The Fight Against Cellulite


With Summer right around the corner, many women are scrambling to look their best in their swimsuits this season.  For 90% of those women, a panic attack may be in order because of something you may or may not be familiar with….CELLULITE!

Unfortunately, no one is immune – not even beauties such as Uma Thurman, Kim Cattrall or Kim Kardashian. While men can have cellulite too, women are much more likely to become victims simply due to the distribution of fat, muscle and connective tissue in the skin.

Although the cause of cellulite cannot be pinpointed to any one factor, most attribute it to a combination of things, such as:  genetics, diet, hormones, skin elasticity and lifestyle.

Unfortunately, a permanent cure for cellulite is still to be found, however, there are a few different ways we can  camouflage it:

·       Use a self tanner to even out skin tone and blend in the tiny imperfections. Check out this post on our very own recommendations for the best self-tanners.  (insert link to last year’s blog)

·       Endermologie, a machine assisted deep tissue lipomassage, helps reduce the appearance of cellulite. Sessions should be done at least 1-2 times per week for a total of 10-14 treatments to see optimal results. We have many patients here at Aesthetic Enhancements that have been extremely pleased with their results. Call today to set up an appointment to speak to Amanda, our paramedical aesthetician about how endermologie can help you treat your areas of concern!

·       A confident attitude! Everything looks better when you hold your head high with a big smile on your face.

Lipomassage by Endermologie



Helping Us Fight Cellulite!

Attention Ladies!  Are you ready to show off your favorite bikini without having to cover it up?  Live a little this summer!  Uncover yourself and shed your sarong!  Everyone knows having cellulite can make you feel self-conscious and embarrassed, but what you may not have known is that 90% of women have this same summer setback.  So you are not alone, not even close.  And you aren’t out of luck either.  Endermologie can help!

Though eating right and exercising regularly is very beneficial to your body and health, it may not always do the trick for your stubborn cellulite.  Cellulite is caused by fatty pockets that poke out between connective tissues beneath the skin, making there mark where everyone can see.  Lipomassage by Endermologie helps smooth out these annoying lumps and bumps by stimulating the reaction of fat release and the production of collagen and elastin.  This improves your skin’s health and elasticity.  It’s important to know that cellulite creams scientifically do not work because they will not penetrate the skin deep enough to have any effect on the fat, so don’t waste your money lathering up! Endermologie is the only FDA approved treatment proven to work.

Even better, Lipomassage by Endermologie is painless and noninvasive!  Lipomassage is a mechanical roller used in combination with gentle suction, so it feels more like a massage than anything else.  With a series of at least 10-14 simple treatments, this procedure can slim fat cells, smooth cellulite, firm the skin and sculpt your figure.  Like other procedures, routine treatments are required to maintain the desired smoothness. 

If you’d like to learn more about Lipomassage by Endermologie and how it can help you fight cellulite, call our Orlando, Florida Plastic Surgery, Skin Care and Hair Restoration Center today to set up a free consultation - 407.218.4550!  And remember, you don’t have to cover up this summer!

How to Reduce the Appearance of Cellulite

Cellulite is a very common problem among women and men. As a matter of fact, it is estimated that 90% of post-adolescent women experience some form of cellulite. And don’t think that men are immune.  Men are prone to the embarrassing orange peel effect as well, especially when they carry excess fat. So what do we do about it? It’s summer time in central Florida and bathing suits and shorts are as likely an occurrence as traffic jams on I-4.  None of us want to go through the summer feeling self-conscious about our thighs or behinds.  So what is the solution?  How can we have our proverbial cake and eat it too? Here are a few tricks minus the gimmicks…..

    1.  Diet.  Studies show that one of the causes of cellulite is a lack of proper blood flow throughout the many layers of our skin. Altering your diet can create an optimum environment for healthy blood flow and thus help reduce the appearance of cellulite. Focus on decreasing your carbohydrate, fat and salt intake while increasing the amount of fiber and water in your diet.

     2.  Lifestyle. How many times have you heard that stress isn’t good for you? 1000? Make that 1001. Stress has been shown to increase hormones in the body that can make cellulite a more likely occurrence. So take it easy. Give yourself permission to get a massage or take a day off every once in a while. Better yet, hop in a Yoga class at your gym once a week. Yoga can help you relax and regain mental focus while simultaneously increasing blood flow and flexibility.  Your body will thank you.

     3.  Exercise. Yup, you knew it was coming. Exercise is a must when it comes to cellulite reduction (among other things). Sometimes losing those few extra pounds can help reduce the appearance of cellulite by firming muscles, which in turn increases skin turgor. So focus on your strength training routine to increase lean mass in your body and add walking and biking to your routine to increase blood flow. Stay with it and don’t get discouraged. Like everything else worthwhile in life, the effort is well worth the reward.

      Of course, the greatest cause of cellulite is simply bad luck and genetics.... and for these there is no cure- but timely and regular Endermologie treatments do help to effectively camouflage the appearance of the cellulite- explaining the popularity of these treatments among the jet set.
