For those of you that have stretch marks, what have you found effective to clear them up?

Im aware of cocoa butter, but what else is there?

I have them on the outside of my pectorals, inside of my thighs, lats, inside of elbow.

I've found that tattoos cover them up really well.

Luckily I dont have any bad ones-just a few on my outer quads..anyway if you have real a ripple from the stretch its almost impossible to get rid of them completely without laser surgery. but exfoliations and lotion is the best. Massage the mark and try not to get it tan. It is a form of scarring so it will not color the same as the rest of your skin. Also always stay hydrated.

I'm in the same boat as you, pecs, and unfortunately part of the biceps

Stretch Marks come in all shapes and sizes. When you see the forming, use vitamin E cream every day. It will help on new ones. Keep the skin hydrated and they won't get so deep.

I heard from pregnant women from when I worked in a pharmacy back in the day that they would pop open Vitamin E gels and rub it on them. Don't know if it really worked but all the pregos were buying all the Vit E we had.

Lizard, I've also heard of the Vitamin E caps, I haven't personally tried that yet but I will soon + I will report back with my results.
