Lipo 360 in Tijuana

Liposuction 360, also known as “lipo 360,” is an advanced cosmetic procedure that removes fat deposits from multiple areas of the torso, including the abdomen, flanks, lower back, and in some cases, the upper thighs. The goal is to sculpt the body evenly, achieving a more contoured and proportionate silhouette.

The main difference lies in the approach:

Traditional Liposuction: Focuses on specific areas of the body, such as the abdomen or thighs, depending on the patient’s needs.
Lipo 360: Treats the torso comprehensively (360 degrees), delivering a uniform contour and more balanced results.

Lipo 360 focuses on comprehensive body contouring by removing fat from multiple areas of the body, including the abdomen, waist, hips, back, and thighs, to create a more balanced and sculpted appearance. In contrast, Lipo HD (High-Definition Liposuction) not only removes fat but also emphasizes muscle definition, particularly around the abdomen and other areas, to create a toned, athletic look. Lipo HD is ideal for those looking for more muscle definition, while Lipo 360 is designed for overall body reshaping.

Lipo 360 is ideal for individuals who:

• Want to eliminate localized fat that does not respond to diet or exercise.
• Seek to improve the proportion and contour of their torso comprehensively.
• Are in good general health and have realistic expectations about the results.
• Maintain a stable weight, close to their ideal range.

Before the procedure, the patient should:

• Undergo a complete medical evaluation to confirm they are a suitable candidate.
• Avoid smoking for at least two weeks before and after surgery.
• Discontinue medications such as aspirin or anti-inflammatory drugs that could increase the risk of bleeding, as advised by the doctor.
• Stay hydrated and follow a balanced diet.
• The surgeon will provide a personalized preparation plan to ensure a safe and successful process.

The duration of lipo 360 varies between 2 and 4 hours, depending on the areas being treated and the amount of fat to be removed.

Lipo 360 is performed under epidural anesthesia, which numbs the lower part of the body while the patient remains awake and pain-free. This method allows for greater control during surgery and a smoother recovery compared to general anesthesia.

Recovery time typically ranges from 1-2 weeks for most patients, depending on the extent of the procedure. While you may experience some swelling, bruising, and soreness, you can generally return to light activities after a few days and resume normal activities within 1-2 weeks.

The results of Lipo 360 are permanent as long as you maintain a stable weight. Fat cells removed during the procedure do not return. However, weight gain can cause remaining fat cells to enlarge, which could affect your results. Regular exercise and a healthy diet can help maintain your new body shape.
