Unhappy

I got some weird lines on my thies. They look kinda like stretchmarks, but i can't get it into my head that i have stretchmarks! I'm only 16 for christ sake!
They are white and most of them are going horisontal on my thies.

Can it be because i'm growing too fast? Will it go away?

EDIT: Kind of like this

Yuk!

i got them when i was in highschool too- i wasn't sure what was happening, then someone explained to me that they're stretch marks. mine haven't gone away and i'm 21 now. if someone DOES have a way to make them go away that would be great, if not that's ok- i've learned to live with them.

I'm 37. I've had stretch marks on my calves and a couple of other places that grew too quickly since I was a teenager. I've had a kid. Wanna talk about pregnancy stretch marks? There is no cure...but my advice would be to start using a cream that advertises to help with pregnancy stretch marks...there are tons out there. I can't recommend one since I didn't even know about them when I needed them. Don't worry about it, not much you can do about growin.

It's definetly not relegated to women. I got the on my inner thighs from a muscle growth spurt around 16 as well. As said above. They don't go away.

i've got some stretch marks right where my shoulders meet my chest. im thinking about trying Mederma.

btw, they fade in time but never completely go away without surgery (because the marks are scars).

Got 'em as a teenager too (20+ years ago) and still have them on my inner thighs and just above the arm pits. As everyone has said they'll fade over time.

I have them all over. Biceps. All over the knees (too many swollen knees an surgeries), and (dangit), by the hipbones/obliques. Like Gina, they don't tan as much. Unlike Gina, I really tan! [img]tongue.gif[/img] j/k JJ!

I'm like one big stretch mark myself, biceps, armpits, stomach, and inner thigh.

I was wondering, there's been a commercial that I keep hearing on the radio for a product called Scarguard. As stretch marks are a type of scar, I wonder how effective these are.

Forget the otc stuff you see at the drugstore. Talk to your dermatologist if you would like to treat your stretch marks. There is at least one prescription cream which can significantly (not always of course) reduce the appearance of stretch marks. I believe the cream was originally formulated to treat acne scarring. I am sorry that I can't remember the name, but your dermatologist will know. It is a prescription drug.

Hello, guys!

I lost a lotta pounds lately after starting the "heroin diet" a prescribed by fashion models world wide and, of course, there were some nasty stretch marks around my rotten pie hole left behind. Probably from years of chain smoking and working on the side in the porn industry as a "fluffer". The only thing that really worked for me was an excellent stretch mark cream produced by the stars of the movies I worked on, a cream based on the great properties of Rocco, Clay, and Rambone included in the Aslaspermal line. It worked beautifully on those gruesome stretch marks!

Hey Deena,
What's these thing about creams based on clay that do great things for stretch marks!!! These is a lot of crap... i tryed natural products on my stretched out sphincter and i don't trust them anymore. I am useing right now products from Hormel that started to work for me... And now my stretch marks very much dimished. I pack my deep stretch scars with Spam and wrap my body in gauze every night. My sheets smell like something died in my bed now, but my marks are improving. Actually, someone did die in my bed... My ex-boyfriend who stretched me out like this. One night I decided I was fed up with him and I packed his nostrils and mouth with SPAM, and he suffocated. I don't know what to do with the body so I stowed it under the bed. Maybe that's where that smell is coming from.

Hello everybody, my name is Julie and I heard from another person some stuff about these products(they are made from natural ingredients and bla,bla,bla...)
I would like to know if they work also for hair related problems(dyhidration,falling hair, etc). I'm now almost completely bald, which doesn't look good with my glass eye, pug nose (got that from my mothers' side of the family), and massive buck teeth. With my last thin patch of hair I am doing a comb-over, but it doesn't seem to work as I still can't get any boyfriends. Maybe I should let boys know that I'm really easy.
I've a serious problem and all the products I tried ,untill now, didn't have any effects!

Dear Cryss and Julia,

I can guarantee you that you won't regret using this! It's hard work extracting this miracle product. If you're as ugly as you sound, maybe you should just hang out at a rest stop and work a "glory hole" for a few hours. You just have to go and check it out and see its ingredients are 100% man made. Moreover, I'm the case study you need and the living proof that this cream definitely works! And this will happen in almost no time! Now if only I could do something about my worthless husband. Maybe suffocation by SPAM would be a suiting end to him. He hates my job and always complains. I told him if he weren't impotent he could make a difference in my haggard appearance, but he said that he's only impotent with me!

Anyway, I wish good luck and a perfect skin!

Hey Deena, i will stick to my (horribly misspelled) oppinions, that natural products don't do anything to improve the problem.... belive me i have tried these products and i got an incredible rash all over my crotch and inner thighs....So drop it!!! Then again, that might be from attempting intercourse with my ex-boyfriend's rottwieler... What am I supposed to do? He's dead, and the rigormortis isn't helping anymore now that he's starting to shrivel up.
FOr my skin I still belive that the best products are those from Hormel! It really turns the dog on!

Bye!

For Julia alone:

Of course, dear! You can use both the Multi-spermal shampoo and the mask which will regenerate and strengthen your last few hairs. So, you can say good bye to falling hair. Can't help you with mug... Sounds like you are doomed to an empty, lonely life. Maybe you should try jogging on a busy interstate!

Crysss, what kind of problem did you had?
Maybe you used the wrong product. Seriously, after you go to jail for killing your boyfriend, maybe you can work a deal with the guards. The problem with your SPAM wrap is that sometimes dogs don't know when to stop and they bite off parts of your body you would really miss, like one of your eyes!
I myself tried some natural products and they worth it, this I can say for sure.
One thing I would like to know is if can order The ASLASPERMAL products from the Net or they have any kind of subsidiaries here in the States?

Uh... Julia/Crysss/Deena, exactly how stupid do you think we are? Seriously. I don't know whether to simply delete you or find some creative way to publicly humiliate you. Let me just say that I DESPISE spammers coming in to this forum, and it infuriates me even more when they hijack a good thread and insult everyone's intelligence.

Well, don't fret... When I get time (client's waiting at the moment) I will deal with "all three" of you. Stay out of my forum!

Geez, the least you could do is be a little more creative in spamming. Posting all at once in an old topic kind of put up a red flag

JP...you don't need to publicly humiliate her. She did that herself in her writing. Julia/Deena/Crysss...you could use a course in spelling and grammar. Not a dig...just a helpful suggestion for someone trying to sell a product.
