What is cellulite?
Cellulite is a condition that is seen especially on the upper legs, hips, arms, and abdomen, affecting the skin and subcutaneous fat layer, causing an orange peel appearance. In cellulite, the fat cells under the skin expand, creating small bulges, and the septa , which are the structures of our connective tissue that are perpendicular to the skin surface and connect our skin to deep tissues, pull these structures down, resulting in an orange peel appearance with indentation .
Why does cellulite occur?
Cellulite is not directly proportional to obesity. Yes, cellulite starts
or intensifies with weight gain, but there is no rule that every fat person will definitely have cellulite. The fact
that cellulite can be seen in thin people also highlights genetic predisposition. However, the rule that a person will have cellulite because their mother or sister has cellulite is also invalid. In other words, cellulite can occur due to various reasons such as genetic predisposition, hormonal fluctuations, sedentary lifestyle, inactivity, not exercising, excessive caffeine consumption, and frequent use of high-heeled shoes.
How is cellulite treated?
Cellulite, which is seen in 80% of women, does not cause any health problems, but it bothers the person cosmetically. It is possible to correct cellulite to a great extent with treatments that you can do at home and receive from professionals. First of all, it will be possible to maintain your weight balance, increase blood flow in the cellulite area with regular walks or movements related to your leg area if you are overweight and reduce cellulite by regulating blood circulation.
