COSMOPOLITAN
Ask any woman what she'd like to change most about her body and chances are, she'll say she wants to get rid of her cellulite.
Dr. Roberto Viel, a surgeon at the London Centre for Aesthetic Surgery, says people tend to confuse fat and cellulite.
...rather than being directly related to obesity, cellulite results from an abnormal storage of excess toxins and water in the body, causing pockets in fat tissue.
...we asked four willing women to test the most effective[methods] over a four-week period.
1. Louise Green Age 28
The treatment: Endermologie at the London Centre for Aesthetic Surgery(0207 636 4272), costing £55 for 35 minutes. A non-invasive, mechanical massage, Endermologie uses a combination of suction and rolling to knead the affected area deep down, restoring the skin's collagen function, expelling excess water and toxins and increasing circulation.
Louise's verdict: "After the 14 sessions, the appearance of my bottom has vastly improved and I feel I have less lumpy skin. I will definitely go on following the treatment"
