#### Solutions to the issues follow down below

We've all been there. There’s cellulite bulging from beneath the skin, and unwelcomed fat seems to be layering up, in places you’d rather they not. Nothing seems to work anymore, if at all. The “miracle” creams that promised even, glossy skin lay discarded on your nightstand, half-empty, but with no results to show. But then again, pulling and tugging at your skin in exasperation doesn’t seem to be working either. So, you lay on your bed, drained, confused, annoyed, but most of all, disappointed. 

**It’s all. So. Tiring.**

So, where do you go from here? You’ve tried it all, but it just isn’t working. Before you roll your eyes and give up searching for another solution: Don’t lose hope, reader, because *solutions are available*. But first of all, in order to find a way to work past these, we need to know where these issues stem from.

Before that, there’s something we must address. There’s a misconception that these are a definitive ‘problem’. Cellulite is harmless and unwanted fat is more so an issue based on personal taste as everyone holds it differently, though can sometimes indicate underlying health issues. Whether you would like to get rid of these is merely a matter of personal aesthetic and health concerns. 

Now, onto the causes. There is no concrete cause of cellulite, but there are many factors that experts think may affect its accumulation. One specific root is thought to be fibrous connective cords, that attach the skin to the muscle beneath. Between them, lays pockets of fat and as fat cells gather, the push up towards the skin and against it, which works in opposition to the connective cords that pull downwards. The result? Cellulite, with skin that appears bumpy and texturized.  Aging can also induce cellulite, as the skin loses collagen and thus becomes less elastic. Genetics also play a large role, as they determine your overall skin makeup, *so cellulite isn’t just exclusive to people that carry more weight*. As for unwanted fat, it could just be genetic as genes can influence metabolism just as well. However, issues like a poor diet, stress and a faulty sleeping schedule (yes, something we’re all guilty of) can all affect the accumulation of fat. 

Now, there are many ways to resolve these issues. Both the technical procedures and alternatives will be covered, to ensure you get maximum results in the path you decide to take. These include [Aqualyx Fat Dissolving injections](/aqualyx-fat-dissolving/), [Cryolipolysis Fat Freezing](/fat-freezing-cryolipolysis/), and [3D Bespoke Non-Surgical Fat Removal](/3D-bespoke-non-surgical-fat-removal/)/[3D Bespoke Cellulite Removal](/3D-bespoke-cellulite-removal/). Now, this may sound a little too wordy for your tastes, but you’ll come to realise that these are all efficient in their task: **removing cellulite and fat**. 

#### Aqualyx Fat Dissolving Injections

[Aqualyx Fat Dissolving injections dissolve fat cells, with considerable results](/aqualyx-fat-dissolving/). Not only is it biodegradable, but they’re essentially permanent, since once the injections are in, the fat regenerates so slowly, that it isn’t even noticeable. It promotes skin tightening too and treatment intervals are every six weeks or so. 

However, this treatement is not to be done on patients that have kidney or liver conditions, taking medicines that thin blood or have diabetes. It’s also crucial to ensure that the practitioner is especially skilled in these injections, due to Aqualyx being quite powerful and dangerous if too much is injected in. This won’t be an issue, however, if you find the correct practitioner, which are available to you today at Charmelle London. 

#### Cryolipolysis Fat Freezing

[Cryolipolysis treatment is also a good method to reduce fat cells](/fat-freezing-cryolipolysis/). Even six months after treatment, results are still evident. In all honesty, who wouldn't want that? One explicit advantage is that it isn't surgical and doesn't require anaesthesia.

Cryolipolysis involves applying an applicator and having the podge of skin (fat) vacuumed into it. The temperature decreases and the issue is practically resolved. Yup, it’s as easy as that. Another benefit is that there is no damage to muscles, blood vessels, or permanent damage to the skin in the treatment area. 

It can also be performed on clients of all ages. Though it should be considered that it isn’t advised to be done on people that are obese or overly overweight. 

Moreover, if there needs to be a follow-up session, it can take up to two months for it to be performed, due to the fat cells having to be expelled by the body.

#### Bespoke Non-Surgical Fat Removal and Bespoke Cellulite Removal

Other available treatments include [3D Bespoke Non-Surgical Fat Removal](/3D-bespoke-non-surgical-fat-removal/) and [3D Bespoke Cellulite Removal](/3D-bespoke-cellulite-removal/), both treatments as you will find, are tailored to the individual’s needs as a person, and offer various techniques for one satisfactory outcome, which can **remedy cellulite and fat**, though bring upon **a host of benefits like body-reshaping and skin tightening**. 

### Natural Remedies

If you prefer a more natural route, there’s also a host of things you can do. These include:

#### Exercise

This is pretty self-explanatory but building up a regular regime and staying committed to it can really induce weight loss as well as sculpting a more defined, toned look. Let’s say that you don’t want to take extra classes, book that gym membership or even cycle your way through the streets. Even twenty minutes of cardio burns up to 360 calories, an outcome that we can all agree is admirable, and enough to make you get your workout mat out. 

#### Eat More Raw Foods

These include fruit, vegetables (who would’ve thought?), and fibre-rich foods. Swap these in the place of refined carbs, which are high in calories but low in the actual nutrients you need (your body will thank you). A surplus of carbs results in the development of abdominal fat. Moreover, nuts and legumes can induce feelings of fullness, prompting you to not eat anymore. 

#### Consume Green tea

Filled with antioxidants and nutrients, green tea promotes weight loss as well as overall health benefits. This is backed up by many studies, that show that it can specifically burn away abdominal fat too. It also allows the body’s metabolic system to become more efficient and productive, due to the specific antioxidants, caffeine, and catechin. One study showed that those who consumed green tea lost 2.9 pounds over a 12-week period. Pretty impressive, right? 

#### Eliminate Sugary Drinks

Studies show that an excess of sugary drinks can drastically increase the risk of obesity and are unnecessarily high in calories. In addition to this, visceral fat may be increased, and as a direct result, inflammation may occur within the body. Of course, the result is unwanted fat and a by-product of that is cellulite. Swap out the drinks for water or juice, and you’re good to go.

In conclusion, fat is something carried by the majority of us, albeit in different amounts, but it is something that is still natural and normal. Whether you treat it and how you treat it, is completely up to you, but the most important thing is to make sure you’re doing this out of personal choice, and not in a self-deprecating manner.

## Treatment Information

Our lip enhancements are not permanent alterations with results that can last up to 12 months. You will see immediate results that deliver on your needs and desires which would be discussed with your injector during your in-depth consultation. Your treatment plan will be explained in depth at consultation and we will only proceed once we are confident we can meet or exceed expectations.

At first, it is normal to be able to feel the product within the lips, which should settle down over the following weeks as the hyaluronic acid gets to work. This treatment is suitable for nearly all clients irrespective of their age dependant on each clients motiviations for having the treatment.

If, for any reason, you are unhappy with the way your lips appear, these HA injections can be reversed using an enzyme called hyaluronidase, which is introduced into the area via needle and dissolves the product, which is then flushed out of the body through natural processes.



<div class="alt-block">

### Commitment to quality

We only use the safest, most effective FDA-approved, naturally biodegradable dermal fillers at Charmelle London. These are clear hyaluronic acid gels which closely mimic the natural hyaluronic acid in our skin.



They are injected just beneath the surface of the skin and are one of the most popular treatments for filling and smoothing fine lines and wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid volumises, softens and hydrates the skin. It also aids collagen and elastin organisation underneath the skin which gives the skin a more youthful texture.

Dermal fillers are not permanent and will break down over time, so further treatment may be required to maintain your natural, understated appearance. Your practitioner will give you all the advice you need.

All the dermal fillers used at Charmelle London are made from hyaluronic acid, a natural component of our body and skin which breaks down after around 9 to 18 months.

So how do you go about maintaining good eyebrow health over the years? First of all, make sure that you invest in a good pair of tweezers - the most essential bit of kit you can buy where your brows are concerned.

And when it comes to the actual plucking, it’s important to remember that your eyebrows should be sisters, not twins, and you don’t want them to be entirely identical. Pluck a few hairs out day by day, rather than sitting down to get the job done in a single session. This will help to prevent over-plucking and your brows getting too thin.

If for whatever reason your brows do start to look a little patchy, start applying a serum of some kind to help bring them back to life and filling in any gaps you might have. You can also make your eyebrows look fuller by getting them tinted. In fact, you may discover that you actually have quite full eyebrows, but the hairs are lighter so you don’t notice them.

While you can use serums to keep your eyebrows well under your control, you may want to avoid clogging them up with your moisturisers and foundation. Be gentle with your face, as you don’t want to pull any hairs out unnecessarily.

How To Care For Your Eyebrows

Butterfly Effect Eyeliner

Often as we age, we can start to lose the definition around the lips and cupids bow, you will also notice that the lips aren’t as richly coloured as before.  Sometimes we are simply born with a lack of pigment or asymmetry in this area. 

Semi permanent lips are the  ideal solution for youthful lips and more confidence in your appearance. As we age we lose definition of the lip line.  The natural pigments in your lip line breaks up and become uneven.  With semi permanent lips you can restore your lip line and create more fullness to your lips. Lip enhancement  also works really well on any person who wants to create more symmetry or add more colour to pale lips. The lip tattoo treatment also benefits people who suffers from cleft lip by creating a cupids bow and adding pigment into the vermilion border.

Lip Blush Contour

When you’ve tried every powder, gel and pencil on the shelf and your eyebrows still look practically invisible, machine microblading could be the solution for you. Whether your brows are sparse, over-plucked or simply in need of definition, microblading can transform your look.

Microblading has become very popular over the last couple of years and is now often considered a part of many women’s beauty regime.
We use a handheld tool to create the look of individual hair strokes, which are incredibly natural and mimic your eyebrow hair. This is the perfect option for anyone who wants to define and shape their brows without having to apply pencils, powders and pomades every day. Whether you suffer from sparse, over-plucked eyebrows, alopecia or need definition, microblading can transform your appearance.

A technique that was first discovered thousands of years ago using a super fine microblade to etch lines into the skin that flow in the same direction as your hairs, this is the perfect brow look for those who want an extra natural and soft effect with the pigment placed into a higher layer of the skin.

No doubt you’ll have many questions in mind before embarking on any type of [permanent makeup treatment](/treatments/semi-permanent-makeup/). Here are just some of the most frequently asked questions, which will help you get to know this treatment a little better:

* Does it hurt? 
    * The honest answer is, ‘a little’. Some people feel it more than others, but it’s nowhere near as painful as a traditional tattoo.
* How long does it take? 
    * You will need more than one appointment for a complete treatment, and each should last around two hours. Anyone who claims to microblade your brows in 30 minutes is unlikely to do a good job!
* How long is the healing period?
    * The skin may be slightly red, and the colour will not be true immediately after treatment. It takes around a week for brows to heal, and about one month before the colour is fully settled in.
* How long do results last?
    * Depending on your skin and lifestyle, results can last for up to three years. Usually, our clients come back every 6-12 months for a touch-up.
* Are there any people it’s not suitable for?
    * People who have heart conditions, diabetes, specific allergies or have had particular treatments in the preceding weeks may not be suited for this procedure. Talk to your technician for more information.



Microblading

Ombré shading is a semi-permanent eyebrow styling technique that uses a small machine to place extremely thin dots of pigment into the skin, creating a soft-shaded brow pencil look.

The Ombre Brow is designed to create a natural and soft looking brow. Rather than using a block colour throughout the entire brow, the Ombre Brow technique uses a soft colour at the front of the brow and then slowly increases the gradient to produce a darker colour at the tail of the brow. 

Ombre powder brows provide a soft, misty, and fluffy finish that compliments the brow's natural shape and colour, giving it great depth and definition. The Ombre Brow technique reveals very natural results that last up to three years, providing they are maintained through regular touchup appointments. The Ombre Brow is the perfect technique for creating a natural-looking brow that is tailored to suit each client's needs.

This technique offers bolder and more defined makeup look beautifully shaded to perfection.
