Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic.
It is difficult to completely get rid of stretch marks. You could only lighten them with treatment. You could use a moisturiser containing vitamin E and cocoa butter in the morning. At bedtime you could use a cream containing 0.025% tretinoin only on the stretch marks. You could opt for procedures like dermaroller or microneedling.
You could use 2% kojic acid cream to lighten the mark on the pubic region.
The vaginal lips are darker is many people. It is normal and there is nothing to be done for that.
Hope this helps you.
Take care.
