Hi everyone, am new to this forum. Basically i have most lightening creams from:
Bio claire,
Kojic acid,
G&G (pink)
skin success
h5+
ambi
and Maxi light (which am currently using now)
my natural complexion is brown/caramel, Now after using Bio claire 6months ago i started getting stretch marks at first i thought it was the result of eating good but my weight never changed then i found out other people had the same results from using bio claire, Now these stretch marks are deep linning caused by extreme thinning off the skin. I used bio claire EVERYDAY for 2months morning and night i became 3shades lighter but now have these really nasty stretch marks
my question is can anyone recommend any scar/stretch mark treatments like
Oils, lotions, creams??
Ive never tried chemical peels so Does the Glycolic acid peels come as a lotion? cream? oil?
I'll look for centella asiatica and Retin-a gel. Ive tried Shea butter for stretch marks for over 4weeks and nothing has changed am guessing its because its not 100% pure shea butter.
For the GA it can be a lotion (15%) for everyday use or a peel that u do 1/month to begin with. In the first pic the scars seem knew, i guess u would have more chance to fade them with tretinoin cream or gel 0.1% Check the forum thera are lots of threads
1 girl in this forum faded her stretch marks on her body with 0.1%RA+Strivectin sd+Peel every 12 days...good luck

would i be able to use both methods, using the GA lotion and Peels??
When using GA peels do i use any other products with the GA like exfoliating creams and after treatment oils,creams ect?
I think it might be too much exfoliation to start with even if its the body part, overexfoliation can cause POst inflamatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), scars, burn the skin. Use the peels and lotions but not all at the same time, when u have done the peels, depends on your skin wait 24-48hours then u can bring back the GA lotion in your regimen. To start with, if u have never used AHA, peels, acids i suggest you start with 20% GA peel (do a test)
Does it peel when you use it? i use 15% on mine with raw shea butter mixed with bio oil and they are blending well with my skin. You need to be consistent though but it does work.
Sorry about that I hope you have stop using it. You can start to bluid your skin with shea butter for a while then switch to fair and white aha 2 and soap. Its a skin repair lotion and its exfoliate also turst me you love ur skin if you hv patience..
At Ajoa I have the fair and white aha2 lotion and soap, do I need to mix it with anything or I can use it like that with the soap.....thanks alot for your help.
Ooh ok very good ,but to see more of fair and white aha just give a break with the DH7 and use the aha 2times a day for a week then alternate with DH7. DH7 is nature so you won't redarken if you break .
No mixing my dear if you start using and you fell you wonna use as a lightener you can add in serum but is very good to use it alone. you can add latic acid to make it a bit stronger.
Ok I will use it for a week and see how my body likes it...thank you so so much...hugs n kisses....and oh I forgot to mention am breastfeeding at the moment hope the soap is safe.
You welcome My dear it's a brightener not so strong but not sure with this so let see what gymrat will say about its alright.
