You will have to put up with both sides. This board is not just for those that believe one way and ignore reality.

You can't peel away stretch marks! Why would anyone have a tummy tuck when they can just buy a bottle of miracle acid that removes stretch marks? BECAUSE you can't burn off a stretchmark, thats why. Stretch marks are comprised of skin that is deficient. It has sustained an injury that did not cause a wound but it left the skin void of glands that secrete dna. So why would anyone want to burn this skin if it is in disrepair? The secret to getting rid of stretchmarks is to work on getting the skin back to good health by forcing it to secrete dna again. You can smother a stretch mark with silicone pads or even tape (not recommended because you can get silicone in scar kits). By cutting the air supply off to the stretch mark you are forcing it to hydrate itself through sweating. There are glands and folicles but they are very weak from being pulled apart but they can be repaired! The more you commit to doing your own treatment on these marks using silicone scar patches,.wearing them to bed and under clothes, the faster you will see promising results. Some stretch marks however are very deep and cannot be smoothed over due to atrophy. When we speak about skin miracles we are always addressing skin that has not suffered huge atrophy (loss of firmness from weight gain/loss/regain). If the skin is taut and has elasticity and the marks are not measurably deep, you can get a good result by using the silicone (suffocation) method. If your skin can produce sweat and oil and grow a folicle, it is capable of 100% recovery.
Koijro, what do you make of this? Can it truly be this simple?

Okay. Well I hope you enjoy being negative--why don't you just keep it to yourself though? I am not going to comment on your negative remarks.

I'm having to use Retin-A a lot less often on mybreasts , as am suffering EXTREME irritation - I think i'll put it on there once or twice a week only for a while... elsewhere it's cuasing no probs, which also makes me wonder if it's genuine (and whether I just have excema probs on my breasts). So if anyone has any experience of Retin-A purchased from Pharmacy2u that would be much appreciated.
I'm sorry if I lowered the tone of the board.. but I'm not going to postr about results I'm not seeing. It doesn't mean I don't believe other people or want to find an answer... sheesh.

I am happy for you all that you remain so optimistic, but I think your time could be devoted to trying out new things as opposed to things which dermatologists feel does not help and which a lot of members of this board have tried with no success. Everyone's skin is different and what works for some may not work for others, and I was much more willing to believe that until someone on this board pointed out what J had posted on another website.
