Dr David Shafer

“Avéli’s strength is that it’s incredibly precise. In a very targeted manner, it allows me to identify and release the stiff, tough, fibrous bands that pull on the skin and create cellulite dents, divots and dimples. Then, I can check my work, giving me confidence in my patient’s results.”

Avéli® is indicated for long-term reduction in the appearance of cellulite in the buttocks and thigh areas of adult females as supported by clinical data demonstrating treatment benefits through one year of observation. Avéli® is also indicated for soft tissue dissection during general and plastic surgical procedures. The most common side effects reported were mild pain within the first 24 hours and bruising and tenderness to the touch which typically resolved within 30 days. Some patients returned to normal activities within one day of the procedure and most within a week. As with any medical procedure, there are risks associated with the procedure. Consult with your provider for full safety information. Individual results will vary.
