HI. Stretch marks are best attended to in their early stages. REd stretch marks are young and you must use - creams prescribed on the affected areas. This will help to a certain extent. However, procedural treatments - especially - Fractional CO 2 laser works the best for stretch marks.
So its best you see a qualfied dermatologist near you and atleast start off with the creams. Once the marks stabilize a bit - laser treatment can be done.
Warm regards,
