Aveli® Cellulite Reduction Overview
Avéli® is a breakthrough treatment for women bothered by cellulite dimples, especially on the thighs and buttocks. Unlike temporary or superficial methods, Avéli® directly addresses the internal structures that cause dimpling. With just one in-office procedure, patients see noticeable improvements in skin smoothness without the need for multiple treatments.
How Aveli® Cellulite Reduction Works
Cellulite is caused by fibrous bands called septa that pull down on the skin, creating dimples. During the Avéli® procedure, Dr. Robbins inserts a handheld device beneath the skin to precisely locate and release these bands. This technique eliminates the tethering effect, allowing the skin to appear smoother. The entire process typically takes 1–2 hours depending on the number of treated dimples and is performed under local anesthesia with little to no downtime.

Aveli® Cellulite Reduction vs. Other Treatments
While many cellulite treatments rely on temporary surface-level effects, Avéli® stands out by treating the root cause. Topical creams, massage devices, and energy-based treatments often yield short-term results. In contrast, Avéli® releases septa bands directly under the skin, leading to longer-lasting improvements. Plus, it’s a one-time treatment—no multiple sessions needed—making it more convenient and cost-effective in the long run.

What To Expect Before Aveli® Cellulite Reduction
During your consultation in West Des Moines, we’ll review your medical history, current medications, and cellulite concerns to determine if Avéli® is the right treatment for you. Dr. Robbins and our Des Moines Plastic Surgery team will assess the severity and location of your cellulite and develop a personalized treatment plan based on your goals. We’ll also provide detailed pre-procedure instructions—such as avoiding certain medications or supplements—to help ensure a smooth, safe experience and optimal results.
What To Expect During Aveli® Cellulite Reduction
The Avéli® procedure is performed in our on-site, fully accredited surgical suite under local anesthesia. Once numb, a small handheld device is inserted beneath the skin to target and release the septa bands responsible for cellulite. You may feel some light pressure, but the process is designed for your comfort. Most treatments take between 60–90 minutes, depending on the number of dimples being addressed.
What To Expect After Aveli® Cellulite Reduction
After your Avéli® treatment, you may experience mild bruising, tenderness, or firmness in the treated areas, which typically resolve within a few weeks. Most patients return to normal activities within 24–48 hours. While some improvement is visible immediately, full results are typically seen within 4–6 weeks as swelling and bruising subside. The skin will continue to settle over the first few days, and any discomfort usually fades quickly. With one of the highest success rates among cellulite treatments, Avéli® delivers long-lasting, visible improvement.
