Do cellulite treatments in salons work out??

It depends if you are talking about something like Velasmooth.





Cellulite is caused by two things, 1) Fatty tissue and 2) Connective tissue.





The first can be taken care of primarily by diet and working out. Drink your fair share of water, don't eat too much and work out to maintain your metabolism.





The second is more problematic and gets worse as you age because collagen is not regenerated so the tissue becomes less elastic and of course most people gain weight as they age because of a less active life style and a drop in metabolism. This is where Velasmooth or mesotherapy come in handy.

They are mostly BS, they charge a lot of money, and don't address the cause of cellulite. Read my review on the latest Spa cellulite 'treatment', the ';Cellubike';:

Cellulite is caused by fat, yes... but what I a lot of people don't know is that cellulite is caused by a break down of the epidermis skin layer due to toxicity or a lack of nutrients in the skin. I wrote about it here:

Hope these help.

I think the answer is no! If they really did, then most women wouldn't still have cellulite! (those who can afford salons)...we still see celebrity ';snaps'; of cellulite so it's obvious that even those with millions of dollars still can't find the miracle cure.


It appears that these treatments do improve the appearance of cellulite, they can firm the skin a little and improve the texture but once it's there I think there's no sure way to get rid of it 100%. Unfortunately! If you have spare money, then these probably help a tiny bit, but they are usually pretty expensive and the results are quite minimal. It's such a pity, but there doesn't seem to be a cure....they say it's hormonal (which is why men don't get it) as it's apparently linked to oestrogen which is why it kicks in at puberty for girls (just when you need another strange thing!!)....so, I guess some of us are just stuck with it! :-( Anyway, at least be reassured that like 99% of women have it so don't worry...it's just a fact of life and don't be embarassed about it, check out most women and you'll see it! (PS - if you find a miracle cure, please post it up on Yahoo!) ;-)
