and your new campaign against Cellulite Cellesse is a special massage system designed to help you reduce or prevent the unsightly appearance of Cellulite. Cellesse is the result of years of research in the Philips Personal Care Institute. We have investigated the causes of Cellulite, tested different types of treatment available and developed a solution which will help you get the results you want. In the following pages we look, in some detail, at the causes of Cellulite and how Cellesse can help you with this particulary feminine problem. Note: carefully read all pages of this booket, especially the chapter “Read carefully before using Cellesse”. Cellulite- a feminine problem So-called Cellulite is the increased visibility of the lumpy fat deposits through the surface of the skin. A common description is ‘orange peel skin’ because of its unique pitted, bumpy appearance. Cellulite is a cosmetic beauty problem which affects the appearance of certain parts of your body, notably the hips, thighs and buttocks. In more extreme cases, Cellulite can be uncomfortable, even painful when touched or squeezed. Cellulite should not be confused with “cellulitis” which is a medical term linked to bacterial infection of the skin and associated inflammation of the tissue. There are two main influences to the formation of Cellulite: 1) Natural mattress structure in the female skin Firstly, Cellulite is due to the specific, however natural mattress structure of the female skin. It is a fact of nature that women This mattress structure can be made especially visible when the skin is squeezed. All women have the possibility of developing Cellulite because of this structure of the female fat deposits. Try the Squeeze Test This is easy to identify. Just gently squeeze an area of your upper thigh with both hands and you will most probably see the mattress shaped fat layer in your skin. Especially when the fat deposits are full due to weight gain or when the skin is naturally thin (or becomes thin through the normal ageing process) the lumpy appearance of the skin can become more visible. 2) Fluid retention Vertical fat deposits in the female skin Horizontal fat deposit in the male skin have, unlike men, vertical fat deposits in their skin (men’s are This natural skin condition can however progress to a stage in more horizontal). which Cellulite becomes visible on the legs without squeezing. 5 In most of these cases fluid retention is affecting the fatlayer. Two simple tests to determine what stage of Cellulite Women tend to retain more fluid than men, especially in their you have. Two simple tests to determine what stage of Cellulite Women tend to retain more fluid than men, especially in their you have. legs. This water retention also affects the fat tissue in the skin resulting in excess fluid around the fat cells. This adds to the puffiness of the mattress and make the Cellulite layer swell. If this fluid retention is allowed to continue for months and years, the fat deposits thicken and harden, and eventually hard lumps are being formed. These lumps can then be seen through the skin without squeezing. This chronic situation can be painful when squeezed or pinched, and is, unlike the light and medium forms of Cellulite, almost irreversible. Try the Pinch Test To check whether you have problems with fluidretention in your legs you can gently pinch the skin of your upper thigh and try to lift it away from the underlying layers. If this hurts, especiallly when you then press it, it could be a first indication of water retention and additional swelling of the Cellulite layer.

On the contrary, it is likely to increase. The only solution is to make the fight against Cellulite part of your regular personal care routine - and begin treatment before the problem develops any further than it has today. The good news is that Cellulite can be reduced, but it can never be completely eliminated and will return when neglected. Your fight against Cellulite may have already taken many forms: diet, exercise, the use of special creams and gels, massage and even surgery. Now Cellesse adds an effective, purpose-designed approach which gets right down to the root causes. The alternative treatment options Diet and Cellulite. As described before Cellulite is not necessarily associated with being overweight only. Dieting tends to reduce fat which will help to reduce the swelling of the fat layer. However “feminine curves” like buttocks and thighs are especially resistant to losing fat. Next to dieting, there is evidence that certain foods are linked to the formation of Cellulite, especially to the water retention: tea, coffee, alcohol and refined foods such as white flour and sugar should be avoided as much as possible. Exercise can also help in fighting Cellulite. Low intensity aer...
