Stages of Cellulite

There are different stages of cellulite right from its beginning to its advanced stage. Here is a little description of each stage of cellulite -

Beginning Of Cellulite

At the first stage of the cellulites or at the beginning of it the connective tissues of the body have a soft consistency and are not painful. This is the stage when the mucus invades the tissues. In order to distinguish cellulite from the fatty and the watery overweight the place should be noticed where it appears because it first appears on the inside of thighs and the knees.

Later Stage Of Cellulite

At a later stage pinching the skin becomes painful. It could also produce wrinkles on the skin. Therefore cellulite could be suspected from the badly nourished appearance of the skin, which becomes rough, grayish and cold.

Stage Of Confirmed Cellulite

The cellulite could be confirmed in view of the following symptoms:

• The skin is perceived to be infiltrated as it gives the impression of being composed of the nodules. These nodules, from their firmness and contours, appear to be padded.
• The connective tissues between the skin and the underlying tissues, instead of making for suppleness, become inflamed. As a result it adheres to what is above and below it.
• Thus when the skin is pinched, it adheres to the deep layers by small fibers. There fibers hold down the skin and form small depressions on it.
• Pinching is very painful and it easily causes bruising.
• All this leads to the inflammation of the connective tissues through the action of poisoned lymph that surrounds it.
