cellulite correction
Cellulite is a cosmetic skin concern involving areas of dimpled skin that most often appear on the thighs, hips, buttocks and abdomen. This condition affects nearly 8 out of 10 women over the age of 20, as well as some men. Women more commonly develop cellulite because of the way that fat is distributed in the lower half of the body. Cellulite may also develop as a result of a loss of skin elasticity that comes with aging, and from stress or weight gain.
Patients with cellulite may notice areas of bumpy, dimpled skin that resembles cottage cheese, which is actually caused by an accumulation of fat deposits under the skin that distorts its appearance.
While not of medical concern, many people are bothered by the appearance of cellulite, and may feel self-conscious about wearing shorts or a bathing suit. Fortunately, there are some treatments available to reduce the appearance of cellulite and help patients restore smooth, beautiful skin.
