According to dermatologist Marnie Nussbaum, more than 90 percent of women will experience cellulite at some point in their lives. Nussbaum explains that cellulite occurs when underlying fat cells — usually in the thighs, hips, or butt — press against the tight fibrous bands, called septae, that connect muscles to the skin.
