How amazing everyone seems to have a ready cure for a naturally occurring naturally in the body! First understand what cellulite is and what leads to its development, before hopping into the nearby drug store to pick a ‘cure’.
But What is Cellulite?
Cellulite is localized lipodystrophy or fat accidentally deposited in several specific areas of the body. It is caused by genetic inheritance, failure to exercise off excess body fat, poor dietary habits, especially intake of toxin-adding foods like alcohol, caffeine and smoking. Birth control pills also contribute to cellulite formation in your body not to mention low water intake and stress as other causes. So what cellulite treatment should you opt for after knowing the causes?
Cellulite Treatment Options
You could opt for natural home-made remedies or off-the-shelf cellulite lotions and creams that come in many forms and brands. But even as you resort to these forms of treatment, bear in mind that the surefire way of reduction of appearance and development of cellulite in your body is by keeping fit through exercise, a proper well-balanced diet coupled with adequate water intake to kick out the toxins from your body. Vita Moor Body Wrap and cellulite Contour Crème combine very well to help you achieve a cellulite free body. Add exercise to the mix and you’ll see results with time. The downside to this is that exercise and crèmes alone are unlikely to help get your hormonal imbalances right. So you may still need to consider hormonal injections as a form of treating cellulite.
Liposuction or the removal of deep fat is not very reliable as a form of cellulite treatment since cellulite is only shallow fat that is directly beneath the skin. Any results gained from liposuction are temporary but you’ve more options, like injectable fat melters, one of the latest drug delivery systems that promises to reduce wrinkles, to tighten your skin, while at the same time filling in your deep dimples. This method is now known for its minimal harm. If you don’t want to be pumped with drugs, then opt for laser toning.
In laser toning, a device called Galaxie, normally used with facial wrinkles, directs radio frequency and laser light energy under your skin surface. This is supposed to produce a ‘wound’ response hence triggering growth of new collagen while tightening the skin. Results from this procedure are good. To temporarily reduce appearance of cellulite, choose a cold-laser massage that combines suction massage to induce increased lymphatic drainage filtering cell fluid. To stimulate collagen production, low intensity diodes get heated. This also results in tightening of the skin, with a cooling head guarding against the burning sensation. It is a painless process according to many who have undergone it.
Turning to treatment of cellulite using creams, opt for those containing Aminophlline. This element dilates the bronchus area stimulating a chemical reaction that in turn enables the fat cells to be transformed into fatty acids able to permeate cell membranes into the bloodstream. Use your creams fast and with care and remember to store them away from heat. Treatment of cellulite also requires creams containing Vitamin A extracts (retinoids) that should only be applied in the night as light damages retinol. applying retinol improves circulation in the skin while smoothing it. Some anti cellulite lotions have traces of caffeine while others contain herbal extracts that help better your skin tone and texture.
Mechanically, you can also use rollers to massage areas affected by cellulite as this is a sure way of reducing cellulite appearance on your skin. Take extra caution to see that whichever treatment of cellulite you choose to use, is friendly to your skin and helps you achieve what you yearn for. |
