Stretch marks can be prevented by moisturizing the skin throughout the pregnancy. Using good quality oil such as coconut or olive oil helps in preventing stretch marks. Even cocoa butter is very effective for stretch marks. I found Aloe vera gel very effective in getting rid of stretch marks. If applied regularly, it removes stretch marks completely and this is the simplest herbal solution for stretch marks. Aloe vera gel can be made at home also and is equally effective.
Aloe vera gel is very good for stretch marks especially if it is freshly made. Cocoa butter is equally effective. It is a great moisturiser and smoothens the skin. Regular application will keep skin soft and glowing. Cocoa butter should be of pure quality and applied twice a day.
