Cellulite is a common and often frustrating aesthetic concern. The issue is generally thought to be the result of fibrous bands (or “septa”) that tighten and pull against the skin, creating the “dimpled” effect that some patients dislike.* Because cellulite is not fatty tissue, it cannot be eliminated through weight loss, diet, exercise, or even surgical procedures that target excess fat.
Thankfully, a potential remedy exists in Avéli™ – one of the first non-surgical options designed specifically to address cellulite. Continue reading to learn more about how our award-winning Sacramento plastic surgeon can enhance your appearance with Avéli™!
What Are the Benefits of Avéli™?
The unique Avéli™ treatment can offer benefits such as:
- Significant reduction of cellulite in the thighs, buttocks, and elsewhere
- Enhanced confidence in the body
- A typically quick and minimally-invasive process
- Generally immediate and long-lasting effects
- Little to no downtime required
What Does the Avéli™ Procedure Entail?
On the day of the Avéli™ procedure, your provider will mark the treatment area and administer a local anesthetic for your comfort. Through a tiny incision, we will insert the small, specialized device under your skin. The handheld applicator was designed to precisely target and release the septa – or the fibrous bands that cause cellulite – without the need for surgery or downtime.
What Are the Typical Results of Avéli™?
Patients usually notice a reduction in cellulite immediately after a single Avéli™ session. The results can last for many years. Side effects like tenderness, swelling, and bruising may be present for a few weeks, but these are typically not severe or cause for concern.
