Women searching for the best cellulite removal and reduction treatments to smooth stubborn dimples on the buttocks and thighs now have several options. Avéli sets itself apart by precisely targeting the fibrous bands that pull down on the skin’s surface, creating cellulite’s “cottage cheese” appearance. Dr. Camille Cash is one of the first plastic surgeons in the country to offer this FDA-cleared cellulite treatment at her Houston practice.

One of the primary causes of cellulite is septa—fibrous bands that pull down on the skin and tether it to structures just below the skin’s surface. Avéli is a minimally invasive cellulite treatment for the buttocks and thighs that works by severing the connective tissue bands.
What sets Avéli apart from similar devices is its precision, severing only bands that cause cellulite. Both the buttocks and thighs can be treated during a single appointment.
Prices for Avéli cellulite treatments vary with patient needs. Dr. Cash will create a personalized price quote for you during your consultation after she assesses the number of dimples that require treatment.
By releasing the specific fibrous bands responsible for targeted cellulite dimples, Avéli is highly effective. Unlike many other anti-cellulite treatments, Avéli produces results on buttock and leg cellulite with a single treatment session.
Before beginning, Dr. Cash uses a local anesthetic to numb the treatment area and minimize discomfort during the hour-long procedure. She performs the procedure by sliding the handheld device just beneath the skin’s surface. She then adjusts the depth of the device as needed, guided by a light at the end of the tool. As Dr. Cash moves the device and hooks the band, a blade attached to the tip of the rod severs the septa.
There is no downtime after the treatment, but you can expect to feel sore. Bruising and swelling are the other primary side effects. Bruising is typically milder than seen with other minimally invasive cellulite treatments. During the first 24 to 48 hours after the treatment, you may also notice some clear or pink fluid leak from where the device pierces the skin.
Dr. Cash recommends waiting a few days before exercising or performing strenuous activities after an Avéli treatment to allow your body to heal.
Even though many people associate cellulite with being overweight, that’s not the case. Up to 90% of women have cellulite and many of them are at ideal weights. When the fibrous bands pull down on the skin, fat cells push up and create a dimpled appearance. Avéli, however, doesn’t treat the isolated fat pockets that are often in the areas where cellulite develops. It also doesn’t tighten loose skin.
Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon • ASPS & ASAPS MemberNo matter what procedure you undergo with Dr. Cash, one thing is for certain—it’s all about you. She takes the time to get to know you as more than a patient, creating a treatment plan that’s just the right fit.
Avéli creates smoother skin immediately, although you won’t be able to see the outcome until bruising and swelling subside. You can expect to start seeing improvements to your skin’s texture within 1 month after treatment with full results appearing after 3 months.
Avéli produces long-term results since it addresses the root cause of cellulite. One year after treatment, patients in an early clinical study maintained a decrease in the appearance of their cellulite.
