Aloe vera gel first thing in the morning, bio oil at least 3 times a day then last thing before bed mix a few drops of teatree essential oil and use it like you would bio oil

I didn't get bad stretch marks but I use pure coconut oil to moisturise my skin and mine have completely faded now.

Trick with coconut oil is to keep the skin well moisturised, so any sign that it's starting to dry out, apply a little more. And with spots/scars/wounds etc, the trick is to apply quite a bit of pressure whilst massaging it into the affected area
