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.:‐)

"Ever since I was a young teenager I wanted a fuller chest. I was tired of my figure being described as boyish, not to mention I had a breast deformity that only made me more uncomfortable. So I finally took the plunge and got a breast augmentation. I am so happy with the results but the only thing that kept me from being completely happy was a few stretch marks that popped up about a month after the surgery. I started researching creams and therapies to use on them and just kept coming up short. Then one day, I saw a commercial for Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy and just knew that it was going to be worth trying. After about three weeks I really started to see them smooth and lighten up. I'm at the ten week mark now and I can't believe the difference. The texture of the stretch marks has smoothed over . . The color has gone from that dark red-ish purple to just a few shades away from my skin tone and I am very fair skinned. It really isn't another so called miracle cream. It works. It has helped turn this whole body transformation into something beautiful for me."

I am a young woman who has always suffered from stretch marks. They were everywhere, my arms, legs, stomach and back. I don’t have any children and I’m not a very large woman. They have always made me feel like I need to cover up my body. I had suffered from them since I was a teenager. Then in my mid twenties I was relieved to hear about Mederma®’s stretch mark cream. I have been using it for about 4 weeks now and I am seeing fading and evening."

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. :)

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.

I've been avoiding bathing suits and the beach ever since I got stretch marks. I think my embarrassment over my stretch marks contributed to my gaining a lot of weight... Because what difference would it make if I were slender? I still would be ashamed of my body. I wasn't sure if anything could improve them. So, to test the product I applied the cream to only the right half of my stomach and my right breast. Just to make sure there was no false difference in appearance, I put regular moisturizer on the left half of my stomach and left breast. After a few weeks On day 25, I could see a visible difference between the right and the left side. Now I am applying Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy to both sides. Can't wait to see the difference by the end of 12 weeks! The best part is that my skin is SMOOTHER. Thanks.

I have just been using Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy for a short time, I am faithfully using it as directed, and I can say that it is doing its magic. I am so happy that I will be able to go to the beach soon and not be so insecure because of the stretch marks I've gotten over a period of time due to weight gain & loss. They are less visible. Yes, I think that it is worth in investing in Mederma®.

"I have to say I was very skeptical about trying Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy. You always see commercials claiming that something works then you come to find out that it doesn't. Well, I was desperate after my pregnancy. I developed AWFUL stretch marks down my legs and thighs. I have been using this product for almost 5 weeks now and my stretch marks have faded so much. I can’t even imagine how great my legs will look after the full 12 week period! I was so self conscious and depressed because I thought my legs would never look good again, but now I have hope and I’m getting my confidence back! Thanks Mederma®!"

"After having my first child, I ended up getting stretch marks on my inner thighs, hips, and buttocks. I put lotion on my belly the entire time I was pregnant but never thought to put it on these other areas. Being only 21 years old, like any young woman I want to be able to wear my swimsuit with pride. I tried all the expensive creams, cocoa butter, oils, everything. Then I saw that Mederma® was coming out with a product for stretch marks. I was so excited because Mederma® is the most trusted scar product brand out there. I’m on my first bottle and only been using this stuff for about a week and let me tell you this stuff is heaven sent! My inner thighs had really deep striae and my stretch marks on my hips were very dark. I can barely see some of the smaller stretch marks now, and already seeing improvement of my stretch marks between my thighs. I am so happy I found this stuff in the nick of time, right before I have to start wearing a bikini! Definitely use a generous amount of the stuff and rub for about ten minutes; it’s kind of like a “self therapy” treatment. Thanks Mederma®, can’t wait for the full results! Will put up a picture when my 12 weeks are up!"

Before I had my beautiful daughter I weighed 115 pounds and was really tone. So to start out a pregnancy I was really tiny and bound to get stretch marks. Throughout the pregnancy I used cocoa butter for stretch marks but it didn't help out at all. I weighed 140 pounds and had these awful dark purple tinted stretch marks taking over my entire stomach. I bought Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy and tried it out. It’s been just a few weeks and even my husband noticed that it really reduced the color and appearance. He’s the one that pointed it out. WELL WORTH THE $40

From my pregnancy I got so many stretch marks on my stomach, thighs, and especially my hips. I was so embarrassed by my stretch marks that I didn't even want my husband to see me. Although I love my new baby boy and wouldn't trade him, the changes pregnancy made to my body made me feel so embarrassed and depressed. I thought there was nothing I could do to help reduce their appearance until I tried Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy. Now I am writing this review because I am so satisfied that I think every woman deserves to know about Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy and that it actually works. I've only been using Mederma® for a few weeks and looking at my stretch marks today, I cannot believe the difference it made. I am definitely going to keep using this product. Thank you, Mederma®! You gave me my confidence back and now even after my pregnancy I feel beautiful!

I gained 65 pounds in two months due to medication I was taking. I had stretch marks on my thighs and side. I have very dark skin, so my marks were even darker. After just one month of using Mederma® Stretch Marks Therapy they have started to improve on my thighs. My side still has some but they are not bad as they once were. I also used Mederma® Scar Gel on a surgical scar. It works great and I'll always recommend it to anyone.

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 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.
