Cottage Cheese Thighs Please

One of the things that a lot of women are very self-conscious about having is cellulite. What is cellulite? When fluid becomes trapped inside the collagen fibers under the skin, the result is a bumpy, puckering appearance in the skin that is unflattering. In some cases it can be genetic, in others it's the result of excess weight and sometimes it can develop from both sources. But how do you get rid of it?

Your diet and exercise routine can play a big part in diminishing that awful cottage cheese look. Simply by adding more muscle to your legs and buttocks will help the skin look and feel firmer.  Begin a workout routine of low weight combined with high repetition to build muscle in those specific areas.  By utilizing lower weights and a higher rep count, you will be more inclined to losing the fatty pockets in those regions while not bulking up and looking heavier. The more muscle you build, the looser those fibrous bands become and are able to squeeze out the little fat pockets that create the dimpling cheesy look in your skin.  

Cellulite Creams are products that usually contain caffeine to stimulate blood flow and help to flush the excess fluids that build up. These only temporarily plump the skin with moisture to give you a smoother look.

Cellulite surgery is an extreme option for ridding the body of those nasty fat pockets that are puckering your backside.  There are several methods that range from the non-invasive to the completely radical. Liposuction of the back of the thighs and buttocks is probably the one most commonly requested while the lower body lift is quite drastic. If you're contemplating surgery at all, it should only be considered as a last resort to other non-surgical methods first.
