Understanding Cellulite
- Cellulite is a common skin condition where the skin appears dimpled or lumpy, typically found on the thighs, buttocks, hips, and abdomen. It occurs when fat cells push through connective tissue beneath the skin, causing an uneven surface.
- Cellulite affects up to 90% of women (and some men), regardless of body weight. It’s not a sign of poor health but can impact confidence and body image.
- Caused by fat pushing against fibrous bands under the skin.
- Appears as “orange peel” or “cottage cheese” texture.
- Common after puberty, pregnancy, or weight fluctuations.
