Cellulite reduction and Body contouring: Popular treatment

How to tighten thighs and thighs, reduce cellulite, make the skin of the body smoother in the season of open dresses. Summer has come, our today's topic is relevant for many. Today Consider the most popular methods that will help you remove loose skin and remove cellulite on legs - lymphatic drainage massage full body, wraps, cellulite reduction treatment, and at the end I will tell you how to reduce cellulite at home. So be sure to watch the video to the end.

First, let me tell you why cellulite appears. It can even occur in young women. Its cause isn`t age but rather lifestyle, body structure, hormonal balance, and skin density. In addition to a genetic predisposition to cellulite and skin sagging, one of the reasons is edema. Due to low tissue mobility, fluid accumulates and stagnates, disrupting blood circulation and lymphatic flow. Fat cells retain water and begin to enlarge. If left untreated, edema intensifies and manifests as orange peel skin, sagging on the thighs, buttocks, and abdomen.

If you want to check if edema is the cause of your cellulite, try massaging yourself, for example, on your thighs. If it feels painful or sensitive, then it's edema. To get rid of edematous cellulite, you need remedies aimed at improving microcirculation of blood and lymph.

Let's consider the most popular method of cellulite reduction: full body lymphatic drainage massage or full legs lymphatic drainage massage.

Lymphatic drainage massage of the legs and the whole body is an effective method that helps improve blood circulation, speed up metabolism, and facilitate toxin removal from the body.

The massage stimulates the lymphatic system, relieves muscle spasms, breaks down cellulite, and accelerates fluid drainage from the body. You'll notice reduced swelling, body volume, and improved skin tone. What types of massages reduce body volume and shape the figure?

If you are prone to edema, we recommend undergoing a course of lymphatic drainage massage for the whole body twice a year.

Machine procedures in the cosmetologist's office for cellulite reduction. Which ones should you do and which ones should you avoid?

The most popular procedure is Endospheres Therapy. It involves compression-vibration therapy. During the treatment, the specialist presses on the manipulator, exerting compression. This action drives lymphatic flow while the spheres rotate, working on the muscles. Plus, there's vibration, beneficial for lymphatic circulation. Lymphatic flow in the body is slow, so vibration helps it move faster towards major lymph nodes, located in the abdominal area. That's why a knowledgeable specialist begins the massage with abdominal breathing, pressing on these areas. If you're wondering whether you should do Endospheres Therapy or not, the answer is yes. It's an effective method, but you should know that its main goal is to reduce excess fluid in the body. After a course of Endospheres Therapy, excess water and swelling will decrease, visually improving your body's appearance. However, this result isn't long-lasting. Over time, excess water will accumulate again, and swelling will reappear.

Another important aspect of Endospheres Therapy you should be aware of is the hygiene of the procedure. The machine's manipulator is reusable. For cleanliness and hygiene, it's crucial to sterilize it after each client. Your specialist should wash the attachment and use a disinfectant solution to prevent herpes, mollusks, or other undesirable conditions from spreading to your skin from a previous client. Therefore, don't hesitate to ask the specialist how they cleaned the equipment before your visit. This ensures your health. Do you inquire about hygiene when undergoing such procedures? Write your thoughts in the comments.

Another well-known method for body shaping and cellulite correction is LPG Lymphatic Drainage Massage. LPG is a specialized device. The vacuum from the manipulator suctions your skin and works inside with special rollers. We don't recommend this machine method to many people because it has a high risk of complications. The vacuum puts pressure on blood vessels. People with superficial blood vessels or spider veins should avoid LPG Lymphatic Drainage Massage. There's a risk of increasing visible blood vessels. Instead of beautiful, well-groomed legs, you may end up with blue legs with many visible veins. Another complication is that many people have bruises for a long time afterward. We know individuals who didn't complete the course because they developed bruises on their skin that took a long time to heal and spoiled their skin's appearance.

Some people may benefit from LPG. There are specialists who perform it correctly and professionally. But the fact remains - caution is necessary.

The third hardware procedure for reducing sagging and cellulite is RF skin tightening. It involves applying radiofrequency waves to the tissues. By heating the skin, fat cells decrease, and collagen production is stimulated.

You need this procedure if you have sagging skin on your thighs, buttocks, abdomen, arms, or back. RF skin tightening reduces volume and fat deposits, improves skin firmness and quality. Besides the good results, the second advantage of the procedure is its painlessness. It's comfortable and relaxing; the machine does its job while you relax.

There are two more less obvious methods that can reduce localized fat deposits and tighten tissues. These are smas lifting ultherapy and mesotherapy with lipolytics.

SMAS lifting with the Ulthera device is already the "gold standard" for working with facial skin and rejuvenation. But Ulthera is a versatile technique. It can improve not only the condition of the face, neck, and décolleté but also the thighs, abdomen, and arms.

Ultherapy is an ultrasound treatment that targets three layers of the skin. It forms a framework that tightens the skin, making it elastic, youthful, and attractive. The effect on the SMAS layer is necessary for tissue tightening, on the dermis for stimulating new collagen, and on the fat packets for compacting them. Don't expect miracles; if your thighs are large, they won't become small and slim. However, you will definitely experience tightening and reduced sagging.

Mesotherapy with lipolytics is used to reduce fat deposits. It can be used on the body or even the face. For example, Kybella by Allergan, which can break down fat in the chin area. This is suitable for those with dense skin and moderate amounts of fat in this area.

Lipolytics contain natural enzymes identical to those produced by the human liver to facilitate fat metabolism. If there are insufficient enzymes in the body, metabolism slows down. Lipolytics increase enzyme levels and help correct the situation.

Body injections of lipolytics are recommended for those willing to undergo a course of 8-10 sessions. This method restores metabolism and lipid metabolism, reduces fat deposits and cellulite. After the course, volume decreases, and skin condition improves.

Choose the method that suits you and get rid of your cellulite.

Now, let's move on to the most interesting part; I promised to tell you about reducing cellulite at home.

Ladies, it's no secret that lifestyle comes first. It should be active and healthy. Even if you work in an office and sit a lot, you can add activity. For example, 20 minutes of exercise in the morning, 20 minutes during breaks at work, and an evening walk home.

Next is proper nutrition. Add more fiber, vegetables, protein, and healthy fats to your diet. Reduce carbohydrates, especially fast ones - pastries, sweets, and snacks. And don't forget to drink water. When the body lacks water, it starts to retain and accumulate it. Hello, swelling.

These three changes - activity, nutrition, and water - will already improve the situation and help your body stay healthy, making you look better.

Next, you can add anti-cellulite care, which improves blood circulation with regular use. Or try anti-cellulite wraps. These methods won't give a wow effect, but it's better to do something than nothing. Blood circulation and lymphatic flow will improve.

Be cautious with home devices. Vacuum cups, which you attach to the skin and move quickly, can intensify the visibility of blood vessels. Remember, I mentioned LPG Lymphatic Drainage Massage. Cups also create a vacuum, so please be careful if you have visible veins on your legs.

Dry brushing massage. It's popular among girls now. I know many of you love it, but I approach it with caution. Dry brushing irritates and slightly scratches the skin. It's good for exfoliation and regeneration. But in summer, use them with caution. If you do dry brushing and then go sunbathing on the beach, you may get pigmentation. Do dry brushing if you don't sunbathe. Put away the massage brush if you're going to the beach.

Ladies, I would be grateful if you could write in the comments how often and regularly you use home remedies for your body. Do you do cupping, brushing, wraps, and creams for a course of 10-14 days with the recommended time of 30 minutes, or do you do several days for 10 minutes and then forget and stop doing them? Write, we will read all the answers.

There are two more obvious ways to reduce swelling. They are very simple and accessible to everyone. The first is to elevate your legs at the end of the day. Your legs rest, blood and lymph flow away and move through the body. The second is abdominal vacuum, also called nauli. It will help reduce swelling not only in the legs but also in the face. You will look better.

The most important thing when using all the methods you now know is consistency. There will never be any effect if you do it once or twice. The effect only comes with repetition. If you choose massage or hardware methods for yourself, then take a course. The number of sessions will be recommended by your specialist.

If you have chosen to reduce cellulite on your own at home, then do it for at least 14 consecutive days.

The last thing you should know. If you don't treat cellulite, don't do massages, don't do any procedures, and lead a sedentary lifestyle, then over time, edematous cellulite will turn into fibrotic cellulite.

What is fibrotic cellulite? This is when spikes appear in the tissues, like scars, that pull the skin inward. You've seen this cellulite. These are dimples and wavy skin. It's difficult to work with fibrotic cellulite. Even if you do massage, it won't pass. It will require more complex and prolonged work. So take care of your body and don't ignore the problems that you already see on the surface of your body. This will give you health and, of course, beauty.
