Mischa Barton's 'dimples' cause ripples in Australia

Mischa Barton, 22, can't be too thrilled about those pap photos of her in Australia that show what looks to be a rather severe case of cellulite.

And she's speaking out about it. "Every woman has cellulite. I've never claimed to have a perfect body. I eat healthy, I work out. I feel very comfortable. I come from a European family that's always very comfortable with their bodies. You are what you are as a woman."

Of photographer Jamie Fawcett's photos:  "He's a ridiculous human being. I've never abhorred anyone more. I was so angry, I went up to him and said how disappointed I was with his behavior. He apologized, but he was very insincere."

Jeez, if I were her, I'd be more upset about how few reports mention that she's topless in the offending photos.

You know women are very sentitive when it comes to their bodies. The comments about cellulites and what Mischa's body looks like in a young age. Some women develope cellulites in a early stage of there lives. I give Mischa props and respect her for being real and happy in her own body, when some women don't and live life miserable. Next time look at yourself before you comment something so cruel as this.

I comend any actress who embraces their "curves." But she doesn't have a lot of curves - she's still very thin. Mischa's also says in the OK magazine where she denounces the photos that she is 5'9" and wears a size 4. that is not normal or typical. Maybe she feels she has curves but I would be more supportive if someone who is not typical or average in weight (and in relation to their height), claim that they are curvy.

In the case of Mischa Barton, this is a 22 year old woman with very severe cellulite. This certainly shows women can develop cellulite at any age and more so, it really demonstrates thin women have the worst cellulite. Many are conditioned to think cellulite only affects those who are overweight. Cellulite does not discriminate with weight. But soon you will read stories referring to her as having “thunder thighs and being overweight”. These titles are absurd and have nothing to do with cellulite.

All this media attention of Ms. Barton’s cellulite must serve as a great source of emotional distress. She claims to live a healthy life style which includes regular exercise. This certainly illustrates that a healthy lifestyle is not enough to get rid of cellulite. Diet and exercise will help prevent cellulite from progressing to grade three but will not eliminate it. Mischa has to be careful about dieting to get rid of her cellulite. She is already very thin and dieting can make her appear anorexic. Ms. Barton’s severe Grade ll cellulite can easily be treated with Mesotherapy.

Pioneering the use of Mesotherapy in the U.S. to combat cellulite, Dr. Lionel Bissoon has helped thousands of women experience cellulite-free legs and buttocks. Complete with case studies, before-and-after photos and straightforward advice, his new book, "The Cellulite Cure" offers hope to cottage cheese thighs everywhere.

Did you guys not see the link in meeshhead's May 9 comment? Those photos (and you can zoom in by clicking on them) show her legs and behind and clearly show she doesn't have the phony advanced case of cellulite.
