It can be defined as a medical disorder first observed as microscopic changes in the skin, which are not apparent on the
surface. These invisible changes, however, manifest themselves as cosmetic problems later on which we commonly
associate with dimples. Cellulite is a progressive condition. It may start out as a minor imperfection, but it can become
worse if not properly treated.

2. What causes cellulite?
Cellulite is not the result of too much fat in your body. The actual cause of cellulite occurs internally with the weakening
of the skin cells and connective tissue. As the skin sustains damage from a myriad of sources, such as aging and the
environment, it loses its essential water and weakens. Cellulite and stretch marks are caused by skin that has
deteriorated and dehydrated to the point where buoyant fat cells trapped just below the skin are able to push into the
dermis (the middle layer of skin) and show through the surface.
3. How do I
get rid of cellulite
?
To repair cellulite, we need to focus on repairing the dermis, both topically and internally, not on burning fat.
Understanding that cellulite is a symptom of vascular damage is the scientific foundation of Murad’s unique approach to
getting rid of cellulite’s lumps and dimples. Murad’s two-step Cellulite Solution focuses on feeding and hydrating your skin
from both the inside and the outside.
Murad’s Firm and Tone Dietary Supplement Pack provides cell-fortifying nutrients that support the repair of vascular
damage which weakens skin structure. Without strong structure, fat cells are free to migrate and aggregate as cellulite
nodules. Murad’s Firm and Tone Serum works on the skin’s surface to increase firmness and elasticity while masking
imperfections.
4. Will weight loss help reduce cellulite?
Banishing cellulite is not about eating less, it is about eating enough of the right things. Cellulite is caused by the
weakening of skin cells and connective tissue. As skin cells sustain damage from aging and the environment, once
buried fat cells get pushed into the dermis, creating skin dimpling. This type of fat cell cannot be metabolized. Therefore,
weight loss won’t reduce the “dimpled” appearance of cellulite—and that’s why skinny girls get it, too.
5. I exercise on a regular basis, so why do I have cellulite?
It’s not because you’ve been slacking off at the gym. Cellulite is not a “fat” problem—rather it is a “dermal” and “cellular”
problem. Cellulite fat deposits are trapped in pockets within the skin where they cannot be readily used as fuel (like fat
on the body)—that’s why fat burning workouts won’t fix it.
The difference between cellulite and regular fat
6. Is cellulite related to age?
Cellulite can start to develop in girls as young as 14 or any time after puberty, but generally becomes more common
after the age of 30. As the aging process causes the epidermis to become thinner, the loss of thickness and tone of the
connective tissue within the dermis causes the lumpy collections of fat cells and irregular collagen fibers to be visible
from the surface. A main cause can be the accumulation of the effects of lifestyle, genetic predisposition and possible
hormonal imbalances. That is the reason why some younger girls or women can have more developed cellulite than
other women in their late 30s, 40s or beyond.
7. Does cellulite just affect women, or can men have it too?
Cellulite is caused primarily by hormones. In fact, the reason men almost never get cellulite is likely that they have
much less estrogen in their bodies than women do. Another factor is genetics. If your mother had cellulite, you are likely
to have it too. These hormonal and hereditary factors allow the dermis to become damaged more easily in specific
areas. Dermal fat cells in cellulite areas are closer to the surface because the dermis has been damaged. The tissue in
women tends to be less resilient than in men, which is another reason that it is more easily ruptured by age and the
environment.
8. Does exfoliation help reduce cellulite?
Yes. Removing impurities and dead cells from the skin’s surface, as well as stimulating cell turnover, encourages
penetration of topical anti-cellulite ingredients.
9. Does tanning help reduce cellulite?
No. Unprotected exposure to UV rays will actually promote visibility of cellulite. Topical sunless-tanning products or
bronzers can be a safe alternative.
10. Do topical skincare products really work for cellulite?
Yes, if they contain the right active ingredients, in optimal formulation type. They are even more effective if used in
conjunction with
Firm and Tone Dietary Supplement Pack. It is a two-pronged approach for treating cellulite—from inside
and outside. Murad’s
Firm and Tone Serum minimizes the appearance of cellulite and stretch marks by hydrating skin and
encouraging circulation to help restore elasticity and firmness. Used in conjunction with proper nutrition and supplements,
this topical product has been scientifically proven to reduce the appearance of cellulite by up to 69%.
11. I already take daily vitamins. Do I need to take Murad’s Firm and Tone Supplement Pack, too?
If you are currently taking vitamins on a regular basis, do you know if they are specifically formulated to help improve
the health of your skin and reduce your cellulite? Your skin may need additional nutrients that are not provided in your
normal daily supplement.
Murad’s Firm and Tone Dietary Supplement Pack helps protect against changes in the dermis that lead to cellulite, as well
as reduce them significantly if they have already developed. This is accomplished by boosting collagen production and
improving overall cell hydration. The variety of important vitamins and minerals in this dietary formula are powerful
antioxidants and anti-inflammatories that are able to provide additional defense against causes of cellulite. Instead of
taking many different supplements to get all necessary nutrients, Dr. Murad has made it easy and included them all in
convenient daily packettes for morning and night.
12. I am pregnant. Can I take the Firm and Tone Supplement Pack?
It is not recommended to take any of the supplements during pregnancy without consulting your doctor first.
13. Why is the Murad Cellulite Solution so revolutionary? What makes it different?
Dr. Murad understands the root causes of cellulite, and is therefore able to prescribe a curative and preventive
anti-cellulite regimen that treats the problem from the inside where it lives, as well as from the outside. This regimen is
not a single use approach spot treatment, but rather an inclusive skincare regimen that addresses cellulite both topically
and internally. The Murad Cellulite Solution is backed by science and clinical studies and comes with a
money back
guarantee.
14. Why is the Murad Cellulite Solution so revolutionary? What makes it different?
Consistency is key — follow the regimen every morning and night for best results. Some users experience significant
visible results even within first couple of weeks. Results may vary.
