Body Wraps - These cause the body to sweat water away which in turn makes skin lie flatter against the underlying muscles. The effect of cellulite is strictly temporary and usually lasts from 8-12 hours.
Vigorous massage – This can temporarily soften the appearance of cellulite by increasing circulation, making skin look firmer. It also encourages the body to release the excess water that is holding in the massaged tissues, and so reducing the appearance of cellulite.
Exercise - Not only does this burn the excess fats that can cause cellulite, it also increases blood flow to the surface of the skin and this plumps the skin, making it less noticeable. For the cest results you need to do 30-60 minutes of aerobic exercise 5-6 times a week. Weights also help as they form the muscles under the skin, which help disguise cellulite. You should notice an improvement in 6-12 weeks.
Creams - The most important ingredients in cellulite creams now are those called phosphodiesterase inhibitors. In plain simple English, these stop production of the enzymes that leads to fats storage in our body and so cause the dimples to shrink. Many ingredients have this effect including caffeine, aminophylline, theophylline, kolanut and guarana. Alongside these are ingredients like menthol or butchers broom, which help dilate blood vessels, increasing circulation in the area; Gingko Biloba which is said to firm the skin; and lemon and fennel, which help detox the body and repair skin. Apply the cream two hours after eating or one hour before - your body will only burn fat when it has none in the blood stream.
