​​Most women (an estimated 85% of us!) are familiar with cellulite, especially cellulite on the legs. Cellulite is that dimply skin that commonly appears on our thighs and other areas of our bodies. It is made up of tightly structured fat cells that push up against our connective tissue, causing our outer skin to pucker and has unsightly dimples.​

Cellulite involves fibrous connective cords that tether the skin to the underlying muscle, with the fat cells of cellulite lying between and pushing up against the skin while the long, tough cords pull down – creating the dimpling effect of cellulite. Appearing on our thighs, hips, stomach, and rear end, extreme cellulite cases can cause the skin to have a contour like cottage cheese – not a great look!​

​​​What causes cellulite?

Unfortunately, little is known about what causes this bane to our appearance. Hormonal factors play a significant role in the development of cellulite, along with genetics that determines our overall skin structure, skin texture, and body type. Muscle tone and weight are also factors, but cellulite doesn’t discriminate – it can affect anyone, no matter how fit or thin she is. There’s no way to prevent cellulite, but you can make changes to your lifestyle (such as adopting regular exercise and a balanced diet) that may help reduce the amount of cellulite you experience.

​

​Is it possible to make cellulite on the legs go away?

Cellulite tends to show up most commonly on our thighs because this area naturally has more fatty tissue. The bad news is that the unique structure of these fat cells makes cellulite harder for the body to break it down and get rid of it. So, do we have to consider thigh cellulite a permanent part of our bodies?

​

Wait.... We have some solution!!
