If you’re looking for dramatic body contouring results, 360 liposuction delivers complete transformation. Unlike traditional liposuction that targets only one area, a 360 lipo treats the entire midsection — front, sides, and back — to sculpt a smooth, balanced silhouette from every angle. At VIVE Plastic Surgery, we specialize in this comprehensive approach to reshape your body and enhance your natural curves. Here’s what’s included in a full 360 liposuction and why it’s one of today’s most popular procedures.
What “360” Really Means
The term “360” refers to a full-circle approach around your torso. Instead of focusing on a single zone, this technique removes excess fat evenly around the abdomen, waist, flanks, and back. The goal is to create harmony and proportion — not just flatten the stomach but define your entire figure. The result is a sculpted, contoured body that looks natural and balanced from every view.
Areas Included in a 360 Liposuction
A full 360 liposuction typically includes multiple areas that work together to enhance your overall shape:
- Abdomen (upper and lower): Removes belly fat and defines the core.
- Flanks (“love handles”): Slims the waistline for a more feminine or athletic contour.
- Lower back: Smooths bulges and highlights the curve above the hips.
- Mid-back and bra roll: Reduces fat that can create unwanted lines under clothing.
- Waistline contouring: Creates a seamless transition from ribs to hips.
By addressing all these regions at once, 360 lipo delivers a cohesive, hourglass-style contour that’s difficult to achieve with standard liposuction alone.
How the Procedure Works
During 360 liposuction, your surgeon uses small incisions and a thin cannula to remove fat evenly from each area. At VIVE Plastic Surgery, we use advanced techniques that minimize trauma, reduce swelling, and help skin tighten naturally. The procedure is performed under anesthesia for comfort and usually takes two to four hours, depending on how many zones are treated. Because it’s a comprehensive approach, it ensures your body looks balanced from the front, sides, and back.
Who Is a Good Candidate for 360 Liposuction
This treatment is ideal for individuals who maintain a stable weight but struggle with stubborn fat that doesn’t respond to diet or exercise. Good candidates typically:
- Are in good health and near their ideal weight
- Have good skin elasticity
- Want a defined waist and smoother body contour
- Are looking for proportionate, 360-degree improvement
- Have realistic expectations about recovery and results
360 lipo is not a weight-loss procedure but a sculpting solution that enhances your natural figure.
Recovery After 360 Liposuction
Recovery is typically quick and manageable. Most patients return to light activities within a few days and resume regular routines in about two weeks. Mild swelling and bruising are normal and subside gradually. Wearing your compression garment as directed helps your skin tighten and promotes smooth healing. You’ll notice initial results within a few weeks, with your final, sculpted shape appearing over the next two to three months as your body adjusts.
The Results You Can Expect
360 liposuction creates a slimmer, more defined silhouette that looks great from every angle. You’ll see enhanced waist definition, smoother curves, and a naturally balanced body shape. When combined with healthy habits, results can last for years.
