An anti-cellulite cream that works? Every day we are bombarded with advertisements of miracle creams that achieve amazing results. Before answering this question, we should know that the skin is impermeable and acts as a real protective barrier against external aggressions, preventing both the loss of water to the outside and the penetration of substances, including water, from the outside.
But do they really work?
Cosmetics, by definition, act only on the most superficial layer of the skin and therefore do not have the ability to reach the layers where cellulite is. Even the best cream on the market would not reach the adipocyte.
Anti-cellulite creams have components that help improve the appearance of the skin, achieving a temporary appearance of cellulite improvement. In addition, the massage that should be given when applying them, also helps to achieve this improvement in appearance.
That is, if the goal is to eliminate cellulite with creams, the answer is no, they do not work. However, as a complement and part of the medical-aesthetic treatment and a healthy life, of course! Anti-cellulite creams will help us to improve the quality, hydration, texture and appearance of the skin.
