The Many Types of Cellulite Treatment Cream

Cellulite treatment cream is just one of the many tools used by women to battle cellulite. Cellulite, while not related to weight at all, does involve fat deposits. This is simply due to the body not being able to remove waste material quickly enough from the skin fibers. This results in a build-up and hardening of fat which result in the “dimple” effect. Beyond the most effective method of fighting cellulite, being exercise and diet, anti cellulite treatment cream can be among the top of the list.

How Cellulite Treatment Cream Works

When used properly, real cellulite treatment cream penetrates the skin and attacks the cellulite directly under the skin. In time, the ingredients in the cream cause the cellulite to melt away and allow the body fluids to take over and flush the cellulite out of your system.

The “Snake Oil” Creams

With the market for cellulite treatment cream widening at a quick pace, there have been many imitations creams that have appeared. While these imitation creams do not hinder the cellulite removal, they also do nothing to reduce it or keep it from building up. The “snake oil” cellulite treatment cream does nothing more than moisturize the skin.

Different Types of Anti Cellulite Creams Available

Anti cellulite treatment cream is affordable and easy to obtain. Most retail stores and pharmacies carry cellulite treatment cream and there is no prescription required. When you do purchase a cellulite treatment cream, be sure to check that some of these ingredients are included:

Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA) which helps speed up the removal of layer of dead skin cells.

Aminophylline which is used to reduce the “dimple” effect of cellulite

Caffeine is used in some cellulite treatment cream but has not been proven to fight cellulite as of yet.

Herbal Cellulite Lotion such as Citric, Phytic and Tartaric acids from fruits and vegetables are seen in some of the available creams.

Retinol is included with some cellulite treatment cream for improving skin texture and is common in anti wrinkle creams

With all the varied products on the market, it is rather difficult to find what is the best anti cellulite product for you. Careful comparison will help you find a quality cellulite treatment cream that works. While anti cellulite creams will not completely remove the “orange-peel” effect on the skin, they can be used in combination with healthy lifestyles. This combination can help bring the skin back to a normal healthy appearance over time. Any product in this category that promises near immediate results is misrepresenting the product.
