  • i think the medical community is wrong...the skin tears and I feel the layers of epidermis are actually torn...not the dermis...marks are squishy like dermis...not horny and solid like epidermis...they are pink and red like dermis not white and yellow like epidermis...something tells me we are hoodwinked like Spike Lee said...the epidermis is gone that is why you see what is underneath.... dermatology has failed because it is 2012 and their secrets continue...

  • I have few stretch marks on my ass... so I'm obese? HAHAHHA okay

  • the problem is a stretch mark is a furrow...layers are missing in the skin...asiatica according to the bitch is Gotu Kola ...none works actually....lasers either...she is a bullshitter...I've tried everything sirs...and maams...I'll let you know if....SOMETING REALLY WORKS!

  • I've come upon an interesting idea ...I received a scratch above stretchmarks...it looked exactly like a stretchmark bit it was on the surface of the skin...then it faded...and faded and faded...this means that stretchmarks are different...they occur in the dermal region...they act like injuries in the epidermis but the process shuts off quick leaving scars...there is no process...of removal...it is an incomplete process...like a scratch that stays the same forever...please think about this...

  • i have stretch marks on my penis............cos its really big

  • it seems 2011 technology has not solved the stretch marks problem causing human beings to be depressed and thus creating a financial crisis throughout the world...there is still no cure...

  • for an expert to not mention hormone imbalance and genetic predisposition ... i doubt her credibility. hormones are the main reason. im 17, never been overweight, didnt use topical steroids or have been pregnant, but i do know my hormones have been outta balance for a long time ... i hate these fxcking zebra stripes

  • NATURAL OILS SUCH AS :ARGAN OIL, EMU OIL, COCONUT OIL, BABASSU OIL, & SHEA BUTTER WORK. LOOK INTO THIS.

  • I have alot of stretch marks on my shoulders,hips,arms, some of my stomach area, and legs because I exercise and lose weight. How is that possible?

  • fuck off does it look like i shit money out of my ass.

  • like if you hate advertisements.

  • Okay, what is this shit about them being red. Mine have NEVER been red, they have always been very light ever since I started getting them and I keep getting more.

  • Thumbs up if like me, you're a teenage girl who has developed more and more stretch marks through growing up and you'd do absoloutely anything to remove them so that you can wear beautiful clothes again just like your friends do. :(

  • DONT WASTE UR MONEY sorry to say thy wont leave!

  • 80% americans have them because they eat too much trash.

  • i have stretch marks on my muscles lol.... dang it now i cant show off

  • @photonman54 samesies... right next to me shoulder i cant find something to get rid of them

  • i have stretch mark on my ass and its huge. it should be costed 30 grand. -_-

  • hi people I just wanted to say that im treating my stretch marks that I have them for about 20 years The doctor is using Active fx and Deep fx they were white I have also olive skin Im in my second treatment I still don't see but minimal results and I paid 600 for treatment

  • the reason is simple....the 3rd layer of epidermis, the rete ridge is torn....then the huge thick layer of dermis, the collagen/elastin is torn...how the hell you can replace that hunh....I know they fill pot holes with new material...perhaps something can be learned from that....sirs

  • ....ur fucking kidding me? creams? none of that shit works....... fuck this! how about a solution that wont leave me bankrupt not some gay ass disguised promo? all these creams and oils do (for most people) is fucking lighten the problem but it wont make it disapear.... some ppl (who are lucky) see real results but for most ppl thats bullshit and trial and error of these products will cost to fucking much. fuck these bitches. i want to see a vid of someone who had before and after pics

  • I'm not buying the derma roller....I feel it is a psychological knot....you'd be fucked up emotionally....its a couple of bucks,,,,compare that with the Palomar 1540 Lux laser approved by the FDA for striae...google it....it costs $89,000 dollars....that's physics engineering with the best minds....save up and get them zapped....then dominate the Hamptons....

  • I got a dermaroller, I seen it on here, on the Doctors and Rachel Ray, its not pleasant, but it is fading them a hell of a lot faster then the bio oil. I still use it with the dermaroller, but yeah. I only did one side od my body to see if there was a difference and even took before and after photos to make sure I wasnt just imagining. It works I got it off ebay for 60 bux 1.5mm. I dont think they will ever go away fully, but I can live with them now. 60 bux or 15 thow..... hmmmmm I'll take 60

  • I had a child, put on palmers coco butter more than 5 times a day. I was free for the first 8 months, I woke up one day, and BAM there they were. None of that crap works, the end. Surgery is all smh.

  • "Vaseline Cocoa Butter Deep Conditioning Body Lotion" works for stretch marks. I just wanted a moisturizer for my skin, so my grandma bought me one. But then a few weeks in i thought i was imagining it but my stretch marks were disappearing!

    I had given up on trying to find something to get rid of my stretch marks after searching for years and using expensive products.

    If you don't believe me google it and read the reviews. It works best it you use it twice a day instead of once.

  • @BoycottYou2ube ...bullshit...I used it for the longest time motherfucker with no improvement other than softness...so if want espouse crappy information to Youtubers you will get bitch slapped...the truth will set us free...

  • @johnsmdm Wow. I know you're not threatening to slap me through a computer screen. If it didn't work for you you were probably something wrong

  • @BoycottYou2ube ...something wrong?...I rubbed it on for a minute....what's the "right way"....listen...creams don't work...I've tried everything for 25 years...I suggest we form a stretch mark group and travel to Beverly Hills...this Epione seems to work 100%...unless something someplace is even better...Vaseline is only good for one thing in this case...and you know what that is "Boynott"....

  • @johnsmdm well I was talking about the "vaseline cocoa butter deep condition body lotion" not the petroleum jelly. it's worked for me I'm just trying to spread the word

  • @BoycottYou2ube ..that's what I'm saying toughguy...or maam....I've been using your cocoa butter condition lotion for a year with no results....don't fuck with us Youtubers...we aren't fooled by bullshit NO MORE!....lasers are FDA approved so they have efficasy....we who are marked shall rebel....you who lie shall fall into the evil wherein you dwell...let it be so....

  • They dont want a cure because there is so much money in lotions and surgerys for "fixing" stretch marks, if they let out a cure the buisnesses lose money and close down

  • I wasted so much money on creams & oils and nothing worked because stretch marks are like scars- tissue is dead. The only way to get rid of them is to mechanically abrade them. This is expensive at dermatologist's office but you can do it cheaply at home using medical crystals. All my stretch marks are gone and I feel normal again. Just google search medicalcrystals.

  • ladies calm down....as I said before....stretch marks are controlled by doctors just as varicose veins are...because insurance doesn't cover it, you will dish out around 10, 000$, maybe more... when its all said and done...lazers....doctor evil controls this problem...

  • @AshillaBeige so you cannot comment on it, and to do so i would say you are the one who is 'disturbed'. You clearly know nothing about it anyway as if you did you would know someone with an ed would not glamerize it etc or would ever describe it as being among the 'privileged' which to do so is disgusting and ridiculous. Im sure you have your shitty problems and if i had known i would never use it as an insult or point in my comment. Also, fame attempt ? wtf

  • i think everyone should set up a petition or something because so many people have them, practically everyone so surely its something that needs to be adressed and not ignored! and anyone who says we are being vain or shallow you obv dont have them then cause you wouldnt be saying that if you had, and its a problem because of the effect it has on our confidence/self esteem nothing to do with being vain!

  • @prettyreckless270 ...the reason is because you would cause the whole economy to crumble...stretch marks and wrinkles are similar...you would put Avon, Retin A, Laser companies, Botox, plastic surgeons, dermatologists out of business...they make money off treating your stretch marks for decades w/o much improvement...stretch marks are good for snake oil salesmen....

  • @prettyreckless270 I have them, and you are a vain, shallow, and spoiled. I'm toning that down a bit because you are clearly disturbed and I'd feel a bit bad.

    Most people in the West have issues with weight; should we then petition for liposuction?

    Just because you want something doesn't mean you're entitled to it.

  • @AshillaBeige well just cause your ok with yours/ doesnt effect you doesnt mean its that way for everybody! to say i am 'spolied' or 'disturbed' is pretty outrageous accusations to pull from a comment i made, you dont know me so i would say that its harsh and wasnt 'toning it down'. weight is completely different issue, a person can actually do something about that, exercise etc and will lose weight, whereas stretch marks the treatments are costly & you can not get rid of them. did i say i was?

  • @prettyreckless270 Actually, that's false what you said about weight. As one ages, it's more difficult to lose weight, and someone who is an endomorph may never be able to be lean without surgery.

    And you can get rid of stretch marks, you just don't want to pay for it. I saw your little attempt at fame on your channel and see you belong to the modern eating disorder cult (not to be confused with typical E.D.'s) seen among the young and privileged, which is why I used the term "disturbed."

  • @AshillaBeige yeah may be more difficult but it's possible. Actually there's a difference between not wanting to pay something and not being able to afford it, you will find most people are the latter, like me, if i could afford it i would have it. You cannot get rid of stretch marks completely, surgery only fades them. I see you went on my channel to see if you can find something to insult me with, oh and you chose an illness i had, you must feel very big. you know nothing about what i had..

  • i had anorexia for 3 years and when i was in recovery the doctors put me on a diet that would get me up to a 'healthy weight' ¬¬ now i have loads of stretch marks which make me feel even worse about myself and even if i lose weight again they would still be there =( im going to the doctors to see if they will do something but they will prob just say the old 'stretch marks are forever, sorry try this cream it wont work but at least it will get you out my office' argh i agree please find a cure!

  • Comment removed

  • @BoycottYou2ube ...are you prepared to be sued if you are lying sir...thankyou maam....hunh?

  • @BoycottYou2ube wait...did you use them simultaneously? Because I use Cocoa Butter....but not Vaseline Deep Conditioning Lotion. Do you use one after the other or one during the day and the other during the night? plz oh plz reply.......

  • @drunkandangry I'm sorry I should've said "Vaseline Cocoa Butter Deep Conditioning Body Lotion" it's one lotion (with cocoa butter in it) and I use it twice a day.. be consistent :.)

  • well I dont really care if they dont go away completely just want to reduce them

  • the place i went to said i need 5 treatments for $800 each..so laser is more like $4000

  • HARR ROOK THE SAME

  • Here's a solution that has worked for me: Tanning

  • you know whats sad? I'm losing weight & im getting stretch marks XD Stupid stuff. i wasn't like super big but losing weight is losing weight. i don't get why i am getting strech marks. Even on my chest! i don't even have big boobs! Whatever. i want to get rid of them but i'm just gunna be happy that i have a healthy body & that i'm all in one piece.

  • i have em all on my nasty ass ='( oh well , my future hubby will have to live with it! xP

  • just be grateful your alive and not dead!

  • With all the technology in the world. We could put a man on the moon, create an artificial heart, but cant fix a simple skin stretch mark problem?

  • @tatomuck18 I ask my self all the time..like doctors can change male private parts into female private parts but cant remove stretch marks? wow tisk

  • @fancytracy91

    ur wrong doctors can remove stretch marks... tummy tuck.. ive known ppl that have had them disapear with a tummy tuck.. so there is a way to remove them. Basically stretch marks are scars now if u opt for a tummy tuck ull have a huge scar.. its shitty logic and sort of defeats the puirpose... 1 huge scar to get rid of many tiny/medium scars... crap logic but thats the only thing they;ve come up with - cutting them out and leaving a huge ass scar above ur pussy/dick.

  • @tatomuck18 apart from infectious diseases, surgery and a few other specialties theres not much you can do to cure in medicine, you merely manage symptoms.

  • @tatomuck18 your question is just fucking perfect

  • @tatomuck18 that's what i'm saying! you can get plastic surgery to look totally different but you can't get rid of little marks! i'm not obese and never was, but i have it all over my butt, calf, hips, inner thighs, and near my armpits. I haven't worn shorts let alone a swimsuit and when i do i get really self conscious and i've been that way since high school. It's sad.

  • @hannguye You are no less beautiful for having stretch marks. 98% of people are too busy worrying about their own flaws to even notice whats going on with other peoples bodies, so you wear what ever you want my lovely!

  • @EyeLurveEwe ...that's ridiculous...Demi Moore can wear a bikini and be flawless...Ashton Kutcher has none...Arnold used to have them but now has none...Arnold had a huge mole but now has none...no scar...I believe that those in power know how to get rid of them but....you have the mark of the beast...you are not human in their eyes....you have the mark of Cain...something tells me the p,laying field of stretchmarks is not equal....man...shit...

  • i'm so depressed. There has to be something.. :/

  • @10system25 cocoa butter :)

  • almost sounds like the news caster has stretchmarks cuz of how she was like time out lol... i heard trilastin sr...is good...but never tried it or knew anyone who tried it so use at own risk(its expensive)..laser surgery is in the thousands..so only the rich can look good and shit? heh..... really...like as if it costs thousands of dolars to turn on a fucking laser.. i bet they prolly use less than $5 of electricity while zapping ur ass stomach and thighs

  • no hope for those who are already have white stretch marks.

  • lol mine are white.. no hope :S ??

  • EVERYONE HAS AT LEAST ONE

  • I posted a video about different cocoa butter products that can be used for stretch marks. Checkout my channel and watch this video,

  • OMG I'm 20 & this is so depressing, mine r white and all over my butt. I've had them ever since I hit puberty and now red ones r coming from my thighs. My skin tone is medium so they notice a LOT!!!

    I will find a cure hopefully, I'm not giving up!!!

  • @scarlettrose11 If you find the cure...PLEASE TELL ME!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Downie was one of the best years ago, sadly this is no longer true. Downie will try to stretch out simple treatments, and sell over the counter washes she hawks opposed to writing a prescription for what is needed. She buys watered down peels, charges the price of quality peel, all so you will have to keep coming back. She will biopsy eczema as if looking for skin cancer- leaving marks in your face, then wants to chemically peel marks. Never go there if you care about your skin!!

  • lmao did the news person say "wait time out". LOL wow.

  • I guarantee if you find a way the doctors get some big sum of money, they'd find a way to get rid of stretch marks at HOME :/

  • :( im absolutly covered due to steriods i had to have for my ashma , its so depressing , its so annoything the only thing that will make em go away is laser treament grrr

  • hi , are some of you from the usa??? i hear that you can found some cover cremes .did some of you try this??

  • yes it's sad !!! are you people from the usa??? don't you have some cover cremes ??

  • basically all you need to do is just work out instead of get the surgery, and also eat more healthy. it works, trust me. and by work out, i mean like do something active. lift weights, do push ups, sit ups, run, walk, bike ride, or what ever. it does work, trust me. i'm starting to get rid of mine and it feels great :)

  • @RockstarDude13 you are a liar and a fraud!...you won't be able to sleep until you retrack your comment....you are unrighteous...

  • @johnsmdm wtf man? i'm not lying. i mean SURE it's not going to completely go away.. i never said that, i said just basically working out and being active some more will help. i don't care if you call me a liar. plus arguing over you tube is just pointless. either take my advice or don't. i don't care, i'm just trying to help out.

  • @RockstarDude13 ....hey big man.....look, Youtube is for the human race to trade information.....some is good some is shit in plain English....I come with a sword....I like to cut through the lies....I saw so many useless comments like yours that I save the viewer "wasted years"....working out will improve your self esteem but does not effect the look of stretch marks......

  • @johnsmdm well have you tried it yourself? i dunno.. it's worked for me so i don't know. i'm just saying what is working for me okay? so i thought i'd just share what i'm doing to get rid of my stretch marks. i'm sorry that you don't believe me.

  • @RockstarDude13 ok idiot... ur sincerely dumb... lifting weights and situps are both bade examples of getting rid of stretch marks... those will actually increase risks... bigger muscles= tighter skin... thats how i got mine at the back of my shoulders and a few under my arms... i dont feel that threatend by them but ive stopped lifting for a while... i was told to take vitamin E... and given some lotions

  • @MasterJames10101 ehhh i ment pushups not situps... situps are okay

  • This sucks, I feel like she's hiding the real, best, and cheapest way to get rid of them. That bitch! :) Why can't they just give us a cheap answer, I mean it's not like 1500's are gonna fall from the sky.

  • many got rid of them with vick's vapo rub

  • im 14 and i got them on y thighs cause i had a gay groth spurt :[

  • Is a gay growth spurt different then a straight growth spurt?

  • HAHAHAHAHAH!

  • well I was thrown out of my house tonight by my old lady in the cold wintery night and I'm very hurt about that...I WILL TRY E again for your sake...

  • all these creams they showed is useless and is harmful for your skin.. u can make your own mixture for an exampe i mix vit E, vit A, coconut oil, and olive oil..

  • this is right .. and castor oil to and tea tree oil

  • you said that lots of people "got rid " of them using shea n E...I is askin ya now....who b "lots of people" hunh?....answer us!

  • OMG HAVE U PERSONALLY USED PURE VITAMIN E??

    i bought trilastin it DOES PRETTY MUCH NUTTIN!

    I use vitamin e oil for about 5 months n my WHITE stretch marks have vanisehd about 60%

    i tink the success of vitamin e does depend on the person..buh YES A LOT OF PPL havr said it has worked quite well 4 dem.

    I tink all des cream shit is a waste of money. btw VITAMIN E oil PROMOTES vitamin A..cell renewal in the body as well.

  • yeah I did...I noticed new ones poppin up n that scared the shit atta me an thats with a steady bodyweight man....vit E started givin me new ones...I'm scared man, this beast seems unbeatable...

  • srry 2 hear dat..mayb vitamin e doesnt go well with ur skin

    y don u try some sort of oil..like sweet almond dat has high vtmain e..OR coco butter

    Des creamsa re a wast of money i avdivice making ur own concotion...

  • Only solution to get almost completely rid of stretch marks. Put cream right when they first appear and they are red..they will almost go away.. If they are already white they are old they will never go away..

  • Creams do NOT work. I cannot believe she suggested using creams during pregnancy to help avoid stretch marks; that would NEVER work. If you're prone to stretch marks, there is nothing you can do about it to avoid getting them.

  • vitmain e is gr8..depneds on ur skin..buh ppl try it!

  • @dissturbia I agree!!!! and I was hoping someoen smart would say that. pure vitmain e is very good for the skin either it be pill or oil form or both. Lots of people got rid of stretch marks with shea butter and vitamin e

  • that's misinformation spareld...who are lots of people hunh!...satan getteth behind me!

  • @johnsmdm wow what are you talking about?

  • red and white? what about ppl other than caucasians? our stretch marks arent red and white!

  • I've used stieva - A and differin these are retinoids.. as she states above are only useful when they are in there red stages.. you can't use these when your pregnant though because vitamin A can cause blindness and complications to the fetus . also, if your breastfeeding you can't use that. You also, need a prescription for these from your doctor or dermotologist. I've noticed it has faded them a bit so far. But they're still there... it takes time. Sadly, wish i was rich lol i'd get the laser

  • well i dont have 15 grand,IM SCREWED! :'( xD

  • @oftaja ....get a good job sir....give your life 100%.....

  • @oftaja she said 15 hundred...

  • @oftaja She said 15 hundred, not 15 thousand!

  • @Sixty63rd is still a lot....

  • Ok so if anyone knows of a remedy that really does work please let me know..Im desperate!! and I have never been fat. never been pregnant they just happened. let me know!!!!!!

  • type in "tonyatko stretchmark remedy"

  • shea butter + olive oil

  • The same thing happened to me. I've never been chubby or pregnant and i have some pretty nasty stretch marks on my inner thighs. I bought Bio Oil today and I'll let you know if it works for me. I know this post is old so we'll see!

  • hello,wondering how that bio oil worked for you?

  • Not very well. I didn't use it all the time so the results may have been different. I still use it though as it is a great moisturizer and smells nice :)

  • That didn't help me at all

  • bullcrap I moisterized more than 5 times a day when I was pregnant and it did not work

  • oh nooo!! im petrified! i have some on sides..iv had them since i was a teen. now im pregnant and i have been moisturizing probably like u, about 5 times a day, so your saying theres no hope??

  • just because it didn't work for me, does not mean that it will not work for you. Everyone had different skin. Drink lots of water. And check out some other products other than cocoa butter. I used cocoa butter the whole time and it did not help. My stretch marks are not as bad as they could've been. I massage and exfoliate them, they are a lot less visible. See if 'TonyaTKO's shea butter mixture works for you. It helped with some of my stretch marks, but not all.

  • @hopstop3721 well dont stop using the moisturizers cause it might help. They say that drinking plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated will help prevent stretch marks so i can only assume that moisturizing your skin helps to hydrate which in turn should help prevent stretch marks.

  • i agree

    its sad how we are in th year 2009 and doctors make it seem that we are hopeless in finding a cure for stretch marks !!!

    wtf!!!!

    makes me want to scream.

    i got them cus of puberty ... i am not fat i have always been in shape

    but i got them because of something i cant control- growing up.

    we have so much technology but we cant cure stretch marks...... ughhh =[

  • Fucking doctors are cunts. They just want you to buy those damn rx creams and all that shit. I switched over to natural stuff.

  • @colombiacrack88 Most deff suck :/

  • @colombiacrack88 Oh my gosh! exactly my thoughts. I got them because of puberty too and my crazy rollercoaster of losing-gaining weight. I'm begining to think there is a cure but no one wants to reveal it... I mean, come on! Doctors know how to stop the aging marks on the face, remove spots on the skin and make a sex change, Do we have something to stretchmarks? NO... so unfair.

  • So basically, unless you have 1500 dollars to blow on laser surgery....there is absolutely nothing that can be done for old stretch marks. Nice to see how far doctors have come, they still cant find another cure for something as common as this other than surgery. Pathetic.

  • i agree. i mean it's just the skin....it's not aids

  • its all about money. doctors know how common stretch marks are. they know people will spend thousands on things that make it somewhat better, or not at all. its a mean thing to do but it pays for their vacation homes.

  • @lilbrowstalker actually there are stretch mark cream like mederma

  • if you wanna get rid of stretch marks, all you gotta do is eat less and lose weight. Its the sudden excess weight gain that causes the stretch marks.

  • @tatomuck18 No, it's not. I got them during my teen years and I was VERY skinny. Everyone thought I had an eating disorder. Then I got them again during pregnancy, but not in the areas where the skin streched a lot, like my belly. It's due do a bunch of different factors, ONE of them being weight gain.

  • @tatomuck18 but even if you lose weight they will still be there

  • @lilbrowstalker so you'll know, it cost doctors....uhm......100 dollars max for a a 1500 hundred dollar procedure, they just charge you the the max. because they can. So basically if they charged you cost, for 1.500 hundred dollars you recieve 15 treatments which would definitely if not completely about 95% of you stretch marks. So they can they just don't want to.......

  • @lilbrowstalker Scar tissue has to be broken down. You can't expect everything to heal itself if you throw a cream on it.

    Doctors have vastly expanded human life expectancy and have even eradicated some diseases off the planet. They go through years of expensive schooling and then get the shit taxed out of them because of the high incomes that they damn-well deserve.

    This may sound crazy, but just because you want something doesn't mean you shouldn't have to work hard to earn it.

  • @lilbrowstalker go study and do something about it buddy.! pathetic

  • 1500s not that unreasonable

  • That's per session, you need 3-4 sessions
