What is Cellulite
Eighty per cent of women over the age of 20, regardless of their weight or size, are affected by cellulite. Lean women, average weight women and heavier women are all susceptible to this condition.
What Causes Cellulite?
Cellulite occurs when fat cells in the hypodermis (the deepest layer of skin) become over-inflated from an increase in fat storage. The fat cells protrude up through the connective tissue causing dimpling or a "cottage cheese" appearance.
