Hello, stretch marks on the calves can significantly affect appearance. This condition is most commonly caused by excessive fat accumulation in the body; however, rapid skeletal growth that stretches the skin beyond its elastic limit can also lead to stretch marks. To help fade stretch marks on the calves, you may apply essential oil-based creams or olive oil combined with gentle massage. Alternatively, laser therapy is another effective treatment option. I hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
