Except the pregnancy stretch marks, all the other negative aspects of child bearing are forgotten with the baby’s arrival. But marks are always unwelcome. These marks have pinkish or reddish tinge in the early stages. They turn white with time.

In the first place, it is important to remember that these marks appear when the stomach gets back to its original shape after the delivery. Though, using oils and lotions to clear these marks would be the ideal solution, it takes a long time to be erased. Moreover, a complete wipe off does not happen. This problem can be tackled with the use of some temporary methods.

These methods include:

1. Use appropriate clothes.
Wear clothes that would hide these marks. Remember the stretch scars, while shopping for new clothes.

2. Use Lotions and hiding lotions.
Just as many ladies use the concealing elements to hide the pimple marks on the face, you can use them to hide the post natal marks on your tummy. Use a shade that matches your skin tone. This would have a similar to the skin. Powdering over the cream to cover the lines would have a perfect effect.

3. Tattoo
Use tattoo designs to cover these marks. You may take the help of professional tattoo designers to paint your belly portion. If this idea does not appeal, you may try using henna designs that can be wiped off whenever you want.

4. Use of suntan liquid to darken the area is another creative step.

5. Using elegant dresses to distract a person from noticing the marks is yet another innovative idea.

Using alternate methods may not be the same as using remedies to remove the marks, but these innovative ideas help in hiding the marks whenever a lady wants. These options are better than opting for cosmetic surgery or other medical interventions.

Drink a lot of liquid and lead a healthy life style. One good and cost effective option would be to plant some Aloe-Vera plants near your home and cut a leaf to use the gel. Rub the gel on your tummy portion. Doing so for a long time will help to erase the post natal stretch marks. Aloe is known to be highly effective for skin problems.
