stretch marks

Hello all,
I had my baby girl 2 weeks ago. I've lost a lot of my belly, but of course still have more to go. My question is what can I do/use to lighten up my stretch marks?? I use bio oil my whole pregnancy but still have them on my sides and lower stomach. Thanks

You can lighten your stretch marks but it will take some time or years to see result. Stretch mark don't really disappear lol we can just minimize them by exercising or getting laser surgery

Honestly, I'm not sure. The ones on my side are a lot worse and darker then the ones on my lower stomach. I would say it helped, but didn't have the results I wanted. But I guess stretch marks aren't totally avoidable with any product. I know that it made my skin super soft. My belly felt like a baby's butt, still does and I'm 2 weeks post delivery. Lol

Mostly just time...i think there are expensive products out there, but not sure what to tell you to look for. Avon used to have a cream... Do you think the bio oil reduced them at all? Just wondered as i am trying it now.
