can't get rid of them, maybe a plastic surgeon can do some kind of laser treatment? who knows, but without anything drastic, coca butter is only temporary fix as well as other solutions.

I said "back" not "black"  ::)  It seems you're the one with the skin tissue issue.

i doubt it.......

rub oil on ur skin after ur shower/workout...... baby oil or something to keep the skin from being dry enough to stretch into a scar

u can also watch ur diet...if ur carrying a lot of bodyfat and ur bodyfat is increasing aswell as muscle then ur likely to get stretch marks....

try droping ur bodyfat to a comfy level and the skin will only have to cope with ur muscle gains and not ur fat and muscle gains.......

I'm talking natural skin color. My wife has had two kids. The stretch marks on her stomach are way more noticeable due to her color than on a white woman

No way.  But can you tell us, is it true Vince Goodrum is no longer in the black race.  Inquiring minds want to know

Try small touches of liquid vitamin E.  Then...use an ethnic fade cream daily.  You should get some clearance.  If not...then consult a person who specializes on brown skin...not these jimmies.

you can't do anything about the ones you have, but they will fade somewhat with time.

you can however prevent getting further more stretchmarks by not gaining weight to fast, i.e. not "bulking up".

gain weight slowly. what you want is quality weight anyway, not fat.

also, some say zink helps with elasticity of the skin.
