Appearance of the stretch marks depends on how elastic your skin are.

If you're not breastfeeding, your skin doctor may prescribe tretinoin cream (brand name Retin-A), alone or in combining with other creams. A couple of studies have shown that applying tretinoin cream may help with stretch marks.

Choosing a healthy diet will contribute to better skin elasticity. Be sure to include oily fish such as salmon, nuts and seeds, and lots of fruit and vegetables. Depending on your genes, this may or may not prevent stretch marks or make them less severe.

Laser therapy is another choice if you're looking to improve the appearance of stretch marks.]]> retin-a Sun, 09 Mar 2008 19:41:02 -0400
