Lotions and Creams for Stretch Marks

There are a number of products on the market for stretch marks. The only ones I would recommend are topical creams like alpha-hydroxy acids and Retin-A medicines. These products combined with topical steroid creams are able to reduce inflammation in the skin and stave off the negative effects of the hormones in the skin causing the stretch marks. These products will also help remodel the collagen and elastin in our skin and improve their appearance.
