Cellulite and Omeopatia – Can It Really Work?

For years, scientists have been trying to find new ways of treating cellulite; an issue that predominates 90% of women of Western Society. Cellulite has an array of different definitions of what it is and why it occurs. One of these is that cellulite is caused by the dimply and rippling effect of the fat in the subcutaneous level, which is the first of three just below the skin. It is believed that this layer of fat cannot be altered by exercise or diet, and must therefore be treated via external means. Popular today are treatments by way of incorporating homeopathic remedies, also referred to as omeopatia (Italian term). Cellulite and omeopatia’s include mesotherapy, also known as Lipdissolve.

Homeopathy and Mesotherapy

Mesotherapy is an intravenous procedure which involves the insertion of homeopathic substances into the subcutaneous fat below the skin. Homeopathy began in the late eighteenth century and is based on the notion that substances that would normally produce an adverse effect on the body, when administered into the body in very minute doses, will stimulate the body’s natural fighting system, creating a remedy to a particular illness. Mesotherapy, which works via the insertion of mesoderm (a distillation of toxins similar to those found in cellulite deposits) using very fine needles is thought to provoke the body into removing the fatty cells called cellulite. Arnica, also a popular hometherapic substance used to treat sprains and bruises, is thought to help speed and heal the body following the mesotharapic procedure by taking it orally of applying it to the skin on a daily basis. Cellulite and omeopatia may be a positive treatment for some, but not for others.

Cellulite and Omeopatia – The Cons

One of the most obvious cons of cellulite and omeoptic remedies is the cost involved. Most treatments have been priced at between $200 to $500, and as most practitioners recommend that at least four treatments are given before results can be seen, this can add up to be quite costly – particularly if it doesn’t work! Like any treatment, cellulite and omeopatia may work for some, but not for others. Mesotherapy can also produce tender and bruised skin on the treated area for up to two weeks, and some people may experience a rash or hives as well. Whether people want to take this risk of using the procedure for possible gains or loss is completely up to the individual. Unfortunately though, what most women forget is that cellulite is normal, and almost all women experience it is some form. And since it is not an illness or disease, it should be obvious that it is hard to β€œtreat”! Cellulite and omeopatia may be the answer to a problem for some, but may also be a waste of time, money and energy for others.
