Is it safe to have Aveli done more than once? How long should one wait before having another session done?

Question

I had the Aveli procedure six months ago on my buttocks. While I have some improvement, there are additional dimples I’d like to treat to reach my goals. While marketed as a one-time procedure, are repeat Aveli procedures safe? Is there an amount of time I need to wait?

Thomas Wright, MD · Answer

Jeanna, Thank you for your question.  Aveli is a low risk minimally invasive treatment for cellulite.  Aveli is usually a one time procedure, however there are instances when it may be done more than once. If there are a great many clusters of cellulite dimples that can be treated close together, it is best to not get them all treated at once. Or if there are so many dimples that you may exceed the limit of local anesthetic, it is advisable to have two treatments.

Good question. I would wait six months to let the swelling, bruising and trauma to the skin settle. Make sure your next round doesn't include any skin laxity. You should be evaluated in the standing position and drawn out to show laxity vs. dimpling. Hope this helps. JB

Aveli can be repeated multiple times.  I recommend waiting at least three months between sessions to allow proper time for the area to heal if necessary. Hope that helps! Dr. T

Aveli is a procedure that correct cellulite effectively. Occasionally, when the areas of cellulite are very large or very deep it can be repeated and will achieve greater improvement. This is different than the older procedure for cellulite known as cellulaze which caused a large amount of scar tissue formation underneath the skin making repeat treatments ineffective

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

Yes you can have more than one Aveli treatment.  I encourage you to return to your provider to discuss the additional areas of concern.  As it has been six months from the initial treatment is should be fine for you to proceed to address other concerns.
