Avéli®
Cellulite is one of the most common aesthetic concerns for women — and one of the most frustrating to treat. More than 90 percent of women experience dimpling on their thighs or buttocks, regardless of age, body weight, or fitness level. While cellulite isn’t harmful, it can take a toll on confidence, often making you feel hesitant to wear shorts, swimsuits, or fitted clothing.
At Dermlounge, we understand how discouraging cellulite can be, which is why we are proud to offer Avéli®, an FDA-cleared treatment that targets the root cause of cellulite beneath the skin. Guided by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Neil Zemmel, our team provides this innovative solution to help you achieve smoother, more youthful-looking skin, often with just one session.

What Is Avéli®?
Avéli® is a minimally invasive treatment specifically designed to improve the appearance of cellulite on the buttocks and thighs. Unlike creams or surface treatments that only provide temporary results, Avéli® addresses cellulite at its source: the fibrous bands that pull down on the skin and create a dimpled texture.
Using a handheld device, these fibrous bands can be released in real time, allowing the skin to spring back to a more even, refined surface. This makes Avéli® a unique and powerful option for women seeking lasting cellulite reduction.
How Does Avéli® Work?
Cellulite forms when connective bands under the skin tether fat to deeper structures. Avéli® works by carefully navigating beneath the skin to identify and release these fibrous bands. Once released, the tension responsible for the dimples is eliminated, and the skin appears smoother.
Because the procedure allows providers to confirm band release during treatment, results are precise and predictable. By going directly to the source of cellulite, Avéli® delivers noticeable, long-term improvement after a single session.
What Are the Benefits of Avéli®?
Patients often choose Avéli® because it offers advantages that many other cellulite treatments cannot match:
- One-time treatment with long-lasting results
- FDA-cleared for cellulite on the thighs and buttocks
- Minimally invasive and performed under local anesthesia
- Real-time confirmation of results during treatment
- Quick recovery: most patients resume normal activity within 24–48 hours
Is Avéli® Right for Me?
Avéli® is a great option for women who want a lasting solution for cellulite on the thighs or buttocks. Ideal candidates are those who:
- Are healthy and at a stable weight
- Have realistic expectations about treatment outcomes
- Want to target cellulite dimples rather than loose skin or excess fat
During your consultation, your provider will evaluate your concerns, explain what Avéli® can achieve, and determine whether it’s the best treatment for you. In some cases, combining Avéli® with other skin tightening or body contouring procedures may further enhance results.
What Can I Expect During the Avéli® Treatment?
Your Avéli® appointment at Dermlounge will begin with a consultation and treatment area mapping. Once local anesthesia is administered, the small Avéli® device is guided beneath the skin. The fibrous bands responsible for dimpling are then identified and released.
The procedure generally takes about an hour, depending on the size of the treated areas. Small bandages may be placed afterward, and you’ll be given post-care instructions to support healing.
What Can I Expect in My Avéli® Recovery?
Downtime after Avéli® is minimal. While you may notice temporary swelling, tenderness, or bruising, these effects typically resolve within a couple of weeks. Most patients are able to return to work and light activities within 24–48 hours, though strenuous exercise should be avoided for several days.
Improvement in skin texture is often visible within the first month as swelling subsides. Unlike other cellulite treatments that require multiple sessions, Avéli® is designed as a single treatment that provides results lasting a year or more.
How Much Does Avéli® Cost?
Because every treatment plan is customized, the cost of Avéli® varies based on your individual needs and treatment area. During your consultation, our team will provide you with a personalized estimate.
For added flexibility, Dermlounge accepts several financing options, including CareCredit® and Cherry, to help make treatment more affordable.

Complementary Procedures for Avéli®
Avéli® is an excellent standalone solution for reducing cellulite, but some patients may benefit from combining it with other treatments available at Dermlounge.
