Hello, Welcome to healthcare magic. Getting rid of stretch marks is difficult but you could try multiple modalities to lighten them. 1. Use a good moisturiser containing vitamin E and cocoa butter. ( Palmer' s brand is a good one). 2. Apply a cream containing 0.025% Tretinoin on the stretch marks at bed time. 3. You could try dermaroller or microneedling treatments with vitamin C serum. This will stimulate collagen production. 4. Fraxel lasers can also be tried. There is no single modality for treatment of stretch marks and creams alone will not help. Hope this helps you. Take care.
