Maintaining fitness and a healthy lifestyle is a far more important concern than the odd wobble, but if the thought of cellulite makes you anxious or your cellulite makes you unhappy, then here's what you could try to help yourself. It usually starts to form during puberty, but it's not always noticeable at that age, as skin tends to be suppler. No, it's exactly the same as other fat in the body. It is subcutaneous fat, which simply means 'under the skin'.
Women have more body fat than men, especially around the hips and thighs.
Unfortunately there's little or nothing you can do to prevent cellulite. Most women have cellulite - even thin ones. There are a number of creams available, which claim to reduce cellulite, but these have not been proven to work. These often contain seaweed, ginko biloba, green tea extracts or other ingredients, usually intended to stimulate the circulation. Splash out on these by all means, just don't expect miracles, although you may notice an improvement in the texture and firmness of your skin which is probably due to the massaging action you use.
