Lipo 360 with AYON and Renuvion
Lipo 360 contours your whole midsection, front, sides and back, so the result looks balanced from every angle. I use the AYON system to remove fat precisely and Renuvion to help the skin contract.

Overview
No one sees you from one angle only. Treating the abdomen alone can leave the flanks and back out of proportion, so Lipo 360 treats the torso as one shape: abdomen, waist, flanks and back.
It is a contouring procedure, not a weight-loss procedure. It works best for stubborn areas that don't respond to diet and exercise, once your weight is stable.
Is it right for you?
Lipo 360 may be right for you if
- You're at or near a stable, healthy weight
- You have stubborn fat on the abdomen, waist, flanks or back
- Your skin has reasonable elasticity (with a lot of loose skin, a tummy tuck may be better)
- You don't smoke and are in good general health
The procedure
Technology and technique
Renuvion
Helium plasma energy delivered under the skin to help it contract after liposuction, used within its FDA clearance.
One torso, one plan
Abdomen, waist, flanks and back are marked and sculpted together, as a single shape.
Awake option
Selected smaller areas can be treated under local anesthesia. We decide together what is safest for you.
Recovery
What recovery usually looks like
- First days
Soreness and swelling are expected. Walking is encouraged, and you wear a compression garment.
- One to two weeks
Many patients return to desk work.
- Several weeks
The garment continues while you gradually return to exercise, as cleared.
- Three to six months
Swelling settles and the final contour appears.
Every recovery is individual. You'll leave with a written plan for yours, and you can reach us at (402) 489-4700 at any time.
Results
What to expect
You'll notice a change once the first swelling goes down, but the final contour takes three to six months to show.
At your consultation I'll show you before and after photos of patients with a starting point similar to yours. Individual results vary.

What patients say
Hundreds of reviews from real patients, many of them people I've cared for over months and years.
Cost
Every quote is personal. After your consultation you receive a written estimate that includes the surgeon's fee, the facility and anesthesia, so there are no surprises.
Because this is a cosmetic procedure, it isn't covered by insurance.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Is Lipo 360 a weight-loss surgery?
No. It reshapes areas of stubborn fat. It works best when you're close to your goal weight and your weight is stable.
Will the fat come back?
The fat cells removed don't come back. The cells that remain can still grow with weight gain, so keeping a stable weight protects your result.
Do I need Renuvion?
Not always. Renuvion can help mild to moderate skin laxity. When there is significant excess skin, removing it with a tummy tuck gives a better result.
How long will I wear a compression garment?
Usually several weeks. You'll receive an exact schedule at your post-operative visits.
When will I see the final result?
Most of the swelling is gone after a few weeks, but the final contour takes three to six months.
Can Lipo 360 be combined with other procedures?
Yes. It is often combined with a tummy tuck (lipoabdominoplasty) or with breast surgery as part of a mommy makeover.
