The phenomenon of orange peel, also known as orange peel, was commonly known as "honeycomb tissue" in the early days. Dermatological research shows that orange peel is caused by insufficient tension uniformity and strength of subcutaneous connective tissue. Scars are scars, not orange peel tissue.

Both cellulite and connective tissue affect the formation of orange peel tissue, but connective tissue has a greater influence. No matter whether the fat forms lumps or not, if the connective tissue is very dense and strong, orange peel tissue can't be seen by naked eyes. Only the uneven strength and thickness of connective tissue between the dermis and the adipose layer will lead to the phenomenon that the adipose layer protrudes outward to the dermis. When the adipose layer invades the dermis unevenly, it will form a group of limited fat lumps, which has nothing to do with "excess water and poor metabolism of aging waste".

The reason and mechanism of inducing orange peel tissue are not very clear. The main factor is considered to be genetic-orange peel tissue can only be found in women, and it is the mother who inherits her daughter, and the daughter passes it on. It is still uncertain whether it is related to age. To some extent, women are prone to have orange peel tissue, even young women and slim women. Young women may appear after sexual maturity, usually during pregnancy, and most women appear in the early stage of menopause.

A large number of reasons can be caused:

1, endocrine disorders (such as hypothyroidism or pancreatic dysfunction, diabetes);

2. Vascular diseases (atherosclerosis or hypertension); Overweight or tending to be overweight;

3. Incorrect diet, less exercise and unhealthy lifestyle;

4. The pace of life is tense;

5. The urban ecological environment is deteriorating;

6. Take hormonal contraceptives without the supervision of a doctor.
