For a cellulite cream to work, you have to use it daily (sounds obvious, right?)

For a cellulite cream to work, you have to use it daily (sounds obvious, right?)

Indeed most cellulite creams do not work. Most cellulite creams are diluted junk, with little or no active anti-cellulite ingredients in them and are designed, manufactured and marketed for one reason: maximum profit. So even if you apply them religiously they do not have a chance in hell to work. Most people do not change their habits that initially led to the creation of cellulite and expect the cellulite cream to do all the work. Again, under these circumstances, even if you apply your cream religiously it will not work. And many people only use their cellulite cream from time to time. No skincare product, cellulite cream or not, will ever work if you don’t apply it…

Should I combine weight loss with a cellulite treatment or is this not necessary?

Should I combine weight loss with a cellulite treatment or is this not necessary?

Many people think that they have to “lose all the weight first” and only then start a cellulite treatment, because this way they are ready to start treatment. However, this could not be further from the truth. The best thing is to lose any weight you may want to lose during your course of treatments - not before or after.

Hydrogenated oils, trans fatty acids, cellulite, skin ageing and skin looseness

Hydrogenated oils, trans fatty acids, cellulite, skin ageing and skin looseness

Hydrogenated fats/oils comprise one of the worst food groups you can put in your mouth. Also known as trans fatty acids or simply trans fats, hydrogenated oils are man-made fats that accumulate in cell and mitochondrial membranes in the entire body, displacing normal lipids…

Booking a cellulite treatment last minute just before holidays: does it make sense?

Booking a cellulite treatment last minute just before holidays: does it make sense?

If your cellulite treatment is a clay body wrap, lymphatic massage, mechanical massage with vacuum suction or anything similarly short-lasting, yes. Have the last session just 1-2 days before your holidays and hopefully that will last you up to one week into your holidays. However, if you are having a real cellulite / skin tightening treatment that aims for long-term results, such as deep-acting, high-power radiofrequency or high-power ultrasound cavitation, the best thing to do is finish your sessions about a month before your holidays or thereabouts…

Have a bum lift treatment the natural way: with radiofrequency, ultrasound, Emsculpt and red/infrared light therapy

Have a bum lift treatment the natural way: with radiofrequency, ultrasound, Emsculpt and red/infrared light therapy

Unfortunately many people are lured to undergo dangerous and highly invasive BBL surgery or unsafe hyaluronic acid / poly-L-lactic acid fillers in order to lift and shape their derrière. As a result many women do not even try, and quite rightly so, as they are afraid of the risks of adverse reactions inherent with such treatments. However, in addition to the one-session risky options above there is the safe, natural and effective way, which is based on stimulating collagen production and collagen contraction (with deep-acting, high-power radiofrequency) and muscle building, lifting and toning (with Emsculpt’s HIFEM technology), over a course of several safe sessions, as opposed to the - supposedly instant - gimmicky options of surgery or injections. And this is what we offer with our LipoTherapeia® Plus non-surgical bum lift treatment…

Sleep, cortisol, skin aging and cellulite

Sleep, cortisol, skin aging and cellulite

Lack of sleep itself is an indirect cause of cellulite and a direct cause of skin aging. Lack of sleep is not as important as sugar intake, calorie intake, lack of exercise, smoking/vaping, alcohol intake etc, but because it indirectly leads us to the above behaviours, it does play a role. Lack of sleep makes us feel more tired and consequently leads to increased food intake, especially sugar-containing food, smoking/vaping, alcohol intake and stimulant intake…

Stimulative vs destructive treatments for skin tightening: safety and effectiveness

Stimulative vs destructive treatments for skin tightening: safety and effectiveness

Exercise and general movement do lead to tighter skin and, as mentioned above, they are absolutely essential to maintain tight skin. However, exercise and healthy nutrition act very slowly in reversing skin laxity and can only go so far in tightening skin in specific areas or throughout the body. So, indeed you can tighten your skin with exercise but usually not enough and not fast enough. Hence the need for a good, strong skin tightening treatment, for faster, more pronounced results than from just exercise…

Does infrared light therapy tighten skin?

Does infrared light therapy tighten skin?

Infrared light penetrates more than red light and can better reach the dermis where fibroblasts (collagen and elastin producing cells) and collagen structures are found. High-power LED phototherapy in the near infrared wavelength boosts mitochondrial function via the stimulation of cytochrome C oxidase enzyme. Improved mitochondrial function means better fibroblast function and increased collagen and elastin synthesis, meaning firmer skin. No other procedure is known to have this effect on mitochondrial function - only red light at around 630nm and infrared light at around 830nm. However, this effect is subtle and appears gradually and slowly, so infrared…

Water retention and oedematous cellulite in the heat of the summer

Water retention and oedematous cellulite in the heat of the summer

The single more important reason for cellulite looking worse in the summer is water retention. Water retention, one of the seven aspects of cellulite, can become worse in the heat of the summer due to vasodilation. In turn, water retention makes the cellulite “bumps” to become enlarged and thighs and buttocks, in general, to become puffy. Water retention can also lead to increased low grade inflammation, another one of the seven aspects of cellulite (the other five being fat accumulation, skin laxity, fibrosis, oxidative damage and glycation)….
