Cellulite doesn’t have to be a frustrating fact of life! If you are self-conscious about unsightly, dimpled skin on your thighs and buttocks, Avéli might be just the procedure you have been looking for. We now offer Avéli cellulite treatment in Boston to help you reduce “cottage cheese” skin and feel more confident. Our practice serves people from Wellesley, Framingham, Newton, and Natick, as well as from Providence, Rhode Island; southern New Hampshire; and Vermont.
Cellulite is the term for depressions on the skin’s surface, usually in the thigh and buttocks regions. These indentations are created by the interplay of fibrous bands called septa that tether your skin to the structures below. Sometimes, a push-pull effect causes septa bands to tighten and pull the skin downward while the fat pushes up around them, causing a dimpled appearance.
Cellulite is a common occurrence for women—in fact, up to 90% of women have cellulite. While it can be hereditary, cellulite’s occurrence can also be attributed to the following factors.

The Avéli device treats dimpled areas without disrupting surrounding skin tissues. It uses an established, innovative 3-step treatment approach to smoother skin by precisely targeting and releasing the septa bands that cause cellulite.
Here’s what to expect during Avéli treatment:
While Avéli effectively treats cellulite dimples, it does not treat pockets of fat or skin laxity. Patients seeking a fat reduction treatment are better candidates for a body contouring treatment like liposuction or nonsurgical CoolSculpting.
Dr. Christopher Davidson's patient first approach to aesthetic medicine means that every decision he makes is aimed at achieving the optimal outcome for the patient. This is apparent, not just in the beautiful, natural-looking results he creates, but also in the compassionate care he delivers through every step of the process.
The cost for Avéli treatment varies based on factors such as the extent of your cellulite symptoms and the areas being treated. During your personalized consultation with Dr. Davidson, he’ll thoroughly assess your skin and develop a customized treatment plan that aligns with your goals. After your consultation, we’ll share a detailed price estimate. We offer various patient financing options to accommodate your budget and needs.
You should notice smoother skin almost immediately after treatment, with gradual improvement as the swelling and bruising subsides. You can expect to enjoy your Avéli results in the long term.
A. If you’re looking for a lasting reduction of bothersome cellulite dimples (versus fat reduction) and are in good overall health, Avéli treatment is probably right for you. Ideal candidates have minimal skin laxity and localized fat. During your individualized consultation, Dr. Davidson will confirm if Avéli is the best treatment for your aesthetic needs. If you also have extra fatty deposits, Avéli treatment can also be combined with liposuction.
A. Avéli requires little downtime, and most patients resume regular activities within 24 to 48 hours. After treatment, you may experience some mild bruising or tenderness, but this gradually resolves within 30 days.
A. Avéli is a minimally invasive, well-tolerated treatment. Dr. Davidson uses local anesthesia or alternately sedation if preferred by the patient.
A. Most patients achieve visibly smoother skin after a single treatment.
