How Long Does It Take for Stretch Mark Oil to Work?

💡 The Truth About Stretch Mark Oils: Patience Pays Off

You’ve just started using a stretch mark oil—maybe post-pregnancy, after weight loss, or due to PCOS—and you’re wondering:

“How long before I actually see results?”

The answer isn’t one-size-fits-all, but the right formulation + consistency = visible improvement over time.

In this blog, we’ll break down the stretch mark fading timeline, what to expect in each phase, and how WildOak’s bakuchiol-based Stretch Mark Oil Serum helps accelerate those results—safely.

📖 First, Let’s Understand the Nature of Stretch Marks

Stretch marks, or striae, are small tears in the dermis caused by sudden stretching of the skin. Common causes include:

-Pregnancy

-Weight gain or loss

-Growth spurts

-Hormonal imbalances (like PCOS)

-Bodybuilding

When fresh, they appear red, purple, or pink. Over time, they fade into white or silver—a sign the skin is healing but scarred.

🧬 How Long Does It Actually Take for a Stretch Mark Oil to Work?

Here's a realistic breakdown based on dermatological studies and user experience:

Consistency is key. Use stretch mark oil twice daily for at least 8 weeks to see meaningful change.
