Cellulite appears when adipose cells directly below the skin enlarge as a result of hormonal triggers. These types of fat cells are embedded with collagen fibres’, functioning as a padded protective layer.
  • Page 9 What you must know about cellulite | 04. In the case of cellulite, we can divide hormonal activity into two very specific groups: action on adipocyte tissue action on fat distribution Adipocytes contain two different hormonal receptors – Alpha and Beta. Alpha beta-receptors Alpha receptors are responsible for adipogenesis, they transform free fatty acids from the blood into triglycerides (fat) to be stored in the adipocyte cells.

  • Page 35 For Best Results | 14 Consume nutrient-rich foods Replacing high-calorie foods packed with fats and sugar by a selection of fruits and vegetables is a logical choice.

  • Page 36 For Best Results | 14 Exercise regularly Exercise is an important part of a healthy life style. Exercise stimulates the metabolism. Beta receptors are also stimulated into transforming fat, stored in the adipocyte cells, into energy. The exercise need not be strenuous in order to be beneficial: A brisk walk is a great way to start any regular exercise program.

Client consent form Customer’s name: Date: Treatment sites: ________________________________________________ The term cellulite refers to the dimpled, “lumpy-bumpy”, orange peel appearance of the skin that some people have on their hips, abdomen, thighs, and buttocks. This irregular skin appearance is much more common in women than in men because of differences in the way fat, muscle, and connective tissue are distributed in men and women's skin.
