I wanted to buy some sort of cream that can diminish the appearance of cellulite but I am not too sure of which will work best. And because these products are relatively expensive, I didn’t want to buy something that just to find out that it doesn’t work. Please give the brand of teh product and teh results you’ve witnessed! Thanks!

Is there any cream i could use to get rid of cellulite?
What exercises do you recommend to tone up my legs and gluts. They are kind of wiggly.

Cellulite creams do not work. Think about what they claim to do…rub a cream on the skin and your fat cells disappear? Huh? To properly treat cellulite you’ll need to do a combination of things. First, you should go see someone who specializes in cellulite reduction. There is some amazing technology out there that really can help. Take a look at VelaShape technology. There are also several machines – spa equipment – that is used successfully…take a look at the LipoMax RF machine and find a therapist who has one. Most of these treatments will work for you, but you should also be doing moderate weight lifting for the area in question – you can’t spot reduce fat, but you can tone the muscles in the area, which will help.

I have a little bit of cellulite that really bothers me on the backs of my thighs only. I know that almost 100% of women suffer from the same thing, so I’d like to know if any girls out there have had any success with any type of lotions, massage, or treatments? I’d love to hear your story!

Although many people place scalp acne under one umbrella category, there are actually a few different types of skin conditions that can be confused for acne on the scalp and they range in severity from mildly irritating to a variety that is painful and can lead to scarring. Scalp acne can appear at any place on the scalp and each type has its own telltale signs and treatment methods. As with facial and back acne, there is no clear cut reason why some people have it and others don’t, but genetics, hormones, stress, and skin care all play a role in the development of any type of acne. However, though facial and back acne both occur in the same manner and from the same bacteria infection, there are several forms of scalp acne that do not follow suit. Each different type of scalp acne has unique symptoms and causes, but share several treatments with each other as well as with facial and back acne.

Although many different skin conditions occur on the scalp, sometimes it is just plain old acne. Acne on your scalp can be difficult to treat, but washing your hair enough to keep it from getting greasy is one of the best things you can do. Many times an oral medication is needed to get scalp acne under control since the scalp is tough to treat directly. If you do attempt any topical treatments, make sure to avoid benzoyl peroxide since it can bleach your hair.

Other than normal acne, the most common form of scalp acne is called folliculitis. Although folliculitis commonly occurs on the scalp, any hair follicle can develop folliculitis. Like other types of acne, the affected pore or hair follicle becomes infected by bacteria, but folliculitis is caused by the Staphylococcus or staph bacteria while facial acne is caused by different bacteria called p. acnes. However, folliculitis can also be caused by yeast or mites in the hair. Folliculitis can develop because the hair follicle is damaged by shaving, wearing a hat, or exposure to makeup or chemicals that affect the follicle. Once a follicle is damaged, it is very susceptible to infection and, consequently, folliculitis. Folliculitis usually develops along the front hairline and itches a great deal, making folliculitis difficult to bear on a cosmetic and comfort level. Folliculitis treatment varies depending on the cause of infection. Doctors often prescribe an antibacterial or antifungal medicine to get rid of the severe cases of folliculitis, although some shampoos will eliminate folliculitis. If you wish to treat folliculitis on your scalp, look for a shampoo that contains one of these ingredients: 2.5% selenium sulfide, 1% selenium, or 50% propylene glycol. Mild folliculitis may go away without treatment, but if it reoccurs, you should consult a doctor. Severe cases that continue to reoccur may need to be treated by performing laser removal on the infected follicle or follicles.

Although it is sometimes classified as a separate condition, necrotica milaris is a severe type of folliculitis that affects the scalp. It is considered a chronic form of folliculitis, but is treated in the same way. Unlike normal folliculitis, nocrotica milaris has the potential to scar and stop hair from growing in the scarred area. In some cases, Accutane may be prescribed to eliminate necrotica milaris.

Varioliformis is another type of scalp acne that many physicians consider to be a type of folliculitis, and is treated in the same manner. Varioliformis is characterized by brown pimple-like formations around the front hairline.

The most severe form of scalp acne is called Dissecting Cellulite. It most commonly occurs in black males between the ages of 20 and 40, but it occurs in men and women of other races. Dissecting cellulite often begins with a case of folliculitis that will not respond to normal treatments. Dissecting cellulite will typically occur in large patches that have raised nodules and no hair growth. In severe cases, these nodules can be drained surgically, and X-rays were the preferred treatment for decades. However, many physicians will first try Accutane, which has been shown to have mixed results. It has also been found that ablative lasers are effective in curing dissecting cellulite.

Although scalp acne occurs in a few different forms, it is typically regular acne or a form of folliculitis. Because of the seriousness of some forms of folliculitis, if you notice acne on your scalp, you should treat it as quickly as possible. If you do not want to see a physician at first, at least try to treat it with the above mentioned shampoos to see if this home remedy will clear it up. However, if home treatments do not cure your scalp acne, you should see a physician so that baldness does not result.

The skin is the largest elimination organ, it is known to be responsible for 10 to 15% of total body elimination, and is sometimes referred to as the third kidney.

Dry skin brushing is a swift and powerful way to enhance the detoxification process . It’s easy, pleasant and yields tremendous benefits!

Not only does it improve the appearance of your skin by eliminating dead cells and helping new skin to regenerate, it also stimulates blood circulation, the lymphatic system, and greatly enhances toxin elimination.

In addition, the massaging effect of the bristles is known to be highly beneficial for eliminating cellulite.

Brushing the skin gently stimulates the lymphatic system and is considered to be one of the best natural lymphatic cleansers available.

The lymphatic system is composed of lymph vessels, lymph nodes, and organs. Part of the body’s defense system, the lymph nodes remove microorganisms and other foreign substances. They act as a filtration system that keeps particulate matter, such as bacteria, from entering the bloodstream.

Stimulating the lymphatic system through skin brushing will activate all of the above functions as well as encourage blood circulation and cell regeneration. Both actions promote detoxification, weight loss and cellulite reduction, as well as improve body tone and skin radiance.

I have been regularly brushing my skin for the last 2 months, in addition to my Detox Bath, and am genuinely amazed at the benefits I am experiencing. Not to mention that I’m really flattered by the compliments I am receiving on how healthy and radiant I look! My normally dry skin seems a lot more supple, I am eliminating better, and the cellulite lumps on my thighs and hips are now less visible…

All you need is a NATURAL bristle brush with a long handle or a loofah…and 5 minutes.

I start with brushing my feet –including the soles- moving upwards to the tighs, in small circular motions.

For the upper body part, I put one arm up and brush down towards my armpit and then move to the other arm. When brushing my torso I brush towards the heart. Brushing over the top of the breast I insist on the armpit, where there’s a concentration of lymphatic nodes. I finish off with small circular brushing around the neck and shoulders, avoiding the face where the skin is sensitive.

I then brush my abdomen from the left side to the right, and go around in circles to gently massage the colon. I insist on the hips and thighs as skin brushing is an excellent treatment for cellulite.

As a general guide, it is more beneficial to brush from the extremities towards the core of the body.

Always brush gently, and especially over the sensitive areas. In time, and with practice, your skin will become more resilient and endure more vigorous brushing. It is important to avoid brushing over bruises, cuts or irritated areas.

Dry Skin Brushing benefits are numerous and include:

Accelerating toxin elimination

Stimulating blood flow and circulation

Reducing Cellulite

Enhancing lymphatic flow

Exfoliation and removal of dead skin cells

Anti-aging through cell regeneration

Stimulating both the sweat and sebaceous glands, thus contributing to the restoration of moist, supple skin.

Brushing your whole body will take around 3 to 5 minutes. Always brush the skin when it’s dry, and follow with a hot shower to wash off the dead cells.

To complete a PERFECT detox, finish up with a 10-minute cold Detox Bath.

The Detox Bath is based on an ancestral detox technique created by Louis Kuhne of Leipzig, the father of detox, in the 1880’s, and is proven to encourage toxin, waste and fat elimination. The Detox Bath’s working principle is to refresh the core area of the body (groin) during 10 minutes daily. This process creates a vibration in the fascia (interconnecting tissue covering all internal organs), which sets in motion a roll-back effect transporting waste, fat and deposited toxins back to the intestines, where they are later eliminated.

The whole procedure of skin brushing, hot shower and Detox Bath should take no more than 30 minutes, but it is far superior than any detox spa treatment you can get, and it’s free! The best part for me is that it doesn’t involve starving myself or going on harrowing detox diets.

You will soon experience a significantly better toxin elimination, rejuvenation and renewed energy, and your body and health will thank you for it!
