When that infamous orange-peel skin starts showing up on your thighs or buttocks, you start trying to find some methods of fighting against this disaster. You spend a lot of money on all kinds of procedures and remedies for cellulite, which has recently appeared on the beauty industry market in vast quantities.
Not all of them justify the money spent on them and the trust that was placed. In order to avoid disappointment, several useful tips and an overview of the best and most effective offers will help you not make a mistake when choosing.
How to choose?
Everyone wants to find the best cellulite remedy that would help to get rid of this disaster without any harm to health and in the shortest possible time. The problem is that there are too many of them on the market today. On the one hand, such a wide range provides us with a choice. On the other hand, it complicates the search, but it can be simplified.
There are four stages of this disease, and each of them requires specific cellulite remedies.
- Stage I
The skin loses its elasticity, the orange-peel skin is visible only when you press on the problem area, and your body parameters start increasing gradually. At this stage, you only need to use external cosmetics for cellulite. Use creams, gels, scrubs, and pastes for wraps.
- Stage II
Fat deposits form well-visible seals on the skin. Here, you need to start thinking about additional procedures such as massages. You can start searching for folk remedies for cellulite.
- Stage III
It is simply impossible not to notice the orange-peel skin. The subcutaneous bumps of fat start pinching the nerves, and the skin loses sensitivity. Besides, the muscular tissue stops contracting naturally and becomes coarser. At this stage, you should look through the rating of the best salon procedures for cellulite, go on a diet, and start doing sports. You can start drinking dietary supplements.
- Stage IV
Only pharmacy drugs can cope with advanced cellulite. Moreover, you need something powerful in order to start the treatment process from the inside. External cosmetics are useless here. The skin becomes similar to a dense sponge, it is very cold to the touch, and it gets a bluish tint. The blood flow disorder is pathological, nerve endings are affected, and muscular tissue is atrophied.
It is best to consult a specialist when choosing a cellulite treatment method. If you have to do this yourself, a small rating of the best anti-cellulite products and a brief overview of them will help you in this difficult task:

Scrubs
Anti-cellulite scrubs also belong to cosmetics, like creams and gels. However, they can no longer be classified as superficial, because they can penetrate into the deeper layers of the epidermis. So, their effect will be more significant and noticeable. They exfoliate dead skin particles from the surface of the body, which has the most positive effect on the condition of problem areas.
How to use: rub the problem area of the body with a scrub twice a week after a hot bath or shower. Duration—5-7 minutes. The scrub is then washed off. It is a great way to prepare the skin for massage or wrap.
