Cellulite is caused by weakened blood vessels, diminished blood
flow, and weakened connective tissues.
Effective ways to treat cellulite and improve skin tone is to
build a strong and healthy dermis by:
- Strengthening the blood vessels & increasing production of
connective tissues
- Increasing blood flow in the skins cells
- Repairing cell membranes - cleaning out the toxins of the skin
cells allows the cells to be replaced with healthy cells that are
stronger and more youthful.
- Reducing inflammation and bloating in the cells.
- Reducing and eliminating toxins from the skin.
- Stimulating the production of Collagen and Elastin which
fortify's the connective tissues to keep them strong.
- Hydrating the cells - cells that are dehydrated are severely
weakened and are vulnerable to fat making its way to the surface
layers of the skin. By hydrating the skin properly, your cells
force the fat back to the lower levels and away from the surface.
- Preventing free-radical damage - smoking, sun damage and poor
diet all create free-radical damage in the skin cells which are
then more susceptible to cellulite and stretch marks. Antioxidants
help reduce this damage. (inside and out)
- Promote exfoliation - as you age, your body's rate of cell
turnover diminishes, leaving you with a surface of dead skin
cells. Exfoliating the skin helps to remove these dead skin cells
and promote new stronger, more youthful cells. By removing the
dead cells, you also increase the efficiency of topical
treatments.
Therefore, the most important properties in topical treatments
include anti-inflammatory, antioxidants, ingredients that enhance
circulation, stimulate blood flow, exfoliate and remove toxins, make
the skin more hydrated, softer, smoother and healthier.
We incorporate all of the finest
ingredients for the most advanced formula for reducing,
preventing and even eliminating cellulite.
The Body's Natural Waste disposal system - The Lymph System
The body has a natural defense in clearing away bacteria, cell
debris, excess water, proteins and wastes from the connective tissue
and returning it to the bloodstreams for ultimate removal by the
kidneys. This is called lymphatic drainage system which acts as a
natural defense in the body. This lymphatic system transports
damaged cells, inflammatory substances and wasted water away from
the cells, aiding in the recovery and improvement of the skin cells
and surrounding tissue.
The good news is, the lymph system can be manually stimulated to
increase the lymphatic drainage. This is vital in cellulite
reduction, inch loss, reduction in stretch marks and varicose veins
and overall skin health.
The
technique of gentle lymph massage called Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD)
affects the nervous system, smoothes muscles, and increases fluid
movement in the connective tissue.
The massage technique involves gentle circulatory massage on
lymph nodes and is typically performed in a salon or spa by a
aestitian or body wrap technician prior to cellulite and body wrap
treatments.
Skin Brushing is another technique that stimulates the lymph
nodes, increasing blood flow, removes dead skin cells and encourages
new cell growth. Using a body brush in a gentle circular motion on
the affected areas before applying the Body Contouring Gel increases
the benefits of the gel for treatment of cellulite.
Body Contouring Gel works by stimulating circulation, blood flow
and the lymphatic system and penetrates deep into the pores to
exfoliate and remove toxins and leaves skin hydrated, smoother and
healthier.
