Unfortunately, cellulite is something that most women confront at some point in their lives. Contrary to popular opinion, cellulite is not related to being overweight; average and underweight people can get cellulite as well. And, there is no scientifically proven cause for cellulite.
Cellulite is characterized by a dimpling or lumping of the skin. This is caused by the swelling of fat into the dermis, creating something known as adipose tissue. Although it is virtually indistinguishable from ordinary fat, there appears to be a hormonal component associated with cellulite, as it is rarely seen in males.
While harmless, cellulite can still cause a great deal of embarrassment. Fortunately, a variety of products are available that can help reduce or eliminate the appearance of cellulite.
There are a number of factors to consider when looking for cellulite treatments. Some of these factors include:
• Effectiveness. The bottom line - does the product live up to its claims?
• Guarantee. Some products offer a 100% money-back guarantee; others provide no such support.
• Cost. The most expensive solution doesn't mean it's the best solution.
We hope you find this information valuable in selecting the right Cellulite Treatment for you!

Revitol Cellulite Cream is a very effective product that provides skin clarity
and smoothness to problem areas. Nearly all respondents experienced positive results.
Revitol is composed of 100% all natural ingredients; there are no known risks or side effects associated with the use of this product. The ingredients in other products sometimes produce mild rashes or itchy skin; the users of Revitol report none of these effects.
Revitol operates on two levels; first, the topical cream rejuvenates the cells and connective tissue on the outer skin layer. Second, Revitol penetrates deeply into your tissue to break up the fat and smooth-out your cells. Revitol does an outstanding job of firming the skin and removing the appearance of cellulite.
The primary active ingredients in Revitol's Cellulite Cream are: Caffeine, to widen blood vessels and stimulate circulation; L-Carnitine, an amino acid that helps to reduce fat storage; Algae and Green Tea to detoxify the skin; Capsicum, a pepper that helps to boost circulation; Retinol to stimulate collagen production; Shea Butter to moisturize and nourish the
skin; and Horsetail Extract, which helps to improve skin elasticity.
The cost of one 4 oz. bottle is $59.95, squarely in the low-to-moderate price range for cellulite products. This value improves even more when purchasing multiple bottles; if two are purchased, you save $10, and if 3 are purchased you receive a fourth one free. One bottle is generally equal to a one-month supply.
Another nice feature we noted is Revitol's consumer-friendly return policy. If you are not happy with your purchase of Revitol Cellulite Cream for any reason, you can simply return the product for a full refund within 90 days of purchase. We're glad to find companies that offer a truly effective product backed by an industry-leading guarantee.
Revitol offers a powerful combination of effectiveness, ingredients, and price. With consumer-friendly policies such as multiple-bottle discounts and a 100% satisfaction guarantee, Revitol is a tough treatment to beat.

The Murad Firm and Tone website is professional and gives beneficial information relating to the causes of, and treatment for, cellulite. The product itself has received numerous positive reviews and testimonials from satisfied users.
The serum contains encapsulated liposomes that deliver active ingredients to the skin, reducing the appearance of cellulite and stretch marks. Listed ingredients include Cayenne Pepper which "invigorates circulation within skin", Horse Nut Tree Extract and Tiger's Herb which "restore firmer and extract smoother skin", and Cat's Claw,
which "reduces the appearance of dimpled skin associated with cellulite".
The cost for Murad Firm and Tone Serum is $75 for a 6.75 oz tube. The company also recommends that for best results customers use Murad Cellulite Solution in conjunction with several of their other body firming products which includes a body scrub, firming cream, and vitamin supplements. This could make the Murad cellulite treatment program more cost
prohibitive as the program could easily run upwards of $200. If you do not see positive results, the product is backed by a money back guarantee and Murad will give a full refund minus shipping costs.
Murad Firm and Tone Serum is an effective option when treating cellulite. As an award-winning product in many popular fitness magazines, it is backed by many independent studies and reviews. However, the cost is on the higher end of the products reviewed.

We found mixed results for the Osmotics Lipoduction cellulite treatment. While most users saw positive results, many reported the results were no better than other, less-expensive products.
The Osmotics website states that most cellulite products are not effective because the beneficial ingredients never penetrate the skin's lipid barrier, and, as a result, these ingredients remain on the skin's surface. Lipoduction is said to overcome this problem by encapsulating the active ingredients into a "patented permeation technology or Nano Technology
that increases delivery up to 700% over traditional cellulite products". In addition, the company claims that weak capillary action leads to a breakdown in the collagen matrix, which also contributes to the development of cellulite. Lipoduction contains pure grapeseed extract, an antioxidant proven to strengthen the capillary system and help prevent breakdown of the collagen matrix.
Osmotics Lipoduction instructs the user to apply a generous amount of cream and massage into the skin, concentrating on problem areas. Customers should apply first before using additional skin care products, and allow the cream to absorb completely (5-10 minutes) before dressing. For best results it is to be used twice daily.
Reviews for Osmotics Lipoduction are varied, with many of the negative reviewers stating that they saw similar results with much cheaper products. Several reviewers also described the consistency of the lotion as sticky. Since this product is one of the most expensive ones reviewed, we suggest that customers look to other more cost-effective products
for a cellulite treatment solution.

Cellex-C is a reputable company when it comes to skincare solutions. When comparing reviews for their cellulite treatment lotion, however, we found that results did not live up to the company's reputation.
Cellex-C Body Smoothing Lotion contains 15% L-ascorbic acid, which the company describes as the only known form of vitamin C that the body can recognize and utilize for collagen production. Lack of ascorbic acid prevents normal collagen from forming in the tissues. This product also contains lycopene, which is extracted from tomatoes. The company explains that because sunlight reduces lycopene concentrations
in the skin, it is important to keep levels maintained through dietary intake and topical application. Lycopene, which is fat soluble, is able to work in tandem with vitamin E lipid membranes of the cell to prevent lipid perioxidation - a primary cause of age spots.
The cost of a 2 oz. bottle is $55. Customers are instructed to dispense cream into the palm of the hand and apply lotion to the skin using long, smooth strokes. Customers are also informed that Cellex-C Body Smoothing Lotion will darken with time due to a bio-chemically controlled reaction. This gradual oxidation is essential to the potency of L-ascorbic acid and will not significantly affect the efficacy
of this product when used as directed.
Unfortunately, we found Cellex-C less effective than the higher-rated products in our review. And outside of the company's website, it was difficult to find any positive reviews to justify the high price point. Combined with the fact that this product has the highest per-ounce cost of any treatment reviewed, we recommend that customers look elsewhere for a cost-effective cellulite solution.
