Wear Your Summer Wardrobe With Confidence: 2 Treatments That Effectively Reduce Cellulite Fat

The sun is out and we are delving into the backs of our wardrobes to locate our short shorts and crop tops. Warmer weather and positive outlooks go hand in hand, yet there is one issue quietly niggling away at the back of our minds, Cellulite Fat! 

If, like the majority of us, you don’t possess the perfectly bronzed curvature of a Greek goddess, nor the smooth, even skin of their airbrushed modern equivalents, you may have some trepidation about how much skin your summer wardrobe reveals. Cellulite is estimated to affect 10% of men and a whopping 90% of women, regardless of how regularly you exercise or how slender your frame.

This dimpled, ‘orange peel’ effect commonly affects the thighs, buttocks, lower abdomen and upper arms. It is completely harmless, however, many seek to weaken its appearance for cosmetic reasons. North West Aesthetics offers two treatments that effectively reduce fat and cellulite, giving you maximum confidence in your skin this summer. 

 

Dermaroller 

Fibrous connective tissue anchors the skin to the underlying muscle. When fat cells push against the dermis layer of the skin, in between the fibrous bands, cellulite occurs. 

Dermarolling, also known as Microneedling, uses ultra-fine needles to penetrate the skin, creating micro-injuries. This triggers the body’s natural healing response which stimulates the production of collagen and elastin. As new cells form, skin becomes plumper and thicker, resulting in a more even skin texture. The thickening of the dermis makes it harder for fat globules to protrude into the dermis.

 

Aqualyx 

Aqualyx injections are a safe and effective way to dissolve the pockets of fat that are challenging to eliminate through exercise and diet alone. Made from the deoxycholate family of acids, the solution breaks down fat cell membranes. The body naturally disposes of the stubborn fatty deposits harboured by the stomach, thighs, buttocks and upper arms, leading to permanent fat loss.

Once Aqualyx injections take effect, the connective tissues surrounding fat globules are reconstructed. This results in a noticeable improvement to the lumpy feel of cellulite, leaving behind a smooth, even skin texture. 

 

How To Maintain Results

Although there is no way to completely prevent the development of cellulite, there are methods of minimising its appearance. Cellulite forms in areas of the body with the least circulation. Introducing exercise such as running, swimming or brisk walking into your daily routine will increase blood circulation and loosen the fat tissues in those hard-to-shift areas. 

Fat reduction treatments are not a permanent solution for losing weight. Making a conscious effort to regularly exercise and eat healthily is vital in maintaining the slimmer contours that Aqualyx injections help create. 

If you find managing your weight challenging, don’t fall foul of fad diets or extreme exercise regimes. Making small changes such as walking instead of driving to the shops, or cutting out sugary treats in the evening are easy to sustain and quickly become habitual.
