What Is Lipo 360?
Lipo 360 refers to circumferential liposuction of the torso, targeting fat deposits across the entire midsection. This includes the upper and lower abdomen, flanks (love handles), and the entire back area. The goal is to achieve a harmonious and contoured shape around the body’s core.
Lipo 360 Procedure Overview
This comprehensive procedure focuses on creating a smooth transition between body areas, avoiding isolated fat reduction. By treating the torso globally, lipo 360 sculpts a more proportionate and defined physique. Our practice utilizes advanced techniques like Vaser Lipo for precise fat removal.
Preparation & Consultation
- Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with a thorough consultation to discuss your aesthetic goals and assess your candidacy for lipo 360. Dr. Wissam Fayad will evaluate your body composition, medical history, and explain the procedure in detail. This personalized discussion ensures a tailored treatment plan.
- Setting Expectations
During your consultation, we will establish clear and realistic expectations for your lipo 360 results. We will review before-and-after photos and discuss the potential outcomes based on your individual anatomy. Understanding the process helps ensure a satisfying experience.
- Pre-Procedure Instructions
Prior to your lipo 360 procedure, you will receive specific instructions to prepare for surgery. This typically includes guidelines on diet, medication adjustments, and avoiding certain supplements. Following these instructions is crucial for a smooth procedure and recovery.
During Your Lipo 360 Procedure
- Anesthesia Options
We offer flexible anesthesia choices for your comfort during lipo 360. You may opt for local anesthesia with Pronox (awake liposuction) or choose general anesthesia, which is administered by a board-certified anesthesiologist. Your preference and the extent of treatment will guide this decision.
- Vaser Lipo Application
Once anesthesia is administered, small incisions are made in discreet areas around the torso. Vaser Lipo technology then uses ultrasound energy to gently emulsify (liquefy) fat cells without damaging surrounding tissues. This precision allows for effective fat removal and sculpting.
- Fat Removal and Sculpting
After fat emulsification, specialized cannulas are used to gently suction out the liquefied fat. Dr. Fayad meticulously sculpts the abdomen, flanks, and back to create smooth, natural-looking contours. This step is crucial for achieving the 360-degree effect.
- Optional Skin Tightening
For patients seeking enhanced skin retraction, Renuvion skin tightening can be performed in conjunction with lipo 360. This advanced technology combines radiofrequency energy with helium plasma to contract the skin, further refining your results. This can address mild to moderate skin laxity.

Recovery After Lipo 360
Immediate Post-Procedure Care
Immediately after your lipo 360, you will be fitted with a compression garment. This garment is essential for minimizing swelling, promoting skin retraction, and supporting your new contours during the healing process. You will receive detailed post-operative care instructions.
Managing Discomfort
Some discomfort, swelling, and bruising are normal following lipo 360. Pain medication will be prescribed to manage any discomfort effectively. Most patients find that discomfort subsides significantly within the first few days.
Return to Activities
Most patients can return to light, non-strenuous activities within a few days to a week after lipo 360. Strenuous exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for several weeks. We will provide a specific timeline for resuming your normal routine.
Follow-Up Appointments
Regular follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor your healing progress and ensure optimal results. These visits allow us to address any concerns and provide guidance throughout your recovery journey. Consistent follow-up care is vital for your outcome.
Results & Timeline
While some immediate contour improvements are visible, the full results of lipo 360 emerge gradually as swelling subsides over several weeks to months. The final, sculpted silhouette typically becomes apparent within 3-6 months. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle will help preserve your results long-term.

- Those with realistic expectations for body contouring, not significant weight loss.

Lipo 360 FAQs
What is the difference between traditional liposuction and Lipo 360?
Traditional liposuction often focuses on isolated areas, while lipo 360 is a comprehensive approach that targets the entire midsection circumferentially. This technique ensures a smoother, more balanced contour around the torso, rather than just reducing fat in one spot. It creates a more harmonious and natural-looking silhouette.
How long do Lipo 360 results last?
The results of lipo 360 are considered long-lasting, as the fat cells removed during the procedure do not grow back. However, maintaining a stable weight through a healthy diet and regular exercise is crucial. Significant weight fluctuations after the procedure can affect your results.
Can Lipo 360 help with loose skin?
Lipo 360 primarily removes fat, but when combined with advanced technologies like Renuvion, it can also address mild to moderate skin laxity. Renuvion helps to tighten the skin, complementing the fat removal for a smoother overall appearance. For significant skin excess, alternative procedures might be more suitable.
Is Lipo 360 a weight loss solution?
No, lipo 360 is not a weight loss solution but rather a body contouring procedure. It is designed to remove stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise in individuals who are already close to their ideal body weight. It sculpts the body, it does not drastically reduce overall weight.
What kind of anesthesia is used for Lipo 360?
For lipo 360, we offer both local anesthesia with Pronox, allowing you to remain awake and comfortable, or general anesthesia. The choice depends on the extent of the procedure and your personal preference. General anesthesia is administered by a board-certified anesthesiologist to ensure your safety and comfort.
