BANGKOK, Thailand—According to an unpublished single-blind, intra-individual study conducted by Gencor Pacific, Slimaluma produced a significant anti-fat node effect more efficient than the placebo. A total of 20 female volunteers, aged between 20 and 53, with cellulite on their thighs, applied a white lotion (as Slimaluma, from Gencor Pacific) twice daily. After 56 days, the product induced a non-significant decrease in the three studied parameters (the arithmetic mean, the maximum applitude and the average volume), although non-significant, the results demonstrated an anti-fat node effect. After 84 days, the product induced a non-significant decrease in the arithmetic mean and the maximum amplitude, and a significant decrease in the average volume.

If anyone has an explanation for what a “fat node” is, I’d love to hear it.

Cellulite creams are a dime a dozen, and there’s little evidence that they’re effective.  Non-significant, unpublished results and (apparently) invented terms leads me to suspect this one’s no different than the rest.
