Dear allnatural,

Many girls get stretch marks on their breasts, and both guys and girls get them on other areas of the body. This is because the skin can't always keep up with the growth happening beneath it. Stretch marks may start out pink or red and raised, but will eventually fade and be much less noticeable. Stretch marks are totally normal and aren't a medical concern.

Hope this information helps!

Take care,
