How to get rid of red stretchmarks?
So I'm 15. No babies. I've gained a little wait since last year. I now have stretch marks across my stomach, on my love handles, biceps, inner thighs, & back of knees. Any tips on getting rid of them before they become white & permanent?!?!? Already tried 3 different stretch mark creams. Cocoa butter, Vaseline, & baby oil. Any other suggestions????

The cause is the loss of elastin and collagen from your skin is mainly responsible for causing stretch marks. This loss can occur due to hormonal changes, though more common is that the skin is stretched more than normal, leading to a breakdown of the tissue fibres. When this happens, a stretch mark develops and can be seen in the top layer of the skin.
Using essential oils can minimize and reduce stretch marks. This article titled "Essential Oils for Stretch Marks" explains how they can be used to help with stretch marks http://www.essenceofwellbeing.com.au/Essential-Oil...
This is not a miracle cure for stretch marks but you will see the difference over some weeks
Hope this helps!
