses them gone forever. When pregnant I had tried everything under the sun…. EVERYTHING… coco butter, shea butter, olive oil, moister crap, vitamine E, lanoline, butter (yes… i… did)… Trust me it’s genetic. There is no proven way to change the elasticity in your skin. You are either born to stretch without scaring or your not…period. As far as surgery goes… to each their own. Scars CAN be reduced by topical oitments but remember that stretch marks; although, ther are a TYPE of scar, are diffrent from scraps and cut (including surgical). They are at a diffrent level of the dermis and are harder to fade with creams/oils/lotions. Tannig does not minimize their appearance because the skin is damaged it cannot tan, it lost the pigment (stretch marks). Now about lazers you can have a SIGNIFICANT improuvement in the APPEARANCE of the scar or stretch mark BUT IT DOEASN’T MAKE THEM GO AWAY.

Bottom Line

FOR WOMEN: Most men don’t care

FOR MEN: most women don’t care

It’s all in your head and in mine as well

Pls. if there are any of you who compete and have stretch marks i would love to hear from you and how well you did in compitition.

Thanks to all xoxo
