A Few Points on Cellulite

Cellulite on Leg

Cellulite is a term that is used to describe fat deposits under the skin and because it is very close to the surface, the fat gives the skin a dimpled, or orange-peel like appearance
Collagen fibers that connect fat to the skin may stretch, break down, or pull tight, allowing the fat cells to bulge out. This creates the rippled look of cellulite.
Cellulite does not usually affect men and does not usually appear in women until they are at least a teenager. The appearance of cellulite increases with age in females.
Cellulite shows on the buttocks, the thighs and hips. This problem is one of degree. Some woman have more than others, and the appearance is more noticeable on some women
Cellulite is predetermined by genetics so even thin women can develop the appearance.
Factors such as hormones, pregnancy, and aging may all attribute to the weakening of the collagen fibers to give the cellulite appearance.
