Although creams don't take away stretch mark scarring, they can lighten them. You may want to talk to your dermatologist and see what creams they would recommend.
You need to see an experienced doctor concerning your problem because topical creams/lotions can help. But it has to be the right ones. This may be a trial of a cream that does not help and needs to be changed. The doctor will recognize this and make a change.
