In the past cellulite has been widely interpreted as a fat disorder.
However, recent medical research has discovered that it is in fact
primarily a disease of the circulatory system that deforms the
connective tissue.
It was thought previously that cellulite was caused by obesity, why then
was it found on skinny women? In fact it is found on 95% of woman
today. Although it is the fat bulging upwards that causes the
irregularity in skin appearance, the root cause is thought to be the
weakening of the tiny blood and lymph drainage vessels that maintain a
fresh supply of nutrients in the tissues as well as removing damaging
metabolic by-products.
This results in damage to the connective tissue that shapes the fat
and keeps it from bulging outwards. Although by reducing the fat, one
can reduce the appearance of cellulite, it does not eliminate the cause,
nor does it remove the look.
