What are we facing?

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1744623393066{padding-bottom: 16px !important;}”]A brief review to understand the treatments.<\/span><\/p>\n

On the one hand, the <\/span>cellulitis<\/b>. The \u201cblissful\u201d cellulite. Why does it appear?<\/span><\/p>\n

Studies suggest that it begins with an alteration<\/span> of microcirculation<\/b>. Water leaks from the small blood vessels into the subcutaneous tissue and produces and <\/span>edema<\/b>. If it is not controlled, they end up escaping waste products.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This fluid and toxin retention leads to the development of <\/span>hardened fibrous septa<\/b>, like partitions rigid that hold the skin and pull it down. Septations that imprison adipose cells, creating nodules that become painful.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this situation the <\/span>fat protrudes<\/b>. That is, when it is \u201ctight,\u201d it slides upward and pushes the skin surface.. More if it accumulates due to weight gain.<\/span><\/p>\n

Look. One pulls, another pushes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So <\/span>dimples become visible<\/b> and that aspect of orange peel that is so uncomfortable. A very common aesthetic alteration in women (especially in the legs, hips and buttocks), greatly influenced by estrogen, genetics and lifestyle habits.<\/span><\/p>\n

Then there is the flabbiness, which is due to collagen<\/span> and elastin deterioration<\/b> due to aging, UV radiation, tobacco, etc. The dermis atrophies and the skin loses smoothness and flexibility. The thinning of the fat layer also favors this laxity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So we have 2 different problems\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

But what <\/span>they usually go hand in hand<\/b>:<\/span><\/p>\n
