Does Liposuction Treat Cellulite? Understanding Treatment Options and the Role of Aveli

Cellulite is a common concern among many individuals, affecting people of all shapes, sizes, and ages. Characterized by dimpled, lumpy skin, cellulite can occur on various areas of the body, including the thighs, buttocks, hips, and abdomen. As a board-certified plastic surgeon, I often encounter patients who are seeking solutions to reduce the appearance of cellulite and achieve smoother, more toned skin. One question that frequently arises is, “Will liposuction get rid of cellulite?” In this article, we’ll explore the relationship between liposuction and cellulite, as well as discuss Aveli as a treatment option for cellulite reduction.

Understanding Cellulite:

Before delving into the efficacy of liposuction for cellulite reduction, it’s essential to understand what cellulite is and how it develops. Cellulite occurs when fat deposits push through the connective tissue beneath the skin, resulting in the characteristic dimpled appearance. While excess fat can contribute to the development of cellulite, other factors such as genetics, hormonal changes, poor circulation, and lifestyle habits can also play a role.

Can Liposuction Get Rid of Cellulite?

While liposuction is an effective treatment for removing excess fat deposits and improving body contour, it is NOT specifically designed to address cellulite. Liposuction targets deeper layers of fat beneath the skin and does not directly address the structural changes associated with cellulite. As a result, while liposuction may improve the overall appearance of the treated area and reduce the volume of fat, it may not necessarily eliminate cellulite or smooth out dimpled skin.

Aveli: A Revolutionary Approach to Cellulite Reduction

While liposuction may not be the ideal treatment for cellulite, there are other options available for individuals seeking to reduce the appearance of cellulite and achieve

smoother, more toned skin. One innovative treatment option is Aveli, a minimally-invasive procedure designed specifically for cellulite reduction. Aveli utilizes advanced subcision technology to target cellulite at its source, treating the underlying structural origin of cellulite.

How Aveli Works:

Aveli works by delivering directly releasing septae, or bands, that connect underlying fat to skin, which causes dimpling, puckering, and cellulite changes. This process helps to smooth out dimpled skin, improve skin elasticity, and enhance overall skin texture. Through a small incision, the Aveli device is passed below the skin where it can grasp and release the cellulite bands, permanently disrupting the fat-to-skin connection.

Benefits of Aveli:

1. Minimally-invasive: Aveli is a procedure that requires very small incisions, often without the need for suture, or downtime. Patients can undergo treatment comfortably in-office and return to their normal activities soon afterward.
2. Customizable: Aveli treatment can be tailored to each patient’s unique needs and concerns, allowing for personalized treatment plans based on the severity and location of cellulite. Aveli is best for cellulit present on the buttock, lateral, and posterior thigh.
3. Safe and Effective: Aveli has been clinically proven to be safe and effective for cellulite reduction, with minimal risk of side effects or complications. The procedure is performed by trained professionals under the guidance of a board-certified plastic surgeon.
4. Long-lasting Results: With a series of Aveli treatments, patients can experience significant improvements in cellulite reduction and achieve smoother, more toned skin. Results are long-lasting, with many patients enjoying continued improvement over time.
5. Versatile: Aveli can be used to treat cellulite on various areas of the body, including the thighs, buttocks, and hips. It can also be combined with other cosmetic procedures, such as liposuction or body contouring, to enhance overall results.

Is Aveli Right for You?

If you are bothered by the appearance of cellulite and are seeking a minimally-invasive solution to achieve smoother, more toned skin, Aveli may be an excellent option for you. During a consultation, your plastic surgeon will assess your concerns, discuss your goals, and determine if Aveli is the right treatment approach for addressing your cellulite.

In conclusion, while liposuction may not be the ideal treatment for cellulite reduction, innovative procedures like Aveli offer safe, effective, and minimally-invasive solutions for achieving smoother, more toned skin. By understanding the underlying causes of cellulite and exploring advanced treatment options, patients can achieve the results they desire and feel more confident in their appearance. If you’re interested in learning more about Aveli or other cellulite reduction treatments, I encourage you to schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon who can provide personalized recommendations based on your individual needs and goals. With the right approach, achieving smoother, more beautiful skin is within reach.
