Book NoLipo 360 differs from other liposuction techniques because it targets the entire circumference of your torso to eliminate stubborn fat from the abdomen, sides and lower back. It creates balanced contours with smooth transitions and a beautifully defined waistline. By addressing all of these areas at once from multiple angles, Lipo 360 provides comprehensive and seamless results that will have you beach body ready after a single treatment with minimal downtime.
Learn MoreIf you’re looking to go the extra mile and maximize your results, fat transfer and skin tightening procedures can help you achieve the best possible outcome. Fat transfer takes the unwanted fat that is removed during liposuction and uses it to enhance other areas of the body, such as the face, breasts or buttocks. Skin tightening uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to reduce sagging and promote skin retraction for smooth body contours that look firm and natural.
Learn MoreAfter Lipo 360, you’ll notice an improvement in your body contours instantly. However, your results will continue to develop as swelling decreases over the next month or two. Once your final contours emerge, unwanted fat will be significantly reduced throughout your torso, giving you beautiful curves and a more defined waistline that looks great on the beach or at home.
Dr. Hakimi uses meticulous techniques to target stubborn fat from multiple angles, providing a balanced outcome that is proportionate with the rest of your body. With proper diet and exercise, you can expect to maintain these results indefinitely, as fat cells that are removed won’t come back. However, some fat is always left behind to prevent thinning skin and wrinkles, so any weight gain can still be seen in treated areas, although perhaps not to the same extent.
Lipo 360 with Dr. Hakimi starts with a private consultation, either virtually or at his Beverly Hills office. During your consultation, he will discuss your goals and evaluate your concerns to develop a personalized treatment plan just for you. He will also explain the treatment process and what you can expect to help you make an informed decision regarding your procedure.
When you arrive for your surgery, Dr. Hakimi will apply markings to the treatment areas for precision and administer the appropriate type of anesthesia. Lipo 360 is often performed as an awake procedure, but general anesthesia might be used depending on your preferences and treatment plan. Once you’re comfortable, he will make small incisions and insert a thin tool called a cannula, briskly moving it back and forth to break up and remove unwanted fat.
Dr. Hakimi relies on his advanced training and expertise to sculpt perfectly balanced contours that dramatically enhance your natural curves. Lipo 360 takes only an hour or so to complete, after which you’ll be free to return home the same day and begin the recovery process.
The recovery period after Lipo 360 is generally straightforward and tolerable. While you may require some time off from work and other activities, you should be able to resume your normal routine within a week. However, strenuous exercise should be avoided for a little longer — be sure to follow all guidelines and post-op directions provided by Dr. Hakimi for optimal healing.
To reduce swelling and promote skin retraction, you will be required to wear a compression garment for several weeks. Use this as directed by Dr. Hakimi. He may also recommend lymphatic massages to further alleviate swelling, improve blood flow and minimize bruising. If you have any questions during your recovery, you are encouraged to reach out to Dr. Hakimi — he will be able to address your concerns and provide you with an easy, stress-free experience.
During Lipo 360, Dr. Hakimi performs liposuction of the upper and lower back, waist and flanks, and upper and lower abdomen. Not all Lipo 360s are created equally — some doctors don’t include the lower back and “bra rolls” in their procedures. The results are not the same when the entire area is not addressed.
The entry points used during Lipo 360 are very small and strategically placed in areas that can be easily concealed by undergarments, swimsuits and other clothing. Two entry points are made low in the pubic area, one inside the belly button, and one each in the crease of the buttocks and armpit. Once your incisions heal, they fade and become less visible, to the extent that others probably won’t even notice them.
Lipo 360 is a body contouring procedure designed to target areas of stubborn fat and sculpt a slimmer, more toned figure. While this may result in you wearing a smaller clothing size, it doesn’t translate to significant weight loss. For the best possible outcome, Dr. Hakimi recommends that patients be at or within a few pounds of their ideal weight before undergoing liposuction. If you’re having trouble losing weight, medical weight loss with semaglutide or tirzepatide can help — talk to Dr. Hakimi to learn more about your options.
In California, the maximum amount of fat and fluid that can be removed during a single liposuction procedure is 5 liters, or about 11 pounds. This limit is in place to ensure your health and safety, and is more than enough to achieve outstanding results.
