Lipedema Liposuction Surgery - Not Your Typical Liposuction

“My Lipedema Is Gone—
And I Look Amazing!”
Lipedema surgery using liposuction has been a proven and accepted method of alleviating lipedema symptoms for over the past decade. However for lipedema, a full 360 leg or arm liposuction is absolutely necessary to achieve lasting results compared to the standard liposuction used in traditional cosmetic cases where only small isolated patches are treated. Another difference is that the thickness of the fat also has to be removed more thoroughly or completely compared to conservative cosmetic treatments. These surgeries are the most advanced arm and leg liposuction surgeries because of these large areas and the completeness required. However, the difficulty gets even worse because of the advanced age and larger thicknesses of fat being treated in the lipedema patient. Because lipedema liposuction is so much more complicated, it takes the most skilled and experienced surgeons to do it well.
Choosing the Best Lipedema Surgeon & Best Looking Results
At Artlipo, we have been at the forefrosnt of Lipedema treatment, and have specialized in lipedema liposuction for the past 10 years. What truly gave us the expertise and knowledge to offer the best lipedema surgery treatment was Dr. Su’s unique background as a lipedema doctor. Before lipedema liposuction surgery was even being offered by any surgeons in the U.S., Dr. Su had already spent years perfecting 360 thigh, leg, knee, and arm liposuction for his cosmetic patients, something that no other surgeons were doing at that time. When Dr. Su first became aware of lipedema and started treating it with liposuction around 2015, there were only 4 or 5 other surgeons in the entire U.S. also offering liposuction for lipedema. Dr. Su already had thousands of cases of lipo 360 arms and legs for his cosmetic patients. But he still had to gain experience in lipedema liposuction, to improve the physical symptoms specific to lipedema and to understand his lipedema patients specific needs. It turns out that the symptoms responded beautifully to the same 360 liposuction treatment as the cosmetic patients. Currently, with over 10 years of lipedema liposuction experience, and more cases than almost any other surgeon, we have given relief to approximately 5000+ women with lipedema. But what distinguishes us from other lipedema surgeons is our dedication to achieving the best cosmetic result. It has always been our passion and what our reputation has been built on. Our lipedema surgery is regarded by many as having the best cosmetic results. It not only makes you feel better, but look better too!
Celebrity Arms 360 Liposuction - the First 360 Arm Lipo
Liposuction of the arms and legs, as performed by most plastic surgeons, is typically limited to small, palm-sized areas—like the inner thighs, outer thighs, and the underhang of the arms. As an artist, this approach never made sense to Dr. Su. He couldn’t understand why so much of the problem area was left untreated.
More than a decade ago, when no other surgeons were even willing to attempt it, Dr. Su began performing and perfecting circumferential Lipo 360 of the full arms and legs. In 2014, he trademarked his groundbreaking techniques as Celebrity Arms™ and Celebrity Legs™.
These are the most complete and beautiful liposuction procedures available for the arms and legs—anywhere. And even after ArtLipo has performed over 10,000 of these 360° arm and leg procedures, the rest of the plastic surgery world is just beginning to catch up. Today, less than 2% of surgeons even offer them.
“Specializing in What
No One Else Does!”

DrSu
a true
Figure Artist

Many plastic surgeons claim to be artistic but have never worked with a brush, chisel, or canvas. Dr Thomas Su, the creator of Artlipo is a true figure artist excelling in drawing, painting, and sculpture. Prior to medical school he spent 4 years perfecting his skills in human figure art to earn his degree in Fine Arts.
It’s this deep passion for art that inspired him to develop 360° Arm and Leg Liposuction over a decade ago—long before any other surgeons were performing these advanced techniques.
In the world of lipedema surgery, many surgeons downplay the potential for cosmetic improvement, labeling it strictly a “medical problem.” At Artlipo, whether we’re performing cosmetic or lipedema liposuction, we view every procedure as a form of true art. We hold the highest expectations when it comes to beautifying our patients’ arms & legs—because artistry is at the heart of everything we do.


Liposuction Results You Can See and Trust

While many surgeons claim to be experts, very few have actual experience with 360° arm and leg liposuction—or with treating lipedema. And when it comes to the beauty and quality of results, most simply can’t compare to what we achieve at Artlipo.
We always encourage patients to base their trust on results they can see. You might find information on a surgeon’s website, but if there are no before-and-after photos or videos to back it up, that’s a red flag.
We’ve specialized in this work for years and are extremely proud of our results. We invite you to explore our extensive gallery of patient transformations—with hundreds of videos and photos that showcase the level of artistry and precision we deliver every day.

Awake Lipo Techniques make Lipedema Surgery Safer
At Artlipo our surgeries are all done completely awake using only tumescent local anesthesia. This type of liposuction is the safest way to do cosmetic or lipedema liposuction, and is especially better suited to performing 360 arm and leg liposuction cases. General anesthesia inherently carries risks of potential cardiovascular problems, neurological complications, and blood clots, which awake surgeries do not. Awake surgeries also allow the Artlipo surgeons to use specialized techniques of Interactive Lipo to achieve much better accuracy and smoothness for your surgical outcome. This means more complete removal of fat, and the best cosmetic sculpting and shaping of your arms and legs. We also break the surgery of your full leg into 2 or 3 separate procedures which allows less complications and bleeding, and quicker recovery. Other surgeons who perform much larger surgeries under general anesthesia often have to give their patients fluids or blood transfusions and therefore have to keep their patients in a hospital for 1-2 nights. At Artlipo, we have been performing awake liposuction for almost 20 years and have an impeccable safety record.
