Annoying skin problem-Cellulite
Date 2024.04.12

What is cellulite?

Fatty hyperplasia of subcutaneous tissue in specific areas compresses the dermal tissue downward through the influence of connective tissue, causing the skin surface to appear as uneven as an orange peel. Additionally, women are more likely to develop cellulite than men.

The main factor causing this phenomenon can be attributed to the different connective tissue structure: in the male body, it is arranged in a cross and the divisions are denser, making it difficult for excess fat to protrude. In women, the connective tissue is arranged in a vertical pattern and is loosely distributed. In addition, in order to maintain production functions, the amount of fat in women's buttocks is naturally higher.

Orange peel often occurs on the following body parts:

  • Thigh
  • abdomen
  • Chest
  • Side and back of buttocks

The following factors can cause cellulite:

  • Pregnant
  • Gene
  • Hormones
  • Poisonous speed accumulation
  • Uneven diet
  • Weight gain
  • Poor eating habits

How to alleviate cellulite?

Use body cream: Moisturizes the skin, makes the skin surface smoother and more delicate, and helps to correct cellulite problems. Combined with massage techniques, the repair effect can be amplified.

Recommended active ingredients

  • Caffeine: It can increase local blood flow, change the water content in fat, and make orange peel less obvious.
  • Retinol: Effectively increases the thickness of the skin surface and slows down the condition of orange peel. (Should pay attention to the irritation caused by retinol, such as dryness, redness, swelling and photosensitivity)

Studies have shown that dietary improvements combined with topical skin products can more effectively improve cellulite.

Diet and lifestyle recommendations:

  • Reduce intake of sugary foods
  • Increase fiber intake
  • Drink more water to speed up toxin metabolism. It is recommended to consume at least 9 glasses of water a day.
  • Avoid smoking and drinking to avoid accumulation of toxins in the body

 

If you have problems related to cellulite, it is recommended to consult a doctor first and help the patient find the best method taking into account the cost and side effects.
