Brief Answer:
Stretch mark..take treatment

Detailed Answer:
Hi

I have seen the attached picture.
Stretch marks usually tend to fade out over time.
You should avoid rubbing or scratching the area.
Apply a topical retinoic acid 0.025% cream over the affected area at night daily. Apply a vaseline based moisturising lotion over the area in morning.
The stretch mark will improve slowly with treatment.


Hope it helps
