Understanding Cellulite and Its Management


 
Health
Cellulite is a common topographic skin change common in post-pubertal females. It is characterized by the medication of the skin’s topography. You will find skin nodularity and dimpling, mostly around the lower limbs, the pelvic region, and the abdomen. You get cellulite when subcutaneous fat herniates within fibrous connective tissue and it has an orange-peel like or padded appearance. Note that cellulite is a description, not a physical object.

What are the Causes of Cellulite?

There is a lot of disinformation around the causes of cellulite and effective cellulite “solutions.” It is believed that some of the causes of cellulite are:

* There is a genetic element in individual susceptibility to cellulite.

* Researchers have found that there are particular polymorphisms that cause cellulites in the hypoxia-inducible factor 1A or HIF1a and the angiotensin converting enzyme or ACE genes.

* There are several factors that cause cellulite. These include race, subcutaneous fat distribution, predisposition to circulatory and lymphatic insufficiency, sex and biotype.

* If you lead a stressful lifestyle, there will be an increase in catecholamines levels. This is believed to cause the evolution of cellulite. You are also at a greater risk if you lead a sedentary lifestyle.

* Diet is also a contributing factor. People who eat too many carbohydrates, salt and fat and too little fiber are more likely to have cellulite.

* Wearing underwear that has tight elastic across the buttocks could limit blood flow and may lead to cellulite formation.

Why Get Rid of Cellulite?

You should get rid of cellulite because, for starters, it is aggravating to those who have it. Although most reasons to eliminate cellulite could be seen as superficial, it can significantly impact people’s lives. For example: some people might be even afraid of wearing swimsuits, due to the appearance of cellulite and the embarrassment that sometimes goes along with it.

Cellulite Solutions

You could manage cellulite by:

1. Exercise: Exercising is one of the most effective ways of getting rid of cellulite. This is because it takes care of the cause of the problem. Some of the most effective exercises are:

* Hypoxie: This is also a popular cellulite treatment that involves the sealing of the lower half of the body in an airtight capsule and pedaling an exercise bike under different pressure conditions for sessions of 40 minutes.

* Walking and Jogging: You need not run hard to get rid of cellulite. Simply walking or jogging for at least 1 ½ miles a day will do wonders for your cellulite.

* Thigh Raise: This involves lying face down and raisin your legs from above the knees so that the feet are inches off the ground. Bend the knees, making sure they do not touch the ground, and hold the position for some time.

2. Cellulite treatments: There are several cellulite solutions in the market. These treatments work by helping in lymphatic drainage at a deep level, breaking down fat cells, and increasing circulation. They include:

* Cellulite Reduction Cream: These creams contain various ingredients like caffeine and essential oils. They stimulate circulation in the area with the cellulite. They are, however, disadvantageous in that they only improve appearance.

3. Technology: There are several devices that are used to get rid of cellulite. These include:

* Endermologie: This is a popular cellulite treatment device that use massage and suction pressure. They work by breaking up pockets of fat and in facilitating lymphatic drainage.

* Radio Frequency Therapy: There are devices that use radio frequency in their operation. The radio frequency works by increasing elastin synthesis and collagen in the dermis through the application of heat and by triggering an enzyme that encourages the breakdown of fat cells (lipolysis). The stimulation of the growth of new capillaries is called angiogenesis.

* Liposuction: This involves the actual removal of the fat on the cellulite. A suction device is inserted under the skin to remove the fat.

* Magnetic Pulsing/Therapy: There are devices that use magnetic pulsing in their operation. The magnetic pulsing works by stimulates angiogenesis for better circulation while encourages works by supporting cells (fibroblasts) to grow.

Other physical and mechanical therapies for cellulite are:

* Heat therapy

* Ultrasound

* Radial wave therapy

* Electrical stimulation

Diet: Dieting is an effective way to reduce the risk of cellulite occurrence and in controlling the condition. The diet should be balanced, rich in fiber, and low in salt, fats, and carbohydrates. You will never go wrong with making fruits and veggies the major portions in your meals. Although cellulites are not associated with weight, most weight loss programs also tend to be cellulite solutions.
