Average Body With Cellulite To Fitness Competitor W/ Low Fat % High Muscle Mass, What Happens To Cellulite?

I have a little bit of cellulite. I’m noticing that’s it has been getting progressively worse this past year (I’m 19). I know that there is no cure for cellulite, and I’ve heard about endermology and whatnot.
I know for sure that diet and exercise improve the appearance of cellulite but cannot get rid of it.
My question is this: What about women who become fitness competitors? If you become extremely lean from proper dieting and strength training / cardio (I’m NOT talking about crash diets and eating disorders) how much improvement will one see in cellulite?
I’d think that when a fitness competitor becomes very lean with a low body fat percentage and high muscle mass, that this would GREATLY decrease cellulite. Am I correct?
I’m not thinking about becoming a fitness competitor, btw.

    I believe cellulite is caused by over abundance of fat cells and over enlarged fat cells. We make fat cells to store extra energy we consume. Most often it’s the carbohydrates and fats that we consume that get stored as fat cells.
    if you lose fat weight, the cellulite should go away. diet and excercise will help get rid of the chunks. the fat cells will still be the same size, just empty, so they will come back if the regimine stops.
