Collagen is responsible for the healthy condition of the connective tissues in your skin.

A reduction in the levels of your collagen will result in the deterioration of your skin condition and this will also affect your cellulite as cellulite is caused by a combination of the fat cells and the condition of your connective tissues.

When there are structural changes that affect the subcutaneous fat tissue and the collagen fibers, the skin becomes dimpled as those collagen fibers draw in the anchor points to the skin.

As we age these collagen fibers change and in doing so increase the incidence of cellulite.

For this reason, there is no time like the present to get started reducing your cellulite before it becomes more difficult to do so.

It is never too late to make positive progress towards eliminating your cellulite, but the sooner you get started the easier it will be to reduce your cellulite and keep your skin in a healthier condition as you age.

Over time these small changes that you have made towards improving your skin and reducing your cellulite will have a compound and lasting effect that will give you better results than any yo-yo dieting could ever achieve.

There are a few different ways to increase and strenghten the level of collagen in your skin. Collagen injections are becoming increasingly popular, but a slightly less painful way is to take collagen supplements and/or use a collagen gel or lotion.
