Cause And Solution To Cellulite
Cellulite is a fatty deposit causing a dimpled or uneven appearance, as around the thighs and buttocks.
Cellulite is popularly known to be difficult to remove by dieting and that often has a dimpled appearance. There is no physiological difference between cellulite and ordinary fat. Cellulite is a normal human variation that can be seen by the other person. It is usually treated as some sort of disease. The term "cellulite" came into being in the year 1973 to refer to the dimpled appearance of the skin that some people have on their buttocks, hips and thighs. This appearance is much more common in women than in men because of differences in the way fat, muscle, and connective tissue are distributed in men and women's skin. Female hormones play a major role in contributing to this fat distribution, cellulite is not treatable by hormone therapy.
Cellulite should always be seen as a normal variation. In fact it can be seen just the way a normal body part is seen. It can be seen just as a dimpled appearance, like some people having thick hair while others have thin hair. Cellulite is a very normal variation.
Cellulite can also be viewed as the dimpling pattern on skin caused by lobules of underlying adipose tissue. Cellulite is not a medical or scientific term but refers only to aesthetics. .
Cellulite does not necessarily emanate from a single cause. many hormonal and genetic factors result in cellulite formation.
Researchers have found the following factors to be the main factors affecting formation of cellulite - incorrect & improper diet, life-style, alcohol, smoking, insufficient water intake, tight clothing, blood pressure, high heels, etc.
Cellulite can be reduced by suitable physical exercise, balanced diet, massage treatments, liposuction or using specific treatments. At-home treatments include a low- fat diet and dietary supplements. Research has proved that so-called cellulite treatments aren't that effective as the claim is made out to be. These products don't come under the purview of FDA, so there isn't any scientific basis to evaluate their effectiveness and make suitable conclusions.
In sum, eating a healthy diet and keeping muscles toned by regular exercise seem like reasonable approaches to keeping the body as taut and smooth as it can be. Patients should be very cautious before trying out surgical procedures, dietary supplements, or elaborate massage techniques of unproven value. The dont's for cellulite are salt, fatty acids, red meat, full fat dairy products, refined carbohydrates, junk food, etc. On the other hand, the do's list contains more water consumption, fresh vegetables, raw fruits, bottom brushing, etc.
The dry brush massage technique helps keep skin pores open and stimulates circulation in underlying tissues. Bottom brushing can be done in the morning or evening. Take a natural bristle brush, start from your feet and with a long motion work upwards in circular movements. Effects of bottom brushing can be better felt by alternating between hot and cold shower, also called 'skin gymnastics'.
Remember, cellulite is an issue of having too much fat and too little muscle. Right exercise program can produce big changes in your cellulite situation and major improvements in your appearance.
