Cellulite is one of the most common concerns among women, yet it can be one of the most frustrating to treat. If you’ve noticed dimpling or uneven texture on your thighs or buttocks that doesn’t improve with diet or exercise, Avéli™ offers a targeted, long-lasting solution. At AW Plastic Surgery in Portsmouth, NH, we offer Avéli as a minimally invasive treatment designed to smooth cellulite at its source so you can feel more confident in your skin.
What is Avéli™?
Avéli is an FDA-cleared, minimally invasive procedure that treats cellulite by targeting the underlying structural cause. Cellulite forms when fibrous bands beneath the skin pull downward, creating a dimpled appearance on the surface.
Avéli works by precisely identifying and releasing these fibrous bands. Using a specialized handheld device, your provider can treat each dimple individually in a single session. By addressing the root cause of cellulite, Avéli delivers smoother, more even-looking skin with long-lasting results.
Who is a Good Candidate for Avéli?
Avéli is ideal for patients who are looking to reduce the appearance of cellulite on the buttocks or thighs. You may be a good candidate if you:
- Are in good overall health
- Are bothered by visible cellulite or dimpling
- Maintain a stable weight
- Prefer a minimally invasive treatment option
- Are not pregnant or breastfeeding
- Have realistic expectations for improvement
During your consultation, our team will evaluate your concerns and determine if Avéli is the right treatment for your goals.
The Avéli Treatment Procedure
Your Avéli treatment will be performed by one of our skilled providers to ensure precision and optimal results. The procedure begins with marking the treatment areas and applying local anesthesia to keep you comfortable.
Using the Avéli device, your provider will gently navigate beneath the skin to locate and release the fibrous bands responsible for cellulite dimpling. Because the device allows for real-time confirmation, each targeted band can be treated with accuracy.
Most treatments take about one hour, depending on the number of dimples being addressed. Avéli is typically performed in a single session, making it a convenient option for patients looking for noticeable improvement without multiple treatments.
Aftercare
After your Avéli treatment, you can expect some temporary side effects as your body heals. These may include mild swelling, bruising, tenderness, or firmness in the treated areas.
To support recovery, we recommend:
- Wearing compression garments if advised by your provider
- Avoiding strenuous activity for a few days
- Keeping the area clean and following post-procedure instructions
Most patients return to normal daily activities within a few days, although mild soreness may persist for a short time.
