Applying Profskin Mud Plus before a thermal body wrap

Cellulite is one of the most common skin concerns, and one of the most misunderstood. Here is what it is, and a simple body care routine that can help reduce its appearance.

What is cellulite?

Cellulite is the dimpled, “orange peel” look of the skin, most often on the thighs, hips, buttocks and stomach. It is very common, especially in women, and appears in people of every size and shape. Genetics, age, hormones, diet and lifestyle all play a part.

Can body care help?

Cosmetic products cannot make cellulite disappear, but a regular routine of exfoliation, thermal treatments, massage and firming care can help the skin look smoother, firmer and more toned. The key is to be consistent, and to combine it with exercise, a balanced diet and plenty of water.

The Profskin 4-step routine

  1. Exfoliate with Peeling Body Cream once or twice a week to smooth rough skin and prepare it for treatment.
  2. Thermal wrap with Mud Plus, our self-heating thermal mud, to purify and tone the skin.
  3. Massage the areas that need it most with Cellucure, or with Cellucure Termic for an intensive self-heating action.
  4. Firm and nourish every day with Firming Body for soft, supple, toned-looking skin.

Massage technique

When you apply a massage cream, work from the bottom up with firm, circular movements: from the knees up the thighs, then over the hips and buttocks. A few minutes of massage on each area helps the product absorb and stimulates the skin.
