I have been using Bio-oil but my Gynae scared me when she shared that whenever she encounters mummies with stretch marks, they all seem to be using Bio-oil.
HELP!
HELP!
Any recommendation on good stretch mark creams?

i have an unused new bottle. i can let go to u cheap.
By the way, I just want to share that with my #1, I did not get any stretchmarks throughout my entire pregnancy and 1st month after delivery. My stretchmarks only appeared 2 months after giving birth! So don't be fooled!
The good thing is that if you didn't see them during your full 40 weeks, chances are that they are very light and minimal, hence they only become visible after delivery when your skin has shrunk back.
Because my stretchmarks were very little, small and light, after they faded, they just look like faint little lines but you can't see them unless you come up close and really look out for them. And I was using Palmer's and Bio-Oil.
I'm hoping that using Clarins will help better in moisturising than Palmer's/Bio-Oil, and prevent or minimise stretchmarks in this pregnancy.
Stretchmarks is dependant on your genetic skin elasticity. So the more rapidly you gain weight and the more your skin stretches, the chances get higher also.
It has been proven that there's NO cream or oil in the world that can get rid of stretchmarks or 100% prevent it. It's all genetic. I have friends who have more than 1 kid, never used any oils or creams during their pregnancy and they didn't get any stretchmarks. Stretchmarks are considered deep layered scars, not surface scars so no creams or oil in the world can remove it. They can only improve the texture to make it slightly less obvious.
The only way to permanently get rid of stretchmarks is to go for Fraxel laser or micro-resurfacing.

Hi mummies! For those who are looking for stretch mark products, you may want to take a look at the the last drop shower gel which is highly recommended especially for preg mummies.

Yes, once my skincare specialist recommended me to take the products of The Spoiled Mama because their products are 100% safe and made of non-toxic ingredients. You can buy it from there.
