There is no "medical grade filler" approved for injections into the hips, butt, or thighs. No reputable doctor will do this, so you're left with back alley "practitioners" who will pump you up in hotel rooms or something. Silicone should NEVER be injected anywhere into the body, except perhaps for the eye (which is the only approved use of the ONE silicone product approved for injection.)
You have one life, and one body. Why risk permanent mutilation at best, or drowning to death as your lungs fill with silicone, at worst? I just don't get why somebody would want to do something so stupid to themselves.
They are great for moisturizing the skin, but there's no way that being wrapped in plastic or herbal potions can cause fat loss. If they could there wouldn't be a fat person alive! As to stretch marks, these are literally scars that form when the underlying skins structures "split" due to rapid expansion. There has been some success with lasers, and prescription drugs, in reducing their appearance, but again a "body wrap" cannot really do much for them. Any weight loss is caused by dehydration due to sweating, and is temporary as the water balance will rapidly be restored upon consuming fluids.
This kind of thing happens all too often with laser hair removal, which is why I won't touch it. I chose electrolysis for my hair removal needs, which I feel is much safer. Anyway, you need to see a dermatologist about this. A MEDICAL DOCTOR. Not a "laser tech" and not some "clinic," especially considering what such types have already done to you. With skin damage like this, the prognosis isn't good, I'm afraid, but a trained physician might be able to do something to blend in some of the colour. Very sorry this happened to you. Laser is just too dangerous to be used by non-medical providers.
Of course you won't lose weight with a "body wrap;" that would be magic. All a body wrap can do is dehydrate you, causing water weight loss. Also, some of the oils and creams might make your skin feel softer. However, there's no magic potion or cosmetic treatment that can fix the results of overeating, aging, and genetics. Nothing you rub on your skin can "cure" stretch marks or cellulite. Body wraps are good for a temporary loss of fluid, and maybe some skin moisturization, and that's it. If losing weight were really as easy as going to a spa, there wouldn't be a fat person alive.
