Despite being incredibly common, cellulite can be a common insecurity for many women. So, let’s dive deeper into what cellulite really is and how Aveli™ can renew your body and, more importantly, your confidence.
What is Cellulite?
Cellulite is a skin condition that presents itself in an uneven texture that resembles dimples. It is a common condition that is caused by fat deposits pushing through the connective bands (septae) that bind your skin to your body. For women, these connective bands tend to run vertically beneath the skin, which can make the “dimpling” effect more pronounced when fat presses against it. Alternatively, while men can experience cellulite, it is more rare as this connective tissue forms a crisscross pattern, distributing the fat more evenly. Other influential factors in women such as hormonal changes, overall fat distribution, and skin thickness further determine the severity of cellulite.
How to Treat Cellulite
While cellulite is physically harmless, it can negatively impact many people’s confidence, so it’s understandable why many search for ways to treat it. Alongside maintaining a balanced diet, regular exercise, and proper hydration, incorporating at-home remedies like manual massage and creams containing caffeine or retinol might help soften the connective tissue and enhance skin texture for a smoother and more even appearance. However, the best way to achieve noticeable results is through medical-grade body treatments like Aveli™.
What is the Aveli™ Treatment?
Aveli™ is a FDA-approved, minimally invasive cellulite treatment designed specifically for women. Unlike other solutions that offer more short-term benefits, Aveli™ functions as a long-term solution in minimizing the appearance of cellulite in the legs and buttocks of women. Depending on the severity of a person’s cellulite, this treatment can be easily customized to deliver exactly what you need.
How Does the Aveli™ Treatment Work?
Aveli™ expertly diminishes cellulite’s appearance at the root cause of the problem: the dimples themselves. Aveli™ smooths out the skin by delicately releasing the tension in the skin through the manual severing of the septae for a more even texture. This can also be paired with procedures like liposuction, working together to improve fat distribution and softer connective tissue for even more dramatic results.
What are the Benefits of an Aveli™ Treatment?
Aveli’s benefits are what make it a popular treatment choice. Unlike other treatments that require multiple sessions, Aveli™ is a one-time procedure with results that can last for years. It’s performed under local anesthesia, allowing for minimal downtime, and patients can usually resume daily activities within a few days. With FDA clearance and precision targeting, this treatment effectively reduces cellulite in the buttocks and thighs while preserving surrounding tissue.
Who is the Best Candidate for the Aveli™ Treatment?
Ultimately, the best candidate for the Aveli™ treatment is someone who is able to maintain a healthy weight and meets the treatment’s required skin quality. It is also important that the candidate understands that Aveli™ will treat the appearance of cellulite, and does not function as a treatment for loose skin or fat reduction. If you have additional questions about whether you may be the right fit, schedule a consultation with the Centre for Plastic Surgery to find out more.
What is the Recovery Process of an Aveli™ Treatment?
Everyone’s recovery process is different, and the Centre for Plastic Surgery guarantees support every step of the way. Typically, the first 24 to 48 hours can be uncomfortable, but over-the-counter pain medication and ice can greatly reduce the discomfort. Within a week, you’ll come back to the clinic for a follow-up appointment to ensure that your body is healing well.
It’s also important to consistently wear a compression garment during the first three weeks to minimize bruising and swelling. Most patients witness the change in their skin’s texture a couple of weeks after their treatment, once the body has had enough time to recover from the procedure.
