Cellulite Removal Treatments and How to Avoid Cellulite

Cellulite commonly occurs on the thighs and hips. It is formed when toxins are not eliminated and waste products start building up, fat cells grow and form hard pockets of fat, creating dimples in the skin sometimes referred to as "orange peel" or "cottage cheese skin". You may be genetically more prone to cellulite, or lifestyle factors such as hormones, stress, poor diet, lack of exercise and drugs can affect how much cellulite you have. Prevention is of course best by following a healthy diet and taking regular exercise.

Cellulite removal treatments include liposuction surgery, where an incision is made in the skin, a tube is inserted and the fat cells are sucked out. Another option is Smart Lipo, which is a laser treatment to remove fat from areas of the face and body. The SmartLipo laser breaks down fat cells, which are then absorbed naturally by the body and eliminated over the weeks following treatment.

Other non-surgical treatments include Lipomassage which is body massage using an Endermologie machine. This works to break down the fat cells, smooth the skin and improve body contours. You could also consider cellulite treatment creams which contain ingredients such as green tea, algae, Bladderwrack seaweed, Retinol or Vitamin A. These ingredients can aid weight loss, help to rid the body of toxins, help to break down fat and smooth the skin. Creams cannot cure cellulite, but they can improve the appearance of the skin by smoothing out the bumps.

Follow these tips to reduce and prevent cellulite:

" Drink at least 6 glasses of water a day to help flush toxins out of the body
" Drink fruit juice at breakfast
" Eat fruit with breakfast or as a morning snack
" Avoid alcohol, caffeine and fizzy drinks
" Limit your intake of red meat and salt
" Avoid fried, fatty food and full fat dairy foods
" Eat meals made with fresh ingredients rather than processed foods containing salt, sweeteners and other additives.
" Eat more high fibre foods.
