The use of mud in cellulite reduction. Case report

Abstract

Mud is a natural, organic and mineral raw material used in the cosmetic industry, rehabilitation and wellness. In cosmetology, it is mainly used in the prevention of cellulite and stretch marks, and in skin care. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of mud and caffeine treatments on cellulite reduction. A 49-year-old woman with confirmed cellulite on the back of her thighs underwent a series of ten mud treatments. The first effects were observed after just five treatments. The results of the study confirm that the mud, in combination with caffeine, has a beneficial effect on reducing visible bumps on the skin. The disadvantage of the treatment may be the unpleasant smell.
