Stolen iPhone - IMEI and serial number permanent ban

My iPhone was stolen two days ago. Is there a way to permanently lock an iPhone so it never be used again? By banning the serial number and IMEI? Will Apple help if I provide the police report I filed?

1. All the options you have will be in the Find My iPhone application.

2. Ask your wireless carrier to blacklist the IMEI.

3. No.
