STUBBORN FAT POCKETS
Targeting Recalcitrant Fat in the Thighs, Belly, Arms, Back, and Bra Line
Â
Certain body parts can retain stubborn fat pockets that won’t go away, even with consistent exercise and a healthy diet. Particularly in women, common areas such as the back, bra line, thighs, upper arms, and tummy are genetically predisposed to accumulating fat. These bulges can cause physical discomfort like chafing or limited movement, as well as affect how you look in clothing and your confidence.
Â
Rasa Derm provides non-surgical and minimally invasive body contouring options that are safe, effective, and tailored to your specific needs because we recognize that exercise alone cannot reduce fat in specific areas.
Several factors influence the distribution of fat:
- Hormones, such as insulin, cortisol, and estrogen
- Genetics
- Slower metabolism and aging
- Body changes during pregnancy or after giving birth
- Loss of muscle tone or a sedentary lifestyle
including why fat tends to build up there and why losing weight is so challenging.
The hardest fat to shed is frequently belly fat, which might be:
- Subcutaneous fat is located directly beneath the skin.
- Visceral fat: The deeper, riskier fat that envelops internal organs
Typical reasons include:
- Increased cortisol levels brought on by stress cause the abdomen to store fat.
- Insulin resistance brought on by PCOS or an unhealthy diet
- Changes following pregnancy, such as strained skin and muscles
- Weak core muscles and bad posture make the belly stand out more.
- Even in physically fit people, belly fat may persist since abdominal exercises may not remove fat cells, even while they increase tone.
Bra fat can pour over the sides of tight bras or garments and manifests as a roll or bulge around the bra strap area. This fat is particularly obstinate because
- Weak back and shoulder muscles
- Age-related changes in hormones or genetics cause skin laxity and decreased collagen.
- Poor lymphatic drainage results in uneven curves and puffiness.
- Many people experience this because of localized fat and loose skin, even if their BMI is healthy.
Particularly in women, upper arm fat can show up as soft, drooping fat on the back of the arms. This condition is frequently made worse by:
- As we age, our skin becomes less elastic.
- Insufficient triceps strength training
- After losing weight, skin laxity
- Changes in hormones, especially during menopause
- Treatments that target both fat reduction and skin tightening may be necessary in this area because it frequently combines fat buildup with skin laxity.
Back fat can gather around the mid-back, just above the waist (flank area), or around the shoulder blades (upper back rolls). Among the contributing elements are:
- Poor posture or inactivity that results in weak muscular tone
- high percentage of body fat, especially in the thoracic area
- Tight apparel that accentuates protuberance
- hormonal impact, particularly abnormalities in cortisol and estrogen
- Back fat frequently goes unnoticed until it gets painful in bras or shapewear or clearly alters how clothes fit.
While the outer thighs frequently produce “saddlebags,” the inner thighs may develop fat that rubs or chafes. Toning this area is infamously challenging because:
- Lower body fat storage caused by estrogen
- Patterns of genetic fat distribution
- Decreased skin stiffness and collagen
- Absence of exercises for the lower body
- For smoothing and sculpting, a combination technique is necessary because fat in this area frequently coexists with minor skin laxity and poor circulation.
