Cellulite familiar to most women. But what is cellulite? Why is he there? And how to make so that it was not?
What you should know about cellulite
In healthy fatty tissues beneath the skin, it gives the skin a smooth attractive appearance. Cellulite - is visible loose body fat, which are seen on the skin of the thighs, buttocks, legs, arms, stomach. The fat cells swell and stretch the connection between them, forming a visible skin bumps and hollows. Cellulite formation may eventually be pronounced, roughly, and even begin to hurt.
Cellulite - is the problem of obesity is not as such, so that it can not be fought as ordinary fat. To combat cellulite will not only diet but also revise its way of life.
Cellulite - is a dynamic phenomenon, which goes through several stages of embryonic development, soft and implicit to highly significant and painful. So the sooner started the fight the appearance of cellulite, the better.
Fat - is not the only culprit of ugly cellulite deposits. In fact, healthy fat - this is good and beautiful. For example, the fat tissue on the face gives the cheeks a gentle smoothness and youthful appearance. Plastic surgeons make a lot of money each year, making fat injections to their patients in different areas of the face and body, to give foreign youth. Incidentally, fat injections - one of the means of visual alignment cellulite.
Although it seems that cellulite - a mandatory satellite overweight, actually - is not. Even thin women can cellulite. And the thing is that even though cellulite and fatty deposits formed, overweight - this is not the main reason for the formation of cellulite. Much more dangerous in this regard, the sharp fluctuations of weight. Stretched skin does not have time to shrink with weight loss and greatly expands with increasing body weight. These stretch-contracting lead to the loss of elasticity of the skin, caused by more than noticeable cellulite.
How does cellulite
Under human skin is a layer of connective tissue that attaches the skin to the muscles. The structure of the upper layers of the skin and a bottom layer of connective tissue responsible for the appearance of the skin, it is this structure gives the skin a smooth or a rough surface "orange peel".
In men, connective tissue fibers are arranged crosswise or diagonally, which forms a dense and smooth structure.
In women, the connective tissue fibers are arranged vertically (perpendicular to the skin). Because of these fibers to attach the skin to deeper layers at certain points, and the grid is formed fat called cellulite. Fat presses on the skin from the inside, and the fibers of the connective tissue is attracted towards the skin of this body fat by simply "dragging" the fat skin, like a grid.
The difference in the structure of the connective tissue (and in addition to the fact that the skin is usually thicker in men than women) explains why men are usually not subject to the scourge of cellulite.
First, the bad news
At the beginning of the life of a human connective tissue fibers elastic, which gives youthful skin its healthy appearance. But as a teenager, due to the strong hormonal changes, the fibers become less elastic. At the same time, fat cells increase in size, pressing on the skin from the inside.
Since the connective tissue fibers become stronger with age, they become harder to pull the skin to the muscles. At the same time, increases in volume fat continue to put pressure on surrounding tissues. It is not hard to guess that the combination of these aspects and gives irregularities of cellulite.
As soon as a man gets older, his skin becomes thinner and loses its elasticity, sagging, making cellulite more prominent.
Another negative point that tends to accumulate, and lead to a deterioration of cellulite can be a constant weight fluctuations. Raising and lowering the weight to provoke a loss of elasticity of the skin, while also making the cellulite more prominent.
Good news
You can improve (but not eliminate) the external appearance of cellulite. To do this, start keeping a correct way of life. This means drinking plenty of fluids, not smoking, exercise and diet.
The combination of diet and exercise program aimed at combating cellulite in the subcutaneous fat deposits that will make them less noticeable. A healthy diet will also help to restore the communication structure of the fibers of the connective tissue and skin. In addition, the correct diet will provide the necessary vitamins and trace elements, warn dehydration, which exacerbates the appearance of cellulite.
The exercises will be in the fight against cellulite full support, not only to reduce body fat, but will strengthen the blood circulation and tones the muscles in problem areas. Increased blood circulation and healthier skin and connective tissue fibers, helps eliminate toxins and unnecessary liquids from problem areas.
Bitter truth
There is a likelihood that, despite the world's best diet and exercise program, cellulite will not disappear. The presence, location and condition of cellulite is determined by heredity and hormone levels.
While there are ways to deal with the external appearance of cellulite, really can improve the appearance of the problem area, the method of treatment for cellulite does not exist. In fact, advertising tools, offering complete freedom from cellulite does not carry anything except the idea of making money by selling the placebo
