You can't open a women's magazine lately without being
overwhelmed with ads for this cellulite treatment or that cellulite
"solution". If you have ever wondered which cellulite treatments really
work then read this article to learn which ones are truly effective,
What is Cellulite?
Cellulite
is a harmless skin condition that occurs when the certain fat pockets
become too full and puff up towards the surface of the skin, giving it a
dimpled appearance or the "mattress syndrome" look. This condition
appears both in men and women and is seen generally on the thighs,
stomach and buttocks.
It's been estimated that over 70% of all
women have a cellulite condition of some kind. On some women the
trademark "orange peel skin" is barely noticeable while other women
spend a lifetime covering up at the beach or looking for breakthrough
cellulite treatments.
Cellulite will appear on all women at some
point in their lives; it doesn't respect age or body size. So are the
cellulite treatments that actually work?
Breakthrough Cellulite Treatments
--
Retinol A is a derivative of Vitamin A. Retinal A is absorbed by the
skin and works at the molecular level to increase the skin's natural
renewal process, which reduces the appearance of cellulite. The proven
cellulite treatment also increases collagen which keeps the skin look
more youthful and vibrant.
-- Coffee Extract (Caffeine) can
actually help reduce fat. It speeds up the body's fat metabolism and
reduces bloating which makes hard hit cellulite areas smoother and
firmer. So how come you still have cellulite if you have big cup of
coffee every morning? In order to be an effective cellulite treatment,
the coffee needs to be rubbed into the skin directly, where it can start
to work on the fat deposits.
-- Seaweed has been used in fat
reduction treatments in high-end spas for decades. Seaweed is believed
to a good cellulite treatment since it increases the blood flow to fatty
tissues and reduces liquid buildup. Bladderwrack extract, a type of
Atlantic Ocean kelp, have been used for hundreds of years for just this
purpose. Bladderwrack extract is not only a diuretic but is an emollient
and has antioxidant properties.
-- Capsicum is the active
ingredient in chili peppers. Capsicum had been used for medicinal
purposes for thousands of years by North and South American Native
peoples. Considered by some to one of nature's greatest stimulants,
capsicum extract when rubbed on the skin can increase circulation and
improve blood flow the areas it is absorbed into.
-- Green Tea is a
wonderful way to completely detoxify your body and researchers believe
that when applied to the skin that green tea extracts seem rejuvenate
dying cells. Once green tea is applied skins start to regain energy and
reactivate. This allows your body to remove toxics faster and softens
and conditions the skin.
-- Horsetail is another cellulite
treatment herb. It contains silica and other naturally occurring
minerals. Using horsetail promotes smoother silkier skin which lessens
the appearance of cellulite and strengths the elasticity of connective
tissue within the skin.
All of these herbs or extracts have been
used successfully to lessen the effects of cellulite. But you don't have
to spend hours shopping and collecting this herb or that extract. Or
rack your brain to determine the correct portions or applications you
need to get the best results.
