Default Stretch marks?

So does anyone know if there is anything that will get rid of the stretch marks that are left after losing weight? Someone once told me that it doesn't matter what you put on them, its just the act of massaging your skin that will help them to fade - and that they never completely go away. Anyone? anyone?

Default Re: Stretch marks?

Pure Cocoa Butter will help. I switched from regular lotion to Cocoa butter so I wouldn't have to use the two and it does make slight difference in the appearance but no they will never "Disappear" hey it's better than nothing and atleast it smells good. LOL.
