Ask The Doctor

Q: I was shopping with my mother the other day. I was trying on pants, and she told me next time I should not wear lace underwear. Little did she know that I was wearing a thong!! She saw my cellulite through the pants I was trying on. How embarrassing. What can I do to get rid of this cellulite before the summer?

A: Unfortunately, nothing will get rid of cellulite completely. However, there are treatments such as Thermage and Mesotherapy that will help reduce the appearance of cellulite. Nothing is permanent either, so every couple years, you will need to keep it under control by doing treatments. You should exercise regularly, and drink lots of water. I hear that jumping rope helps you circulation as well (which is another cause of cellulite). ~Dr. Mansoury
