Spring cleaning: Ways to obliterate the lumps and bumps before summer

Cellulite is a problem that affects 85% of women (and a respectable percentage of men too) over the age of 20.

But until now, cellulite was treated mainly with topical creams, exercise and intensive rolling massage techniques. Even advanced Lipo procedures were largely ineffective because of the fibrous nature of cellulite fat cells.

Not just cellulite, but fat deposits on chins, arms, thighs and tummies that are resistant to exercise are bedeviling to many people who are within normal weight ranges.

But there are fantastic affordable breakthroughs in deep penetrating lasers, sound waves and new Lipo techniques that stimulate fat cells to spill their contents out and either melt away (via a suctioning cannula) or be excreted through the body's natural elimination process.There is even a breakthrough skin firming and perfecting body makeup that creates a perfect canvas of skin topically to further boost confidence.

Non-Surgical Fix for Extra Post-Pregnancy Skin

Hmmm…I wonder what could have interested me in this topic… perhaps my four pregnancies? Especially the pregnancy with twins that meant my belly carried around 14lbs of babies? Hmmmm… nonetheless, Dr. Bloch –recognized as one of the foremost practitioners of modern Plastic Surgical techniques and who appeared on Oprah — gives the scoop after Breezy Mama was, ahem, for some reason wondering if there is a solution outside of surgery or even sit-ups alone on how to get rid of excess skin after pregnancy has stretched out your belly and left it with some, er, let’s be honest, a whole lotta skin.

Can sit ups alone reduce excess skin after pregnancy?

No. There are no muscles in the skin so sit-ups have no effect in tightening the skin other thanincreasing muscle mass and tone and thereby adding underlying bulk which may give the illusion of skin tightening.

I’ve read that reducing carbs from foods other than veggies can reduce excess skin — any thoughts on that?
