Well, ever since fall, I've noticed that I have developed stretch marks along the middle of my back the run horizontally. They are really easy to see, and I've gotten some questions about them and even a little crap for them. I'm almost ashamed to take my shirt off. I hear that they eventually will naturally fade away, but I wanted to know if there was any way to speed up the healing process. Thanks.

You could just use skin moisturiser cream, but I will take a while and may not be very effective... I would advise you see a dermatologist or a general doctor who can prescribe a cream like tretinoin, wihich will prove a lot more effective than moisturiser, but has to be prescribed, the only other option is laser removal, but I would stick with the creams ;)

Just use something like Vitamin E cream or something like Cocao Butter lotion. It's just cause of puberty, I had stretch marks on my stomach but now they're gone.

Bio oil. I've used it on my scars and it really worked. I've only just started using it again, and i'm using it on stretch marks now too. If how successful it is on scars is anything to go by, it'll work well fairly quickly.

i have a few on my back too. pretty sure it's from losing a lot of weight maybe, if that's possible.
you can massage them with vitamin e creams but i don't as they just look like the other 1000 scars i have on my back:P
