Swedish Massage
The most effective home remedy is a vigorous massage combined with the application of topical creams and moisturisers. The majority of these moisturisers and lotions contain caffeine and retinoid. Caffeine is said to be advantageous by inducing adipolysis, whereas retinoid aids by stimulating neovascularization of target tissue and skin thickening by activating fibroblasts. Massage assures topical absorption of these ingredients, drains fluid from the affected area, and stretches the skin to conceal underlying fat protrusions. This basic self-care routine helps prevent cellulite and is the earliest known treatment.
