How can I reduce the amount of cellulite in my thighs?

Cellulite is a complex issue - so far as I know no cream alone can get rid of these unsightly bumps. Getting rid of it also involves massage, diet and exercise.

In this blog I will talk about using the Galvanic Spa and gels for an effective reduction treatment.

This condition describes what occurs in men and women (although much more common in women) where the skin of the lower limbs, abdomen, and pelvic region becomes dimpled after puberty.

Descriptive names for this include orange peel syndrome and cottage cheese skin. Note it is unrelated to cellulitis, which is infection of the skin and its underlying connective tissue.

It is actually a fancy name for collections of fat that push against the connective tissue beneath a person's skin, which causes the surface of the skin to dimple or pucker and look lumpy. Hence the name cottage cheese.

It occurs when enlarged fat cells pinch blood vessels, blocking the delivery of cellular nutrients and the removal of waste products (toxins).

These hardened fibers then pull the skin down, while the swollen tissues push up on the skin, resulting in the “orange peel” bumps and dimples.

The Galvanic Spa® II Body Shaping Gel works exclusively with the Galvanic Spa® II instrument to minimize and smooth the appearance of cellulite.

This at-home spa treatment concentrates cellular energy to target pockets of fat and toxins for a more toned, firm appearance. Featuring theobromine and golden chamomile, this advanced treatment helps decrease fat storage and activate fat breakdown, promoting a firmer, more toned appearance.

What are the key ingredients in this body shaping gel?

The two key ingredients are Theobromine and Golden Chamomile.

Theobromine is rich in a molecule shown to have an effect on a certain enzyme in fat cells, and may help in fat breakdown.

Golden Chamomile is an extract rich in flavonoids, a class of effective antioxidants.

The body shaping gel is used with the Galvanic Spa 2 and the metal body shaping conductor that fits on the end of the instrument. You should apply a comfortable level of pressure when performing a treatment.

Two testimonials in favor of the body shaping treatment are the following:

“Cellulite reduction products?! I never used to believe in them, but with Body Shaping Gel, I’m a ‘believer.’ The rippled, dimpled cellulite that kept me out of shorts and swimwear has now been noticeably minimized and smoothed, giving me greater confidence in showing my legs.”

“I’m delighted with my results with the Galvanic Spa II Instrument and the Body Shaping Gel. I compared my treated thigh with my non-treated thigh and the results were measurable.”
