Do you need to know which anti-stretch mark cream to buy? StriVectin SD and Trilastin SR are the best sellers today. Both claim to prevent and eliminate stretch marks. Before you spend your money on either, see what we found when we reviewed them both.

StriVectin SD

You may hear ads for StriVectin all the time. However, it may be “Better Than Botox” for wrinkles and fine lines, but it is not very effective at removing stretch marks. Even when used liberally 2-3 times a day, stretch marks do not go away. Stretch marks seem to fade and lighten, but are still visible after a month of testing. Even plain cocoa butter seemed to give better results than this product.

It also had a very strong smell which was not unpleasant but may irritate some sensitive noses!

If you have wrinkles, this may be your answer, but for stretch marks… not so much.

Trilastine SR

Trilastin produced much more measurable improvements in the skin. Unlike StriVectin, Trilastin started working in a matter of days.

Unlike regular moisturizers, the makers claim that it stimulates the cell regeneration process and repairs old scars from stretch marks. Even women who had lived with their stretch marks for years saw them fade pretty quickly.

It also seemed to help prevent further stretch marks from developing in pregnant women by keeping stretched skin more elastic and resilient.

Since Trilastin is also less expensive than StriVectin, choosing the right stretch mark cream doesn’t have to be a difficult decision.
