Types Of Cellulite Treatment CreamsMost cellulite treatment creams are applied topically and for a few hours give the illusion that the skin is smoother. However, if you stop applying the cream then the cellulite will return. Although these topical creams are an inexpensive choice when compared to other possible treatments. But this doesn't mean they are the cheapest option since they are still more expensive than a regular moisturizer. If you do choose to use cellulite treatment creams then you should apply them at night to get the best results since your skin is more permeable at this time. When considering cellulite treatment creams you should consider the following ingredients. Common Ingredients Aminophylline is most commonly used in the treatment of asthma to help relax the lungs. However, it is used in many cellulite treatment creams because it is a derivative of the active ingredient theophyllinem which is a muscle relaxant. When using creams with this ingredient you should keep them away from heat sources and use them quickly. It was originally thought that this ingredient broke down fat cells, however studies found that this is not true since it does not enter the bloodstream which means it isn't able to break down fat cells. Often Retinoids will be used in wrinkle treatment creams and they are a Vitamin A derivative. In certain concentrations this ingredient can be used to reduce the appearance of fine wrinkles and roughness of the facial skin by improving circulation to the skin. However, there have been no studies to establish the effectiveness of this ingredient against cellulite. It is important to apply these creams at night since retinol can be destroyed when exposed to light. Another popular ingredient is alpha hydroxy acids which are found in plants and certain foods such as citrus fruits, apples, grapes, tomatoes, apricots and sour milk. These can act of exfoliators in lower concentrations which can help with the removal of superficial dead cells and increase the turnover rate of cells. As with all the other ingredients though there is no studies that can prove the effectiveness of alpha hydroxy acids as a treatment for cellulite. |
