I had fraxel laser on my old, old stretchmarks and it didn't help at all! Paid almost $6,000. It was painful and not worth the money.

Will mederma or bio oil help with old stretchmarks? There is a site regarding stretch marks and that says massaging will fade new and old stretch marks- is that true?

Great review?
