Anyone Tried Bio Oil For Stretch Marks



Recommended Posts

Has anyone used bio oil or any other products for stretch marks or scars?

It doesn't work. I got some bio oil from a conference I attended and decided to use it as recommended. Nothing. . . .so now I just use the rest that is left over for dry skin, which doesn't work all that well either. . . sorry. . . I'm just really glad it was free, but just because it didn't work for me, doesn't mean it won't work for you. . . good luck

My granddaughter has used it since the dat she found out she was pregnant. It has prevented stretch marks. As far as getting rid of ones that are already there, I am not sure if anything can do that!

what i am using, which have helped before with my stomach marks is a mixture of pure virgin olive oil with 100% pure and real Shea butter.. The Shea butter you can get at any beauty store it comes in a small 4oz tube and its clumpy, very solid dark gry in color n it smells good!.. just use any bottle n put the butter in the bottle n add as much olive oil to get a smooth consistancy, doenst matter if there are clumps u can just spread it over it.. stays in the whole. From the times i have used it in the past it has tremendously fade my stretch marks, you can only see them if u are literally bending unto my stomach...other than that i just started using it 6 days op .

My co-worker also used 100% shea butter and you can barely see her surgery scars so I think that's the direction I will go in. Thanks everyone for your responses.

Very helpful!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
