I've got these three lines on my stomach that I thought were from when I was heavier. Now that I've lost weight, I still have them. What can be done to make them go away?

To help reduce the appearance of stretch marks, you can try using a topical cream containing Tretinoin. Apply a thin layer of Tretinoin cream on the affected area once daily at night. Additionally, you can also consider using a cream containing Hyaluronic Acid to improve skin hydration and elasticity. Make sure to consult with a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment options.
