Maybe that's why, at the slightest hint of cellulite on your arms, thighs, or buttocks, you start to feel self-conscious and put those bikinis, shorts, and skirts you love so much in the back of your closet.
The skin is the first barrier, the first sign that you are a healthy person and that you take care of your physical appearance. Maybe that's why, at the slightest hint of cellulite on your arms, thighs, or buttocks, you start to feel self-conscious and put those bikinis, shorts, and skirts you love so much in the back of your closet. . If you are going through a similar situation, don't be afraid; you are not alone, and there are innovative solutions, such as the Avéli cellulite treatment in Miami.
Even if this aesthetic problem does not threaten your health, it is perfectly understandable that it damages the perception you build of yourself on a daily basis. Icon Cosmetic Surgery is definitely your best option since we combine Avéli, an FDA-approved treatment, with other surgical procedures, such as Lipo and the Brazilian Butt Lift or BBL, to offer you increasingly complete and harmonious results.
What is Avéli?
This innovative practice takes its name from the instrument used to identify and release the fat bands that cause cellulite, all with real-time confirmation of the success of the treatment, which is also minimally invasive, requiring only one visit to the operating room and the use of a local sedative if performed by its own.
The device has a hook, a retractable blade near the tip, and a small light that allows the surgeon to confirm the exact location of the cuts and release the tension of the so-called partitions that pull under the skin as the fat pushes upward, creating precisely those depressions and bulges characteristic of cellulite.
In the hands of our clinic's specialists, the Avéli is incredibly precise because it does not cause any deterioration in the surrounding tissue, which obviously reduces the recovery time and possible sequelae, typical of other cellulite treatments, in which the skin takes much longer to regain its smooth and uniform texture.
The Avéli treatment process
This procedure, approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration), includes a series of well-calculated and precise steps that begin with a careful evaluation by your physician, who must also mark you in a standing position, at rest, and with the muscles contracted to define in detail every depression of the skin, whether linear, circular, irregular, superficial or deep.
Once this marking is done and the patient is anesthetized, the surgeon proceeds to insert the device through a small incision or hole in the upper thigh and, with the help of the small light on the tip of the scalpel, release the band of partitions that affect each area. He will then verify that there is no binding between the fibrous bands of superficial tissue, which also helps to have a much more controlled bleeding and to make the dimpling disappear entirely and permanently.
Benefits of the Avéli cellulite treatment
While other cellulite reduction procedures require constant maintenance, the Avéli is emerging as a much more autonomous and long-term option that can, regardless of your skin type, guarantee visible results just one month after the procedure. Other benefits are:
- Sophisticated technology and high levels of precision
- Nearly invisible incisions of just three millimeters
- Slight recovery time and minor bruising
- The approach is minimally invasive and needs local sedation
- Most patients require only one session
- It can be incorporated into other skin tensing or body contouring procedures
Who is a good candidate for Avéli?
Although Avéli is a treatment that adapts perfectly to every skin type, the ideal candidates should have discreet dimples in the buttocks, while the thighs should have little skin flaccidity and localized fat. It is also convenient that you have not had liposuction in the specific area you want to treat.
In general, the Avéli can be performed in people who present more flaccidity and excess fat; however, in these particular cases, it will be more successful if it is combined with other procedures to solve interrelated conditions such as excess weight or low tension of the epidermis.
To find out if this technique is appropriate for you, you need to schedule a consultation with one of our certified surgeons since they are the ones in charge of evaluating your physical conditions, taking into account your complete medical history, your previous conditions, and the medications you take.
So far, the Avéli has not been tested in patients who smoke, consume some nicotine or stopped smoking six months before undergoing the treatment. This is because nicotine decreases the body's ability to recover and heal while increasing the chances of heavy bleeding.
Comparing Avéli with other cellulite treatments
This novelty is much more impressive than other treatments, such as body creams, because Avéli has the finest details in precision and durability of the results. Creams can only temporarily improve the appearance of the skin, as this restoration is superficial and does not affect the structural causes of cellulite.
If we analyze massages and radiofrequency or laser treatments, for example, it is evident that they have much less stable effects and require multiple sessions for the changes to be visible. This also increases the price of the therapies and the recovery time.
From a surgical point of view, there are also other alternatives, such as the so-called Cellfina, which also uses fine tools to cut the fibrous bands. However, in contrast to Avéli, it is a much more painful treatment, generates a greater number of hematomas, and requires more time to return to daily activities.
Combining Avéli with other cosmetic procedures
One of the most striking benefits of Avéli is its amazing ability to be combined with other cosmetic procedures that seek to improve the composition of the skin and body structure. In our clinic, we have excellent specialists who can help you if you decide to combine it with lipo.
This mixture of processes would allow you to eliminate stubborn fat deposits and treat at the same time the dimples that cellulite causes in your thighs, buttocks, abdomen, or arms, achieving smoother skin and a smooth and rejuvenated appearance. The blend of both treatments also reduces recovery time and optimizes results. Likewise, the cost decreases since the operating room, anesthesia, and medical equipment are used more efficiently.
Something similar happens when you decide to have a Brazilian Butt Lift along with the Avéli. While the BBL focuses on the shape and size of the glutes through fat transfer, the Avéli specifically addresses the underlying causes of cellulite by maximizing its effects.
In this case, the results are incredible, as the appearance of your physical structure is transformed along with the texture and smoothness of the skin in that area of your body. Here, you can also get less recovery time and cheaper prices than if you performed both treatments separately.
Possible side effects and risks
As with any medical and surgical treatment, Avéli presents side effects and risks whose magnitude depends, to a great extent, on whether it is performed in a prestigious clinic and with certified surgeons such as those at Icon, who also have the most advanced technology and instruments. Among the effects, the following stand out:
- Hematomas
- Tenderness
- Pain
- Small areas of firmness in the skin
- Localized swelling
- Numbness
These risks are usually minor so they do not require direct medical attention, as they can be treated with over-the-counter pain relievers and following your surgeon's postoperative instructions: compression garments, massage or compresses.
Cost of the Avéli anti-cellulite treatment
This can be done in one or several sessions, depending on each patient's characteristics and the amplitude of the correction that needs to be performed. The US average fee is $5,271, ranging from $3,850 to $9,000, while in Miami, the value can be placed between $3,000 and $5,000 per session.
At Icon Cosmetic Surgery, we offer the best prices for this procedure, starting at $3,000. Plus, when you combine Avéli with Lipo or BBL, you can access exclusive offers. Also, we offer you several financing options that seek to adapt to your needs and economic possibilities.
