Cellulite Treatment

The battle against cellulite has become a constant task for most women who understand that this physical problem can be a source of psychological and aesthetic issues.  We live in a society that has given a great deal of attention to cosmetic enhancements and to anti-aging procedures.  It is quite predictable then for a woman to freak out at the mere sight of a cottage-cheese like formation on her thigh, and to shell out excessive amounts of money in cellulite treatment.

Cellulite is more common in women aged thirty and up.  It is something difficult to avoid since women naturally gain seven to fifteen pounds of weight per decade starting from this age, and that weight gain is basically due to fat.  Along with that, the skin starts to get thinner, allowing the fatty deposits to become more visible.  A less active lifestyle can also contribute to cellulite formation.  Slumping on a couch for endless hours, doing the daily channel surfing job, is a good way of opening your life’s doors to cellulite.

Keeping the cellulite at bay is what all women want.  Cellulite treatment has stepped up in the medical and cosmetic arenas over the past few years, and it has already  progressed in an unimaginable manner.  Liposuction, mesotherapy, thermage, and radiofrequency are all included in a long list of expensive and promising cellulite treatment procedures.

Arbonne International has launched Figure 8 Vanish, a two-step cellulite treatment kit.  It includes a pre-shower cellulite scrub and a contouring cellulite cream.  These products were created to meet certain goals in cellulite treatment which are: to improve circulation in affected areas; to reduce the stress on the connective tissue of the skin by fat cells; and to improve the appearance of cellulite on the skin.  Figure 8 Vanish products are to be used to complement the effects of regular exercise and a healthy, balanced diet.

The key ingredients of both products were created to promote massage and microcirculation.  The benefits of which are: an improved cellulite appearance, a contoured area where cellulite is seen, and a visibly toned and firmer skin.  The pre-shower cellulite scrub has guarana (anti-inflammatory), green tea (anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory), olive oil and shea butter (both are moisturizers), and cocoa extracts.  The contouring cream on the other hand has caffeine (stimulates fat breakdown), gotu kola (moisturizer), horse chestnut and arnica (both are anti-inflammatory).

The scrub is to be used before wetting the skin and is applied on problem areas like the thighs, hips, arms and buttocks.  Application should be in a deep, circular massaging strokes to allow microcirculation within 3 minutes.  Warm water must be used to rinse the product off the body.  Afterwards, the contouring cream is applied in the same manner and must be absorbed by the skin completely to continue the microcirculation effect.

Figure 8 Vanish’s two-step system are affective cellulite treatment products when used in addition to the basic exercise-plus-healthy-diet program.  It is a cost- and time-efficient product that delivers.  Cellulite treatment is possible to happen at home, convenient and inexpensive, through the pre-shower cellulite scrub and the contouring cellulite cream.
