Cellulite typically appears on the legs or buttocks, leading to a bumpy or dimpled look on the skin. Since cellulite is caused by the accrual of fat below the skin's surface, this concern can be challenging to treat by yourself. At Mizuguchi Plastic Surgery, Dr. Nana Mizuguchi performs minimally invasive cellulite reduction treatments with the cutting-edge Avéli platform for an observable improvement in the look of cellulite dimples. The treatment targets and severs the septa bands that cause cellulite dimples with the help of a small wand, working to give you a smoother skin appearance. Reach out to our Louisville, KY practice to schedule an appointment and discover more about the outstanding outcomes you could obtain.

Am I a Candidate for Aveli Cellulite Reduction?

Aveli cellulite reduction can be an optimal option for people who are within a good weight range and want to diminish cellulite on the buttocks. The option will benefit those of practically all ages. However, some types of individuals can get improved results than when compared to others. These usually are individuals who have:

  • Noticeable cellulite, fat, and skin texture problems
  • A need for outcomes that last a long time
  • Realistic ideas for their results
  • Generally healthy and a good immune system

Before the Avéli cellulite reduction procedure, Dr. Mizuguchi will identify your treatment locations. Next, a local anesthetic will be used to numb the areas on the thighs or buttocks being treated, after which a few small incisions will be made. Then, a small device will be inserted underneath the skin. The treatment wand, using a hook on the end, cuts and separates the fibrous septa bands that cause cellulite dimples. Because the dimpling bands are physically severed, Dr. Mizuguchi and the Mizuguchi Plastic Surgery team can confirm that the area has been sufficiently treated. The treatment can typically be finished in about an hour, including the time it takes to administer local anesthesia. While Avéli is an exciting platform for smoothing skin and addressing cellulite, it does not treat lax skin or fat pockets. For those concerns, Dr. Mizuguchi may be able to suggest a surgical or nonsurgical body contouring treatment to be performed in the same treatment plan as Avéli.

I cannot say enough about my incredible experience with Dr. Nana Mizuguchi! This is the second time he’s performed a breast augmentation for me, the first one was 16 years ago. I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. On top of that, I recently underwent a drainless tummy tuck with Dr. Mizuguchi, and the outcome has been absolutely life-changing.After struggling with very visible scars and a lump on my stomach from previous surgeries, I wasn’t sure what to expect. However, Dr. Mizuguchi gave me a beautifully flat and toned stomach. I never imagined he would be able to fix the lump I had from a colostomy bag, but he did. I never thought I’d feel this confident in my own skin again! The fact that the tummy tuck was drainless made the recovery process much easier and more comfortable than I ever anticipated. I was only off work for a week. As for my breast augmentation, this is the second time Dr. Mizuguchi has worked his magic, and once again, he delivered perfect results. He understood exactly what I was looking for and helped me achieve a look that’s both natural and balanced. His expertise, combined with his personalized approach, made me feel completely at ease throughout both of these surgeries.Dr. Mizuguchi’s attention to detail, compassionate care, and commitment to achieving the best results are truly exceptional. I am so grateful for the time he took to listen to my concerns and customize each procedure to fit my goals. His entire team is also fantastic—supportive, professional, and kind.I highly recommend Dr. Mizuguchi to anyone considering cosmetic surgery as well as aesthetic procedures. I decided to get lip injections during a follow up visit and they are amazing also

Decided on 485 cc's under the muscle. I just had my surgery yesterday and so far so good! - I'm 30 years old and I have two kids, I've wanted implants for a long time, after I breastfed my youngest who is now 5 years old, I became very deflated and hated my chest, I was a 36D. I met my surgeon Dr. Mitzuguchi about a month ago and had a virtual consultation where we decided I'd need a lift and I showed him my wish pictures, at my pre op appointment I was able to go in and try on different sizes of implants and we decided on 485 cc's under the muscle, I just had my surgery yesterday and so far so good! I'm very happy with my results so far, and dr. Mitzuguchi and his staff are amazing, very pleasant to work with and very tentative to their patients needs. I'm pretty sore today but it's nothing too bad, I'm on muscle relaxers and pain killers, and I have my first post op visit on Monday!!!

What Should I Expect after Avéli?

After your procedure, there should not be any necessary recovery time, but we suggest that you refrain from high-intensity activities for few days as the body recuperates. Some patients will see slight bruising, inflammation, and tenderness, but these effects should fade in the next few days. You should be able to observe smoother skin within roughly three days with added improvements as collagen grows over the weeks to come. By maintaining a healthy weight, you should reap the benefits of your long-lasting cellulite reduction results. Our team will inform you of how often maintenance treatments are needed to help you keep up your results.

How long do the effects of Avéli cellulite reduction last?
Avéli treatments performed by Dr. Mizuguchi offer a long-lasting solution to cellulite dimples by physically severing the fibrous septa bands. However, it's important to maintain a healthy lifestyle to prolong the effects. Regular exercise and a balanced diet can help keep new cellulite from forming.

Is Avéli cellulite reduction compatible with other body-contouring treatments?
While Avéli is specifically designed for treating cellulite dimples and not for addressing lax skin or fat pockets, it can be combined with other body-contouring treatments. If you have concerns beyond cellulite, Dr. Mizuguchi may suggest a surgical or nonsurgical treatment that can be performed alongside Avéli as part of a comprehensive treatment plan.

Can the Avéli treatments cause any scarring?
The Avéli cellulite reduction procedure involves making a few small incisions, which are usually very minor. At Mizuguchi Plastic Surgery, we take great care to minimize any potential scarring, and these incisions are often barely noticeable once healed. During your consultation, we will discuss what you can expect in terms of scarring and any measures you can take to further minimize it.

Is Avéli Cellulite Reduction safe while pregnant?
Is Avéli Cellulite Reduction safe while pregnant?

Avéli Cellulite Reduction is generally not recommended during pregnancy. Our team will typically suggest waiting until after pregnancy and recovery before evaluating whether cellulite reduction treatment is appropriate.

Can men get Avéli Cellulite Reduction?

Men can be candidates for Avéli Cellulite Reduction if they have true cellulite dimples that match what the treatment is designed to address. Our team will evaluate the area to determine whether Avéli or another option is the better fit.

Will cellulite come back after Avéli if I gain weight?

Weight gain can affect the appearance of cellulite and surrounding contours after Avéli, even though treated dimples may improve long term. Maintaining a stable weight can help preserve results, and our team can discuss what to expect based on your anatomy.

How much does Avéli Cellulite Reduction cost?

Cost varies depending on the number of treatment areas, the severity of cellulite, and the individual plan tailored by Dr. Mizuguchi at Mizuguchi Plastic Surgery. During your consultation, the team will review financing options, payment plans, and help you assess value for your goals.

How do I prepare for the treatment, and what should I do after?

Preparation might include:

  • Avoiding certain medications or supplements as advised
  • Arranging for comfortable recovery (since you may have mild discomfort or require compression)
  • Avoiding heavy lower-body exercise shortly before the procedure
    After treatment:
  • Wear the recommended compression garment as instructed
  • Avoid vigorous lower-body workouts for the advised time
  • Attend follow-up visits with Dr. Mizuguchi to monitor healing and results
How many treatments are needed, and how long do results last?

Most patients achieve noticeable improvement after just one treatment. The results can last for a year or longer, depending on your lifestyle and natural aging process. While no treatment can permanently eliminate cellulite, Avéli® provides long-lasting results that many patients find rewarding.
