I’ll tell you something – I just went on a lovely beach holiday (think coconut palms and crystal clear water) and when I got home and saw the pictures of us girls playing around on the beach, I did a short, sharp intake of breath. We’re a pretty bunch who look after ourselves and truly come in all shapes and sizes and colours. But, woah, is that what turning five billion years old last year made us look like? I mean, I am pretty sure I did NOT invite a sack of oranges to come on vacation with me. But, yes, there was that little glimmer of shadow on my thighs underneath the blazing sun.
Ladies, this is when you need to take a moment (so that you don’t have an emotional breakdown within the first two weeks of the year) to remind yourself that you are beautiful and that everyone has a bit of cellulite. Yes, even your super skinny friend who drinks gallons of water and does nine spinning classes a week. So stop fretting. It’s a natural thing that the fairer sex has to deal with, but the good news is that it can be managed.
First of all, look after your body: drink water, eat healthy, fresh foods, and avoid smoking, alcohol and sodium rich diets. That won’t only help with cellulite – you’ll feel better about yourself all round. Secondly, go for a few treatments. Quite literally, treat yourself. The Body Renewal Clinic will sort you out in no time. They have a great holistic approach to dealing with cellulite, and will always tailor-make your package to suit your needs, budget and time frame.
There are a few different options you can go with, all with visible results.
Carboxytherapy injects medical grade Co2 into affected areas, which improves lymphatic drainage and circulation – this leads to improved texture and appearance of cellulite.
Radiofrequency procedures – such as Titania, Exilis, Accent, Tripollar, Velashape – causes an immediate tightening of skin, fat reduction and increase circulation, which reduces toxins and improves the appearance of cellulite.
Lipomassage™ by Endermologie stimulates the deep tissue which breaks down fat cells, untethers the fibrous bands that cause cellulite and improves lymphatic drainage.
Transdermal mesotherapy uses no needle technology to deliver active ingredients into the mesoderm to improve circulation and help remove the toxins that cause cellulite.
Lipodissolve injects a mesotherapy to improve the appearance of cellulite and to contour the body.
If you’re terrified of needles (like me) then you have some great choices, and if you don’t mind (no pain, no gain, eh?) then you’re also sorted.
Here’s something interesting – because of the type of underwear us ladies wear these days, there has been an increased amount of cellulite in the past 50 years (the elastic going across our bums reduces blood flow). How to help? Sleep naked! Now that’s advice I shall listen to.
