Usually body wraps are only temporary. For instance, if you were attending a wedding and wanted to look extra good in your new dress, then yeah, go for it. The results typically last a few days (the wraps I'm familiar with anyway). The main way they work is they dehydrate your skin, leaving you smaller by having lost water.

Now, maybe some sort of compressive, hydration wrap might help long term with the elasticity of skin?? Not sure about a different type, sorry.

Yah I know they do the dehydrating. And that was my main concern I'm mean since we are more prone to dehydrate a lot faster.

I used to do wraps before I did surgery. I liked how they worked...but at the time I was drinking over 100 oz of water daily. They will dry you out. My results tended to last, however I was going regularly so that could be why it seemed they lasted a long time.

I suggest getting them sparingly when you have an event or need to drop water weight. But long term, it won't get rid of your excess skin.

I tried them but like so many other gimmicks, they arent worth the money.
