For cellulite, scrub the skin with a bristle brush

For cellulite, scrub the skin with a bristle brush or loofah. Brush in slow sweeps, always toward the heart. There are gloves and mitts available to do this, but they're not necessary. Try to do this at least five minutes every day.

Cellulite myths Comments By: anon on 2004-10-24 Nothing has yet been scientifically proven to remove cellulite - it is a natural condition most women have, thought to be caused by fat cells being extruded into the dermis layer of the skin. Brushing and using a loofah cannot change the natural structure of your lower skin layers.   not correct Comments By: honey on 2005-01-23 Celluite dosen't occur on top of the skin,it is in the layers of the skin.scrubbing your skin won't help get rid of celluite,it is not easy to get rid of celluite but their is creams to get rid of celluite.or suggest seeking a skin dermatologist.also exercise and eat healthy!!   I agree with the others! Comments By: Me on 2005-05-13 Only a proper diet and regular exercise routine might be able to get rid of some cellulite.   well techincally Comments By: manda on 2006-11-12 technically you can not get rid of cellulite HOWEVER you can reduce its size, causing its appearance to reduce. Regular exercise and cutting of too much sodium, and fats from the diet can do the trick.   It helps... but not enough. Comments By: Mysfiction on 2009-01-08 Scrubbing the skin is meant to target the muscles underneath, not the skin itself... Creating more blood flow to the area helps break down the fat's groupings, which causes the cellulite's chunky appearance.
