What is Lipo 360?

Lipo 360 or more accurately 3D Lipo is neither a technology nor a marketing term. It is first thinking of the body three dimensionally and not one area alone. Think about beautiful forms, either models or works of art. We see the body in three dimensions. The curves are defined the transitions from one body zone to the next: the chest to the waist to the hips or the back to the flanks to the buttocks. Lipo 360 is an artistic or sculptural approach that treats many body areas at one time. The patient is treated in different positions ( front, back on the sides) to literally shape the body circumferential. The goal is not absolute fat reduction but defining shape.

Lipo 360

A Lipo 360 procedure for women will treat the torso circumferential. This includes the tummy, the bra fat, the back rolls, the hips, buttocks and pubic areas. Other areas often treated include the fat under the arms, the arms and the thighs or knees. Lipo 360 for men will include the tummy, the flanks, back, buttocks, chest and neck. With men, the goal is to reveal the underlying muscular anatomy, also known as “abdominal etching”.

Advantages of Lipo 360

1. The body is treated artistically with an aesthetic goal in mind from the start. Instead of “lets remove fat” the strategy is “ how do I create a beautiful (masculine or feminine body). In fact, very frequently fat grafts may be used to augment an area that has lost or needs additional volume. Most commonly this is the buttocks, but fat may also be added to the chest or shoulders.
2. Only the necessary fat is removed from one area to create shape. This prevents overresection when only one area is treated.
3. The results are natural and last a long time. Even with weight gain, the proportion of fat in different body areas is more balanced

Lipo 360 Disadvantages

1. Larger liposuction procedure ( multiple area treated at one time).
2. More recovery
3. More investment.
