A member asked:

What can i do to get rid of my dark stretch marks? they're so ugly n i am deperate to get rid of them! please help!

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See Plastic Surgeon: Treatment will depend on where your stretch marks are located. Some areas of the body can be treated surgically if there is a large amount of excess skin from weight loss. A plastic surgeon or dermatologist may be able to help you depending on the location and severity of the "striae".
