White sugar is often used to reduce stretch marks. Sugar has the property to exfoliate the skin and thus the scars are lightened and so are the stretch marks as the dead skin is removed. A paste should be made which have to be applied over the affected area for about a month or more for at least 10 to 15 minutes before taking the shower, in order to remove stretch marks.

The paste which is rubbed on the skin can either be made by mixing one tablespoon of sugar with little amount of almond oil and one small spoon of lemon juice or by mixing sugar, olive oil and whole milk, all in equal proportions. Scrub the paste gently over scars for better results.

Aloe Vera is considered as an effective plant which can be used for treating many skin problems. It consists of various nutrients and compounds that are used to reduce stretch marks. There are many ways in which Aloe Vera can be used to treat scars. We can either directly rub the gel made from Aloe Vera plant for few minutes on the marks or we can also make a paste by mixing Aloe Vera gel with olive oil, Vitamin A oil and Vitamin E oil. We should use lukewarm water to rinse the skin. It is advisable to rub the paste on the scars daily and thoroughly until it is fully absorbed by the skin.

Intake of healthy diet which is rich in Vitamins and minerals is one of the best home remedy to avoid and also to treat stretch marks. Vitamin C is considered best to remove stretch marks and thus it should be consumed in higher amounts. Also, drinking minimum of ten glasses of water per day, helps to keep the body well hydrated, and thus results in detoxification of the skin which thereby reduces stretch marks. We should try and minimize the consumption of tea, coffee and soda in our diet as they can lead to dehydration.

Lemon juice because of its acidic nature is used in treatment of many skin problems such as stretch marks, acne, skin injuries and other marks. Lemon juice is either applied directly over the skin in a circular motion for about 10 to 15 minutes to treat stretch marks or a mixture of lemon juice and cucumber juice can also be used in the same procedure stated above, to get rid of stretch marks. It is considered as one of the simplest way to lessen the ugly scars which are present on the skin.

Many different types of oils are also used to lighten stretch marks. Olive oil, Rose oil, Lavender oil, Frankincense oil, Myrrh oil, Geranium oil and Helichrysum oil are the commonly used oils to treat stretch marks. Oil has to be applied on the scars and massaged gently for 20 to 30 minutes until all the vitamins are absorbed by the skin. This also improves blood circulation apart from treating stretch marks. We can also warm the oil for more effective results. Olive oil is considered best due to its antioxidant nature and the availability of a lot of nutrients.

Vitamins and minerals present in potato are responsible for the restoration and foster growth of the skin cells which thence results in the removal of stretch marks. Potato should be cut in thick slices which are then rubbed gently on the marks for 15 minutes. Make sure that the potato slices should be thick and the liquid which comes out of potato should cover the area affected by stretch marks. Leave the area to dry after massaging and then after 10 minutes when the potato juice has dried up  wash it with lukewarm water. Follow this procedure everyday for a month to get rid of stretch marks completely.

Proteins and amino acids are considered very effective for the removal of stretch marks completely. As we all know, that eggs contains proteins in rich amounts, therefore using egg whites is also a remedy that can be used to take away stretch marks. Take two eggs and whip the whites of with the help of a fork gently. Before applying it on the affected area, make sure to clean the skin with water. Layer of egg whites applied should be thick and uniform. Leave the paste for 15 minutes and after the drying of the egg whites rinse it off with cold water. Do not forget to apply olive oil after rinsing the affected area as it will moisturize the skin and also provides faster results.

Cocoa butter is another beneficial ingredient that can be used in treating scars. It can be either applied directly over the stretch marks two times a day for at least two months or a mixture can also be made by using cocoa butter, wheat germ oil, grated beeswax, apricot kernel oil and vitamin E oil all together and heating the mixture until it melts. The mixture then has to be cooled and thereafter applied over stretch marks three times a day. Cocoa butter not only removes stretch marks but also hydrates and smoothen the skin.

Coffee is an excellent stretch mark removal component. Grind the beans of coffee in an unsmooth texture. Make a paste by mixing the powder with water and apply this paste over the scars. Keep this scrub over the skin for two minutes and then wipe it off with a warm cloth. Rinse the skin with water thereafter and apply oil or moisturizer for effective results.
