Lipo 360 Surgery in Thailand (Circumferential Liposuction)

Procedure 2–3 hours

Hospital Stay Day case or 1 night

Recovery 2–4 weeks

Minimum Stay 7–10 days

What Is Lipo 360?

This circumferential liposuction procedure addresses fat deposits around the entire midsection in a single operation. Unlike targeted treatments on isolated areas, Lipo 360 sculpts the abdomen, waist, flanks, and lower back simultaneously for harmonious proportions and a defined silhouette.

Our partner surgeons use advanced technologies such as VASER or power-assisted liposuction, delivering dramatic yet natural-looking results tailored to your body shape and goals.

Common Concerns Lipo 360 Can Address

Excess fat around the abdomen and waistline
Love handles and flanks that don't respond to exercise
Back rolls and lack of waist definition
Overall midsection contour and proportion

Are You a Good Candidate?

Within 30% of your ideal body weight with good skin elasticity
Have stubborn fat deposits around your midsection despite diet and exercise
In good general health and maintain realistic expectations about results

Techniques & Options

Because Lipo 360 treats the torso as a single unit, the fat type in each zone matters. Your surgeon will assess density and depth of deposits at the front, sides, and back, along with skin elasticity and waist-to-hip ratio, to choose the best technology for each area. The procedure can be tailored from gentle overall slimming to aggressive waist sculpting with high-definition contouring.

There are three main techniques:

VASER Liposuction

Ultrasound-assisted technology that selectively targets fat whilst preserving surrounding tissues. Offers superior skin retraction and precise sculpting.

Less bruising and faster recovery than traditional methods
Superior skin retraction for smoother results
Can treat fibrous areas more effectively

Power-Assisted Liposuction (PAL)

A mechanically vibrating cannula that breaks up fat more efficiently. Reduces procedure time and enables more uniform fat removal.

Reduced procedure time and surgeon fatigue
More uniform fat removal and smoother contours
Less trauma to surrounding tissues

Tumescent Liposuction

The proven traditional technique using infiltrated fluid to facilitate fat removal and minimise bleeding. A reliable, lower-cost option with excellent results.

Proven safety record with decades of use
Lower cost option with excellent results
Suitable for all body areas and fat types

Recovery Timeline

Days 1–3

Moderate discomfort, swelling, and bruising around the entire midsection are normal and expected. Light walking is encouraged and you'll wear a compression garment. Your care coordinator will check in daily.

Week 1

Swelling peaks around day 3–5 then gradually subsides. Light walking continues and you'll attend a follow-up appointment. Most patients feel noticeably better by day 7.

Weeks 2–4

Most swelling reduces significantly and you can return to desk work and light daily activities. Results become more visible each week as your waistline sharpens and contours take shape.

Months 2–6

Final contours emerge as residual swelling diminishes and skin retracts. Tiny incision marks fade to pale, barely visible lines, with full results typically visible by 3–6 months.

What to Expect

Sculpted Silhouette Defined waist from every angle

Long-lasting Contours Permanent fat cell removal

Comprehensive Transformation Full torso in one session

Safety & Risks

Lipo 360 is a safe procedure when performed by an experienced surgeon, but like all surgeries, it carries some risks.

Contour irregularities or asymmetry
Seroma or haematoma
Temporary numbness or altered sensation

Infection at incision sites
Fat embolism (rare)
Poor skin retraction (uncommon)

Treating the entire midsection in a single session means more tissue is addressed than in isolated liposuction, so your surgeon will explain how fluid management, safe fat removal limits, and compression garment protocols are adapted for this circumferential approach.

Common Questions About Lipo 360

Everything you need to know before your procedure

Plan for a minimum stay of 7–10 days for your consultation, surgery, recovery, and follow-up appointments before flying home.

Incisions are typically 3–5mm long and strategically placed in natural creases or inconspicuous areas. They fade significantly over 6–12 months and are usually barely noticeable once fully healed.

Safety guidelines typically limit fat removal to 4–5 litres in a single session. Your surgeon will assess your specific case and may recommend staged procedures if you require more extensive fat removal.

VASER can improve mild skin laxity, but Lipo 360 is not a skin tightening procedure. If you have significant loose skin, your surgeon may recommend adding a tummy tuck.

Initial results are visible once swelling subsides at 4–6 weeks, but final contours emerge over 3–6 months as residual swelling resolves and skin retracts. Results are permanent if you maintain stable weight.

No, Lipo 360 is body contouring, not weight loss. You may lose 2–4kg, but the primary benefit is improved shape and proportion.

Fat cells removed are permanently gone. However, remaining cells can enlarge with weight gain. Maintaining a stable weight through healthy lifestyle ensures long-lasting results.

Most Thailand packages include surgeon fees, anaesthetist, facility costs, compression garments, post-operative medications, and follow-up appointments during your stay. Confirm specific inclusions with your clinic.

Light walking is encouraged from day 1. Return to gym workouts at 4–6 weeks, starting gently and building intensity gradually. Avoid core-intensive exercises and heavy lifting for 6 weeks minimum.

Because this procedure treats the entire torso, thorough preparation helps optimise results. Stop smoking at least four weeks prior and discontinue blood-thinning medications two weeks ahead. Have your compression garment fitted before surgery day, stay well-hydrated, and eat iron-rich foods in the weeks beforehand to support recovery from the larger treatment area.
