Babsie... we talked before about tummy tucks and stretch marks... would you happen to know what if anything can be done about this kind???

How far up do they go? What color and how deep is the stretch? My work out partner is a plastic surgeon. I can ask him tonight when I go to the gym. There are lotions out there, but it only minimizes the appearance. Have you tried tanning and shortly after, applying Buttermilk lotion?

Here's a pic so you can see for yourself

The skin is actually ripped and thinner then my normal skin.

When I tan they aren't as noticeable. I can't see how a cream would make them go away unless it re-grew skin.

I appreciate you asking your plastic surgeon friend!!!

BabsieGirl · 09-30-2003, 08:15 PM

BF -- I talked to him and with those stretchmarks. And where they're located, you could get away with a mini-abdominal plasty. When they do that, they also go in and tighten the tummy muscles and do some lipo suction as well. I'm sure he'd do some lipo around the hip region as well, so the outcome is better. The cut will be bikini level so no one will know, but you. Depending on your skin elasticity, you could do a full abdominal plasty. But, seeing that your stretch marks aren't located all the way up to the rib cage, a mini would do the trick. You'd be off work for about 3 weeks. But should be up and walking around immediately after surgury to avoid blood clots. You'll also have drain tubes put it, which would be removed in a week. He does amazing work.

Other than that, you're correct. Tanning will minimize the appearance. But mentally, you still know they're there. By doing the mini. Your confidence will boost.

Hope this helps.
