How Does Avéli® Cellulite Treatment Work?

Avéli® is a minimally invasive treatment that is created to improve the appearance of cellulite dimples from the buttocks and thighs. Besides being the first procedure of its kind, it is also the only approach that successfully resolves cellulite dimples in a single session without invasive surgery.

The Avéli® treatment is performed at our Long Beach office with a specialized device that interacts with tissue bands under your skin that form cellulite dimples. As these bands release within your skin, the dimples that form on its surface reduce and disappear over time. This provides you with smoother, more youthful, and dimple-free skin for your physique.

Cellulite is a depression of any shape or size seen on the surface of the skin, typically on the buttocks or thighs. A major underlying cause of cellulite is the fibrous bands that tether your skin to the structures below. These bands are called septa. Some septa are good (and you want them as connective tethers), but others stiffen or shrink over time and lead to the dimples we see on the surface and call cellulite.

Cellulite can appear at any age and causes the skin to appear bumpy and uneven. It creates unsightly dimples along the otherwise smooth appearance of your skin. While it does not cause any pain, it can affect your daily life by hindering your confidence and making it undesirable to show your thighs or wear tight clothing.

During your treatment session, you can expect to experience the following steps.

  • You will recover in the clinic before going home the same day.
  • You will receive local anesthesia to prevent discomfort and pain during the procedure.
  • Dr. Waltzman will make small incisions into the area of concern to insert the Avéli® cellulite treatment device under your skin.
  • Dr. Waltzman will determine the appearance of tissue or septa bands under your skin that are forming cellulite dimples. These bands will then be released with the Avéli® device.
  • Dr. Waltzman will ensure that your skin looks visibly smoother before he concludes the treatment, removes the device, and tends to your incisions.

Am I a Candidate for Avéli® Cellulite Treatment?

The ideal candidate for Avéli® typically has the following characteristics:

  • Non-smokers or those willing to pause smoking before and after the procedure
  • The appearance of cellulite dimples across the buttocks or thighs
  • Overall good health
  • Expectations of realistic results

What Results Can I Expect from Avéli® Cellulite Treatment?

Avéli® only requires one session to administer the treatment. Most patients do not require a second Avéli® treatment and receive long-lasting results from their first and only treatment session. While the treatment outcome is immediately evident to your Avéli® provider, you may need at least a month for the bruising and tenderness to subside before you can see visible results over the surface of your skin.

As a targeted cellulite treatment in Long Beach, Avéli® specifically resolves cellulite dimples across your areas of concern. However, it does not address skin laxity or excess fat buildup. For those concerns, you can look into body contouring or liposuction procedures, respectively.

What is Recovery Like After Avéli® Cellulite Treatment?

Avéli® has little to no downtime. You can go home right after going through your Avéli® cellulite treatment. However, you may need to rest for 24 to 48 hours after your procedure before resuming your regular activities. Dr. Waltzman can provide you with personalized recommendations on when to start with more strenuous activities, such as exercising.

You may experience pain, bruising, and tenderness along the treatment site. While the pain typically subsides within 24 hours of your treatment, bruising and tenderness may remain for a few weeks (up to 30 days). You may also notice hardened tissue along the treatment site that resolves by itself within a couple of months.
