They can get better: Depending on the severity of these marks, some topical retinoid creams can help. Careful tattooing may blend in quite well. Some cosmetic laser treatments can help, but I would say that we (medical community) do not have the ability to completely erase these marks at this point in time. Consult doc. Good luck

Can be faded, but...: There is no stretch mark removal lotion that really works. Stretch marks fade over time, but are permanent, even if they become much less noticeable over time. Sometimes, dermatologists can help improve the appearance of stretch marks with laser or infrared therapy. One can get opinions from a couple of local dermatologists.
