About 90% of women have cellulite, which is characterized by lumpy deposits of fat that lie just beneath the surface of the skin. Cellulite appears most often on the hips, buttocks, thighs, and upper arms.
Although many find cellulite personally undesirable, it is harmless and not an indication of good or bad health habits. The tendency to have cellulite may be genetic; even people with normal or low body weight may get cellulite.
