Cellulite is a poorly understood condition, and as a result, treatments developed over the years have been either ineffective or highly invasive, with many failing to even address the primary source of the problem. Misleading quick-fix solutions and heavily advertised fads have confused and disappointed female consumers, along with “FDA-cleared” credibility claims used as a smokescreen for treatments that are ineffective.
Examples include:
| Category | Treatment | Problem |
|---|---|---|
| Surgical procedures | Liposuction, Fat freezing, Heat based Laser procedures |
|
| Topicals | Creams, lotions, other highly promoted quick fixes |
|
| Diet & exercise | Nationally marketed brands; DIY regimens; Highly marketed fads |
