Does olive oil really work to get rid of stretch marks?  

I've never heard of the olive oil claim. That sounds a little strange, but then again, I don't know everything. : ) I know that if you drink a lot of water, and massage flaxseed oil on your stretch makers, it makes them less noticeable, if not completely removing them. Also, using cocoa butter has been proven to be beneficial. But the only fool proof way I know of is laser treatment. Like a chemical peel.

Its possible, the olive oil thing. Jeanne Calment of france lived to 122 and she attributed her longevity to olive oil consumption and olive oil skin application. If you need another tip queenie, look at my responses to some of your topics.

In my opinion the best products for issues like that is Palmer's Brand. My best friend rubbed Palmer's cocoa butter on her belly daily through both her preganancies (her kids are EXACTLY 2 years apart) and she does not have even the slightest sign of even one stretch mark and both her mother and sister got them so we beleive it was the product and her dedication to it, and not good genes or anything that achieved this for her. You can look at the at www.etbrown.com/ and they have a store locater on the site, I buy these products at Walmart, they are great for daily use as well as for stretch mark issues. They have a few products specifically for stretch marks.

i have a few friends who haved used olive oil and it worked.a mixture of olive oil and herbs,also castro oil makes them fade.also another good idea is aloe vera gel and fresh lemon juice mixture helps fade them extremely well.these tips do work,you just have to be persistant and do it a few times a week.

Vitamin E is pretty good for cellular upkeep, especially the skin and organs. If you use a supplement make sure to take it with food, since the human body can better absorb E vitamins with solid foods.

Very good topic for discussion, not that I have something to share but I would love to hear beauty and health tips like this one. I have never been preggy yet but I have some stretch marks at the back of my knee and another part of my body and I have been looking for solutions. I know I could google it but I want to hear real people talk about it and testify that a product or something really works for them.
Just recently I have been hearing a lot about the benefits of olive oil and I'm always open-ears to more information.
By the way, you can already guess what I'm gonna buy at my next trip to the grocery store.

This is a very nice discussion. I also have stretched marks in my body too when I got pregnant. And like most women it also bother me how to atleast lessen the marks in my skin. I will try to use olive oil too. I hope that it will be effective on me.

yes,olive oil is useful for fighting the stretch marks but you wouldn't get them out of your skin totaly.they will get thinner and no such visible so you can try it.olive oilis a very good product with so many usings and helpful in many situations

yeah, it will work, but you have to keep on putting olive oil while your tummy is growing..

Getting rid of stretch marks is rather a difficult task. The most effective way to handle this problem is to follow a proper care routine that prevents their occurrence. Massaging on the stretch marks serves as an excellent home remedy for stretch marks removal. You can either use olive oil, flaxseed oil, vitamin E oil or cod liver oil for the purpose of massage.
