Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Dreading the thought of any type of invasive procedures, and constantly seeing advertisements that say "Better then Botox?" (with a quote from a Doctor)for StriVectin-SD, and even though it looked to be expensive, I decided to give this product a try. StriVectin is advertised as both an intensive concentrate for Existing Stretch Marks, and as a significant reducer of fine lines, wrinkles, crows' feet and dark under eye circles. My purpose was for the fine lines, wrinkles,and dark circles, as stretch marks is probably the one thing my body has not been subjected too. So my review will not deal with that aspect, but I would encourage anyone who has tried it for use as a stretch mark reducer to leave a review or comment on my review so that others interested in that can have an idea of it's effectiveness for that.
So I used this product pretty religiously as directed for 3 months. Applying 3 times a day to my face and throat(okay once in a while, only 2 times a day, as I didn't always have it with me), and the first thing I noticed was it was excellent as a moisturizer. My skin still felt silky smooth and firmer in the morning. After a few weeks, I began to see what I perceived as some improvement around my eyes(dark circles and fine lines),and was really jazzed about that. For the next couple of months, I was really hoping that I would see more dramatic results as time went by("Better then Botox?"). I saw some,and the appearance of the deeper wrinkles were also slightly minimized, but nothing as dramatic as I expected. No one said to me that I looked "10-15 years younger"..or even said anything at all. And I think if I would have had Botox, someone would have remarked on the difference.I did notice some slight improvement in one area I hadn't expected. After I went through menopause, the skin on my throat, became very very dry and left a bit of a "mask" in that area. To me it appeared a little less noticeable.
Would I buy it again?? Yes. As a moisturizer I found it most effective.If I was just rating that aspect I would go 5 stars.I also did see some difference in problem areas. it was mild and didn't casue any redness or other problems to my face. I would probably use this as a replacement for night creams, and using just once a day, this 6 oz. tube should last 8-9 months.It lasted nearly 3 months using mostly 3 times a day(much longer than the smaller jars of a good moisturizer). So comparably in that sense - and the price at this time at many of the sites(enter Strivectin in beauty search and many choices will come up) where it sells is about 1/2 of when it originally hit the market several years ago - it's a good buy. So check around for best deal(keep shipping deals in mind,some places offer free shipping with qualifying purchases)
So overall I'm going with 3 1/2 stars, as I just don't think it lived up to all that it claims.Once again, those who have used this for reducing stretch marks, please leave us your thoughts via a review or a comment.

StriVectin-SD is a multi-action skin perfector enriched with Striadril, a key compound containing patented pentapeptides that significantly improve the appearance of facial wrinkles, stretch marks, and minor skin imperfections by aiding the build-up of collagen. Unlike many other anti-aging treatments, Striadril is more stable (longer shelf life), better tolerated (causes less irritation), safer, and more effective.StriVectin SD turned out to be an anti-aging breakthrough. It was originally developed to repair stretch marks but has grown in popularity as a wrinkle reducing cream and claims of being "Better than Botox". StriVectin SD is clinically proven to reduce the actual length, depth, and volume of wrinkles.
