- Drug:
- Renuvion
- Announced Date:
- May 14, 2026
- Indication:
- Contracting subcutaneous soft tissue following liposuction in multiple areas of the body
Announcement
Apyx Medical Corporation announced the publication of a new retrospective investigator-initiated study in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery - Global Open1.
AI Summary
Apyx Medical Corporation announced that a new retrospective investigator-initiated study was published in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery - Global Open. The 113-patient study looked at long-term results after liposuction, including patient satisfaction, safety, and the need for more surgery. It found that adding Renuvion to power-assisted liposuction led to better patient-reported satisfaction with abdominal appearance, skin quality, and excess skin. The Renuvion group also had lower rates of abdominoplasty and surgical revisions.
Importantly, these benefits were achieved without raising complication rates compared with liposuction alone. The study suggests that Renuvion may help improve body contouring results while keeping safety similar. Apyx said the findings add to the clinical evidence supporting its technology and its newer AYON Body Contouring System.

- Indication:
- Contracting subcutaneous soft tissue following liposuction in multiple areas of the body
Announcement
Apyx Medical Corporation announced the submission of a new 510(k) premarket notification to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") for the label expansion of the AYON Body Contouring System ("AYON") to include power liposuction.
AI Summary
Apyx Medical Corporation submitted a 510(k) premarket notification to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to expand the label of its AYON Body Contouring System to include power liposuction. This could make AYON the first fully integrated contouring platform cleared for powered fat removal in one device.
If cleared, surgeons will be able to treat all aspects of body contouring with a single system. The power liposuction feature uses a reciprocating cannula that removes fat more efficiently, reducing manual effort and improving procedure speed. Apyx plans to activate the new functionality remotely in AYON systems already installed at surgical centers nationwide.
Following a nationwide commercial launch in September, Apyx is hosting a virtual key opinion leader event on October 14, 2025, to discuss AYON’s rollout and collect feedback from aesthetic surgeons.
