The new cellulite treatments were first developed in France and are often referred to as liponic sculpting. These non-invasive and non-surgical techniques involve the use of a high-tech machine that moves over the skin producing a rolling and sucking motion that gradually results in a change in skin texture and appearance where the treatment is applied. The results can be a much smoother and slimmer appearance especially when the treatments are combined with a healthy diet and exercise.

The newest forms of liponic sculpting are called Endermologie and Silhouette. These treatments utilize a high-tech device, a computer program and an experienced technician to perform the therapy. Researchers have found that one to two sessions per week offers the best results. Patients undergoing these refreshing treatments often describe the feeling as being like a deep and relaxing massage. Most people see results after 5 or 6 sessions, but the full course of treatments (13-15 treatments) is required to achieve the best results. The results will vary depending on the age, lifestyle and hormonal status of the individual. Many of our clients are reporting losses of inches from their figures after only 3-4 treatments. For most clients, the results will last for 6 to 18 months. Once a month maintenance treatments are recommended after completion of the sessions. Endermologie or Silhouette treatments can also speed up and improve healing after liposuction. We offer several sessions of liponic sculpting to our liposuction patients as a benefit with their surgery. It is highly recommended that diet and exercise be modified in a way to promote a healthier lifestyle as well. Men have also benefited in such problem areas as love handles and loose chest (pectoral) areas. The sessions are performed while the clients wear special pantyhose in most cases. This allows the apparatus to smoothly glide over the body and ensures optimal hygiene. Unlike liposuction, liponic sculpting does not involve breaking through the skin in any way.

Nutrition plays a big part in most diets, but more so in dieting to reduce cellulite. All processed foods must be banned from your intake.

You need to try and eat foods in there natural state, i.e: fruit and veg, a baked potato is a great example of this.

If you eat meat (life myself) then it advises that you buy the leanest cuts you can. Go for quality not quantity.

Eggs are good too, but with other dairy products (milk, yogurt) buy either low fat or fat free products.

100% Whole wheat should be used when having breads and pasta’s, anything else is just a waste of calories.

i took the above from a good article about getting rid of cellulite naturally, the blog is http://easydietoptions.wordpress.com/2008/03/04/reducecellulite/

I know, some people have no clue. Cellulite is actually mainly an issue with loss of elasticity in the connective tissues. It can affect women of any age and any size, in fact most women suffer with cellulite. Obviously the less fat you have, the better it will look, but when you are as slim as you are, there is no point trying to become thinner!

If you are interested, there are some cosmetic treatments that may help. One is known as endermologist, which is lymphatic drainage and the other is mesotherapy, where small amount of a solution are injected into the problem areas and this can improve the look of the cellulite.

The only other suggestions I have are keeping your diet healthy, ie free from foods that cause toxins to build up such as processed foods high in salt and coffee especially. Drink at least 4-8 glass of water per day. Try having cold showers in the morning and dry body brushing to improve circulation. Get plenty of exercise to tone the problem areas and maybe get your hormones checked, as high oestrogen levels can cause cellulite to worsen, which can also happen whilst on the birth control pill if it has a high oestrogen content.

Cellulite is basically a build up of your fat cells in certain areas. So you need to tone up your legs really well to get rid of them. Lunges and squats are a great way to tone the legs! Plus, cardio is great in helping make the fat cells smaller, so make sure you're doing something aerobic, like running or biking. Be sure you do this for about an hour a day (they used to say 30 minutes, but with our society being as it is today, with people walking less and becoming generally less active, researches and specialists are recommending between 60-90 minutes of activity a day).A proper diet is essential as well. If you eat nothing but burgers and fries, then the fat from that will definitely show up on your thighs as well! Eat plenty of fruits and veggies, and drink cranberry juice! Make sure it's pure cranberry juice, not the sugar kind you find at the grocery store. You can usually find cranberry juice at your local health food store. Cranberry juice is not only great for your digestive system, but the anti-oxidents in cranberries helps diminish larger fat cells. Plus, while you're at your health food store, get a body brush with natural bristles. Brush yourself every morning before you get into the shower, concentrating on the areas with the cellulite. Body brushing will not only soften the skin, but it'll circulate your blood and help the cellulite become less noticable. Do these things once a day and you should find a difference between 2 weeks to a month. Good luck!

"Cellulite Solutions

Cellulite is a nuisance for thin and overweight women alike and can be somewhat more difficult to tackle than losing weight. Although some believe that it is a special type of fat, "cellulite is simply normal fat that looks bumpy because it's pushing through the connective tissues that usually keeps it distributed evenly beneath your skin", says WebMD writer Michel Bloomquist. Genetics, age, pregnancy and hormone levels are among the causes that you have no control over. Some people are born with weaker tissue structures that collect fat deposits more easily. Others experience a weakening of tissue structures as they age. And some women produce high levels of estrogen (especially during pregnancy) that tend to break apart collagen tissue fibers allowing for fat to deposit in the form of cellulite.

The good news is that there are plenty of other factors that cause cellulite which you can control. Your body fat level is probably the most important one; the less fat that you have on your body the less fat there is to push through those connective tissues. So even if you are genetically predisposed to cellulite lowering your body fat will keep it to a minimum. Two other factors to consider are poor circulation and bad food choices, which tend to go hand in hand. Poor circulation damages tissue which results in blocked air and trapped toxins from too much processed foods or food allergies. The more you exercise and the better food choices you make the less chance you have of toxins contributing to your cellulite. One last thing to consider is sun exposure that ages your skin and contributes to the breakdown of collagen tissue.

There are numerous treatments for cellulite on the market including herbal treatments, creams, gels, exfoliants, endermology, body wraps, hormone or enzyme injections, and even electrical muscle stimulation but the rate of success is low and there aren’t any studies or research that prove any of this stuff really works. These treatments are also very pricey. But don’t despair, there are more effective ways to reduce cellulite.

Build Fat Burning Muscle
Building muscle changes your body composition and burns off fat stores faster than cardio or dieting alone. For every pound of muscle you burn an extra 50 calories a day even while you sleep. If you were to put on 5lb of muscle you could be burning an extra 250 calories a day even while you sit. This is a lot more than an hour of cardio, which only keeps your metabolism elevated for several hours. Building muscle also increases circulation and elasticity, which tightens your muscles and skin tissue from within. It’s still important to do cardio but your focus should be on strength training, especially the lower body. The best lower body cellulite busters include walking lunges with dumbbell, seated leg curls, leg press, and plie squats with a dumbbell.

Stay Away From Fat Free
Obviously a healthy diet is the best way to reduce body fat but fat free products are some of the worst foods for fat loss. These foods are highly processed and very unsatisfying so you tend to eat more of them and since they are loaded with sugar, trans fatty acids, and high in calories excess calories quickly get stored as fat. Another major problem with fat free foods is that the labeling is somewhat deceptive. "The FDA label laws state that if a food has less than one-half gram of fat in a serving, that food can be labeled fat-free. The FDA however, is a bit lax when it comes to regulating serving sizes. By using a serving size of .02-.04 grams a food manufacturer can actually label pure fat as fat free" explains fitness expert Phil Kaplan. If you are craving something have a small portion of the full fat portion and then get back on track with your healthy eating.

Good Fats Promote Fat Loss
This is right on track with the recommendation above. People have been brainwashed to believe that all fat is bad when in reality omega 3 and omega 6 fats found in olive oil, avocados, almonds, walnuts, and flaxseed oil, boost metabolism and unlock stored body fat. "Glucagon is a key hormone that enables your body to burn it’s stores of body fat. A diet rich in omega fats helps balance your insulin levels so that glucagon can be released to unlock your body’s fat storage banks and begin converting unwanted body fat into energy" writes weightloss expert Jorge Cruise. The fats that you should avoid include those found in margarine, fried foods, refined vegetable oils, full fat animal products, and processed foods that contain the words partially hydrogenated on the ingredients list.

Boost Fiber Intake
According to Dr. Scott Conelly, author of Body Rx, and one of the hottest looking 50 year old doctors around, "When fiber is digested, it is fermented in the gut and converted iinto short-chain fatty acids, which can be burned for fuel. The burning of fatty acids from fiber sends a signal to your fat cells telling them to release fat, which your body uses for fuel. The fiber in food also creates a sensation of feeling full, so you feel more satisfied after eating it". Starting your morning with a good breakfast cereal like kashi good friends (8 grams of fiber) and half a cup of berries (4 grams of fiber) almost gets you half way to the recommended 25-30 grams of fiber a day. Keep in mind that most Americans only get around 5 grams a day so starting out your day with a high fiber meal increases your chances of getting to the recommended amount.

Think twice about spending your money on cellulite products that are not guaranteed to work and remember that a healthy diet and strength training is your ticket to fat loss and a cellulite free body."

Apparently body brushing is amazing. Before every shower or bath, from the feet up with long strokes. It wakes you up and helps eliminate toxins. Dont eat to much processed food, drink lots of water and exercise. I also love the Nivea Q10 body lotion. It makes you really soft and firms up your skin.

Hi,

There is no one cream or one diet or one exercise, that would work against cellulite. You have to combine healthy lifestyle, massage, treatments and exercise.

The fastest way to reduce cellulite is having at least a couple of body wrapping procedures. You will see the results after the first time, but a course of 3 or 4 procedures will work best. Also try to scrub and dry brush your problem areas every day. Take a contrast shower. Use some lotions or body oils, they do not have to be very expensive to work.

If you can do everything I mentioned above, for at least 2 weeks, you will definitely see good results! And do not stop working on it when it seems to disappear! I know because I work on it every day also

Cellulite is caused by aging and a lack of proper nutrients. To explain further cell cross linking (aging) causes cellulite in women because they have a different skin structure than men (designed to store more fat) but when the skin ages the tension on the skin becomes uneven causing the ripples of cellulite. There is a antioxidant called Grape Seed Extract that can, taken over time repair the damage to the tissue, usually 2mg per pound of body weight until you see results. Drinking plenty of water and good diet will speed the process but I suspect you are already doing this. There is a patented version of GSE that I prefer but that would be solicitation and to many people here frown on that. Good luck in your fight.
