A. shea butter helps reduce stretch marks to some extent. Stretch marks become less noticeable over time, they don't disappear. keep the area clean and dry. drink adequate amount of water. You can use bio oil or almond oil or balaji tambes rose beauty oil or flatkin cream or maderma stretch marks cream.

A. I applied all 3 months specially imported from Africa. I felt no Itching. My pregnancy period was smooth. It's been 6months my stretch marks are of dark brown colour did not fade, but over the period it will. So no matter you apply Bio Oil or Mederma it is always depends the kind of skin. Someones skin are loose and others are tight. My is tight, So when after 7months it stretched marks became darker and more started occuring. I am sharing this in detail so you can avoid time, money and efforts in thinking about stretch marks like I did. Wish you good luck. Enjoy this period.

A. Well sadly it do not help. But during belly stretching you will not feel any inflammation on skin neither itching. Stretch Marks will not fade away by any product. Neither it can lighten. It depends on the skin type of women
