 Hi chintana,
Mild stretch marks do fade over time and there are some studies that suggest that vitamin E applied to the areas helps. Sunscreen applied also decreases the redness that accompanies sun exposure. While some areas will fade more than others they may not completely disappear. Best wishes.
Sincerely,
Theresa Jones, RN
