A Structural Solution to Skin Dimpling

Avéli Cellulite Treatment at Dr. Alexandra Hart Plastic Surgery

Avéli is an innovative, minimally invasive procedure designed to address the structural cause of cellulite:

The septa (bands of connective tissue) that pull the skin downward. This treatment requires precision, anatomical understanding, and thoughtful execution to identify and release these specific fibrous bands.

Dr. Hart’s surgical expertise ensures that cellulite is treated accurately, safely, and with refined, natural results, making it an excellent option for patients seeking a single-session solution for long-lasting improvement in cellulite appearance.

Avéli is performed in a boutique, office-based setting, offering a concierge approach to cellulite correction. Dr. Alexandra Hart pairs board-certified expertise with the Avéli precision device to map and release the fibrous bands responsible for dimpling. We invite you to schedule a private consultation to explore whether Avéli is the right solution for your goals.

Beyond Surface-Level Smoothing

What Is Avéli™ Cellulite Treatment?

Avéli is an FDA-cleared, minimally invasive treatment designed to reduce the appearance of cellulite by addressing its true cause.

Cellulite forms when fibrous bands beneath the skin pull downward, creating visible dimpling on the surface.

The Avéli device allows Dr. Hart to identify and release these bands in real time. Unlike topical treatments or surface-level devices, Avéli directly addresses the structural issue underlying cellulite, resulting in smoother skin contours.

What Is the Avéli™ Procedure Like?

Avéli is performed in an office-based setting with local anesthesia. After numbing the treatment area, Dr. Hart uses the Avéli device to precisely locate the fibrous septae responsible for visible dimpling.

Once identified, these bands are carefully released through a tiny incision. The procedure is guided in real time, allowing for highly targeted correction while minimizing disruption to surrounding tissue. Most treatments are completed in a single session.

Technique Meets Technology

Because the Avéli device provides real-time guidance, Dr. Hart can confirm each fibrous band is fully released before completing the procedure. This level of precision is what distinguishes a structural correction from a surface-level treatment, and it is performed in a single, comfortable session under local anesthesia.

What Conditions Does Avéli™ Address?

Avéli is designed specifically to treat:

  • Moderate to severe cellulite dimpling
  • Structural cellulite caused by fibrous bands
  • Persistent cellulite that is resistant to diet and exercise

Avéli is not a weight-loss or skin-tightening procedure but a targeted solution for cellulite itself.

Correction with Intention

Am I a Candidate for Avéli™?

Ideal candidates are healthy individuals bothered by visible cellulite dimpling, particularly on the buttocks or thighs. Candidates should have realistic expectations and understand that Avéli improves dimpling but does not replace body contouring or skin-tightening procedures.

During your consultation, Dr. Hart will evaluate your skin quality, anatomy, and overall goals to determine whether Avéli or a combination approach would be the best fit for your needs and desired results.

Avéli™ Cellulite Treatment Recovery

Recovery from Avéli is typically mild. Patients may experience temporary bruising, swelling, or soreness in the treated area. Most return to normal activities within a few days.

Detailed aftercare instructions are provided to support healing and optimize your results. Compression garments may be recommended for a short period.

Refines Over Time

Avéli™ Cellulite Treatment Results

Improvements in skin smoothness become noticeable as initial swelling resolves.

These results continue to become more refined over several weeks as the tissue settles. Because Avéli permanently releases the fibrous bands causing cellulite, the results in the treated areas are considered long-lasting.
