Delivery ko 3 months ho gaye and my tummy is full of stretch marks, kuch toh kaafi dark hai. I keep applying oil but no change. Anyone who actually got rid of these, what worked for u? Thoda demotivated feeling honestly.
Uff, I know stretch marks look annoying, but honestly after handling that horrible 9 months of non-stop vomiting, these marks feel like small battle scars. I just used simple bio oil and virgin coconut oil twice a day to stop the dry itching. Don't stress too much about them, your body did something amazing.
Please be careful with what creams you apply, especially if you had a C-section or skin sensitivity. I had a lot of post-pregnancy healing issues, so my doc told me not to use random OTC scar removal creams. Better to just ask your gynac or dermatologist first during your follow-up.
I felt so conscious of my tummy after delivery, like my old body was just gone. But then I started applying pure badam oil daily after my bath, and slowly they are lightening. It takes a lot of patience, but now I look at them and feel proud of bringing my baby into the world.
Dear, stretch marks are totally normal and most of us get them! Don't waste too much money on very expensive chemical creams. Just use simple ghar pe olive oil or mustard oil daily to keep the skin soft. They will naturally fade from dark red to light silvery lines over a year.
Hey! Wear them like a badge of honor! 💖 I used a mix of shea butter and fresh aloe vera gel daily and they got quite light. Just keep massaging the area gently, it helps with blood flow and makes them fade faster! ✨
Actually, my dermatologist said we can't completely erase them, only fade them over time. She suggested starting a retinoid cream but only *after* I stop breastfeeding. For now, she told me to keep the skin hydrated with hyaluronic acid or thick cocoa butter daily. Honestly, consistency is key, so don't expect magic overnight.
