Do creams that claim to reduce cellulite really work?
There are no topical products that can eliminate cellulite. Firming and toning body lotions may temporarily make the skin appear tighter and smoother, but they cannot affect the fatty deposits that contribute to cellulite on the hips and thighs. Cellulite is a dipose tissue and waste that is trapped in vertical strands in the subcutaneous layer of your skin. It is caused by behavior and eating habits and genetics. Diet and exercise can help, along with drinking lots of water to flush out toxins. Avoid food additives,fats, starches, artificial colors and flavors, sodium, and alcohol.
