Liposuction Surgery in Reno/Tahoe, NV

Stubborn pockets of fat can remain even with regular exercise and a healthy lifestyle, often appearing in areas such as the abdomen, waistline, thighs, back, or neck. Liposuction is designed to remove these localized fat deposits and reshape the body’s natural contours, creating a more balanced and refined silhouette. Modern liposuction techniques go beyond simple fat removal by combining precise sculpting with technologies that can tighten skin and improve overall contour.

At Avance Plastic Surgery Institute in Reno, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Erez Dayan performs advanced liposuction procedures tailored to each patient’s anatomy and aesthetic goals. Dr. Dayan trained at the prestigious Harvard Plastic Surgery Program and later completed an elite aesthetic surgery fellowship at the Dallas Plastic Surgery Institute, one of the most respected cosmetic surgery fellowships in the world. In addition to performing surgical body contouring procedures, Dr. Dayan has published and presented his work on aesthetic surgery and emerging body-contouring technologies more than 150 times internationally and has contributed to multiple books on advanced aesthetic techniques.

Dr. Dayan’s approach to liposuction focuses on creating natural-looking body proportions through meticulous sculpting and the integration of modern technology. As a researcher and investigator working with leading aesthetic companies such as Allergan, Galderma, InMode, and MTF Biologics, he studies emerging technologies that improve safety, precision, and recovery for body contouring procedures. This combination of surgical expertise and research involvement allows patients at Avance Plastic Surgery Institute to benefit from advanced liposuction techniques designed to produce smooth, balanced, and long-lasting results.

Radiofrequency assisted liposuction with BodyTite

Liposuction can be performed on its own to slim the thighs, back, arms, belly, chest or bra rolls, or it can be used in combination with other cosmetic and reconstructive procedures for comprehensive results. Dr. Dayan can explain more during a consultation at his Reno/Tahoe office at Avance Plastic Surgery Institute.

What Is Liposuction?

During liposuction, small, inconspicuous incisions (2-3 millimeters) are made at key points around the problem area. A thin tube known as a cannula is then inserted within the incision, and the excess fat is suctioned out of the body. This fat can be discarded, or it can be saved for a fat transfer procedure to other body areas. This is commonly used when performing a Brazilian butt lift, facial fat transfer, fat transfer to the back of the hands or fat transfer for breast augmentation.

Liposuction in Reno/Tahoe can take as little as 45 minutes, or it may take several hours to treat larger areas. While liposuction is not a weight-loss method, it can be a highly effective body shaping technique in removing unwanted, stubborn fat that does not respond to diet and exercise.

What Are the Benefits of Liposuction?

Liposuction has numerous benefits, in addition to being a safe, quick way to remove unwanted fat from problem areas of the body. Some of these are:

Improve your body contour and ideal proportions
Remove excess, unwanted fat
Accomplish fat removal in areas that diet and exercise have failed
Long-lasting results
Improves well-being and confidence

Liposuction can be used to tone, slim and sculpt a double chin, the lower face and jawline, neck, abdomen, thighs, chest, upper arms, bra rolls, back, waist, hips or buttocks. Dr. Dayan often uses it in conjunction with other body contouring procedures for additional slimming and shaping.

Who Makes a Good Candidate for Liposuction in Reno?

The ideal candidate for liposuction at Avance Plastic Surgery Institute in Reno/Tahoe, NV, fits the following criteria:

You have good skin elasticity
You are healthy physically and mentally
You are at or close to your ideal weight

You are a non-smoker
You are realistic in your expectations

Liposuction Under Local Anesthesia

Dr. Dayan is highly experienced with the latest techniques in awake liposuction in the office setting under local anesthesia. He was trained by pioneers of this technique at the Harvard Plastic Surgery Program and has performed hundreds of procedures under local anesthesia. Dr. Dayan has published and presented these cutting-edge techniques nationally and internationally. He has also co-authored a leading textbook titled: Emerging Technologies in Face and Body Contouring.

The benefit of liposuction under local anesthesia is that it can be performed in the office procedure room without the need for a formal operating room, anesthesia and associated costs and time. Many of Reno's liposuction patients prefer to be awake and conversational during their procedure while being completely comfortable under the local anesthesia. We offer Pronox to our patients, which is 50% oxygen and 50% nitrous oxide or ‘laughing gas’ to ensure they are comfortable throughout the liposuction procedure.

Radiofrequency Assisted Liposuction

Radiofrequency skin tightening has rapidly become one of the most popular techniques for minimally invasive skin tightening without the need for long incisions and skin removal. Like shrink wrap, the radiofrequency heat tightens the skin 30-40% and has been shown to lead to new collagen and blood vessel formation.

Dr. Dayan is one of the most experienced surgeons internationally with radiofrequency skin tightening technology. Dr. Dayan serves as a consultant, investigator and key opinion leader for InMode Aesthetics, the leading manufacturer of radiofrequency skin tightening technology in the world. He has published and lectured on these topics internationally including the Middle East, Asia, Europe and South America.

Dr. Dayan leads prototype and FDA trials of new radiofrequency technology and commonly combines the benefits of radiofrequency skin tightening with liposuction. Avance Plastic Surgery Institute also serves as one of the primary training centers for surgeons in the United States to learn how to gain optimal outcomes using this emerging technology.

Body Sculpting and High Definition Liposuction

Dr. Dayan has trained and worked extensively with global experts in body contouring such as Dr. Alfredo Hoyos from Total DefinerTM in Bogota, Colombia. He has also collaborated with Drs. Spero Theodorou and Christopher Chia from BodySculpt in New York City on high-definition liposuction and advanced body contouring. Using cutting-edge liposuction techniques and technology (including ultrasound assisted, power assisted and radio frequency assisted liposuction), Dr. Dayan can generate ideal proportions and a body shape customized for each patient.

For example, women who want a fit ‘yoga’ look can now achieve their goals. Men who seek a six-pack abdomen or muscular chest and arms can also obtain their aesthetic goals, with a combination of addition/subtraction liposuction and fat grafting, to highlight the natural hills and shadows of the body.

What Will Recovery Entail?

During Dr. Dayan's liposuction procedure, he uses local anesthesia and nerve blocks in key anatomic areas to minimize any soreness or discomfort. Typically, mild bruising and swelling are present after liposuction, but you will be home the same day and walking. You may wear a compression garment for a few weeks to help lessen your swelling and keep your new shape optimal.

After a few weeks, you will be back to your regular activities and able to begin exercising again by around week three or four. It will take about three full months for the swelling to completely resolve.

What Is the Cost for Liposuction in Reno/Tahoe with Dr. Dayan?

Liposuction in Reno/Tahoe can be performed in different areas of the body, and to different degrees, so the cost will be based on the extent of the work performed.

Hands down the most qualified, honest and knowledgeable plastic surgeon in Northern Nevada. Dr. Dayan and his staff are truly committed to offering leading edge technology, quality and professionalism to each and every treatment ranging from to simple non invasive injections to complicated procedures. What he and his team have to offer always seems too good to be true, but they always over exceed expectations and are incredibly budget conscientious. The Reno-Tahoe area is incredibly fortunate to welcome such a skilled and qualified aesthetic professional into the area!

Dr. Dayan is the surgeon clients should interview with and choose for their procedures. I am always very cautious when deciding important life decisions and I can say without a doubt that I would go through my surgeries again with Dr. Dayan. Every appointment has been professional, courteous, informative, and truthful. I never felt rushed. I also appreciate knowing my privacy is maintained. My fear of pain is very respected, and his demeanor eases it quite a bit. I made my decision to trust Dr. Dayan because of his extensive education, vast experience, and my first-hand witness of his character. These factors have allowed me to look forward to all of my appointments.

I had three consultations and didn't make any decisions lightly, but Dr. Dayan blew the competition out of the water. From the moment I met him during my consultation, he was honest and open while also personable. He also insisted on putting me in touch with previous patients before I made my decision so that I could have a better understanding of the process and recovery as a whole. I ultimately picked him because I knew he would do a good job but also because I felt at ease with him. The day of surgery, I was very nervous and he was comforting while efficient with his time. He was also completely honest with me during my recovery and called either myself or my husband often to make sure I was doing well, but also to make sure my husband understood the process completely. He also makes himself so available for any little questions or concerns I've had, making me feel secure in knowing he's only a phone call or a text away. Although I am not yet completely healed (only 3 weeks post-op) I already feel so confident in the work that has been done. He has helped me to transform something that had me so insecure for such a long time into a body I feel comfortable in. I cannot wait for the final results! I won't hesitate to return to Dr. Dayan for anything else I need done. Between him and his office staff (Alli) I feel like more of a member of the Avance family rather than a patient!

I highly encourage anyone who is considering plastic/reconstruction surgery to schedule a consultation with Dr. Dayan. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and outcome from my breast augmentation. At my consultations, not only did I get my questions thoroughly answered, but I was treated with such genuine kindness and patience. Dr. Dayan is professional, highly knowledgeable, honest and has a certain way of connecting with others. For these reasons, I trusted him and felt supported throughout my whole breast augmentation experience from pre- to post-surgery care. All around, I felt safe and informed about this big decision/investment which is all I could ever ask for. I recovered so much easier than I expected, and my breasts are looking perfect and natural! Dr. Dayan definitely listened to what I wanted and followed through. Lastly, I want to mention how sweet and supportive his team is over at Avance! I am very appreciative of their service.

My results after a "noninvasive" procedure are amazing. The cutting-edge techniques and noninvasive technology that Dr. Dayan incorporates into his procedures, as well as being a gifted and talented surgeon and individual, all contribute to his many accomplishments. However, I personally am impressed with his abilities to listen, communicate, and create beautiful results. I highly recommend a consultation with Dr. Dayan before making a final decision on any kind of procedure. Just another satisfied patient!

Mary J.

I had a perfect experience at Avance. Dr. Dayan was quick, professional, and checked in with me regularly to make sure I was comfortable during the short procedure I needed done. His demeanor was calming and I was able to put full trust in his abilities from start to finish. Erez really knows his stuff, and it's amazing he's here in Reno when he could clearly be somewhere much bigger if he wanted. I definitely won't hesitate to book again if needed.

Absolutely an amazing experience! Where to start? When I first thought of getting a mommy makeover my expectations were not that high because I didn’t ever think I could look the way I wanted to. I always just hoped it would be an improvement and I would be happy with that. Then I met Dr. Dayan. From the first consultation he made me realize that he could give me beautiful results that I didn’t know were possible. He was so kind and confident and I knew from that moment that he was going to be my surgeon. I booked my surgery (a breast augmentation with implants and a tummy tuck with lipo) that day and it was the best choice I have ever made. Before my procedure he was very thorough and explained step by step what he was going to do which made me feel so comfortable. I actually wasn’t nervous at all. I was so excited! I am now 1 month post op and my results are above and beyond what I could have ever dreamed my body could look like after a mommy makeover. Dr. Dayan did an exceptional job. I am not completely healed and I already am so pleased. There are no words that can do justice to how amazing it is to put trust in someone with my body and wake up with results that are better than I could have ever imagined. He truly is skilled in his profession and has the eye for what is best for your body to give you the best results. He followed up with me several times post op to see how I was feeling. If I had any concerns or questions he responded to them quickly and personally which made me feel confident that everything was going well! His care is exceptional from beginning to end. He has an amazing staff as well. His Patient coordinator Ali is so sweet and helpful. She is amazing with communication as well as helping you with financial options and scheduling. You won’t be disappointed working with Dr. Dayan and Ali!

Valerie F.

Dr. Dayan and his team are the best of the best! The level of care, professionalism is top of the class. I strongly recommend Dr. Dayan and his entire team. I cannot say enough about his work - he is incredibly talented and I am confident under his care. Of course the results are amazing! I love my LIPS!
