Smooth away stubborn dimples with Avéli®, a minimally invasive treatment that targets the root cause of cellulite for lasting results. At Potomac Aesthetic Surgery, Dr. Kasandra Dassoulas performs this advanced cellulite treatment in Bethesda to help you achieve smoother contours.
Smooth Away Stubborn Cellulite Dimples
Avéli cellulite treatment is an innovative, FDA-cleared procedure that addresses cellulite at its structural source. Using a specialized device, Dr. Dassoulas precisely identifies and releases the fibrous septa bands beneath the skin that cause dimpling on the thighs and buttocks. This minimally invasive procedure smooths uneven skin texture, resulting in a noticeably firmer and more refined appearance. Avéli offers an evidence-based approach to restoring smooth skin, backed by Dr. Dassoulas’s expertise in aesthetic body contouring.
Avéli Treats:
- Cellulite dimples on the buttocks and thighs
- Uneven skin texture caused by fibrous septa beneath the skin
- Moderate to severe cellulite that persists despite diet and exercise
- Structural irregularities contributing to dimpled or puckered skin
How Does Avéli Cellulite Treatment Work?
Cellulite forms when fibrous bands called septa pull down on the skin, creating dimples as fat cells push up beneath the surface. At Potomac Aesthetic Surgery, Dr. Kasandra Dassoulas offers advanced cellulite treatment in Bethesda to address these concerns safely and effectively. Avéli works by releasing these tight bands through a small incision under local anesthesia.
Using a precision-guided device, Dr. Dassoulas identifies, targets, and releases each septae in real time, restoring smoothness from within. This minimally invasive approach treats the structural cause of cellulite for lasting results.
Benefits of Avéli Cellulite Treatment:
- Long-lasting improvement in the appearance of cellulite dimples
- Minimal downtime with most patients returning to normal activity within days
- In-office procedure performed under local anesthesia
- Precise, targeted release of fibrous bands causing dimples
- Noticeably smoother, firmer skin texture over the treated areas
- Single-session treatment with no need for multiple visits
Your Avéli Cellulite Treatment Session
During your Avéli cellulite treatment in Bethesda, Dr. Dassoulas begins by marking the targeted dimples on your thighs or buttocks. After administering local anesthesia to ensure comfort, she makes a few small access points in the skin. Using a specialized handheld device, she carefully guides a thin probe beneath the surface to identify the fibrous septa bands responsible for each dimple.
Once the septa are precisely located, Dr. Dassoulas releases them one by one, confirming the real-time smoothing effect as each band is treated. The procedure typically takes about one to two hours, depending on the number of dimples addressed. You may notice mild swelling or bruising afterward, but most patients return to their daily activities within a few days.
Recovery After Avéli Cellulite Treatment
After Avéli cellulite treatment, you may experience mild bruising, tenderness, or small areas of firmness under the skin, which are normal and resolve within a few weeks. Most patients return to normal routines within 24 to 48 hours, though it’s best to avoid strenuous exercise or direct pressure on treated areas for the first few days. Dr. Dassoulas will provide personalized aftercare instructions to support optimal healing and comfort after your cellulite treatment in Bethesda.
As swelling and bruising subside, you’ll begin to see visible smoothing of cellulite, often within the first month. Your texture continues to improve as your body adjusts to the released septa bands, revealing a more even, refined contour. Clinical studies show that results are long-lasting, with a sustained reduction in cellulite for at least a year after just one treatment.
