Stretch Marks ... and Im Only 13 !!! Posted: 08-05-07 10:00am
im 13 years of age. and i have stretch
marks all over my legs. im a size 8, 5
foot 9 and have never dieted and i havnt
gone through rapid weight loss stages. i
have stretch marks ALL over my bum, the
insides of my legs, and just underneath my
bum at the back of my leg. its relly
getting me down, because it looks a little
bit like cellulite because my skin looks
bumpy. i know im tall, and i did grow very
rapidly, but most of my friends done that
too, yet they arnt burdened wiht loads of
stretch marks. ive looked up surgery for
them, and there is laser sugery, i think
thats what it was called anyway. well, its
breaking my self esteem in the summers
when it comes to wearing a bikini. is
there anything thats good that i can use
in the meantime? and do the surgerys
really work?? xx

Hello, I know how you feel because I just
turned 20 and I had a baby when I was 16
yearsold, I got tons of stretch marks!!
Not so many on my tummy actually which is
supprising, but all over my bum, thighs,
and boobs! It sucks. One thing that helps
though is being in shape because it
tightens the whole muscle which makes them
look not soo much like celulite. Also
tanning helps.. if they are new, they are
probably pretty dark? Mine were almost
purple at first, now they are more like
silver. But another good thing I believe
helps if you can do it all the time is use
coco butter. Other than that i dont know
what to tell you, but dont let it bring
you down! Almost everyone at some point in
their life will get them so dont even
worry about it.
