Question

I've got these dark spots and areas of darker skin on my bum, plus some stretch marks, and while I'm usually confident about my body, these things make me feel a bit uncomfortable. Could you help me figure out a solution?

The dark spots and dark skin around them may be due to hyperpigmentation. You can use a cream containing hydroquinone and tretinoin to lighten the dark spots. Apply it once at night for a few weeks. For the stretch marks, you can use a cream containing retinoids and hyaluronic acid to improve their appearance. Remember to use sunscreen during the day to protect your skin."
