Does cellulite decrease with weight loss?

I've been working hard to lose weight, and I'm seeing some progress, but I still have cellulite. I'm hoping that as I lose more weight, it will improve. Does cellulite decrease with weight loss?

Yes, losing weight can make cellulite look less noticeable because the fat deposits shrink. However, genetics and skin elasticity also play a big role, so it might not disappear completely.

I lost about 15 kgs and honestly, the dimpled skin on my thighs reduced quite a bit. Doing heavy squats and lifting weights helped tighten the skin much better than just dieting.

My thyroid made weight loss very slow, which affected my skin texture too. It's always best to get your hormone levels and thyroid tested regularly while trying to manage weight and skin changes.

Beta, cellulite is just natural fat under the skin. Along with losing weight, massaging the area with warm mustard or sesame oil regularly helps improve blood circulation naturally.
