Q

Why are older people more susceptible to cellulite?

A

As we age our skin gets thinner, making the cellulite more visible, tone and collagen decrease making the skin less firm andloose allowing more adipocytes to press toward the skin surface. Our bodies become less efficient in dealing with the removal of waste products and circulation may also decrease as well as the body fat mass getting higher.
