✨ Cellulite isn’t caused by fat… it’s caused by fibrous bands beneath the skin.

That’s why diet, exercise, and weight loss often don’t make it disappear.

Enter Avéli®—a minimally invasive procedure designed to treat cellulite at its source.

In this reel, Dr. Salcedo introduces the Avéli device and explains how it works.

The device is a slender wand with a tiny retractable hook at the tip.

Once placed beneath the skin through a small entry point, the hook is used to identify and precisely release the fibrous bands that pull the skin downward and create the dimples we recognize as cellulite.

By targeting these bands individually, Avéli addresses the structural cause of cellulite rather than simply masking its appearance.

The result?

✨ Smoother skin
✨ Improved contour
✨ Targeted cellulite reduction
✨ Minimal downtime

One of the biggest advantages of Avéli is that it’s performed using local anesthesia, meaning patients remain comfortable throughout the procedure and can return home the very same day.

For the right candidate, it can be an excellent option for treating cellulite on the buttocks and thighs with long-lasting improvement.

Because when you treat the cause…

You get better results.

✨ A slimmer face doesn’t always require a facelift.

For patients who feel like they carry extra fullness beneath the chin, around the jawline, or in the jowls, facial slimming liposuction can be an excellent option.

In this reel, Dr. Salcedo explains how he uses a small liposuction cannula to carefully contour the:

✔️ Chin
✔️ Jawline
✔️ Jowl area

The goal isn’t to make you look like someone else.

It’s to reveal the natural definition that’s already there.

By removing excess fat and sculpting the lower face, patients can enjoy:

✨ A sharper jawline
✨ Better neck definition
✨ Reduced jowl fullness
✨ A slimmer, more sculpted facial profile

One of the biggest advantages?

For the right candidate, this procedure is performed under local anesthesia, meaning patients remain comfortable during the procedure and are able to go home the very same day.

For many people, facial slimming liposuction can provide many of the contouring benefits they’re looking for without undergoing a more invasive facelift.

The key is choosing the right procedure for your anatomy and goals.

Sometimes, subtle changes create the biggest impact.

And for many patients, such a small procedure gives them their confidence back and can be life-changing.

✨ Part VII: Megan’s Journey — Designing the dream.

Before every great result comes a great plan.

In Part VI of Megan’s Journey, we’re taking you inside her pre-op appointment as she prepares for her Motiva Preservé breast augmentation.

Like many patients, Megan came in with inspiration photos that perfectly captured the look she was hoping to achieve.

Her goals?

✨ More projection
✨ More upper pole volume
✨ Beautiful cleavage

As Dr. Salcedo reviewed her inspiration photos, he explained an important difference between traditional breast augmentation and Motiva Preservé.

One of the unique advantages of the Preservé technique is that it often creates more projection and “pop” without necessarily needing to use a larger implant.

For example, a patient receiving a 300cc implant with Preservé may achieve a similar appearance to someone receiving a 350cc implant with a traditional breast augmentation.

The reason?

Preservé is designed to optimize implant positioning and pocket creation, allowing the implant to project more efficiently for the right candidate.

That means it’s not always about choosing the biggest implant…

It’s about choosing the right implant for your anatomy and aesthetic goals.

This pre-op visit is where Megan’s vision starts becoming a surgical plan.
