What is Maca extract?
Maca extract is an active ingredient obtained from the root of maca ( Lepidium meyenii ) , a plant that grows in the high Peruvian Andes and is traditionally known as “Peruvian ginseng”. It is rich in polyphenols that show multiple effects on processes related to cellulite, localized fat deposits, microcirculation and skin firmness.
Unlike many classic anti-cellulite active ingredients that act only on lipolysis, Maca extract simultaneously acts on three key areas:
- stimulating fat breakdown
- improvement of drainage and microcirculation
- increasing skin firmness and quality.

Description
- EFFECT ON FATTY TISSUE
Cellulite is not just an aesthetic problem on the skin’s surface. It is caused by enlarged adipocytes that accumulate triglycerides and create pressure on the surrounding tissue and blood vessels.
Maca extract affects two key metabolic processes:
Stimulation of lipolysis
Lipolysis is the process of breaking down triglycerides stored in adipocytes into fatty acids and glycerol, which the body can use as a source of energy.
Reduction of lipogenesis
Lipogenesis represents the creation and storage of new fats.
- ACTIVATION OF MITOCHONDRAL METABOLISM
One of the most interesting mechanisms of M is the increase in mitochondrial activity.
Mitochondria are the energy centers of the cell responsible for ATP production and fatty acid oxidation. This means that the released fatty acids are not retained in the tissue, but are used locally for energy production.
- ANTI-FIBROSIS ACTION
In advanced cellulite, the problem is not only the amount of fat tissue, but also the appearance of fibrosis. Fibrosis is an excessive accumulation of fibrous connective tissue that “traps” groups of adipocytes and creates the characteristic orange peel appearance.
- IMPROVEMENT OF MICROCIRCULATION AND DRAINAGE
In cellulite, enlarged adipocytes compress blood and lymph vessels.
The result is poor microcirculation, fluid retention, local inflammation and a feeling of heaviness in the legs.
- SKIN FIRMING AND DERMAL MATRIX PROTECTION
Maca extract not only affects the hypodermis but also the dermis.
Activity: increases the synthesis of collagen and increases the synthesis of decorin.
Decorin is a key proteoglycan that:
- organizes collagen fibers
- increases skin firmness
Application in cosmetics
- anti-cellulite gels and creams
- body contouring products
- drainage treatments
- products for heavy legs
- body firming products
- formulations for remodeling the silhouette
- professional body treatments.
Its special feature is that it simultaneously acts on adipose tissue, fibrosis, microcirculation and skin firmness , making it one of the rare active ingredients that encompasses almost all key mechanisms associated with the formation of cellulite.
