QuestionHow can I hide very noticeable scratch marks? I've tried tanning but it's not workingCommunity AnswerStay hydrated, moisturize your skin daily and try to use Retinoic acid cream, cocoa butter, shea butter or coconut oil. Don't apply all of them at once, and remember that some creams may not work depending on what type of skin you have. Try and stay away from the sun because it can make stretch marks more noticeable. If none of these work, consult a doctor.
