Default Stretch marks?

Yeah, I guess it's a little weird that a teenage boy has stretch marks..at least I think they're stretch marks. I googled it and what I found looks pretty similar to what I see on my arms, hips, and a few other places. Is there ANY way to get rid of these ugly things or will I forever be reminded that I used to be overweight?

It's not uncommon for teens to have stretch marks. After some time they should start to get less and less noticable. There are also teatments for it but I'm not sure how well they work

Stretch marks occur whenever the skin is stressed by rapid expansion - growth spurts, weight gain, or simple development (mostly in girls' hips and breasts) are completely normal. They fade to be a lot less noticable in time.

I think you can use lotion with cocoa butter and that helps too. Or something with vitamin E.

As it's been said, over time the stretch marks will grow fainter before eventually disappearing almost altogether.
