Alternative Treatments for Cellulite
Improving Circulation Locally
Nitro-Bid Ointment: contains Nitroglycerin, a nitrate vasodilator, which when applied topically to the skin improves microcirculation locally. It works by relaxing and widening blood vessels and thus allowing improved blood flow in this area and allows the skin to renew itself. Its often used to treat Raynaud's Syndrome.
Viagra (Sildenafil) cream: A moisturiser containing Viagra as its main ingredient will soon be developed to treat cellulite. Again Viagra works as a vasodilator.
Thiomucase Cream
Thiomucase has been used for years by body builders and athletes for localised fat loss. It contains a natural ingredient called mucopolysaccharidase that draws water from fat cells. It is especially useful for cellulite because it reduces the amount of excess water in fat cells due to oestrogen. Thiomucase is said to release up to 20% more water. However, the effects like most creams and treatments are temporary.
Thiomucase is available in a 45 gram tube for about £15. Also available without a prescription is Thiomucase Anti-Cellulite Cream 50ml again for around £15. It contains less of the active ingredient then the medical tube of Thiomucase.
Atopiclair: contains Glycrrhetinic acid as its main ingredient. It is used to treat atopic dermatitis (eczema) and contact dermatitis. It helps calm the symptoms of itching and burning of these skin diseases.
