Do you know what causes and how to treat cellulite?
Find out in this article.
Scientifically known as Gynoid Lipodystrophy (LDG), cellulite is an alteration in the fatty tissue caused by the accumulation of fat, water and toxins in the cells. Together with changes in microcirculation and consequent increase in fibrous tissue, this whole process causes ripples and retractions in the skin, causing unevenness and nodules mainly in the buttocks and legs area.
The appearance of cellulite is caused by several factors, one of the main ones being genetics. However, sex, ethnicity, biotype, fat and weight distribution, skin flaccidity, lifestyle, circulatory changes, hormonal problems, poor diet and even stress, may be related to the development from cellulite.
How to eliminate cellulite?
Cellulite is not a serious medical condition, but it can be indicative of an unhealthy lifestyle. Therefore, the best way to prevent and treat cellulite is to have healthy habits. Some practices can help reduce or prevent the appearance of cellulite, such as having a diet rich in proteins and fibers, drinking plenty of water every day, having a constant practice of physical exercise, avoiding tobacco and maintaining an ideal weight.
Although it is not a health issue, cellulite can cause self-esteem issues. It is possible to considerably reduce the appearance of cellulite through minimally or non-invasive treatments.

Testimonials from our patients
Dr. Fátima Baptista Fernandes started taking care of me and I am grateful. After aggressive chemotherapy, the skin on my face lacked elasticity and firmness. The wrinkles were very marked. Looking in the mirror became uncomfortable. I'm looking for myself, without the memory of cancer. And Dr. Fátima Baptista Fernandes has been exceptional to me. Walk slowly, don't rush.
I had surgery in February this year. These are fairy hands from Dr. Fátima Baptista Fernandes and the entire team. Thank you all!
Dr. João is one of the best surgeons I know. I speak from experience because a few years ago the Doctor and his wife did a reconstruction on my stomach which was not easy at all and it was impeccable, which is why I always recommend their names. A year ago I took my bedpan to the Clinic for a breast augmentation and it looked spectacular! They are special people. Friendly, accessible and very aware of the work they do. They are excellent professionals.
Dr. Fátima Baptista Fernandes is a doctor who, in addition to being super cheerful and cheerful, is extremely professional with supreme dedication to her patients and their cases. My husband has been a patient of Dr. Fátima for a few years now... She is his doctor of choice and he won't change it!
