Cellulite Facts

Fact: Cellulite is not just fat.
Cellulite is malformed, trapped fat located in the first subcutaneous layer. Unlike regular fat, cellulite is highly resistant to exercise and dietings. This is because cellulite fat is trapped in a mesh-like fibrous connective tissue.


Fact: Cellulite is not a condition dependant on how much you weigh.
Thin people are not immune to cellulite. It can even almost anyone, even those who exercise regularly.


Fact: Cellulite can affect people of any age.
In most people, the appearance of cellulite worsens with age. This does not mean, however, that younger people do not get cellulite. Indeed, cellulite often starts to develop at a young age. Left untreated, this condition worsens in appearance as the person ages.


Fact: Cellulite can appear in many different locations.
While most forms of cellulite occurs on the thighs and buttocks, in some people, it also occurs on the upper arm, the back of the neck, and stomach.
