the only way is laser treatment unfortunately to permanently erase them

Stretch marks aren't so bad. At least you'll look like a tiger :juji:

They will never go away and your skin in that area has lost most of its elasticity. They will however become less noticeable with time (going pale).

It is more commonly called 'freshman 15', but it is where highschool kids who go to college become less active and consume more food and alcohol usually putting on an excess of 10 lbs.

Haha....i doubt that will happen to me, with more time on my hands i will probably become more active

Can't you get stretch marks from lifting?

I have them on my shoulders and lower back. They bugged me for about a day until I didn't care anymore. They are faded though as Rahf stated they would (not white though they just blend in a lot more). I've had them for 5+ years.

You should be proud of them if they are from gaining lots of muscle...but not if they're from bodyfat : (
