• Cellulite is characterized by lumpy or uneven skin on the thighs, hips, buttocks, breasts, or abdomen.
• It occurs when fat in the skin is pulled down by connective tissue bands into the underlying tissues.
• The vacuum created results in uneven skin.
• Moreover, cellulite is more prevalent in women than it is in men.
• Around 80 to 90% of all women are believed to face cellulite to some degree.
• Here’s all you need to know about it:
What Causes Cellulite?
• While the effects of cellulite are the same for every person, its extent varies.
• The amount you get is based on several factors, such as body fat percentage, genes, and age.
• The thickness of your skin can also determine how visible cellulite is.
• It tends to become more visible as you age since the skin becomes more elastic and thinner.
• The causes experts commonly attribute cellulite to include:
• An unhealthy lifestyle that affects your skin and body.
• Hormonal imbalances.
• A poor diet.
• Accumulated toxins in the body affect the skin as well.
• Your genetics.
• A weight gain, which adds more fat to your skin.
• Pregnancy.
• Long periods of inactivity that weaken your muscles and skin.
How Is It Treated?
• You might be tempted to try out topical treatments, such as skin creams, as a treatment for cellulite.
• Such treatments do help hide the effect cellulite has on your skin, but they are not a long-term, working solution.
• Instead, several medical procedures are utilized to treat cellulite, such as:
• Ultrasounds, which is a non-invasive treatment that helps use ultrasound waves to remove fat from inside the body, specifically the abdomen and the thighs. Ultrasound is usually combined with another cellulite treatment.
• Cryolipolysis is another noninvasive procedure that freezes the fat beneath the skin. The freezing ruptures the fat cells and their contents are consequently absorbed by the body.
• Cellfina, a nonsurgical procedure in which the tough bands of fat caused by cellulite are broken with a needle. The procedure is often used for the buttocks and thighs.
• Laser and radiofrequency treatments to remove the fat from beneath the skin.
• Acoustic wave therapy in which the connective tissues are vibrated to break apart the collected fat.
• Carboxytherapy, in which carbon dioxide is injected into the skin to increase blood flow and break up clumps of fat.
• Vacuum-assisted precise tissue release, in which small blades are used to cut apart the bands.
Home Remedies for Cellulite
• Some home remedies you can use to reduce the chances or effects of cellulite include:
• Exercising to improve your health and tone your muscles and skin.
• Improving your diet and lifestyle, which has a direct bearing on the health of your skin.
• Exfoliation with ground coffee can help remove dead skin cells and promote growth.
• Dry brushing your skin can help improve blood circulation and lymph flow.
• Enriching your diet with antioxidant-rich foods such as berries or apple cider vinegar can help you improve skin health and reduce weight.

I got rid of my cellulite with a technique I was doing for my feet in the first place but then I noticed that my stubborn cellulite was fading away. I lie down on a yoga mat or couch and put my feet up in the air and shake my legs as fast and hard as I can then rest a few seconds and start again. Let the fat wobble! Do it until you can or until it feels good. You gonna fell the blood circulating in your legs like crazy! When I noticed the change I knew it was from this crazy exercise because I had it since I was 18 and never did anything about it. Now 24 years later I have smooth skin on my legs! I started applying massage as well keeping my legs up in the air. It's more like a "dusting" movement. Like when you dust off beach sand from your body but with a little pressure. Always "dust" downwards whilst keeping legs up. The faster you do it the better. Use your fingers, not your hands. You can do it while watching tv if you want. It really works !!! I'd make a tutorial video if I wasn't camera shy! Good luck everyone!!

@Eleanorbbb I had them on my thighs - back and front. But my sister does it in candle position for the butt. If too difficult in candle, lie down on your left side, bend left knee for support and put up right leg straight towards the ceiling and shake like that. Than repeat on the other side. In the same position you can do the dusting massage. Always lead blood towards the heart. Never towards the feet. I don't know why it works but it does! I believe those fat cells are not used to this kind of vibration and they start to shrink. Good luck, I would love to hear if it works for you too! Take photos for yourself to compare after a few weeks.

You mean like shaking the legs only? Or do I shake it with my hands?

[@timmytee734]

@@haya6611 Just the legs without hands.

[@spacefreak319]

[@starlightakabane4686]

May I ask how long you did it for, per day?

[@melbanana8369]

[@dkizzy865]

I know why

[@Ososkkisksksmssmsmssmssms]

Pretty sure we all got it regardless

[@bryanutility9609]

Great you showed the truth about the condition.🙏🏼

[@DrLotfi-lk7wf]

Actually consuming fiber has a lot to do with tissue being firm, I like the freeze approach.. what it actually does is making your body transform yellow fat which we call white into a brown one to produce heat.. That explains why in cold areas u cannot find fat people)

[@timmytee734]

So true!

[@stephaniepike27]

But Santa Clause is fat🤔

[@asmaashibli1773]

Can you please explain the relationship between consuming fibre and freezing baths? I didn’t quite understand, should I consume fibre and do freezing baths to treat cellulite?

[@DrLotfi-lk7wf]

@@asmaashibli1773 It’s a lot to explain, to make it shorter cellulite is the combination of excess fat, lymph low functioning and toxins: 1) jump 2) avoid dairy 3) get rid of toxins Be patient, transformation takes at least 6 months! good luck 🤞

It's fantastic to hear that you've had success in reducing the appearance of cellulite after your pregnancy. Collagen supplements and regular workouts can indeed contribute to improved skin elasticity and muscle tone. Your dedication to a home workout routine and a healthy lifestyle is paying off, and it's great to see positive results that make you feel more confident. Keep up the good work!
