    Default Which cellulite treatment works the best?

    Ugh. So I'm 29, and I know I need to hop on the maintenance train if I'm staying in the business... or just want to be able to look at myself in the mirror. I'm going to go for cellulite treatments and probably some sort of contouring to erase the last bit of babyfat-pooch that just keeps... tormenting me. I know when I worked at The Lodge that girls were tossing around cellulite treatment war stories like glasses of leftover champagne so I figure instead of agonizing over internet articles I would just ask the girls who KNOW which type of cellulite treatment is the best? Thank you
    Yes, I'm real.

    drink a lot of water, green tea, and get massages that stimulate lymphatic flow. you can also visit a plastic surgeon , i believe they have some procedures that can help. cellulite can also be hormonal and genetic. exercise can also help, but cellulite is different than regular fat. http://plasticsurgery.com/understanding-cellulite/ this was a good article on it. i don't feel that wraps or peels or whatever really help all that much, least not in my experience. wish there was a quick, cheap, sure-fire way to get rid of it altogether for sure, but i haven't come across anything

    Drinking lots of water or the fact they say it can be flushed out is myth. It's a connective tissue disease( they say know). I had it a bit in early 20's it went completely away when I started working out heavy and eating clean. If you change your diet and do lots of a.w.t it should help a lot!

    Oh and I had endermologie years ago. Waste of money. Thermage is said to work about 30% and there are new treatemnts. One called cellulaze but on realslelf all the woman who got it said it made it worse. I think it's promising but I'd wait until it's been performed a while and all the bugs in the equipment have been worked out.

    I'm desperate for a cellulite solution. It's getting much much worse and i just don't know how to tackle it. My mother had horrendous celulite and i seem to be following in her footsteps. I'm in good shape, i weigh the same i always have, workout 4 or five times a week and you can see my good muscle tone but you can also see the cellulite on the back of my thighs. I've just started hard scrubbing the affected areas with a loofah every day and from next month i'll be going back to a raw vegan diet to see if that helps. But i really would like a surgical/ cosmetic treatment that actually gets the whole problem properly treated.

    Has anyone tried cryogenic lipolysis?

    I had some relatively good results with the Slim Lipo (it's called a ton of different things). It is a non-invasive technique where they apply electrodes and paddles to the area of concern for a treatment time of 20 mins. It doesn't hurt and you can only feel a little heat. It works by permeating the adipose cells with ultrasonic waves which breaks the membrane temporarily. You then have a window of a few hours where the membranes of the fat cells are compromised, and the stored fats are again freed into the bloodstream. Therefore you MUST work out and expend as much energy as you can during this window to ensure the mobilized fats are used as fuel and not repackaged into adipose cells as storage. I personally saw a decrease in measurement after each treatment which is pretty significant seeing as I don't have much weight to lose (I'm already 5'5" and 120). This combined with lots of water and foam rolling the problem areas will do wonders. Cellulite is a connective tissue issue - it lies superficially and appears more drastic in areas where the skin is thinner. The lumpy appearance can be lessened by also microrolling the skin in that area. If you are not familiar with micro rolling, it uses tiny needles to reshape the skin by inducing collagen production. Using a longer length (for body use try 1.5 mm to 2.5 mm) will penetrate deep enough to stimulate new collagen and break apart crossbridging that makes the lumpy appearance worse. The biggest thing is that your skin will become thicker and more elastic. Think about it like this - if you have a lumpy comforter you're trying to hide it will undoubtedly look better under a thick duvet rather than a thin, flimsy one. Hope this helps!

    Idk what your diet is like but if you eat dairy, cut it off.
    If you eat meats, 100% organic is the way to go. The hormones and antibiotics = cellulite haven.
    Drink lots of water right after coffee and alcohol.
    Avoid tanning beds, if you go. It kills your collagen.

    ^^this plus cut out sugar, processed foods and white stuff, too (bread, pasta, etc.). When I did that and cleaned up my diet and started juicing I saw a difference. Also, doing bikram yoga helped *tremendously* -- it really makes you sweat out the toxins and assists with lymphatic drainage. I sometimes use a good cellulite oil (with lemongrass, ginger, etc.) after taking an epsom salt bath, too.

    Epsom salt baths are suppose to be great. Makes you lose bloat. I saw this on Dr Oz. I love juicing. I look so damn vibrant and full of life when I do it.

    My diet is pretty clean - i have eczema and control it through diet so i have very little dairy, don't do wheat, meat, sugar or processed food. But going back to raw vegan definitely helps especially at this time of year when my other allergies are ramping up.

    I keep seeing groupon offers for slim lipo but have read so many mixed reviews it's hard to know if it's worth it, i've read encouraging things about ultrasound cavitation (the blast the fat cells with ultrasound to explode them) that seems to be a more intense version of the slim lipo.

    I'm looking forward to getting my birthday out of the way this month then getting down to the raw diet. I might gift myself one of the treatments for my birthday.

    Do a combo treatment of liposene, free for the first month then its 29.99, plus use sesna, like 10 bucks i think, it will attack the problem at its core for the best results. one or the other tho, couldnt say. together, its a power house.

    Endermologie + drinking lots of water to flush your system out regularly.

    Here's a few before and after pictures of people that have had it done. Seriously works wonders.

    I used to do the LPG but not sure what they have out now.

    I would say diet. I started dieting weeks ago. On a strict veggie and fish diet and Ive lost 10 lbs. You should try dieting first. Because lipo is wonderful and all, but its only temperary and most of the time people will gain weight. If you change your eating habit lifestyle wise. You will not have to worry about this.

    This is what I do that helps cellulite look better almost immediately. I do it before bed on days before I work and have results by the morning.
    Take ground coffee, moisten it with water, and put it on areas that need treatment. Wrap the area with plastic wrap, and leave it on for as long as you can. (An hour minimum) I wrap up the top of my thighs, put a towel on the couch and watch a movie or something then rinse it off. The next day you can't see ANY cellulite.
    I forget exactly how it works, but it WORKS.
    I also exfoliate my body with coffee grinds three times a week and am 28 and get compliments on my skin every single day I work.
    It's messy, but it's cheap and you see results so quickly!

    I've always heard about using coffee grounds but never exactly how to do it so thanks for the detailed post! The only problem is that I don't drink coffee (i'm very allergic and have eczema and coffee is one of the things i react to so i rarely drink it, if i do it tends to be out in a coffee shop) - I guess i don't have to drink it though, i can just make some and use the grounds.

    This is from my college-level nutrition book:

    Cellulite (definition): "Supposedly, a lumpy form of fat. Actually, a fraud. Fatty areas of the body may appear lumpy when the strands of connective tissue that attach the skin to underlying muscles pull tight where the fat is thick. The fat itself is the same as fat anywhere else in the body. If the fat in these areas is lost, the lumpy appearance disappears."

    It seems like techniques that try to detach the adhered tissue from the underlying layers might be effective in reducing the lumpy appearance of the fat (e.g. skin rolling - a massage technique). The skin on people's glutes and the backs of their thighs definitely tends to be very adhered, so that makes a bit of sense. Just my own personal theory though!
