Not usually no, stretch marks are scars. They are caused by tearing of the dermis, and over time can diminish but not disappear completely. Stretch marks are the result of the rapid stretching of the skin associated with rapid growth (common in puberty) or weight gain (e.g. pregnancy). Although the skin is fairly elastic, rapid stretching of the skin will leave permanent stretch marks.

There are ways to help hide them though...check out that link.

i think so

I don't think they completely disappear. But I do know that Cocoa butter helps.

they wouldnt go away, but they will fade to the color of the surrpunding area less noticeable

streach marks are there to stay they do lessen a bit and fade but there is nothing you can do about it.

nop. sorry won't go. no cream or treatment will clear them. they'll just fade a little, change colors according to skin. i asked a plastic surgeon who's a friend abt it. i have them from gaining and losing weight fast. he said it's not worth it, nothing will show me real change. i won't even notice the difference.

They do go away but not on their own. There are creams for that.

maybsssss

No they don't go away. They can get lighter though if you use cocoa butter.
