The unwelcome dimpling of cellulite can be frustrating, especially when diet and exercise fail to diminish its appearance, Avéli Cellulite Reduction is here to help. Cellulite results from fibrous connective bands that tether the skin to the underlying muscle. Fat can cause the skin to push further away from the muscle. The bands pull the skin down at the connection points, thus creating dimpling in the skin.
If left untreated, cellulite’s “orange-peel” appearance can affect your self-confidence and limit your clothing choices. Fortunately, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Stephanie Teotia offers Avéli, a practical and convenient cellulite solution.

Up to 90% of women have cellulite, regardless of their fitness level, weight, or body type. Though this condition is not physically harmless, it can still be psychologically troubling. Cellulite commonly appears on the thighs, buttocks, and hips, depending on your skin structure and muscle tone.
Though cellulite is notoriously challenging to treat, Avéli is a quick, FDA-cleared in-office solution. Dr. Teotia performs this minimally invasive procedure using a small handheld device that releases the bands that cause cellulite to appear as bumps and dimples on the buttocks and thighs. Usually, only a single session is necessary to produce long-lasting medical spa results.
Precision is Avéli’s top benefit. A high level of accuracy produces better results with minimal risks and side effects. The tool has a light that allows Dr. Teotia to assess each cellulite depression’s depth, letting her identify and target the appropriate bands to cut while leaving the others intact.
Other advantages of Avéli cellulite treatment include:
Dr. Teotia believes during every aspect of your aesthetic journey, trust and communication are essential. When you choose to partner with Dr. Teotia, you can expect a personalized approach from a specialist who genuinely has your best interest in mind. She invites you to meet with her and our friendly, all-female team to learn more about what we can do for you.
Avéli could be ideal for you if you are in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and are seeking a minimally invasive, long-term reduction in cellulite dimples. This treatment is an especially worthwhile option for women with busy schedules, since it typically only takes a single appointment to produce optimal outcomes. Dr. Teotia will meet with you and determine your eligibility for Avéli by asking you questions about your health history.
If you choose to have your Dallas Avéli treatment performed in the hospital, you may request IV sedation to help you remain calm and relaxed throughout. For in-office procedures, we offer a combination of local anesthesia and sedation with Pro-Nox, a mixture of 50% oxygen and 50%nitrous oxide. You will self-administer the medical gas as needed to alleviate any anxiety you might feel.
To locate and sever the connective tissue bands that create cellulite dimples, Dr. Teotia will insert the Avéli device through small incisions and carefully guide it beneath your skin. Because Avéli involves manipulating and cutting tissue under your skin, you can expect some bruising and swelling after treatment. You may experience some discomfort for the first day or two after the anesthetic wears off. Your results should be visible once your swelling and bruising subside, usually about a month after the procedure.
Avéli treats cellulite by releasing the bands that cause it. It is not a solution for the localized fat pockets that often accompany cellulite. For optimal results, you may want to combine this procedure with liposuction.
A single, in-office procedure can diminish targeted cellulite dimples on your buttocks and thighs with long-lasting results.
We recommend avoiding strenuous activities and exercise for about two weeks after your Avéli session to allow the area to heal. Dr. Teotia will provide you with detailed post-procedural instructions.
The initial swelling and bruising may obscure your results. It may take up to a month for these side effects to subside, and then you can enjoy the full outcome of your Avéli treatment.
Aveli is designed to address cellulite on the thighs and buttocks, which are the most common areas where dimpling tends to appear. In certain cases, it may also be used on other localized areas depending on a patient’s needs and anatomy. Dr. Teotia will evaluate your concerns during your consultation to determine if Aveli is appropriate for the areas you wish to improve.
The procedure usually takes about one hour. Since it is performed in the office, patients often find it convenient to schedule without significantly disrupting their day.
Most patients describe the procedure as very tolerable. Local anesthesia is typically used to keep you comfortable throughout treatment. You may experience some tenderness or mild soreness afterward, but this usually improves within a few days.
Recovery after Aveli is generally straightforward. Bruising and swelling are common and usually improve within one to two weeks. Most patients are able to return to normal daily activities within a few days, although exercise and more strenuous activities may need to be delayed briefly. Dr. Teotia and her team provide detailed aftercare instructions to support a smooth recovery.
Clinical studies suggest that Aveli results may be long-lasting because the procedure addresses the structural causes of cellulite. While individual results vary, many patients notice improvement after just one treatment and continue to enjoy their results for years.
Aveli may be a good option if you are in overall good health and are bothered by moderate to severe cellulite on your thighs or buttocks. It is not a treatment for loose skin or excess fat, so patients with skin laxity may need to explore other procedures. Dr. Teotia will provide an honest and thorough assessment to determine if Aveli is right for you.
Unlike many topical products or devices that may only address the surface, Aveli directly targets the fibrous bands under the skin that cause cellulite dimpling. It is a single-session, minimally invasive treatment that allows Dr. Teotia to identify and release these bands with precision. This approach usually offers more noticeable and longer-lasting results compared to creams, massage devices, or energy-based treatments.
When undergoing any cosmetic procedure for your body, breasts, or face, it is critical to select a specialist who is equally compassionate and skilled. As a leading female plastic surgeon, Dr. Teotia understands how cellulite can adversely affect your self-esteem. After meeting with you and learning about your goals, she will work closely with you to develop and act on a customized plan that helps you reach them. Due to Avéli’s technology and Dr. Teotia’s expertise and care, cellulite removal in Dallas can create outstanding results.
Many patients in the greater Dallas area, including the communities of Flower Mound, Turtle Creek, and Oak Lawn, have decided to partner with Dr. Teotia because of her empathetic approach. Schedule your consultation to meet with Dr. Teotia and her friendly, all-female team to learn more about what Avéli can do for you.
