Cellulite – When It’s Not Just a Cosmetic Concern But Tells You Something About Your Health
“Remedies against cellulite” is, statistically, one of the most common searches on the web. There are many questions about how to defeat it or even just reduce it, and just as many remedies on offer, but which of these are truly reliable? A pleasant scent and a catchy tagline aren’t enough to make a product your ally.
When it comes to cellulite, it’s best to rely on industry professionals who can properly advise you on which treatments and products to choose based on your specific type of cellulite, looking into the triggering factors – such as poor habits and a sedentary lifestyle, to name just the most common ones – and building a programme with you aimed, first and foremost, at gradually changing the habits that trigger it.
Cellulite shows up differently from person to person: in some cases it can improve with targeted treatments and specific products, but there are also more severe forms that require medical intervention – which is why it’s important to treat it professionally right from when it first appears.
Cellulite is an inflammation of the subcutaneous tissue caused by a chain of factors that slow down lymphatic flow and the body’s detoxification, first leading to water retention and then to actual fibrous strands beneath the skin, which show up as the characteristic surface dimpling we mainly see on the upper legs, and less frequently on other areas of the body.
During our professional consultation, we assess where the cellulite is located, its triggering factors (genetics, disordered eating habits or poor posture, hormonal factors, etc.), what type it is, and what stage we’re looking at. At that point, we work out together a path that starts with adopting positive habits to counter the build-up and physiological inflammation that lead to the appearance of cellulite. At the same time, we begin to detoxify the body from the toxins that hinder an efficient flow of fluids, using specific treatments and dietary supplements. After that, it’s important to assess how the body responds, in order to determine a targeted, effective treatment path aimed at improvement.
