Many girls and women are familiar with the problem of so-called orange peel skin.
Cellulite spoils the appearance of the skin even for ladies with an ideal figure, limiting their choice of clothing.
This of course does not affect health and well-being, but it makes you feel insecure.
If in the days of long, fluffy skirts no one worried about this, then modern women do not want to put up with this disadvantage.
But not all information about this problem is reliable. Let's look at the most common misconceptions about cellulite.
Myth 1. Skinny people don't have cellulite.
Girls believe that cellulite appears only in people with excess weight. This is partly true.
Often, along with extra pounds, orange peel also appears. However, this is caused by poor nutrition, fluid retention in the body, and poor blood circulation. With rapid weight loss, the quality of the skin will only worsen.
Therefore, you should not stick to strict diets, but to a proper balanced diet in combination with physical exercise and massage.
Myth two. Fighting cellulite is a difficult and long process
It is really impossible to get rid of this problem in one go. However, this does not mean that the fight against cellulite will drag on for a long time.
The most effective methods include: contrast, hot wraps, and massage with a hard dry brush.
You can also include exercises to work out the back of the thigh. You will see the result in two weeks.
Myth three. To lose weight, it is enough to undergo an anti-cellulite program in a beauty salon
Anti-cellulite massage and body wraps in the salon are really effective procedures, but without following a diet and exercise regimen you will not see much progress.
Cosmetic procedures are primarily designed to improve the quality of the skin. Only a calorie deficit will help reduce the percentage of fat in the body.
Myth 4. Cellulite is the first sign of impending old age
This is not true. Orange peel appears even in girls as young as 16 years old.
During puberty, there may be disruptions in the functioning of the hormonal system, which can also be the cause of cellulite.
Myth 5. Coffee provokes the appearance of cellulite
This is not true. Caffeine, on the contrary, improves lymphatic drainage and blood circulation in the body. That is why it is included in many cosmetics. By the way, a scrub made of sea salt and coffee grounds is very helpful in the fight against cellulite.
To get the skin of your thighs and buttocks in order, you don’t need to spend a lot of time and money. Eat right, exercise, get massages – soon you will be able to forget about cellulite.
