3 Surprising Facts About Cellulite

Surprising causes of cellulite

While there is no shortage of news, advice and even ‘miracle cures’ for cellulite online, on TV and in magazines, it would seem that we really don’t know all that much about cellulite.
We know what produces cellulite - or the orange-peel effect on your skin. And we know that reducing body fat, improving circulation and having healthier skin can reduce cellulite’s appearance.

But, considering that over 90% of women have cellulite; that it can affect people of average or even below average weights, and there is no way to ‘get rid of cellulite’ it would seem like we still have a lot to learn about it.

Cellulite Facts

Until then, we’ll have to be satisfied with doing everything we can to reduce cellulite as best we can. Part of that is getting a better understanding of cellulite and the following facts might help you do that.

Cellulite is Not Caused by Toxins

It seems to make perfect sense. All those ‘toxins and impurities’ in the environment and your diet must be responsible for ‘ugly’ cellulite. Except they aren’t. As we said, cellulite is produced by fat cells pushing up against your skin, which can happen in even the most ‘detoxified’ people.

May be More Prevalent in Smokers

Your circulation can have an effect on your cellulite. Increased blood flow brings more nutrients to your skin, which can help tone it and make it firmer. In addition to reducing blood flow, smoking is also linked to decreased collagen production. Collagen gives your skin strength and elasticity, which can also help to make your cellulite look better.

Too Tight Underwear can make Cellulite Worse

Tight elastic bands on under clothing, or any very tight clothing, can cut off circulation and restrict blood flow, which can make your cellulite appear worse.


If there is another ‘surprising’ fact about cellulite it is that it is not a simple thing. You can’t brush it away, ‘cure’ it or otherwise get rid of it. but you can do something about it. The massaging action of anti-cellulite Mass & Slim shapewear helps improve your circulation and is clinically proven to reduce the appearance of cellulite.
