Avéli™ Cellulite Treatments

Conveniently located to serve the areas of Houston, TX

Are you looking to get rid of cellulite? Cellulite refers to dimples or depressions with defined edges found on the surface of the skin, usually on the buttocks or thighs. It is caused by the shrinking of fibrous connections, called septa, between skin and internal structures below it.

Not all septa causes cellulite, and many of these fibrous connections are important. That said, if you do have cellulite that you want eliminated, our team can help.

Aveli treatments target the specific areas of cellulite without putting you through surgery or requiring a prolonged period of recovery.

With Aveli cellulite treatments, we will help your skin become smoother and more toned so you can feel confident with how you look.

What is cellulite?

Cellulite is a depression of any shape or size seen on the surface of the skin, typically on the buttocks or thighs, with defined edges. A major underlying cause of cellulite are septa – the fibrous bands that tether your skin to the structures below.

Septa are complex.

They can be different for different women or in different parts of the body. Some septa are good (and you want them as connective tethers), but others stiffen or shrink over time and lead to the dimples you see on the surface and call cellulite.

What cellulite isn’t…

First and foremost, cellulite is not your fault. Second, cellulite is not laxity (a loss of elasticity in our skin), nor is it poor skin quality. And last, loud and clear, cellulite is not fat.
