Stretch marks

After about 8 weeks I got loads of dark stretch marks.. I was told I wouldn’t get any due to the implants being small.

I’m using bio oil but wondered if anyone had any advice to help?

Also wondering if it’s okay to use sunbeds or will it make them worse?

Thanks x

I had really dark pink stretch marks from about 4-6 weeks (I’ve lost track of the time now) below the nipple and around the side, but with lots of bio-oil use they are starting to fade, going paler pink and less noticeable. I was so upset when I first noticed them, but even after a month or so they are disappearing – so don’t dispair, they will fade!! x

@ellie sorry to hear about your stretch marks… I didn’t even think about getting them… Naive hey!!! I haven’t used anything on my boobs yet as I’m not 6wks post op and didn’t think you were supposed to use anything til this point? But when I was pregnant I used palmers body butter (for stretch marks) I swear by this stuff as I used it every day and have been lucky not to get any… I will be reinvesting in this for my boobies next week!! X

You’re ok to use products on your boobs as long as you don’t get anything onto your scars until your 6 week check up! The coco butter is good too, but I prefer the bio-oil x

Swear by the palmers cocoa butter too, use this daily anyway, but swapped to the stretch mark version during my pregnancies which included twins and not 1 single stretch mark.
