Cellulite is the appearance of an unattractive dimpled skin or dimpled fat on or around the outer thighs, buttocks and other body areas where large areas of fat come are found in close proximity to the skin. Women are more affected by cellulite formation than men, especially on the thighs, exemplified by the women in the John Paul Rubens painting to the right.
Cellulite formations start in puberty in women as hormones change.
Most women overage 18 have some degree of cellulite. A person does not have to be overweight to develop this dimpled skin called cellulite and cellulite is not always reduced by weight loss. The scientific theory of cellulite is that the skin's underlying supports called fibrous septae do not hold the skin together evenly and this uneven support causes the in the irregular bulging and dimples. The skin is tethered down by string-like tissues that pull it inward, toward the interior of the body. The tension of these strings pulls sections of fat in along with them.
