Cellulite Treatments

Many women are affected by cellulite and have tried various methods to get rid of it: from exercising and eating right to applying scrubs and creams. Most of these just do not give you the results you want. Cellulite is a condition due to a combination of tightened connective tissue in the skin and excess fatty tissue. When the tissues weaken or become more rigid it pulls down on the surface of the skin creating dimples, or cottage cheese thighs. It’s time to get rid of these unsightly dimples by trying to get more visible and lasting results with cellulite treatments in New York.

About 90% of women struggle with cellulite whether they are plus size women or extremely skinny women, and unfortunately there is no permanent cure. One myth about cellulite is that only women get it. This is untrue. Although, a larger percentage of women do get cellulite it is a condition that affects men as well. This has to do with the different ways women and men organize their fat. Women organize their fat in a perpendicular fashion which causes the fat to pull down on the skin creating uneven and sometimes bumpy layers while men store their fat parallel to their skin. Cellulite treatments New York can help diminish the visible affects of this condition in both men and women.

Another myth is that liposuction can get rid of cellulite. Liposuction is a surgery that removes fat from the body but can sometimes make cellulite worse than it was to begin with. When getting liposuction the fat from the deeper layers of skin is removed, not the cellulite fat. Cellulite fat is located directly underneath the top layer of skin, so when a person receives liposuctions it can make this superficial layer of skin even more visible.

Lastly, some people believe that exercising, dieting, or drinking lots of water can reduce cellulite, but this is completely false. No amount of exercise can remove cellulite because it is caused by hormonal and genetic factors. Even the fittest athletes sometimes have cellulite. Also, there are no specific foods you can eat to help rid yourself of the cottage cheese look. Drinking a lot of water is an extremely healthy habit, but this does not eradicate cellulite either. It can sometimes even make the appearance of cellulite worse because excess water enhances the appearance of cellulite.
