Lines After Wearing Multiple Waist Trimmers. How To Get Rid Of Theses Marks?
I have these lines, one more defined than the other, from wearing multiple waist trimmers, - so these are horizontal lines, without redness or irritation; have had them for about 80 days; just noticed not too recently, started using cocoa butter 4-5 days ago, have been applying extra virgin olive oil and powdered b complex vitamins to the area. Not entirely sure if it is fading or if it is just my imagination.
How would I go about getting rid of these marks?

Hi the marks due to waist trimmers are nothing but straie distensae.they can be cured by vitamin e supplementation and application of elastoderm ointment over the lesions or retinioc acid can cure the condition..they should be used for three or four months to see the response.the medication u are using will cure the condition very slowly
