cellulite

[southportram]

can men get cellutlite? somone told me they can't can anyone explain?

[ummmm]

Yes they can. It's just not very common in men so I would presume that it has something to do with hormones.

[notfrom-oz]

men have thicker skin than women,it was on t.v so its defenatly true

[goldilocks24]

they can if they get really big or flabby skin but in general men dont get cellulite because they have different hormones to women - there is a certain type of hormone women get that causes cellulite if they dont exercise/drink plenty of water or eat correctly!! i hope i am a man in my next life!!!!

Hmmm, i dont believe men can get cellulite. Its a woman thing. Its been scientifically proven...

[PinkFizz]

Yes they can get it - I have seen it with my own eyes! lol

Of course men can get cellulite! I found this source:

Fat by any other name is still fat. Everyone, whether old or young, curvaceous or slim, has fat cells under their skin. Cellulite occurs as these fat cells swell and the surrounding fibrous tissue changes in texture, causing a pulling effect and giving the skin a dimpled look.

Hormonal changes also contribute to cellulite, which partly explains why women are more prone to it, and genes are thought to play a part. Cellulite appears largely on the thighs and bottoms, but can be found on the inner knees, hips, lower abdomen and under the arms.

Of course they do, they just would NEVER call it that!

yes they can but not as common.
women are more prone to cellulite because our skin has more elasticity as we need our skin to stretch so we can carry babies.
