Plastic Surgery and Liposuction Experts
World’s Leading Clinic in Arm Liposuction and Ankle Liposuction
Tampa, Clearwater, and St. Pete, Florida
ArtLipo and Plastic Surgery
Has been proudly serving patients in the Tampa, Clearwater, and St. Pete areas for over 12 years. Not only do we treat patients from all over the state of Florida, we also have patients that travel from across the US and internationally to receive our specialty plastic surgery procedures. Our advanced liposuction procedures produce the best results and our technique is offered by few other clinics in the world. We also offer a full range of plastic surgery procedures from two of the most highly skilled plastic surgeons in the Tampa Bay area.
The word “Art” in our name is not a gimmick
It is the core value and belief the clinic was founded on, and what defines the practice. We are all artists as well as surgeons, and our work shows why we are passionate about what we do. Our plastic surgeons, Dr. Meegan Gruber and Dr. Kristopher Hamwi, both have extensive backgrounds in art, and our founder, Dr. Thomas Su, has a degree in Fine Arts. We believe that great plastic surgery and liposuction results come from having an artistic approach, paired seamlessly with extensive experience and proven skills.
This mindset is what separates our surgeons and their results from those of other practices. A common misconception is that all plastic surgeons are artistic, but this simply is not the case. Artistic skill is not a prerequisite to get into a plastic surgery training program. As a result, not all plastic surgeons produce great cosmetic results and many do not show much of their work. Our surgeons possess a deeper aesthetic vision than that of traditional plastic surgeons. As a potential patient, it is important to make a decision on what you can see. As artists and surgeons, we are passionate about what we create for our patients and are proud to show off our results. Other plastic surgery practices seldom show you the amount of before and after pictures, or live patient videos that prove the quality of their work like we do. We pride ourselves in being completely transparent to all of our potential and existing patients.
In choosing the best plastic surgeon or liposuction expert, we believe that honesty, trust, and good communication is essential. Our patients usually come to us with concerns about a certain part of their body they may feel insecure about. However, as experts in the field, we often can present options that our patients had not originally thought of. For example, a patient wishing to have larger breasts may come in for a breast augmentation consultation. However, if this patient also has a bulging tummy and waist, slimming these areas to create an hourglass shape may be more important to improving her overall figure, as well as make the breasts naturally appear larger. As plastic and cosmetic surgeons, we will always listen to your concerns, but we will also look at the bigger picture and explain all of your options in detail. We will also guide you to make an informed decision by offering our opinion, and we’ll show you lots of examples to help you visualize for yourself. We believe this kind of honesty and communication is what makes us your best choice for a plastic surgeon.
The World's Most Advanced Liposuction Clinic

The clinic founder, Dr. Thomas Su has developed a number of innovative techniques of performing liposuction for optimal completeness, accuracy, and skin tightening. These techniques have allowed our surgeons to create results in all body areas that surpass that of the vast majority of other surgeons performing liposuction. (read more about our techniques)
We are amazingly the world’s leading clinic in two particular areas, Arm Liposuction and Ankle Liposuction.
Our Celebrity Arms high definition arm liposuction is revolutionary, and was created by Dr. Su and is not offered by any other clinic in the world. This is a trademarked procedure that gives spectacular results never thought possible by the plastic surgery community. We perform Celebrity Arms liposuction over 30 times a month and perform more arm liposuction than any other practice in the world.
Our other specialty, ankle/cankle liposuction is a procedure that less than 5% of other plastic surgeons have ever performed or are willing to perform. Even those surgeons who have done it, probably have performed less than 10 in their entire career. We are the world leader in this surgery not only because we do it beautifully, but also because we have more experience than any other clinic in the world. At the time of this writing, we have had over 300 extremely satisfied ankle clients.
We are also proud that the majority of our clients come from all over the world to have liposuction procedures. More than 30 clients a month come from other states and other countries because of our exceptional work and exclusive procedures.
Celebrity Arms™ Liposuction - Revolutionary Arm Sculpting!
Celebrity Arms™ is a revolutionary trademarked procedure that creates the leanest, most sculpted and toned looking arms that no other surgeons have ever created before. Traditional arm liposuction only removes a small portion of fat from the lower hang of the arm leaving the arm looking bulky or otherwise undefined in the other 70% that is not even touched. All surgeons are taught to leave these other areas including the sides of the arms and top of the arms and shoulders alone since these areas are considered too difficult. Dr. Su, Dr. Gruber and Dr. Hamwi have taken arm liposuction to the extreme by removing fat ultra-completely and in a high definition manner in all areas of the arm and shoulder to give patients a toned and contoured look never before possible, which also results in tighter looking skin. This procedure is the first of its kind to produce this type of result and is currently only offered at Artistic Liposuction & Plastic Surgery where it was created.

Giving birth is the most special event in a mother’s life. However, the consequences of going through pregnancy and nursing can have negative lasting effects that no amount of exercise or proper diet can fix. Our plastic surgeons are experts at restoring your body back to its pre-baby shape and tightness. A mommy makeover surgery is meant to get your body back in shape and is made up of whatever combination of procedures you need specifically. This could be a breast lift or augmentation, or possibly a tummy tuck and liposuction. Our surgeons will help you determine what surgeries are right for you.
