Nowadays cellulitis represents one of woman’s essential esthetical preoccupations, patrimony of female gender, and a privilege that women would love to dispense.

Although this is a recent term, the process is very antique; we just need to examine the models that worked out for antique artists: Watteau, Coubet, and Renoir.

It affects more than 98% of women and it is clinically proven that the apparition of cellulitis as much as its evolution degree depend on metabolic cycles, as puberty, menstruation, pregnancy, etc. It is provoked by diverse factors as: hormonal influence, inheritance, circulatory, nutritional or emotional deficit, sedentarism, excess of toxins (coffee, cigarettes, etc.) and stress. The whole process provokes liquids retention, metabolism imbalance, bad circulation, and the multiplication of adipose cells that compress the small vessels and break sustentation fibres with the consequent waffled skin.

Although there are a diversity of concepts and terms to define it, the name “CELLULITE” is the most spread and known by the population. The correct term is “EDEMATOFIBROESCLEROSIC PANICULOPATY”.

It is a pathology that self-installs in a cruel way, no woman escapes from this reality, not even the top models.

There is a variety of expensive cosmetic products available in the market announced as producing wonders in a few days. It is necessary to clarify that those products are applied on the corporal surface with the objective of cleaning, perfuming, protecting, and maintaining it in good condition. Due to that reason they are destined to the hygiene and to the cutaneous structure’s (skin) conservation. For that reason they are not able to have a therapeutic and pharmacologic action correcting a pathological expression of adipose-vascular, subcutaneous and dermic tissue.

Every cellulite treatment must be oriented to activating the peripheral microcirculation, reducing the extra cellular matrix’s viscosity, benefiting lipolysis, reducing edema, and regularizing the capillary permeability. The lipidic effect of the anti-cellulite treatments is beneficial to obtain a volume reduction of the localized rolls.
