Cellulite
Cellulite treatments, like deep massages or creams, advertise significant results. Regrettably, most of these treatments don’t live up to their claims. Rest assured that researchers are constantly studying possible medical treatments to complete the steps of cellulite removal.
A Word from the Wise
Cellulite is triggered by rubbery connective cords that tether the skin to the underlying muscle, with fat lying between. As the fat cells accumulate, they push up against the skin, while the tough cords are pulling down. This creates an uneven surface or dimpling or better yet, cellulite.
It is common for women to have cellulite more than men, this is because women store more fat in order to reproduce. As horrible as that is you can also feel a little better knowing that all women have it, even the really skinny ones.
The best natural prevention to cellulite is keeping an active lifestyle, if you are in the stages where you can slow down the signs, walk, run, skip, bike… do whatever to keeps those legs toned.
What would your physician say?
Losing weight and firming muscles in your legs, thighs, buttocks and abdomen you can improve the presence of dimpled skin. The benefits of weight loss alone are endless; cellulite will be greatly reduced, however not completely.
The most hopeful medical treatment is lasers and radiofrequency systems, yet those are not for everyone due to the expense. These systems offer improvements to cellulite after a series of treatments and can last up to six months.
A few people turn to Liposuction to obliterate cellulite. During liposuction, a surgeon inserts a narrow tube under your skin through tiny incisions and then suctions out fat. Liposuction can contour the body, it won’t remove cellulite, and it may make the cellulite appear worse.
Laser-assisted liposuction is a fresher, less invasive form of this treatment that destroys fat cells while tightening the skin which is effective for cellulite.
Treatment through topical application is the most common treatment because of its affordability, and ease of use. Doctors prescribe 0.3 percent retinol cream which has been shown to improve the appearance of cellulite after six months.
