Macca, actually good point re stretch marks. I haven't explored silicon's application to that.
Below is a link explaining silicon.

I think you'd also get reasonable results using the silicone you use to seal windows. Why? Though not sure, scientists believe silicone's mechanism of action is simply to enhance moisture content and circulation around and within the scar. This allows greater reshaping of the scar tissue, as the body is constantly reshaping via resorption and regrowth many connective tissues.
However, the tissue must have reasonable circulation and interstitial fluid so as to facilitate transport of appropriate enzyme precursors, nutrients, and oxygen.
So where to from here. OK, down to the tool shed, get your silicone gun out, and apply liberally, as you would spak filler, to your wife's stretch marks.
Then apply duct tape to keep it on for 2-3 days before cleaning and refilling. Continue for 2-4 months, or until divorce....
Maybe you could contact Smith and Nephew to ask about application to stretch marks. It might just be possible that no one has ever tried it.
However, I'd be inclined to simultaneously include a healthy diet maintaining optimal lean body mass, and get a well designed gym program. Even if she doesn't lose the marks, she'll feel like a million dollars.
