"Despite the billions of dollars spent on skin-contouring creams, most women still encounter cellulite as they age, which can persist even with weight loss. Scientists have now discovered why.

Cellulite is caused by vascular changes that affect superficial fat just below the skin’s surface. Women have a greater capacity to hold more of this visible superficial fat than men. Women also have more fat-storage receptors in cellulite-prone areas.

These factors combined with an age-related decrease in circulation weaken collagen fibers in the outer skin cells. The result is the characteristic dimpled effect of cellulite that occurs when buoyant adipocytes (fat cells) protrude into the outer skin cells toward the skin’s surface.

Based on extensive research, Life Extension has identified seven compounds that may offer an effective multi-modal approach to correct the mechanisms involved in cellulite formation. All of these scientifically proven ingredients can be found in our Cellulite Suppress™ Formula.

Most topical cellulite products contain one or two active ingredients. As cellulite is the visible manifestation of multiple physiological processes, the approach of including one agent does not address all of the biological processes that result in the formation of cellulite. Cellulite Suppress™ Formula is the only formula available that provides all of these important scientifically tested ingredients.

Scientists in Europe have developed two groundbreaking ingredients contained in Cellulite Suppress™ Formula: Adiposlim™ and Adipoless™. A clinical trial using Adiposlim™ on the thigh area showed a visual improvement in the appearance of cellulite in 71% of treated subjects. Both Adiposlim™ and Adipoless™ work in synergy to help reduce the appearance of stubborn cellulite. Glycyrrhetinic acid (from licorice) reduces the expression of inflammatory factors that aggravate cellulite. An active duo of innovative marine extracts Phycoboreane™ and Rhodysterol™ work in synergy to stimulate key enzymes that are essential to the body’s natural defense against cellulite. Both ingredients also help to maintain healthy circulation in the skin.

Cellulite Suppress™ Formula also contains Escin (horse chestnut seed extract), which helps reduce the appearance of cellulite through its ability to strengthen the infrastructure of the skin. Another skin-firming ingredient is Centella asiatica, which improves the elasticity of the skin.

Recent discoveries have uncovered the underlying mechanisms involved in cellulite formation and provided a scientific rationale to reduce the appearance of cellulite on the back of the legs, buttocks, and other parts of women’s bodies. Cellulite Suppress™ Formula contains seven scientifically tested ingredients. For the first time, women can achieve toned, firmer, and smoother skin in one cutting-edge, multi-ingredient formula called Cellulite Suppress™ Formula. "
