Despite having become the norm, the term cellulite is mistakenly used to describe a regional hypodermic dystrophy almost exclusive to the female population, which can be associated or not with gynoid-type obesity, and which affects the region of the hips, buttocks, lower limbs and, less frequently, the abdomen and the lateral-posterior face of the arms. It has genetic and constitutional factors that predispose an individual to the condition, factors to which multiple complex and interrelated etiologies are part of the equation. Cellulite, or gynoid lipodystrophy (GLD) in its various degrees is extremely common among females, with onset typical between the ages of 15 and 45 years, corresponding to a woman's reproductive phase. About 95% of women will present some degree of cellulite at some point in life. 1
