About 360 Liposuction
Liposuction is one of the most commonly performed procedures worldwide, and as such, there are many variations and techniques available. (2) 360 liposuction, often referred to as Lipo360, is a circumferential body contouring procedure that removes unwanted fat deposits from the abdomen, flanks, waist, and back. The goal is not only to reduce fat but also to enhance contour from every visible angle.
Dr. Matlock elevates the traditional 360 liposuction technique by using VASER (Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance) liposuction. This ultrasound-based tool breaks down fat cells with remarkable accuracy while preserving connective tissue and minimizing trauma to the surrounding tissues. (3) The result is a gentler procedure, improved skin tightening, and higher-quality fat that can be used for transfer procedures like a Brazilian Butt Lift.
Benefits
360 liposuction can be beneficial in a variety of ways, especially with Dr. Matlock’s innovative methods. Under his expert care, patients see improvements through:
- Full midsection refinement as the abdomen, love handles, flanks, and back are sculpted in one session
- Enhanced muscle tone through VASER technology, allowing deeper control and high-definition results
- Improved skin retraction from collagen stimulation during ultrasound-assisted fat removal
- Reduced bruising, less trauma to surrounding tissue, and shorter downtime compared to traditional methods
- Smaller, more discreet incisions that result in minimal scarring
- Better fat viability for patients undergoing fat transfer procedures, such as BBL or gluteal enhancement
- Efficient integration with skin tightening treatments or secondary procedures when appropriate
- Single recovery period despite multiple liposuction areas, rather than undergoing staged surgeries
- A refined silhouette that looks natural, balanced, and tailored to the patient’s individual goals
Candidates
360 liposuction with VASER is ideal for men and women who want to refine their physique in a way that looks athletic and natural. Ideal candidates for this treatment often include those who:
- Are at or near their target weight but struggle with visible fat around the waist, flanks, and back
- Have good skin quality or mild laxity that may benefit from skin-tightening adjuncts
- Want muscle definition or are seeking a more contoured, hourglass-like profile
- Are in good health and free of underlying conditions that would interfere with healing
- Are not interested in staged or drawn-out treatments and would prefer one comprehensive session
- Have realistic expectations and are committed to maintaining their results through consistent habits

Preparation
Dr. Matlock will provide comprehensive preoperative instructions to help ensure your safety and maximize your results. You may be asked to:
- Stop taking medications or supplements that thin the blood, as well as alcohol.
- Avoid all nicotine products for several weeks before your procedure.
- Arrange transportation to and from the surgical facility.
- Have someone available to assist you during the first 24 hours of recovery.
- Follow all instructions carefully to help ensure a safe and successful 360 liposuction process.
Procedure
Your 360 liposuction procedure takes place at our accredited surgical facility in Los Angeles, with board-certified anesthesiologists ensuring your comfort and safety throughout. Dr. Matlock begins by making small, precise incisions to access the treatment areas. Using the VASER probe, ultrasonic waves gently emulsify fat while promoting skin contraction and muscle definition. He will carefully remove the fat to sculpt the abdomen, waist, flanks, back, and bra roll areas.
If fat transfer is part of your plan, Dr. Matlock will purify the harvested fat and inject it strategically into other areas of the body. This approach allows for enhancements such as a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) or the Corporate Butt®, providing natural, proportional results in the same session.
For patients needing additional skin tightening, Dr. Matlock may incorporate Tri-Modality Skin Tightening, combining VASER, Renuvion®, and Morpheus8 technologies to achieve smooth, firm, and harmonious results.
The total procedure length varies depending on the areas treated and the enhancements included, but each step is carefully orchestrated to ensure safety, efficiency, and optimal results.
Recovery
Recovery after 360 liposuction is typically quick and manageable, especially with Dr. Matlock’s guidance. Most patients return to light, desk-based work within 3–5 days, while full results continue to develop over 3–6 months. Mild to moderate bruising, swelling, and soreness are expected in the first few days, but these gradually improve as your body heals.
Dr. Matlock will provide detailed aftercare instructions, including the use of compression garments for approximately four weeks, and will remain available to support you throughout your recovery. Following these guidelines ensures the best possible outcome and helps maintain the smooth, sculpted results achieved during your procedure.
Results

When combined with a stable weight and healthy lifestyle, the results of 360 liposuction are long-lasting and natural-looking.

Enhancements like Brazilian Butt Lifts or the Corporate Butt® provide subtle, proportional lift and shape in the buttocks where desired.
Beyond the physical transformation, patients frequently experience renewed confidence and satisfaction, feeling elevated, empowered, and aligned with their ideal self. With Dr. Matlock’s precision techniques and comprehensive approach, 360 Lipo delivers results that are seen and felt in appearance and self-assurance.
