The study evaluated patient-reported outcomes following liposuction with and without helium plasma radiofrequency (Renuvion). The results demonstrate that adding Renuvion to liposuction resulted in statistically significant improvements in patient-reported satisfaction with abdominal appearance and excess skin, along with lower rates of abdominoplasty and surgical revisions, while maintaining comparable complication rates to power-assisted liposuction. Key Findings from the 113‑Patient Study <ul type="disc"><li style="margin-bottom:8pt;">Patients treated with Renuvion reported statistically higher satisfaction with reduced appearance of excess skin (Body‑Q score 87.8 vs. 73.8; p=0.03)</li><li style="margin-bottom:8pt;">Among patients who did not undergo abdominoplasty, satisfaction with abdominal appearance was also statistically higher (68.8 vs. 45.0; p=0.039)</li><li style="margin-bottom:8pt;">The rate of patients requiring abdominoplasty was more than 50% lower in the Renuvion group compared to the group receiving power-assisted liposuction only (30.0% vs. 67.1%)</li><li style="margin-bottom:8pt;">Revision rates were significantly lower in the Renuvion group (12.0% vs. 37.5%; p=0.038)</li><li style="margin-bottom:8pt;">Complication rates remained similar between groups (2.5% vs. 2.7%) </li></ul> “This study adds to the growing body of clinical evidence supporting the use of Renuvion in aesthetic body contouring,” said Charlie Goodwin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Apyx Medical. “With more than 2 million liposuction procedures performed globally each year*, these statistically significant improvements in patient satisfaction and reduced revision rates underscore the value Renuvion provides to aesthetic surgeons and their patients.” The retrospective study, led by Pablo D. Huber, MD, evaluated long-term (&gt;12 month) Body-Q® patient-reported outcomes, procedural data, and safety profiles across 113 patients treated by a single surgeon. The Renuvion cohort (power-assisted liposuction + Renuvion) consistently reported higher satisfaction with skin quality and abdominal contour, with no increase in complications. Apyx Medical’s latest technology, the AYON Body Contouring System™, builds on the proven foundation and technology of Renuvion, leveraging decades of clinical evidence and real-world experience to deliver precise, efficient, and effective energy-based solutions in an all-in-one system. 1A digital version of the clinical publication is available via the following link:  <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=9xiewwPkPdBR0U5RnnOmiU6qQxidOezVpeVfod0bZZJmTSIL04DToRgSC-7hiExb9wJxRztASWmeAD9PGIlMmaw54Mq_Ks-DN4oKHcK1Gw7bixb22E0XP_hjQeSahE9vEAkPHzumwsZ0XE7gjW5iD1e8jnkQr2Af5ZOJjmZ3jWubyS4pycwiCSvtmBa8kbxl9MCGzfm3RdfcnDvQf1lQbC5RAaJWLonus9jtjNbOQ4QXNcrOtf5yqAeeRKbG6mHEzqd4E5JpojyoJ8191MnXB743kxnfJqpPLwNH4EpxigJQC0xG38JZmelcc-YUNkup2kKi-0UJzkHA0VxZG-6uyfeU1Gl4n0A51COEFmvfMXYdO2HPSnHxPGPGRfw3Imp1QabUdaU5Xp-Za34BEnbMhnRErHdjTpzKPcBkEXKN5oP8WLxQ76lN2aXgNpqAvaemsQJjshzam9i5OJozhAocn80N1UuLIe_LDmlIQq5AetVvdDLX1DcmC4EU8zyi0Ie9KTeolO1iNtEEa9VKOq0a6aWlLwghQuPFB64tx8an6zImtiJlnk7Z-AOrY6NjFRgSxDpZRjnI38oDvdLUNk5fGPie05NQJKiQO0djxLi1uyRqq1DzWRviii9N7SVqIu09KXGdjtRPY3HeX10nZYgHCLG0GfFEWQPG1Bz0QfIY-eebP1pVB3K_ZDXg8whgIageLMp787EKHV-IZ49gXcLXcLqlyzLwkc5eSDCw7c6MPcGl-VeCaSNRiDHJAGZEndMNGEn5Asu4DDUlggLtRgzigCOwFWerchjHV1VAjUPyaLc=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery – Global Open.">Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery – Global Open.</a> *Source: ISAPs 2024 Survey About AYON Body Contouring System™: AYON is a groundbreaking, surgeon-designed body contouring system that combines precision, versatility, and innovation in an all-in-one platform.
