Should stretch marks appear, the cream should be applied immediately and used for at least two to three months.

Should a reaction take place, Mustela asks that you contact their customer service department. You will then speak with a cosmetovigilance specialist who will try to work out why the reaction took place and ask the product to be returned for analysis.

It has received a perfect 5-star rating in product satisfaction, quality and value so it seems like it should be an excellent buy.

Conclusion

Mustela does not list the amount of each ingredient so it is difficult to gauge the strength of the cream and whether it is effective. It has received reviews that suggest that it is highly effective but there may be other more effective creams on the market. However, as the quantity of each ingredient is not noted, there is no way to make a comparison. The guarantee has a very short time limit as it may take a number of days of testing Stretch Marks Double Action cream before you can determine whether or not it is working for you or not. It is cheaper than some similar products but is uncertain how long a tube of this cream would last so it is difficult to judge if it is good value or not. Although possible adverse side effects are not given, there is an excellent service in place to ensure that no one else suffers from the same reactions that you might have because of using the product. This product may be for you or you may find that there are better and cheaper alternatives.
