Cellulite

Cellulite is misshapen fat cells due to restrictive connective tissue. These misshapen fat cells have a tendency to create ripples in the skin, especially in the upper arm, thighs, and abdominal area of women. This skin appearance is often referred to as "cottage cheese". As much as the advertisers for miracle fat creams or fad diet supplements want to tell you otherwise, the presence of cellulite is not a sign of poor health or even obesity. But to understand the truth of cellulite, we have to look closer than skin deep.
Also Cellulite can be defined as lumpy substance that resembles cottage cheese and is commonly found on human parts such as buttocks, stomach and thighs. More specifically, the term is used to describe deposits of any material (generally fats) trapped in pockets of connective tissues that are situated just under the skin. Cosmetically, such condition is responsible for a progressive bulky appearance with creases and layers of fats that are visible even from the distance.
Cellulite is basically a modernized term for collections of the fat that push against the connective tissues those are just located under the skin resulting into dimpling or pucker or appearing like extra tires. One can check such condition by just pinching the skin around the upper thighs. If you pinch and you get some lumpy thing, the body might have cellulite. Cellulite is more common in women as compared to the men especially in the women above 35 years. However, nowadays, it is also getting common in adolescent girls and young women. This condition affects 80% of women and, with the passing of time, progressively worsens and gives rise not only to physical problems, but also to psychological ones as well.
