Cellulite refers to deposits of body fat, especially
on the buttocks, legs, and thighs. Found more on men than women,
due to the genetic make up of the female hormones, even those
with a slim figure often complain about cellulite external visible
symptoms — its lumpy, dimpled.
Cellulite appears in the subcutaneous level of skin
tissue especially on the hips, buttocks and legs. As water is
retained, fat cells held within the perimeters of tissues called
septre expand and stretch the connective tissue. Eventually the
tissue contracts and hardens (sclerosis) holding the skin at a
non-flexible length and at the same time, the surrounding tissue
continues to expand with weight, or water gain. This makes areas
of the skin being held down while other sections bulge outward,
resulting in the lumpy, 'cottage-cheese' appearance.
People with more body fat tend to have more problems
with cellulite. However, being overweight does not cause cellulite
commonly, but maintaining weight does help improve its appearance.
