Avéli Cellulite Treatment in New Orleans, LA
Cellulite isn’t about fat—it’s about structure. That’s why creams and massages rarely work long-term. Avéli is a modern, minimally invasive solution that targets cellulite at its root: the fibrous bands under the skin that pull downward and create dimples.
At the MODERN, Avéli is offered as a procedure for patients in New Orleans and Metairie who want smoother thighs or buttocks without repeat visits or recovery downtime. Just one session, and those persistent dimples begin to release.
Avéli is a handheld, FDA-cleared device that allows providers to identify and precisely release the septa—those fibrous bands under the skin responsible for cellulite dimpling. By cutting these tethers, the skin is freed, creating a smoother, more even appearance.
Unlike superficial treatments that temporarily improve texture, Avéli works below the skin’s surface, where cellulite forms. The result is a noticeable, natural-looking improvement in contour without the need for repeat sessions or maintenance.
Avéli is performed as an add-on treatment to other body contouring procedures like a thigh lift, tummy tuck, or liposuction. Dr. Walters makes a few tiny entry points, or uses the existing surgical incision, to insert the Avéli device beneath the skin, locating and releasing the septa that are pulling down and creating dimples. Avéli enhances the results of other procedures by addressing stubborn cellulite dimples for a smooth, firm look.
Avéli is specifically designed to treat cellulite dimpling—not skin laxity or excess fat. It’s ideal for:
Avéli is FDA-cleared for use on the buttocks and thighs, which are the most common and visible areas affected by cellulite. Treatment can be customized depending on the number and location of dimples.
Avéli stands out because it delivers durable results with minimal intervention. Key benefits include:
You may be a good candidate for Avéli if you:
If your concern is more related to skin sagging or uneven fat distribution, other treatments, such as liposuction or skin tightening, may be more suitable. We’ll walk through all your options at your consultation.
Recovery from Avéli is relatively quick. You might notice mild bruising or tenderness for a few days to a week. Most patients return to daily activities within 24–48 hours. We may recommend avoiding intense workouts for a week and wearing a supportive garment to minimize swelling.
There are no stitches and no prolonged downtime—just straightforward healing and real results.
You’ll begin to notice smoother contours as early swelling fades, usually within a few weeks. Since Avéli targets the actual structural cause of cellulite, the results are long-lasting. In some cases, an additional treatment may be recommended for optimal cellulite reduction. Dr. Walters will guide you on the best treatment plan for your individual needs.
As your skin adjusts to its new shape, the treated areas will feel and look more even, making it easier to wear what you want with quiet confidence.
