Red Marks On Upper Thighs, Looking Like Stretch Marks. Treatment?

Hi. My age is 22. Im a girl. I have got red marks on upper thighs and it has really become dark now (kinda brown). It looks like stretch marks. I had consulted a skin specialist few months back and she asked me to apply some lotion on it but these marks are still the same. One of my beautician asked me to apply tinaderm solution but Im not sure about it. Im afraid that the marks would remain permanent. I really need help! :(

Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic
Tinaderm solution is an anti fungal solution and it would not work for stretch marks.
You can massage a thick moisturizing cream preferably one containing aloe vera twice a day.
If you can get Palmer's cocoa butter formula massaging cream for stretch marks well and good.
There are procedures like fractional lasers, dermarollers and RF for stretch marks, but costly.
Hope this helped.
Take care
