Cellulite is actually more of a cosmetic problem that can be cleared up without undergoing any surgical procedures. There are several natural curative options available for this, most of them capable of providing stunning results.

Success Stories

Cellulite

Cellulite is lumps of fat found under the epithelial surface of the thighs, hips and the buttocks…..or so it is believed. In truth, though, it is because of the loss of strength and sagging of cells that lies in the fatty and connective tissues as well as in the muscle fibers, found below the surface of skin. With each cell wall weakening and drooping, the outer skin surface is given an orange peel-like semblance, which is what actually cellulite is.

Cellulite can develop in any individual. The person need not necessarily be overweight to suffer from this problem. Even slender ‘bodies’ can have visible cellulite formations.

It is believed that since women tend to have lesser layers of muscle fibers beneath the skin covering their butt, hips, and thighs, it is more of a ‘women’s problem.’ Moreover, hormones in females can trigger breakdown of connective tissues in a more rapid manner, leading to cellulite problems. In addition to these, unhealthy diet, weight gain and lack of exercise can also possibly contribute to the formation of cellulite.

Treating Cellulite Surgically

To eliminate cellulite in a more rapid manner, there are surgical treatment options available.

Liposuction: Ultrasound vibrations are created and transmitted into the body via a specialized cannula. This results in breakdown of fat cells, liquefying it for easy elimination with the help of a suction device. The small incisions made are generally left open to heal and to drain fluid out more naturally.

The problem with liposuction is that it can successfully get rid of fat deposited far down the skin’s surface, and not those that are found just beneath the epithelial surface.

Laser Surgery: The incisions required for this procedure are much smaller, small enough to permit a laser probe to heat and dissolve any fat deposits, to divide the bands of fiber so as to make the skin look plump, and to promote collagen formation to thicken and tighten the different layers of skin.

Surgical procedures are generally risky. Swelling, bleeding and infections that possibly could occur from a surgery can probably last longer than desired, and could also lead to other adverse effects. Also, more money is spent on them with no guarantee of seeing any permanent improvement in the skin’s appearance.

Cellulite Natural Remedies

There have been claims that some natural cures available for eliminating cellulite have actually worked for some. These are –

-       Coffee ground packs can be prepared by blending coffee grounds in warm olive oil until a thick paste like consistency is achieved. Apply the paste over the skin lumps and wrap a clean plastic sheet over it. Let it stay for 15-20 minutes and then take a shower. Repeat this thrice in a week and continue to do so until significant results are perceived.

-       Massaging the problem areas with sea salts regularly also will help. Regular vigorous massages will aid in better disintegration of fat cells, will improve blood flow, and get rid of the cellulite lumps.

Other than these, following an exercise routine, a detoxification program to flush toxins out of the body, and making healthy diet choices have also benefited some in reducing the appearance of their cellulite.
