Wikipedia

  1. Cellulite

    Cellulite is the herniation of subcutaneous fat within fibrous connective tissue that manifests as skin dimpling and nodularity, often on the pelvic region (specifically the buttocks), lower limbs, and abdomen. Cellulite occurs in most postpubescent females. A review gives a prevalence of 85–98% of women, indicating that it is physiological rather than pathological. It can result from a complex combination of factors ranging from hormones to heredity.

  1. cellulite

    Cellulite is a term used to describe the dimpled or lumpy appearance of skin, often found on the buttocks, thighs, and hips, caused by the protrusion of subcutaneous fat into the dermis creating an undulating dermal-fat interface. It is more common in women than in men due to differences in the way fat, muscle, and connective tissue are distributed in men's and women's skin. Although cellulite can affect individuals of all sizes and shapes, it can become more visible with age, weight gain, and physical inactivity.
