I Finally Found A Cream That Got Rid Of It
Hi,
My name is Linda Mccain. I am 29 years old(or young) and am a stay at home mom. About a year back I gave birth to two twins, Jonathan and Paul whom I now spend most of my time with throughout the day, feeding them, cuddling with them, teaching them new things and of course playing with them……like every 10 seconds. :-)However while these two were still inside me(probably kicking each other the way they do now) i.e during my pregnancy days I had gradually developed prominent stretch marks and scars by the sixth month of pregnancy around my belly region and abdomen which appeared as reddish lines in some areas. My doctor said that this was a common occurence among pregnant women and told me not to get worked up over it as it wasn’t going to harm me in anyway at all,but suggested that if I really wanted to get rid of it, I should go for either a laser treatment or a tummy tuck. I didn’t really want a complex procedure as I felt it was a bit unnecessary so I asked him whether there were any quality creams or lotions that would solve the problem and if he could recommend something useful. Although there were a few creams available he wouldn’t recommend any as he said they were unreliable as far as he knew and couldn’t guarantee that they would work. But since I was being enthusiastic about it he asked me to go ahead and give it a go.
So I went ahead and did a simple search on google for “stretch mark removal creams”. I found a couple of brands out of which Seatonic and Mederma seemed to be the more popular and reliable ones. I bought a bottle of each of these and religiously applied them for days together with hopes of getting rid of my unsightly stretch marks. After nearly 4 weeks of smothering myself with creams left right and center I was very much disappointed and frustrated as they were not working one bit and my stretch marks were still as prominent and stretched up as ever with no improvements at all. I thought of trying some other brands but then I didn’t want to waste any more money and decided to go for the laser treatment instead. So I fixed an appointment with my doctor and wanted to start the treatment as soon as possible as this was getting to be a real headache and nuisance. However, surprisingly this same doctor who had warned me against these stretch mark removal creams now tells me about a product for stretch marks that had just been launched from a company called Captiva which he claimed always came out with quality products based on the latest research and I should really give it a try.
So yeah I ordered it, got it a couple of days later and tried it out. I could see that the quality of the cream was much better but didn’t unnecessarily get my hopes up as stretch mark creams were now branded “unreliable” , “useless” and “Big waste of money” in my head. Well, five days later after applying this cream everyday, I could see that my stretch marks were actually starting to reduce and for once this cream actually had a decent smell unlike the other two which smelt more like floor cleaning solutions used in the hospital. Over the next two weeks with continuous application of this cream day after day, the scars and stretch marks gradually reduced and soon became barely visible. I was very happy with the results as this was indeed a quality product as my doctor claimed it to be and the manufacturers obviously took into account that people……..human beings would be using it(good smell) and not the rats living in my backyard. Below is a picture of my skin before and after using this cream. You can see the level of improvement I have had within a period of 2 weeks.
I know a lot of people are desperately looking out for stretch mark creams but the truth is very few of them actually work. I found out about Captiva only because of my doctor, whom I am very grateful to and I would like others who are looking for stretch mark treatments to know about it as well. I can only hope that other companies sincerely manufacture quality products like Captiva so that people don’t have to go in circles and waste their money and time trying to find something that actually works
So, anyway, Captiva still has this promotion(if you live in the US or Canada) going on so if you would like to try it out just visit their site below
Note:
Captiva’s stretch mark cream is currently only available to people who live in the United States and Canada. If you do happen to live in another country I would suggest that you try Revitol’s stretch mark cream which is available Worldwide. I have not personally tried Revitol’s stretch mark cream and do not claim that it works but have only heard that a number of people have found it to be quite effective.
