Cellulite: What Treatments Work
If you are affected by cellulite, take comfort in the fact that you are not alone. Between 9 in 10 women will have the skin problem at some stage, most often after the age of 31. Thankfully, there is something that you can do about cellulite. In this article, I will take you through what works and what doesn’t in terms of cellulite removal treatment.
What Doesn’t Work
Inflatable anti-cellulite shorts and special counter cellulite lingerie are just some examples of treatments that are designed to rip you off. Detox foot pads are marketed as help to remove toxins that cause cellulite through the feet but this is another false marketing claim. In terms of cosmetic surgery for cellulite, liposuction is a technique that can actually increase the prevalence of cellulite because it can lead to uneven fat layers under the skin.
What Does Work
While nothing can get rid of cellulite, there are a number of methods that can effectively help reduce its appearance. The main downside of these treatments are that you will need ongoing sessions to keep your results.
Massage assists in softening up the fat and skin, and eases out the lumps. You can have a massage therapist conduct this method or use a small mechanical machine at home. Popular treatments like Endermologie and TriActive are larger machines used in beauty spas for cellulite massage.
Cellulite lotion is a cheap method for cellulite reduction. There are many creams currently on the market and their effectiveness doesn’t always correlate with their price. Take a careful look at their ingredients to see if they contain proven anti-cellulite materials.
Body wraps are a treatment conducted only in beauty spas. Pieces of fabric are soaked in an anti-cellulite solution and then tightly wrapped around the limbs and lower body. It is thought that body wraps help to remove built up fluid and improve the look the skin.
