Stretch Marks on losing weight.

Dear Ilites,
Like most of you, i'm also on diet program and also doing workouts.I have started to notice strech marks in thighs/butt.Its looking similar to the post pregnancy strech marks.I checked with a doc. immediately and she told, it's because i have lost weight and hence the marks.Gave some kinda vaseline solution and i'm applying that.Still i have not seen any improvement.

Friends,are you also experincing anything like this? Please let me kno any special oil or solution to get rid of these marks.There are not many, but they cannot be ignored though .I'm very upset.

Thanks in advance.

Dear Aishu,
I used to apply coconut oil when i lost weight and then there is Franch oil also, try it and see.

Dear Janani,
So.. i'm not the only one..Thanks for the franch oil idea.Will try it..Hubby will go mad coz, i'm shopping for all kinda lotions for the past week the day i noticed the marks.

Dear Ilites,
As said in my earlier post, my stretch marks have increased because of my heavy work out and losing weight.
Have any one used cocoa butter cream/lotions for removing stretch marks? If yes, can you give me he name and place where to get one in chennai? Does himalaya product have any cream for removing stretch marks?
Plese help.

aishu,

i too use franch oil it works good, please try franch oil

Dear Padma,
Thanks for the reply.Let me try out Franch oil for some time.
I heard from few friends of mine tell about cocoa butter cream/lotion which is rich in Vitamin E and it nourishes the skin and the strecth marks go invisible within a weeks time.All of them are out of INDIA and so cannot suggest shops where i can get it here.So just wanted to chk if any one had any experince with that.

Same prob. with me also but little less intense
coz i do pilates and leg stretches to keep the skin tight
but still little little stretch marks i can c
what is franch oil and where is it available outside india

HI all,
I have only light streches in both the thighs..
Can we use olive oil over the stretch marks.....
How long will it take to cure ?

Dear Gauridatta,
Franch oil NH -is availbale in chennai.It's a herbal oil.I'm attaching a pic of that.Chk out if it helps for you to get it in your place.

Dear Narma,
I used olive oil, but it did not help for me.Try it out anyways, coz my strecth marks are intense and widely spread.I have attached the pic of FRANCH OIL NH, as our fellow Ilites have suggested that in my earlier posts.Chk that out and try to get it.
