Not in the way you might think. See what our testers discovered
Key ingredients: Darutoside and registril *
Claims: "Decreases the appearance of existing stretch marks"
Pros: Safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding, contains natural and organic ingredients, free of dyes, parabens and phthalates, easy to apply, short drying time
Cons: Expensive, must be used twice daily for first month
Comments: "True to this product's word, it is a 'minimizing cream,' not a 'disappearing cream.' I started using the [citrus-scented] cream a week after having my third child, and although I can't say my stretch marks are gone, I can say that their color has faded and my skin [texture] is much smoother." -- Robin

just a note, the only "expert" in this article is Dr Murad, and the reviews of his products were overwhelmingly negative! kind of a poorly constructed article.

I think the reality is 1. Genetics. 2. Your healthy diet. 3.Active lifestyle. We wear our life on our bodies and in our bodies.
