Q
Cellulite
A
is the dimpled-looking skin that commonly occurs in the thigh region.
It forms when fatty tissue deep in the skin pushes up against connective tissue.
> 85% of all women 21 years and older have cellulite.
It’s not as common in men.
The best way to overcome ‘cellulite’ is to keep to ideal weight.
If overweight, lose it slowly and exercise to improve the muscle tone in the buttocks and thighs.
