Hi there, Like a couple of the other Aunts have said Bio Oil is really good for stretch marks and scar marks. Also any creams containing vitimin E, like Palmers Cocoa butter.
Take care

Stretchmarks are quite common throughout puberty as you go through growth spurts which cause the skin to stretch and leave stretch marks.
Bio Oil is goos, but I have found cocoa butter to be excellent, massage it in daily, as often as you like/can. Particyularly Palmers cocoa butter, you can buy it from Tesco's for a few quid, and there's quite a good range of products, cream, oil, with aloe vera, etc.

i would try not to even worry about them they are proberly where you had a growth spurt recently, and im sure they look much worse to you then anyone else who will see them! over time they will go white and be hardly visible especially on your inner thigh, try not to stress coz there really isnt much you can do about them.

Have you recently put on weight or lost weight??
This could be one of the reasons.
There are many moisturisers that you could use, some specialy designed for stretch marks. Although they will not dissapear completely these will lighten them so they are less visible.
Vasaline intensive care with aloe vera is one that i used when i was preganant and i have no stretch marks.
Also a balanced diet wil help.
Make sure you are maintaining healthy skin! Drink plenty of water it helps prevent stretch marks, too! Proper water intake keeps your skin soft and less likely to develop stretch marks. Caffeine can increase your risk of stretch marks. If you're stuck on your caffeinated coffee or tea, make sure you balance the fluids. Drink just as much - or more - water as you drink coffee, tea or soda.
Remember, stretch marks can also result from nutritional deficiency. Be sure to consume foods that promote skin health.
Zinc-rich foods such as nuts or fish
Foods high in vitamins A, C, D, such as carrots, citrus fruits and milk.
Protein-rich foods (such as eggs).
You could also try using a tanning solution or getting a tan this can help.
Or go and see a dermatoligist nd express your worries to them they can refer you to the correct type of treatment.
Good luck and remeber you are stil beautiful.
