What Causes "Cellulite"?

Disorders of the microcirculatory systems are involved in the development of cellulite. Altered blood and lymph circulation causes structural changes in subcutaneous fat tissue and the surrounding collagen fibers. Fat lobes grow and cellulite develops because of slowed blood and lymph flow through subcutaneos tissue.

Its is estimated that dimpled, "orange peel" skin condition commonly referred to as "cellulite" plagues over 80% of the adult female population. Scientific medical research indicates that certain physical and physiologic changes produce capillary and circulating abnormalities in the superficial fatty tissues which are responsible for the development of the following cellulite-related conditions:

• Interstitial edema
• Fat hypertrophy
• Lipolymphedema

The Four Stages of Cellulite

There are four distinct stages that define cellulite conditions. Diagnosing your stage accurately will help your doctor develop an effective MD2000 treatment program for you:

Stage One: Cellulite can be characterized by a "jiggly", loose appearance and may be accompanied by slightly visible "orange peel" when standing.

Stage Two: Is indicated by visible dimpling and an "orange peel" appearance on the skin's surface.

Stage Three: Is characterized by a cottage cheese appearance and visible lumps under the skin's surface.

Stage Four: Cellulite is characterized by a mattress-like appearance of the skin's surface and larger lumps under the surface which can be very painful to touch.
