Aveli/ Cellulite Treatment

Because it’s performed under local anesthesia, you’ll remain awake but relaxed throughout, and the targeted area will be completely numbed to prevent pain. You may feel slight pressure or movement during the procedure, but there shouldn’t be any sharp discomfort. Afterward, you might experience some soreness, tenderness, or bruising similar to what you’d feel after a deep tissue massage—but it typically subsides within a few days.

One of the biggest advantages of Aveli is its efficiency. Unlike other cellulite treatments that require multiple sessions with gradual results, Aveli is designed to work in just one appointment. This single in-office procedure enables Dr. Groves to target and release the fibrous bands beneath the skin that cause visible dimpling, resulting in a smoother, firmer appearance without the need for repeated visits.

While follow-up appointments may be scheduled to monitor healing or address any additional aesthetic goals, most patients see noticeable improvement after their first treatment. It’s a game-changer for those who are tired of maintenance-heavy options and want something that delivers real results—fast.

Most patients begin to notice visible improvement in their skin texture within just a few weeks after the Aveli procedure. As swelling and bruising subside, the treated areas gradually smooth out, revealing a firmer, more even skin surface. Final results typically develop over the course of one to three months, as the skin continues to heal and settle into its new, dimple-free shape.

The beauty of Aveli lies not just in how quickly it works, but how long the results last. Because it addresses the structural cause of cellulite at its source, patients often enjoy smoother skin for years to come, with no ongoing treatments required. With proper care and a healthy lifestyle, your results can be both impressive and enduring.

Absolutely. Many patients choose to pair it with body contouring procedures, such as liposuction or non-surgical skin tightening, for a more sculpted and refined look. Others opt to include it in a broader rejuvenation plan that may include treatments for stretch marks, loose skin, or volume loss. During your consultation, Dr. Groves will assess your goals and help you create a personalized plan tailored to your body, lifestyle, and timeline.

Common side effects include temporary bruising, swelling, tenderness, or firmness in the treated area. These typically resolve within a few days to a couple of weeks. There is also a small risk of dimpling, pigmentation changes, or asymmetry, though these issues are uncommon and often correctable with proper care.

To minimize your risk and ensure the best possible outcome, Dr. Groves takes every precaution during treatment and provides thorough aftercare instructions tailored to your needs. He will also review your medical history and current health to determine if Aveli is the safest and most effective option for you.
