He is a specialist in the procedure, allowing him to optimally reshape the torso of his patients. 360° Liposuction is completed in an outpatient setting using general anesthesia. A small incision is made in the skin for a cannula to be inserted. The cannula is a tube that makes it easier to loosen the fat as it is being vacuumed out. Once the fat deposits have been removed, Dr. Hwang will close the incision. Your surgery may last 1 – 3 hours. In the separate recovery room, your post-op team will help manage your pain until you are discharged. It is normal to see swelling and bruising for 1 – 2 weeks. It is important to give your body time to rest and heal. While you may see improvements soon after your surgery, it will take around 6 – 10 months before your new body contour is complete.

Recovery from 360° Liposuction, a procedure that targets multiple areas of the body for fat removal such as the abdomen, flanks, back, and sometimes the buttocks, may vary based on individual factors like health, age, and the extent of the procedure. Some guidelines and recommendations to follow after 360° Liposuction include: Patients may experience post-op moderate pain, swelling, and bruising that can be addressed with prescribed or over-the-counter pain relievers. Swelling should gradually diminish over 6 weeks. Some numbness or changes in skin sensation might occur. Worn for several weeks, compression garments will be necessary to help reduce swelling and support healing. The first few days often require significant rest so it may be necessary to arrange for some assistance. Avoid heavy lifting and strenuous activities for 2 – 3 weeks after liposuction. Light walking is encouraged to promote circulation. Normal activities may resume in about 6 weeks. After 6 weeks, most patients can return to regular exercise routines. Follow up with your scheduled check-ups to monitor your healing progress and address any concerns.
How do I maintain the great results I get from a 360° Liposuction?

Periodic check-ups may be necessary to ensure proper healing. Proper hydration and a balanced diet can help the recovery process. It is also important to avoid direct sun exposure on incision sites. Our team also will provide some gentle skin care tips. Having a support system and communication with your surgeon will be vital during the recovery process.
How is a 360° Liposuction different from a traditional liposuction procedure? While traditional liposuction typically focuses on removing excess fat from specific, isolated areas such as the abdomen or thighs, 360° Liposuction takes a more holistic approach, addressing multiple areas of the torso in a single procedure. This technique involves the removal of fat from the abdomen, flanks, lower back, and sometimes the buttocks to contour an entire midsection and create a more balanced body silhouette.
Will I have scars? Scarring is a typical aftereffect of 360° Liposuction. Although Dr. Hwang will make small incisions, they can leave scars. Dr. Hwang usually makes strategically placed incisions in less visible areas or along natural body creases to minimize the visibility of scars. However, scars tend to fade over time and become less noticeable. Scarring also depends on factors like your skin type, age, genetics, and how well you follow post-operative care instructions.
