Confused About Which
Cellulite Cream Or Lotion To Buy?
So you've got cellulite! What are you going to do about it?
You only have a few options to choose for combating cellulite:
- Surgery
- Topical Lotions
- Creams
Before you buy do your homework first.
Cellulite is not a different kind of fat, but it can be more
visible than fat deeper in the body. Even thin people can have
cellulite, because we all have layers of fat just below the
surface of the skin. Collagen fibers that connect fat to the skin
may stretch, break down, or pull tight, allowing the plump fat
cells to bulge out. This creates the rippled look of cellulite.
Definition: Cellulite is fat that is deposited in pockets just
below the surface of the skin. It occurs around the hips, thighs,
and buttocks. Given how close cellulite is to the surface of the
skin, it creates a dimpled appearance in those areas of the body.
Cellulite affects 85-98% of females of all races. While not a
pathologic condition, it remains an issue of cosmetic concern to a
great number of individuals. Despite its high prevalence, there
have been few scientific investigations into the physiology of
cellulite.
