You buy an anti-cellulite cream, apply it for a month, nothing. You start running, your legs get firmer, but the “dimples” on your thighs are still there. If this sounds familiar, you haven't done anything wrong. Cellulite simply isn't solved the way it has been sold to us for years.
What is cellulite, really?
Cellulite isn't “excess fat” but a structural problem: fat cells push towards the surface through a network of connective tissue, which in women runs vertically, so the pressure shows as dimples. That's why slim women get cellulite too, while men almost never do, because their connective tissue runs criss-cross.
Why does cellulite keep coming back?
- Hormones: oestrogen promotes fat storage on the thighs and weakens connective tissue
- Circulation: a day spent sitting and tight jeans slow the flow of blood and lymph in the legs
- Age: the skin gets thinner, so the dimples show more
- Genetics: the layout of fat and connective tissue is inherited
A cream can't change any of this, which is why it doesn't work. Dieting shrinks fat cells but doesn't repair the tissue structure or the skin, so cellulite stays even on slim legs.
What really works on cellulite?
What works is whatever targets the structure: better circulation, firmer connective tissue and thicker skin. INDIBA radiofrequency does exactly that: it warms the tissue under the skin, boosts blood and lymph flow, stimulates fat cell metabolism and collagen renewal in the skin. Over a series of treatments the skin on the thighs gets smoother and firmer and the dimples shallower. To see what experts say, read the article can INDIBA reduce cellulite.
Realistic expectations and maintenance
Celulit se može značajno ublažiti, ali sklonost celulitu ostaje, pa rezultat treba održavati: povremeni tretmani, kretanje, hidratacija. Za bedra i stražnjicu obično preporučujemo 10 do 15 tretmana, a plan radimo prema stanju na konzultacijama, koje su besplatne, u Zagrebu, Splitu i Zadru.
