Aveli is minimally invasive, but like with any procedure, there are some potential side effects and risks. Common Aveli side effects include bruising, swelling and tenderness at the treatment site. These effects are typically mild and subside within a few days to a week. As with any treatment that involves punctures in the skin, there is a small risk of infection, but this risk can be minimized by following proper aftercare and maintaining good hygiene. In rare cases, patients may experience temporary nerve irritation or numbness in the treated area. Minimal scarring is uncommon but could occur, particularly in individuals prone to scarring. Additionally, while rare, allergic reactions to the local anesthetic used during the procedure can happen. Your provider will thoroughly review all potential Aveli side effects and risks during your consultation and give you detailed aftercare instructions to reduce the likelihood of complications.
