Cellulite won't go away

Alas, few of us can boast perfect skin without a hint of cellulite. Professional tools there are many to deal with this scourge. These are different types of massage, thalassotherapy, mesotherapy, electrical stimulation and others. But they are expensive and not available to everyone. However, there are also quite effective home remedies that help improve the condition of problem areas. In the fight against the "orange peel" will help several products, which are especially pleasant to use in the summer, when we have more strength, the desire to do something and the ability to get out of their own burrows.

Means 1. Sports

You can't do without them. Only regular exercise can be beneficial and correct the situation. After all, they not only train muscles and burn calories, but also improve blood circulation, lymph flow and activate metabolism, as a result of which the fat layer decreases, muscles are strengthened and the skin tone increases.

Fortunately, it is not at all necessary to carve out a watch for sports. Nowadays, many programs have been developed that allow you to reduce the appearance of cellulite, spending 20-30 minutes a day on it. As an example, we can cite the Jillian Michaels set of exercises, designed for people with different levels of training and, thanks to this, feasible for everyone, but at the same time very effective and does not require almost any equipment, except sports uniform, small (!) dumbbells and a rug. There are many others, including anti-cellulite, training systems.

Means 2. Grinding

After intense exercise, be sure to take a shower, rubbing the whole body, and especially problem areas with an anti-cellulite brush or a hard mitten. For greater effect, it is better to moisten them in a solution that enhances the effect.

Anti-cellulite solution recipe:

2 tbsp. tablespoons of table salt

1 tbsp. a spoonful of apple cider vinegar (no flavoring)

Rubbing should be done with short and strong movements in a certain order: first, the legs from toes to hips, abdomen, back, sides, shoulders, neck and chest (rub it much more carefully in a circular motion, from the armpits from the bottom to the middle, up, again to the armpits). In summer, after rubbing, it is better to leave the skin moist.

If rubbing is carried out regularly, then the effect will not be long in coming. After all, such a procedure makes the skin more elastic and elastic, strengthens it and helps to cope with cellulite.

Means 3. Wraps

Hot or cold anti-cellulite wraps are inexpensive, actively act on the manifestations of cellulite and significantly smooth out the tuberosity. The following wraps have shown themselves to be the most effective:

1. Honey wrap

Honey nourishes and tightens the skin while stimulating metabolic processes.

  • Apply honey to the skin and wrap with plastic wrap. Leave the honey to act for 20 to 30 minutes. Then wash it off. It is best to use fresh, still liquid honey. If it is already sugared, melt it in a water bath, but make sure that the water temperature does not exceed 60 degrees, otherwise honey will lose most of its beneficial properties. Other useful ingredients can be added to honey: essential oils, ground coffee, dry mustard, etc.
  • Helps fight cellulite well and honey massage... It requires virtually no physical effort. Just put some honey on your palms, apply them to problem areas and take away. Soon the palms will begin to stick strongly to the skin, massaging it. If the "sticking" effect does not come for a long time, use another honey, perhaps yours is too old or simply a fake.

2. Clay wrap

You can use any of the clays available in pharmacies, all of them give a good result: they restore the salt balance, accelerate metabolic processes and affect subcutaneous fats.

  • Dilute the clay small amount warm water and thin layer apply to skin. Wrap the top with plastic wrap and leave for 20 - 30 minutes.

3. Vinegar wrap

Another inexpensive recipe... Mix equal parts apple cider vinegar and water (you cannot use "pure" vinegar!). Moisten gauze in the resulting mixture, wrap it around, wrapping it on top cling film, and wrap yourself up (for example, put on a warm jacket or even lie under a blanket). The duration of the wrap is at least 30 minutes.

Good help to fight for smooth skin and other wraps: chocolate, oil, seaweed. Try different ones, and you will definitely find for yourself those that will help you.

Means 4. Self-massage

In addition to rubbing, it would be good to do self-massage regularly. And this will help with this useful invention, how massage cans... They can be bought at pharmacies, medical supply stores, or ordered online. Prices for massage banks range from 100 - 200 rubles for the simplest copies to 4000 - 5000 rubles. Moreover, the cheapest copies are no less effective, except that when using them, your hands get tired a little more. Massage with cans is especially effective if you apply any anti-cellulite cream or even vegetable oil to the skin before using them. Self-massage, like other ways to combat cellulite, must be done regularly. Only in this case can you count on tangible and visible results.

Remedy 5. Proper nutrition

He doesn't come alone. As a rule, cellulite is inseparable from excess body fat, impaired microcirculation, fragility of blood vessels, weakening of skin tone ... Therefore good programs to get rid of cellulite, they work in a complex way, affecting all of the listed problems. This is a painstaking and lengthy process in which various methods are combined: wraps, peeling, lymphatic drainage massage courses, hardware procedures. We have selected 10 ways to fight cellulite that really work.

1st place: Ultrasonic lipolysis


Safe alternative liposuction. Under the influence of ultrasonic waves in fat cells, lipocytes, microscopic vacuum bubbles are formed. As soon as they "explode", the lipocyte membranes cannot withstand the pressure and burst. The fat flows into the space between the cells, where it is picked up and carried away by the lymph.

Popular

2nd place: LPG


This popular abbreviation hides a vacuum lymphatic drainage massage, which is done on a special apparatus. You can install various programs on it - anti-cellulite, lymphatic drainage, tightening (it is especially recommended to combine them). The device captures the folds of the skin, rolls them over and "grinds" them. These manipulations achieve a strong lymphatic drainage effect. The excess fluid is then actively excreted from the body in the urine. And what is especially pleasing - the procedures are painless. The main thing is to drink a liter of plain water before and after the vacuum massage procedure, otherwise you are not far from dehydration.

Typically, ten LPG treatments are prescribed at intervals of two to three days. The result is impressive: up to 4-6 cm is lost in volume. Cost: from 2000 rubles.

3rd place: CELLULIT'VIB program


Aesthetic medicine constantly delights with new products that promise quick results. It's nice that many of them are painless, have no contraindications and complications. Among the latest developments is the CELLULIT'VIB program from the French professional brand ERICSON LABORATOIRE. The procedure removes cellulite and excess fat deposits. The creators announced it as a cosmetic alternative to ultrasonic lipolysis. During the procedure, preparations containing herbal ingredients obtained through biotechnology are applied to the skin in a certain sequence. These secret components trigger the same mechanisms in fat cells as ultrasound (see above). As a bonus, enzyme systems are activated that are responsible for the breakdown and excretion of fats, as well as fibrous changes that deform the skin surface ("orange peel") are eliminated.

4th place: Biocell


This apparatus has combined the energy of ultrasound and vacuum roller massage... This method is effective even with later stages cellulite. Ultrasonic waves break the connective tissue fibers, returning to the skin natural look... In addition, ultrasound stimulates blood flow, which also helps break down fat. In parallel, a vacuum roller massage is performed, which enhances lymphatic drainage. The flow of blood and oxygen to the tissues increases, stimulating intracellular metabolism. As a result, the skin tone rises and improves appearance... The Biocell device also allows you to perform electrolymphatic drainage and myostimulation using bandages with built-in electrodes. Contraindications to its use are acute inflammatory diseases of internal organs, skin defects in the area of ​​exposure, cholelithiasis and urolithiasis, recurrent thrombophlebitis.

5th place: Myostimulation


This popular procedure is almost universal: it increases muscle tone, activates cell metabolism, improves skin structure, eliminates cellulite symptoms, restores the shape of the mammary glands, blocks pain syndromes... A special device causes muscle contractions, as in sports, only more frequent. One session of myostimulation replaces approximately two hours of training in gym... Areas where the procedure can be carried out: thighs, calves, abdomen, shoulders, chest, face. Contraindications are cardiovascular diseases and the presence of a pacemaker, skin diseases in the stage of exacerbation, thyroid disease (for procedures in the neck); pathology of the pelvic organs (for procedures in the abdomen), etc.

6th place: Pressotherapy


Pressotherapy or press massage is another popular weapon in the fight against cellulite. The goal is lymphatic system: she is exposed to compressed air through special cuffs. (Calm, everything is under control: the pressure is dosed by a computer!) During the procedure, you will be offered to sit on the couch. Depending on the area of ​​influence, you have to put on special long boots (for the legs), a wide belt (for the abdomen and thighs) or long gloves (for the hands). Elastic cuffs connect to the device and provide mechanical impact on the skin and muscles of the body by alternating high and low air pressure. This lasts from 30 seconds to 2 minutes. The procedure dilates blood vessels, increases blood flow to the skin, subcutaneous tissue and muscles. Contraindications: pregnancy from the 4th month; skin damage (inflammation, suppuration); renal, hepatic, or cardiovascular failure; malignant tumors; fractures; lesions of small and large vessels with diabetes mellitus; skin diseases; the beginning of the menstrual cycle.

7th place: Mesotherapy


Cellulite will definitely not resist if mesotherapy is added to the hardware procedures. With the help of microinjections into the deep layers of the skin, a fat-burning cocktail is introduced into problem areas. Its composition is selected individually. Once in the body, lipolytic components begin to dissolve fat deposits. The excess fluid is then excreted in the urine.

8th place: Radiofrequency lifting (thermage)


Get ready - it will be hot! During the procedure, the deep layers of the dermis are heated. This stimulates the production of collagen and elastin fibers. And they, as you know very well, support and tighten the skin. In a word, the body is getting younger. It is curious that the effect of the procedure is not immediately visible. It manifests itself on the rise within six months. But the results persist for one and a half to two years. Contraindications are: the presence of artificial pacemakers, metal pins in the area of ​​the device, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, oncological and neurological diseases, pregnancy, lactation, etc.

9th place: Wraps


Perhaps one of the most pleasant anti-cellulite procedures is various wraps using mud, algae, sea ​​salt, plant extracts. IN modern cosmetology wraps based on kelp and fucus are especially popular. These components enhance the breakdown of fat, improve water-salt metabolism, remove toxins and increase skin tone. In the "menu" of beauty salons there are more non-standard options... For example, green coffee wraps. It turns out that this product is able not only to drive away sleep, but also to stimulate the breakdown of fats, speed up metabolism, reduce swelling and remove excess fluid from tissues. For this, however, only unroasted coffee beans are suitable, and even then as part of special cosmetics(concentrated gels and serums). They are rich in chlorogenic acid, polysaccharides, proteins and essential oils.


Another unusual preparation for anti-cellulite wrapping is guarana concentrate. It has a complex lipolytic and anti-cellulite action... Wrapping can also be used as a one-time procedure for instant effect lifting and good tone skin, and as a course treatment to obtain a lasting anti-cellulite result. For maximum effect, wraps are usually combined with peeling (the same coffee or sea salt), anti-cellulite massage, exposure to low or high temperatures, hardware techniques.


Cost: from 1500 rubles.

10th place: Home care


An auxiliary, but important link in complex therapy cellulite is the use of anti-cellulite cosmetics at home. To improve microcirculation, menthol, camphor, nicotinic acid are added to anti-cellulite preparations. To strengthen blood vessels - extracts of horse chestnut, ginkgo-biloba, butcher's broom. For the effect on adipose tissue - caffeine, extracts of iodine-rich algae, guarana, mate. To improve the supply of oxygen to cells and accelerate metabolic processes - coenzyme Q10 and carnitine. Vitamins also help the "common cause", especially C, E, A and group B. Daily use of anti-cellulite drugs in combination with professional methods, correction food addictions and increasing physical activity are the key to success. Cellulite will not withstand such an onslaught.

Help with sourness


Make it a habit to drink a glass half an hour before breakfast warm water with a slice of lemon - but certainly without sugar. This simple drink helps to normalize metabolism and cleanse the body of toxins, which is important in countering cellulite. The unsurpassed effect of this habit has been appreciated by many stars, including Eva Mendes. Just look, if you have high acidity, be sure to consult your doctor.

And wrinkled skin is just the tip of the iceberg. External deterioration entail the manifestation of deeper changes that occur in the connective tissue. This is a consequence of impaired circulation, expansion of fat cells and the retention of toxins in them. Although cellulite occurs in adipose tissue, the reasons and ways to remove it have nothing to do with diet, exercise, or lifestyle changes. This can be the result of more complex factors, ranging from the state of hormone levels in heredity.

Who is at risk?

It is estimated that 95% of women over the age of 20 suffer from some degree of cellulite. This figure also includes athletic women, super models, women who lead a healthy lifestyle. In women, cellulite appears as a corrugated skin, stretch marks, orange peel. In addition, in certain parts of the body in women there is a reserve layer of fat, which is absent in men. Usually men do not suffer from cellulite, since the structure of their subcutaneous fat is different from women. In women, the vessels are located perpendicular to the surface of the skin. In males, they intersect with each other, forming fewer polygonal chambers. The difference in cell shape and skin thickness in men makes them less prone to fat storage and cellular deformation.

Cellulite often appears during hormonal changes, including during the end of puberty and during pregnancy. Natural process aging can enhance the position of its external manifestation, due to the tendency to thinning of the skin.

The most common forms of cellulite

Compact cellulite is characterized by hardening or fibrosis of the connective tissue, often due to poor lymph circulation. This type of cellulite occurs mainly in older women.
