How to improve the appearance of cellulite?
Many people, especially women, are looking for ways to eliminate or reduce cellulite in areas such as the thighs, hips, abdomen, and buttocks.
What is orange peel skin?
This is when our skin shows a rough, uneven appearance with dimples and surface nodules. Essentially, we’re talking about a cosmetic issue that can be understood as the visible manifestation of cellulite, which is caused by the accumulation of adipose or fatty tissue. Sometimes it’s only visible when you pinch the skin, but there are more severe cases where the orange peel texture is visible even when the person is lying down. We’ve even seen paparazzi photos of big stars like Jennifer Lopez, Scarlett Johansson, and Ashley Graham, making it clear that no one is immune to cellulite, regardless of their weight or body type.
What are the causes of cellulite?
Cellulite is multifactorial, and its exact cause is still unknown. This condition can be caused by:
- Inflammation of the subcutaneous tissue
- An increase in fat at a local level
- A vascular disorder
- Genetic factors (family and ethnic inheritance, since it is more frequent in white-skinned people)
- An unbalanced, high-calorie diet, rich in sugars and fats, with excess salt and low in fiber.
- Hormonal/endocrine causes (such as hypothyroidism).
- It is even possible that cellulite is encouraged by a sedentary and very stressful lifestyle.
Given the risk of developing cellulite, there are some habits we can adopt that will also improve our quality of life, such as:
- Engage in regular physical activity or exercise
- Stay well hydrated
- Eliminate ultra-processed foods and increase your consumption of fruits and vegetables
- Seek professional advice for managing hormonal problems
- Avoid stress and get enough rest
