However, the word cellulite literally means “inflammation of the subcutaneous tissue.” But in fact, the problem is the result of the projection of deeper structures on the surface of the skin, like the fibrous septa. Septa is a kind of division or lock, which connects the surface to deeper tissues, causing the holes or depressions, (orange peel) in the skin, characteristic of cellulite’s they become even more evident when there is an increase in the volume of these areas or by weight gain (accumulation of body fat), either by withholding liquids. These aren’t inflammation of the hypodermis (the deepest layer of skin) responsible for these changes.
