The best 360 lipo doctors can offer treatment for several areas of the body, including the legs and arms. Finding a surgeon who can offer options can prove challenging, because most cosmetic surgeons only offer 360 lipo on the midsection of the body. That is why it’s so important to find the right surgeon to perform your procedure.
How Is 360 Lipo Different From Regular Lipo?
Many people think that 360 lipo and regular lipo are the same things. That isn’t the case at all. The clue lies in the term “360,” which refers to 360 degrees – the circumference of the body part. When carrying out 360 lipo, the surgeon treats the front, back, and sides of the area they’re treating. Meanwhile, with standard lipo, surgeons only treat part of the area. For example, regular lipo of the arm only treats the underhang. 360 lipo of the arm, meanwhile, treats the underhang, sides, top, and shoulder too. As a result, the surgeon removes a lot more fat and produces a more complete, comprehensive outcome for the patient. Patients look slimmer and more toned after 360 lipo than after a regular liposuction treatment.

Do All Cosmetic Surgeons Offer 360 Lipo?
Many cosmetic surgeons offer 360 lipo. However, not all cosmetic surgeons mean the same thing when they offer this treatment. In most cases, surgeons refer to only the midsection of the body when offering 360 lipo. When they advertise 360 lipo surgery, they aim to treat the waist, stomach, love handles, and lower back. They don’t usually treat other body areas like the legs and arms.
Only a specialist surgeon offers 360 lipo for other body parts. Dr. Su at ArtLipo is an expert surgeon who can offer 360 liposuction on many areas of the body.
ArtLipo’s 360 Lipo Procedures
Dr. Su at ArtLipo takes a very different approach to 360-degree liposuction. While he offers this treatment for the midsection like other surgeons, he also offers it for the legs and arms. When treating the arms, Dr. Su removes fat from the underhang, sides, top, and shoulder too. The comprehensive nature of this treatment means that he can remove as much as 90% of arm fat. Standard arm lipo typically removes less than 50% of fat from the arm. As a result, patients are usually far happier with their outcomes. They benefit from a far slimmer and more toned-looking arm with clear muscle visibility.
When treating the legs, Dr. Su will remove fat from their entire circumference, not just the inner or outer thighs. For example, his cankle lipo treatment addresses the 360-degree curve of the ankle and calf. That allows him to create the most sculpted and attractive outcome.
