What type of lotion can i take off stretch marks?

"Stretchmarks" are generally from damage to the elastic properties of skin, and cannot be removed by any lotion. Cosmetic surgery (which also of course leaves scars), can reduce the amount of stretch marks, but the condition is unfortunately otherwise permanent.

Prescribed medications: tretinoin or hyaluronic acid lotion. Regarding home remedies: in studies, popular home remedies have not worked. Researchers found that none of the stretch marks faded when people massaged almond oil, cocoa butter, olive oil, or vitamin E into their stretch marks.
