I heard that lotions with cocoa butter, Vitamin E , collagen reduce stretch marks.

I like to think of them as battle scars.

They'll get less noticeable and lighter over the years, mostly when you stop growing as fast. I switch off. I originally got them on the inside of my triceps, then I got them on my legs, now they're on my hams, thighs, ass, triceps, chest-delt area, rear-delt lat area...lol. It's not as bad as it sounds though.
Like many others, I pride myself in them; it means your growing and your growing fast.
But, you will find creams for them. Do a Google search.

Its a bit pricey but doctors usually recomend it for help with after pregnancy stretch marks on woman so it should work well in other areas...cheers.PWA

Once you have them, you can't make them dissappear altogether. However, they will fade over time.
