Get rid of stretch marks?

I have prom coming up in April and I don't want people to notice my stretch marks while I'm wearing my gorgeous dress. What should I do??

It may be hard to believe, but you are definitely not alone. Stretch marks appear on almost everyone's body - on breasts, butts, thighs, stomachs, you name it! Experts say the marks are tiny tears that show up when your skin grows or stretches quickly. Unfortunately, there is no miracle cream that will make them go away. Just remember, your squiggly marks are normal, and they may fade somewhat over time. You can think of them as badges of honor from your teen years!
