Explore the Best Cellulite Treatment in San Antonio for Smoother, Firmer Skin You’ll Love
Frustratingly, no matter how fit and healthy your lifestyle is, the vast majority of women suffer from cellulite. In fact, an estimated 85% of all women over the age of 20 have some cellulite! It can be extremely frustrating when you exercise and have a healthy lifestyle and still see the dimpled, lumpy appearance of cellulite on your body.
At Eterna Cosmetic Surgery, we are pleased to offer four cellulite treatment options to help you get rid of that cellulite. Why four? Well, most people don’t realize there are different types of cellulite. The underlying cause is the same: fibrous bands that connect your skin to tissue underneath are woven throughout fat in your thighs and buttocks. They can pull down your skin, resulting in the uneven appearance of cellulite.
Your cellulite may look deeply puckered, dimpled, crepey, or wavy. You may even have more than one type of cellulite. With multiple cellulite removal treatments available, Dr. Elizabeth Hernandez can precisely address and diminish your specific cellulite issues.
New Treatment! Aveli ®.
Avéli® is an FDA-cleared cellulite treatment designed to address the root cause of stubborn dimples on the thighs and buttocks. Using a handheld device, Dr. Hernandez can precisely target and release the fibrous bands beneath the skin that create visible cellulite. Unlike creams or energy-based devices, the Avéli procedure offers real-time confirmation of each band released—delivering smoother skin with long-lasting results. Most patients see improvement after just one session, with results lasting up to a year or more. The treatment typically takes less than an hour and involves minimal downtime.
If you have been searching for the best cellulite treatment machine or wondering what is Avéli, this minimally invasive procedure may be the solution. Curious about Avéli before and after results or how much Avéli costs? Schedule a consultation to explore whether Avéli cellulite treatment is right for you.
Subcision for Cellulite
Subcision is a minimally-invasive procedure that has been used for years to treat cellulite. Dr. Hernandez identifies and marks cellulite dimples before the procedure. Then, after administering a numbing solution, she delicately cuts the fibrous bands under your skin with a specialized needle. This causes the cellulite dimples to bounce back, smoothing the skin’s appearance. The procedure is fast and requires minimal downtime, though patients usually experience some bruising and minor pain for a few days.
Our advanced subcision for cellulite treatment targets stubborn cellulite, offering visible results with minimal downtime. Let us help you achieve the smooth, youthful look you’ve been dreaming of.
Hyperdilute Radiesse
Radiesse is a popular injectable dermal filler, a thick gel that contains microscopic particles of calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA) which stimulate collagen production in the skin. However, by thinning the gel with local anesthetic, Dr. Hernandez can use it to effectively treat cellulite. Hyperdilute Radiesse works in two ways — firming the skin by stimulating collagen production and adding volume in the treated areas — to improve the look of wavy cellulite. It works for stretch marks, too.
Results of Hyperdilute Radiesse last 18 months or longer. The body metabolizes the CaHA particles completely after 18 months, but skin texture and tone continue to improve because new collagen production can last longer. Patients can be retreated in the future as needed.
Lipoderma
Lipoderma is a groundbreaking injectable treatment that uses a purified allograft adipose matrix—derived from donated human fat tissue—to restore facial volume, improve skin texture, and support natural tissue regeneration. This minimally invasive solution stimulates your body’s own healing response, making it ideal for treating volume loss, sunken scars, and uneven skin tone with long-lasting, natural-looking results.
Cellfina®
Cellfina® is a thoroughly modern version of subcision that is more precise. Instead of manually cutting the fibrous bands that cause cellulite, Dr. Hernandez can use a vacuum-assisted handheld device to insert a microblade below your skin to release each band. Cellfina® is the only FDA-cleared, one-time procedure clinically proven to improve the appearance of dimple-type cellulite in the thighs and buttocks for at least 5 years. Patient satisfaction with their results is exceptional. Treatment sessions typically take about 45 minutes.
Schedule a consultation with Dr. Hernandez to discuss your specific goals and determine the best option for you.

What Patients Have Said
Being semi-awake during the procedure was a bit strange at first, but the team made sure I was comfortable the entire time and consistently checked in to make sure I was okay. Their care and attentiveness truly stood out.
It’s almost been a year since my surgery, and I couldn’t be happier with the results—it looks amazing. I will definitely be going back in the future, and I’m even considering trying TruFlex next time.
The only mildly negative experience I had was when I asked about their facials. I was told they would follow up since their machine was being replaced with a newer model, but I never heard back. That said, it was a minor issue and didn’t take away from my overall positive experience.
Highly recommend!
