Patient Details
This patient, with BMI >30, wanted to reshape her figure by creating a slimmer waist, improving overall body proportions, and restoring feminine curves. Despite her efforts, stubborn fat around the abdomen, flanks, back, bra line, and neck prevented her from achieving the silhouette she desired.
Dr. Mihail Climov pefrormed Circumferential 360° Power-Assisted Liposuction, a comprehensive body contouring procedure that sculpts the entire torso rather than treating isolated areas. By addressing the abdomen, flanks, back, bra line, and neck together, the procedure creates a more balanced, harmonious contour and significantly improves the waistline from every angle.
Rather than discarding the healthy fat removed during liposuction, it was carefully purified and transferred to the buttocks using ultrasound-guided gluteal fat grafting (Brazilian Butt Lift) to naturally enhance projection and improve the waist-to-hip ratio.
This case also demonstrates an important point: patients with a BMI over 30 can still be excellent candidates for body contouring when they have realistic expectations. The goal of 360 liposuction is not weight loss—it is to reshape the body, improve proportions, and create a more sculpted silhouette. While patients with a lower BMI may achieve more visible muscle definition, patients with a higher BMI often experience dramatic improvements in clothing fit, waist definition, and overall body confidence.
Procedures Performed
Why Choose 360 Liposuction?
Unlike traditional liposuction that focuses on one problem area, 360 liposuction treats the body circumferentially. By removing stubborn fat from the abdomen, waist, flanks, back, and bra line, the entire torso is reshaped into a more balanced, feminine silhouette.
This comprehensive approach often produces more natural-looking results because it improves the body's proportions from every angle rather than simply flattening the abdomen.
When combined with a Brazilian Butt Lift, the harvested fat can be used to enhance the buttocks instead of being discarded, creating a more dramatic improvement in the waist-to-hip ratio.
Can You Have 360 Liposuction with a Higher BMI?
Yes. Many patients wonder if they are "too heavy" for liposuction.
While candidacy is determined by overall health, skin quality, fat distribution, and individual anatomy—not BMI alone—patients with a BMI over 30 can often achieve excellent body contouring results.
The objective is not to make every patient look like a fitness model, but to create the best possible version of their natural shape. For many patients, 360 liposuction provides:
Benefits of 360 Liposuction
Individual results may vary. Body contouring results continue to improve for several months as swelling resolves and tissues settle into their final shape.
