how to treat cellulite

1/10/2022

Comments

 
Lumpy and uneven skin on hips, thighs or buttocks is usually a sign of cellulite. Cellulite generally develops when the skin in certain areas of fat is pulled downward to the deeper tissues from tissue bands that are connected, which then creates an uneven, rough skin surface. Due to the connective tissue division, fat and muscle,  cellulite affects women more than men which is around 80 to 90 percent of women, however cellulite is not dangerous or painful. Cellulite can be found commonly on hips, thighs, abdomen, breasts, buttocks.

what causes cellulite?

The buildup of fat underneath the skin is what causes the cellulite and some women are more influenced by it than others. Number of cellulite and how noticeable it is can depend on the genes, body fat, age, and thickness of the skin. Women with all body types can get cellulite and it is more common in females than males which is due to the distribution of fat being more visible in women. The appearance of the cellulite is usually due to collagen fibres between the skin and muscles separating the fat into multiple pockets. This reveals the rippled connective tissues underneath the skin. This is also because the skin loses elasticity and it becomes thinner as you age, however, cellulite can be caused also by hormones, poor diet, unhealthy lifestyle, increased toxins, genetics, weight gain and pregnancy.

topical treatments

The visibility of cellulite can be reduced by topical treatments however, the effects may not be long lasting. The skin appears smoother and firmer by applying creams which makes the skin tighter and also adds moisture. These kinds of creams should be applied regularly to reduce the visibility of cellulite. Due to the fat cells still existing beneath the skin, creams cannot remove the cellulite but temporarily lessen the appearance. 

Caffeine is a common ingredient in topical cellulite treatment creams. It increases blood flow to the area and also works as a diuretic, to increase the amount of water and salt expelled from the body as urine. That can change the water content of the fat which can reduce the visibility of cellulite.

Creams or products that contain 0.3 retinol may also reduce the appearance of cellulite by helping to thicken the outer layer of the skin. Like other topical products, you have to be applying it regularly to see the results. You have to keep in mind that retinol can cause skin sensitivities such as dryness, redness, peeling and sensitivity to the sun. Cellulite cream was shown notable results when it was combined with personal dietary recommendations. Study found out that the cream appeared to amplify the benefits of dietary control in reducing the appearance of cellulite marks.

medical procedures

  • Cryolipolysis
Cryolipolysis or also known as CoolSculpting, is a noninvasive procedure which removes cellulite by freezing the fat cells under the skin. This leads to the body absorbing the fat contents due the breaking of the fat cells. To dissolve an inch of fat takes several treatments which may take 3 or 4 months to see a visible reduction in cellulite. 
  • Cellulaze
​Cellulaze is a type of a laser treatment procedure that breaks up the connective fats tough bands beneath the skin that make cellulite more visible. This procedure can thicken your skin and improvements can be noticeable after a couple of treatments and last 6 months or longer.
  • ​Cellfina
​Cellfina is a nonsurgical procedure. During the procedure, a needle is used to break up the tough bands under the skin to get rid of cellulite on the thighs and buttocks. Results can be seen in as little as three days and can last up to three years.
  • Acoustic wave therapy
This treatment was developed to reduce cellulite and it works by vibrating the connective tissue in areas of the body vulnerable to cellulite. This helps to stimulate and increase collagen production, improving the appearance, texture, and elasticity of the skin. Several treatments are needed in order to see results.

home remedies

Exercise can help you reduce body fat, which makes cellulite less noticeable. Choose an exercise program that combines aerobic exercise and strength training this way can will help you burn body fat, and tone and define your muscles. A body that is more muscular will look and feel smoother and firmer.

Dry brushing technique is said to stimulate blood and lymph flow, remove dead skin cells, and stimulate new cell growth. It may support detoxification and stimulate your nervous system.

Your diet may affect cellulite, so it’s important to eat a balanced, healthy diet. A healthy diet can also help you to maintain a healthy weight. Reduce processed and high-sugar foods that can lead to the accumulation of toxins and fat in the body, and increase your fibre intake.

Dehydration can make cellulite more noticeable. Water flushes your body and removes toxins that can cause cellulite. Make a point to increase your water intake. It’s recommended that women drink at least nine cups of water each day.

Important part of your well-being is heavily connected to your mental health which determines the way you are able to function psychologically, emotionally, and socially among other people. It is important to follow a certain aspect of lifestyle to improve your psychological health considering how much role mental wellbeing can affect the way we behave and interact. There are various circumstances that affect mental health which can be the risk factors. It is usually described that a state of well-being is how a person is able to cope with the normal stresses of life which can disrupt daily activities we engage in and how we are managing the changes in our life.

RISK FACTORS FOR POOR Mental health

​Poor and unhealthy lifestyle can be the first example of poor mental health. Things such as smoking, poor diet, excessive alcohol consumption, substance use can cause harm to your psychological behaviour. This type of lifestyle can cause depression and anxiety which is a sign of poor mental wellbeing. 

​Environment is also a big factor in your mental wellbeing which can be everything from the house, city, weather in your area, the social climate and work environment. These environments can have a negative factor that affects you which can cause stress, depression and anxiety therefore it is important to either change location or live in a positive social environment which can improve your mental health. 

Number of mental health disorders can run in the family which can be passed down to the children. These conditions include autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder, depression, and schizophrenia.

Another cause of developing a mental health disorder is linked to children who have been sexually abused, experienced physical and emotional assault, these can lead to severe mental and emotional distress. Children may eventually deal with substance and alcohol issues later in their life or have mental disorders like depression, high anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, or personality disorders.

improving mental health

Mental health is also linked to personal feelings and how a person deals with oneself. Self-esteem plays a big role in mental wellness because confidence can be a good sign of a healthy mental state. Person whose mental health is healthy is more likely to focus on the good and positive side they possess. By maintaining and focusing on the good things you will strive for a healthier and happier life. Changing the way of thinking and having a positive mindset can improve your work productivity and social relationship which will eventually boost your mental health.

Studies suggest that physical exercise may help avoid mental health problems before they start or help cope with them.

Not getting enough sleep can worsen mental health and cause mental distress, especially in people with existing mental health conditions. Keeping a consistent sleep schedule and having enough sleep can improve mental and general health. 

​Massage or Massage treatments are usually a great way to decrease stress and anxiety because of relaxation of the body which is good for mental health. All kinds of massages are good for stress relief, anxiety and depression. Carisma Spa & Wellness recommends Anti-Stress Massage for stress related problems, the therapist uses a special anti-stress oil that releases tensions. Massage therapies not only reduce Cortisol, it also increases serotonin and dopamine which is the body's feel-good chemicals. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that regulates mood, hunger, and sleep and a general sense of well-being. Turkish Bath or hammam is another great way of releasing toxins and stress from your body which is usually done with body exfoliation and foam massage on a heated marble.
