It's best not to look in stores but instead to call the toy company's customer service #800 number. They sell these separately and keep in mind, it is always best to keep these recharged when not in use but they don't last forever.

Stretch Mark Fading System

While pregnant, there is a good chance that stretch marks will appear. While there is no secret to remove these stretch marks forever, we found this product to reduce the appearance. Stretch marks are formed when the skin has been stretched to the point of breaking down  connective tissue in the underlying layer of the the skin.  The marks that show through on the top layer of the skin are commonly referred to as 'stretch marks'. Stretch Mark Fading System can also be used during pregnancy to prevent the appearance of stretch marks in the first place. TIP: If planning to use while pregnant, share this information (as well as all other topical skin products) with your doctor.
