Eliminate cellulite from thighs, hips or buttocks: a complete guide

When we talk about "cellulite on the inner thigh," it's crucial to understand that the term can refer to two very different conditions. On the one hand, there's cosmetic cellulite, commonly known as "orange peel skin," which is a very common aesthetic concern. On the other hand, there's infectious cellulitis, a serious medical condition caused by bacteria that requires immediate attention.
In this comprehensive guide, we will address both conditions so you can identify which one affects you and how to act in each case.

Aesthetic cellulite (or orange peel skin) on thighs, hips or buttocks

Cellulite is a cosmetic condition that primarily affects women and is characterized by the formation of dimples and nodules in the skin, especially in areas such as the thighs. Although its exact causes are not fully understood, hormonal, genetic, and lifestyle factors play a crucial role.
At Beldon, we know that each area of ​​the body requires specific care. Cellulite is more complex than simply the growth of fat cells, and it develops differently in each part of the body.

Our free personalized diagnosis allows us to assess without error what stage it is and whether it is fibrous, edematous or adipose cellulite.

This diagnosis is fundamental because each one requires a specific protocol and cosmetics with specific ingredients.

THE THREE TYPES OF AESTHETIC CELLULITE

Our free personalized diagnosis allows us to assess without error what stage it is and whether it is fibrous, edematous or adipose cellulite.

ADIPOSE CELLULITIS

It is generally linked to excess weight, and although it is soft and the orange peel skin only becomes evident when the skin is pinched, it can appear in any area of ​​the body, including arms or back.

It is a sign that the excess fat has begun to multiply in size.

The most powerful lipolytic agents, such as caffeine, L-Carnitine or fucus, are ultra effective in reversing it.

EDEMATOUS CELLULITIS

It is caused by a malfunction of the lymphatic or circulatory system, and it tends to appear on the outer thighs and inner knees. The nodules are visible to the naked eye and are painful to the touch. In addition, the skin in the affected area is often dehydrated.

After the first phase of fluid retention, sugars begin to attach to adipocytes, causing glycation.

To combat it, products with a built-in massager and draining agents such as guarana extract or horse chestnut are ideal.

FIBROUS CELLULITIS

In this case, there is no sagging, and the skin is so hard and firm that it is difficult to pinch. The skin is hard and firm, toned to the touch. It is usually very localized in areas such as the gluteal fold, hips, or thighs. It can certainly occur in very thin people.

It's the newest and easiest to remove. The anti-cellulite ingredients are very effective.

Once you understand the causes and the areas where they tend to settle, we'll tell you what the best treatments are for each one and the ingredients they require.

Infectious Cellulitis

Unlike aesthetic cellulite, infectious cellulite is an acute bacterial infection of the skin and deeper tissues.

Causes

The infection is commonly caused by bacteria such as streptococci or staphylococci.

Key Symptoms

• Redness and heat
  





• Pain and tenderness
  





• Rapid expansion
  





• Fever and general malaise
  





• Possible blisters or oozing

When should you see a doctor?

Immediately! Treatment is based on antibiotics and, if not treated promptly, can cause serious complications.

Eliminate cellulite from thighs, hips or buttocks in stages

FIRM THE BUTTOCKS 

No one is trying to lose inches anymore. In recent years – and thanks to the physiques of icons like Kim Kardashian – the perfect butt is firm, perky, sculpted in the shape of an inverted heart, and of course, without a trace of cellulite.

Its worst enemy—besides unsightly dimples—is sagging skin. The law of gravity is inexorable in this area, and your anti-cellulite routine should include products capable of smoothing orange peel skin while toning and firming the skin.

Bodyshock Firm Up by Mesoestetic

• This is a firming and anti-stretch mark treatment (stretch marks commonly appear on the sides of the buttocks). Thanks to its combination of botanical ingredients, including the lifting effect of Kigelia africana, it increases skin firmness by 21% in just one month.

SLIM YOUR LEGS

The upper thighs are where cellulite is most concentrated. This is not surprising, because in addition to the increased size of the fat cells, fluid retention hinders circulation and exacerbates the problem. They require anti-cellulite cosmetics that also stimulate circulation and have draining effects.

Crème Liposulpt AC by Biologique Recherche

• A triple-action body cream: it reduces, reshapes, and tones the skin. It is enriched with Corallina Officinalis extract, which limits fat storage, reduces the thickness of adipose tissue, and targets cellulite while restructuring the skin and giving it a firm, toned appearance.

HIPS, THE PERFECT CURVE

 Going from saddlebags to hips is possible if you use the best lipolytic agents. Fibrous cellulite also tends to settle in these areas. If this is your biggest concern, don't hesitate:

Body Brush Medium Set by Dr Barbara Sturm

• This medium-pressure anti-cellulite brush exfoliates dry skin, stimulating blood flow and toxin elimination while preventing the appearance of cellulite.

FLAT STOMACH

Don't let the excess beer you consume in summer show on your abdominal area, which is also a prime target for cellulite once fat settles in. To check, suck in your stomach or pinch your belly. In this case, you should use products that both drain fat and reduce fat accumulation.

Bodyshock Essential Cream Mesoestetic

• It's a fast-absorbing slimming cream formulated with active ingredients that deeply hydrate and nourish the skin while diminishing the appearance of stretch marks and helping to prevent them. It leaves the skin feeling soft and firm.
