I have some on my arm too, Susan. I had REALLY bad asthma as a child and the only thing that helped me was a medicine called prednisone, which had steroids in it. I gained quite a bit of weight pretty quickly, hence the marks. I’m happy and now healthy so I don’t even let them bother me too much. I have been using a product from "Avon called Solutions Stretchmark 24 Line Reducing Treatment": http://shop.avon.com/shop/product.aspx?pf_id=39502 for about a month and they seem to be fading. I imagine they’ll never go away completely but they’ve certainly gotten better so I highly recommend. I plan on airbrushing what’s left of them for the wedding. Regardless though, we’ll both look amazing and no one will even notice them.
