Water cellulite (a.k.a. hard) is a type of cellulite associated with water retention in the body. It is not related to being overweight and can occur in people with normal weight. One way of dealing with this problem is through specialist cellulite reduction treatments supported by home care.
Water cellulite - causes
Hard cellulite is the result of excessive water accumulation in the body. It is caused by a sedentary lifestyle and lack of sufficient physical activity, as well as by regularly wearing clothes that are too tight. The development of water cellulite is also favoured by stimulants (alcohol, smoking) and incorrect diet, rich in salt and sugar. In some patients, the cause of cellulite is hormonal disorders or the use of certain medications.
Water cellulite - symptoms
Water cellulite is only visible when touching the skin folds as bulges and thickening. This is in contrast to fatty cellulite, which is even visible without pressing the skin. In addition, in people with water cellulite in the problem area, the skin may be dry and rough.

There are many ways to combat cellulite. Potentially the greatest benefits are provided by professional cellulite removal treatments, e.g. with laser devices.
