What Is Avéli Cellulite Reduction?
If you are one of the millions of individuals living with dimpled, "orange peel" or "cottage cheese" skin around the thighs, hips, and buttocks, then you may be a good candidate for cellulite reduction at Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery. Cellulite is caused by fat pushing through the connective tissues under the skin, making it a tricky problem to treat without professional help. We perform cellulite reduction at our Chicago, IL practice using the Avéli handpiece, a groundbreaking device that cuts through the fibrous bands beneath the surface to eliminate skin dimpling for a smoother overall appearance with little to no downtime. This treatment also pairs well with BodyTite skin tightening, creating a firmer, "lifted" aesthetic without extensive surgery. If cellulite is affecting your confidence, contact Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery to learn if Avéli cellulite reduction is right for you.
How Are Avéli Cellulite Treatments Performed?
Before starting your procedure, we'll examine the treatment area and use a marker to map out the spots we're going to address. We'll also administer local anesthesia to numb any discomfort. While you lie back, we'll carefully insert the Avéli wand under your skin. The wand comes equipped with a bright red light, which we will use to guide the device to the fibrous bands, also called septae. Using the wand, we'll "grab" the septae and sever them, releasing your skin and smoothing out dimpling. Thanks to the anesthetic, you should only feel a tugging sensation while we work. Once we're finished, we'll bandage the areas and talk with you about aftercare instructions and what you can expect during the recovery process.
What Are the Benefits of Avéli Cellulite Reduction?
Diet and exercise can do wonders for your look and overall health — but when it comes to stubborn cellulite, they often aren't enough. Avéli cellulite treatments at Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery can allow you to enjoy a variety of benefits, including:
- Firming dimpled, uneven skin
- Little to no downtime for recovery
- Delivers long-lasting results in one treatment
- Can be paired with other skin tightening or body shaping procedures for a more comprehensive transformation
Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery Reviews
Dr. Fine is simply amazing! I started this journey full of fear and uncertainty, and came out thrilled with the result. I never expected that my breasts would look better post mastectomy and reconstructive surgery, then my natural ones yet here I am, staring in the mirror every day with awe. I am super thankful to Dr. Fine and his team: wonderful Barbara, Monika and Kat and all the beautiful ladies who welcomed me with smile every time. 5 stars!
I had surgery on my chin and the results are amazing. Dr. Moradian made things easy and painless. I 10/10 would recommend to anyone near the Chicagoland area looking for a good plastic surgeon.

When my smartwatch started showing blood oxygen levels below 90%, I knew I needed to do something about my blocked nasal passages. What was holding me back was finding a specialist who had a similar view of the balance between form and function. I knew I needed to breathe better but I also needed reassurances that my nose would not look the worse for it. It was my lucky day when I walked through the doors of the NSPSMEDSPA and met with Dr. Shierle. He was calm, funny, honest, and supportive. He understood and had explanations for my symptoms and options for solutions. His reassurances based on experience were thoughtful and on point. His depth of knowledge was beyond impressive. September 2024, Dr. Shierle performed my septoplasty. It has been life altering. My oxygen levels are solidly above 95%. My sleep the best it’s been in memory. And although it might be because I’m no longer scrunching it up to get air, my nose looks its best ever. I would be remiss if I did not also thank the NSPSMEDSPA staff. Appointments, insurance and paperwork were all taken care expertly and with a smile. Thank you everyone.
Dr. Meridian is an amazing plastic surgeon! I recommend him without hesitation for anyone considering facial surgery. He answers all questions thoroughly and is concerned and compassionate.
