I was skeptical about Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy at first, because I didn't think a lotion could make a significant difference. But I am a believer now! My stretch marks are so reduced that they are barely noticeable. I was so happy with the results. I have seen a reduction in discoloration, an improvement in texture, and my skin is softer. I was surprised to see results so quickly. After just a few weeks, my stretch marks already appeared reduced. I would definitely recommend it because of the results I have seen.

When I was a teenager I had a very bad eating disorder.. So I lost a great amount of weight. When I finally started eating normal again I gained a lot of weight in a short period of time. Therefore I got stretch marks on the middle area of my stomach. I tried almost everything you could think of. Everyone kept telling me to use Cocoa Butter, but that never worked. But the Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy really has helped my stretch marks be less noticeable. I have to look very closely to actually see them. I will continue to keep using this product because it is actually helping me. I am thankful.:‐)

I was 95lbs before I got pregnant and gained weight up to 150 lbs. I thought that because I was so small it would not make a difference with stretch marks.. I mean I never had them before why would I get them now? Wrong. I ended up with marks all over. I did not know what to do or which product to turn to. After reviewing hundreds of products I decided to try Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy. At first I thought it was a joke. But after a month went by I noticed the marks lightened a bit.. and within I think 13 weeks or so they had lightened A LOT. I never share stories online, but I am so happy with the way I look now compared to what I looked like before, because of this product. :)

Ever since I was 15 I started getting stretch marks on my lower back thighs and on the back of my legs behind my knees. I didn't understand why I was getting them because I was so small & petite. It’s so sad to see all your friends wear shorts and cute bikinis when you're young and you’re stuck dressed in winter clothes in the middle of summer. I hated my body and was so insecure. I recently had a baby and barely got any stretch marks on my stomach so I blame the old ones on the pregnancy. I used everything from cocoa butter, vitamin E, to even vapor rub. NOTHING WORKED. Finally while shopping I saw Mederma® & my mom was telling me to get it but in the back of my mind I'm thinking “I'm just gonna be let down”. I decided to use it and I am seeing results, I wish I would've known about this earlier...I'm IN LOVE WITH IT & I'm so excited to be able to wear cute clothing this summer...thanks Mederma®

I am 19 years old. I got stretch marks when I was ten years old, but I have only been using Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy for about 3 weeks. I have already seen improvement. I can’t wait to see how it’s going to turn out after 4 months. I love this stuff and it smells good. I Recommend it. Great product.

"When I was pregnant with my first child I experienced a weird allergic reaction that caused me to get really severe itchy stretch marks around the mid section of my stomach. The stretch marks were purple, red and all around my belly button. I tried every cream in the world and nothing helped or prevented me from getting stretch marks. Then I lost a lot of weight which caused my stomach skin to get loose so you can imagine what my stomach looked like at that point. It was awful. Then I saw the commercial for Mederma® Stretch Mark Therapy. I am on my second month and let me tell you it works. Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy changed the color of them from purple/red to more natural. I am very happy. The after picture is using Mederma® for 1 month."

I got a ton of stretch marks when I was pregnant with my first and I got more with my second. I tried oils and other stuff and nothing seemed to really help. I have been using Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy for a few weeks and I can already see a big difference in my stretch marks. They are becoming smoother and are less visible too. I tell other people about this product. I love it. I have wanted to try it since it came out and I finally got a coupon in the mail and I used it. I am going to buy more of it. I love this stuff. It works so well. I didn’t like my body because of the stretch marks. Thank you for making this product.

OMG! Thank you Mederma®! I had my son while my husband was in Afghanistan so I was always worried about what he would think about my stomach when he got back. Well unfortunately this product came out a little after he got back but it was still worth it because he got to see the progress right along with me. I only used it for 4 weeks because it is fairly expensive but I plan on getting more because the results were so amazing. Thank you so much for giving me a piece of my life back!

I got stretch marks on my inner thighs from losing and gaining weight too quickly. I was watching TV and saw the ad for Mederma® and saw the success stories other girls had so I went out and bought it. My stretch marks were pretty deep, big and really red at times, but after using Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy twice a day for 2 months I have already noticed a big difference. This really does work and now I don’t have to feel like I need to hide my thighs anymore. It does wonders.

Hello Mederma®, I'm 20 years old and I had my first baby Lucy. I was worried about my stretch marks, my baby was huge, and I have a lot of stretch marks. I started to use Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy 1 day after my delivery, and I have been using it for 3 months twice a day, and it works!!! I didn't know that I could say thanks on the website, because I have been saying to my husband that I want to say how thankful I am!!! Thanks you for thinking of what women need for the body after having the most wonderful thing in the world - having a baby!

I love Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy and was pleased with my experience. I was skeptical at first, but I do believe it works. I applied it as directed – twice daily for 12 weeks. To remember to apply, I made it a part of my morning/evening beauty routine (however limited it is these days;). I didn’t have terrible stretch marks, but where I did have stretches in my skin it is less noticeable. The areas are softer and blend in with the surrounding areas, especially on my breasts, which is where I did have more stretch marks. I’ve seen a reduction in discoloration, and improvement in texture, enhanced softness and an improvement in overall appearance. I was adamant about using creams/oils during my pregnancy to try to prevent skin damage…and I was pretty successful…but where I did have some stretch marks, Mederma® was able to help fade those back in. I have already recommended it to my sister‐in‐law. She is trying it on stretch marks from her last baby...about 8 year old...we'll see how it works!

I started noticing random stretch marks on my breasts one day and I didn't think much of them, nor did I even consider them actually being stretch marks... I assumed that the marks would eventually just go away, and that maybe they were just temporary marks or something. However, the marks did not fade - they became more and more prominent and visible, and this worried me. I spoke with my mom about it and she said it might have something to do with my fluctuating weight, because I used to be very athletic and my lack of exercise was increasing. So, my mom bought me Mederma Stretch Marks Therapy. I continued to use it and I made sure I didn't forget to apply it at least once a day. It's been about 2 months and I am finally seeing visible improvement and the stretch marks have definitely improved. I am so happy because not only am I young and thin, I'm also petite so I felt that having stretch marks on my breasts was the strangest and most embarrassing thing to happen to my body. I was feeling very self-conscious whenever I wore a low-cut shirt and looked down at my cleavage and saw my stretch marks. I am so glad I didn't give up on this product. I'm very happy with it and I will continue to use it! Thank you so much, Mederma®!!

I'm 19 years old and I have had really terrible stretch marks on my thighs for the past 3-4 years. I was so embarrassed, I couldn't wear skirts, dresses, shorts, etc. because they were so bad. I was very skeptical about using this product because I have used a number of other products, like oils, cocoa butter, etc., and they just didn't work. I've used Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy for 4 weeks and I can't believe that it is actually working already. I have seen my stretch marks go from very dark to very light. They are barely noticeable now. I can't wait to see how they will look in 12 weeks. If you want to do something about your stretch marks this is the product you should use. I am not exaggerating. This product really works and you will be happy about your results like I was.
