Vikki27 answered Wednesday November 29 2006, 10:57 am: As the person before me has said, there is unfortunately, no magical cure for cellulite. However, there are steps you can take to reduce the appearence of cellulite.
The cause is basically fat stores that are held in the body, so yes, exercise and a healthier diet will be the best way forward. However, you can also do the following:
- Drink more water. Water helps to flush out toxins from in the body and suppress the appetite. If you drink the recommended daily amount of 2 litres (8 cups) a day, this will be a big help.
- Help stimulate the circulation in the affected areas. Purchase a body brush, which is normally a circular wooden brush with natural fibre bristles. Start brushing from the bottom of your legs and work your way up, always brushing towards the heart. It is best to do this before you have a shower or a bath and over time should both improve the appearence of the skin in general and aid in reducing the appearence of cellulite, while increacing the circulation.
- Find a firming moisturiser. I use Dove Firming Lotion, which works very nicely. Massage it into the affected areas twice a day in a circular motion and it should firm the skin, reducing the appearence of the cellulite within around a month.
Lastly, I would warn you not to go too mad with trying to get rid of it. The majority of people, especially women suffer with the 'orange peel' skin, even famous celebrities. So please bear in mind that to an extent, it is normal. [ Vikki27's advice column | Ask Vikki27 A Question ]

If you decide that you want to try to reduce the amount of cellulite you have, the best thing to do is to reduce body fat. Eat fewer calories and exercise more, if you are over weightIn the meantime, if you want to conceal your cellulite, try using a self-tanning product. Cellulite tends to be a little bit less noticeable on darker skin.Many things influence whether a person has cellulite and how much they have. Your genes, your gender, the amount of fat on your body, your age, and the thickness of your skin are all associated with the amount of cellulite you have or how visible it is. Hope i helped!
