Cellulite is a cosmetic condition that mostly affects women. It produces a dimpled skin that often resembles orange peel or cottage cheese and is generally found on the thighs, legs, buttocks and abdomen. Cellulite can occur in thin as well as overweight women. The causes are thought to be hormonal and genetic but diet and lifestyle may also be contributing factors. Women seeking anti cellulite treatment may believe that Liposuction, a surgical procedure for body contouring, will effectively remove their cellulite. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Liposuction is a surgical procedure for the removal of deep fat, rather than cellulite which is close to the skin. Fortunately there are highly effective and noninvasive cellulite reduction treatment options. View some cellulite before and after photos here.
