    I've heard that products with Retin-A work well for this. You could probably see a Dr. and get a prescription strength one.

    Vitamin E oil is a god send on scars and stretchmarks. you can get it at any pharmacy. Take a small about and massage on the area. I had stretch marks really bad because of a major growth spirt when I was younger. My chest was covered with them, now you can only see them very slightly but they are completely normal color

    Palmers Cocoa ButterIt's a very good lotion. Just tell them that your skin is dry, and that you love the smell or something.. It does have a very distinct smell.
    I am currently using it for my (potential) stretch marks because I am 13 weeks pregnant, and I have an amazing tattoo on my stomach/hip that I want to keep looking nice!!

    I was going to suggest this aswell.. i had amazingly deep stretch marks after my pregnancy and now you can hardly see them. It really does work.

    Stretch marks are a type of scar beneath the skin. When body shape changes, or skin is stretched in any way, there’s a possibility that the deeper layers of the skin may suffer damage. The deep layers of the skin are formed primarily by collagen and other connective tissue. When collagen is strained beyond its strength, it tears.
