Hello,
Thank you for posting on HCM.
It seems you are having stretch marks and skin tags.
Stretch marks also known as striae are often the result of the rapid stretching of the skin associated with rapid growth or rapid weight changes. Stretch marks may also be influenced by hormonal changes associated with puberty, pregnancy, bodybuilding, hormone replacement therapy etc
Stretch marks are notorious to treat and results of the treatment is highly variable.
Try applying tretinoin 0.1% gel (NEXRET 0.1%)at bedtime.
Also apply glycolic acid 12% (GLYCO-A ) cream in evening.
Apply vit E rich cream or oil (Markline cream, E-vit Oil)in morning.
Also, cosmetic procedures like Yellow peel/Chemical peeling, microdermabrasion, laser therapy, Mesotherapy can be tried for augmented results.
Hope this will take care of your query.
Skin tags are basically benign growth of skin and the best treatment would be removal by electrocautery by a certified dermatologist.
Thank you
