Liposuction 360

The new paradigm in body sculpture and liposuction that contours and shapes the entire midsection region. Sculpting around the midsection (360 degrees) provides a more uniform and toned appearance. Treatment is customized by Dr. Burke according to your unique goals, helping you achieve a firm, toned, sculptured look.


This procedure is most commonly performed in the midsection: upper and lower abdomen, flanks, sacral region, lower back, upper lateral back and waist. The same principals may also be applied for the upper arms and shoulder regions, legs, knees and thighs.

About Liposuction 360 in Ann Arbor

Lipo 360 vs Traditional Lipo

Traditional lipo is highly targeted and does not extend beyond the designated area.

On the other hand, Lipo 360 provides a way to focus all the way around your body. The 360 lipo method includes removing fat from problematic areas like the abdomen, the lateral and posterior waist, the hips, and the back bra roll. In a sense, 360 Lipo “wraps” around the entire midsection without overlooking any area.


Using Lipo 360, Dr. Burke can customize body sculpting and contouring in a way that is revolutionary compared to traditional, static treatments, like regular lipo, which focuses on fat removal from just one specific area of the body.

Does Lipo 360 Get Better Results than Traditional Lipo??

A common question we hear from patients is whether Lipo 360 will give them better results than traditional lipo surgery.

Many people find that Lipo 360 results are better than the results from regular lipo (This is because Dr. Burke treats the entire circumference of the body). This results in a slimmer, more proportionate, and attractive body. Traditional lipo surgery is not performed with the entire physique in mind,
and focuses on just singular treatment areas.

360 Lipo goal is all about the patient’s final proportions, making it the preferred option of the two procedures.

Recovery Time

Like traditional liposuction, Lipo 360 involves recovery. The treatment areas may bruise after the procedure and may be sore. Most patients take time away from work and other daily activities to rest, recover, and heal. Depending on your body, you may be able to return to work within a week or less. It is recommended that you avoid strenuous exercise or activities for several weeks longer, depending on how your body is
healing.

Lipo 360 vs Tummy Tuck

Lipo 360 focuses on fat removal. While it is a revolutionary take on fat reduction, it is not a procedure for addressing loose or excess skin. 

A tummy tuck surgery focuses on eliminating extra or excess skin in areas like the abdomen. This procedure is a good choice for people who have lost significant weight and now struggle with excess skin hanging over their lower abdomen.

Can You Combine Lipo 360 with Other Procedures?

Yes! It is common to combine lipo 360 with Aveli to reduce the appearance of cellulite. Lipo 360 is an excellent choice to reduce
fat in the stomach area. However, it does not address loose or sagging skin. This is why many people select to combine this lipo procedure with other surgical treatments like a Mommy Makeover. Other popular procedures combined with Lipo 360 treatments include breast augmentation and breast lifts.

Who are Lipo 360 degree candidates?

  • Wanting highly targeted fat loss (not weight loss) 
  • In good health with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of less than 35

Recovery Time

Like traditional liposuction, Lipo 360 involves recovery. The treatment areas may bruise after the procedure and may be sore. Most patients take time away from work and other daily activities to rest, recover, and heal. Depending on your body, you may be able to return to work within a week or less. It is recommended that you avoid strenuous exercise or activities for several weeks longer, depending on how your body is
