A member asked:
Could bio-oil and retinol from ordinary brand be mixed to after stretch marks treatment as booster? or the ingredients together may cause irritation ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
"Stretch marks" are unfortunately not effectively removed by topical medication, as they are a result of damage to underlying dermal tissue. Surgical options also leave scars, but in some cases can improve cosmetically these conditions.
