CELLULITIS

It is the fat pads that are thickly and ugly accumulated under the skin and have the thickness of a thick orange peel. If a person pinches himself in the cellulite area, i.e. the place where this thick fat is, the skin will appear orange.

Cellulite often appears on the outer side of a woman's thigh, but it also appears, albeit rarely, in men. The first to write about this phenomenon was the French doctor Gerard in the thirties of this century. This doctor believed that this phenomenon is a type of rheumatism.

In 1952, the German doctor Humboldt wrote an extensive study on this disease and called it (the disease that is not called a disease), while the famous dermatologist Hennings from the University of Berlin called it orange peel disease because the fat in this area is thick like the thickness of an orange peel and it turns orange when pinched or pressed. He discovered that this phenomenon is the result of a biochemical metabolic disorder in the body for food materials that are of starchy (carbohydrate) origin. Cellulite is not a new phenomenon and this phenomenon has been seen on women's bodies in paintings by the greatest painters of the classical era such as Robinson, and the painting of the famous artist GAUGUIN, which he called Beauties of the South Sea. In this painting, the areas of orange fatty skin appear, which were a symbol of femininity at that time.
