23M. I don’t know when or how these got so bad. I don’t think I’ve had rapid weight changes. I’m unsure if the photo does it justice.

I’ve noticed them more lately, and they have really affected my confidence and comfort, especially during intimacy.

I’ve evidently had some of them for a while as they’re white/silverly. I did develop stretch marks around puberty.

I’m most bothered by the deep texture/atrophic element of these stretch marks. My goal would be to fill them so they’re much flatter and firmer.

I would like to explore treating them at home following proper procedures.

Would a retinoid help any of them at this stage?
