What is 360 Liposculpture?
Traditional Liposuction vs. 360 Liposculpture
- Traditional Liposuction: Focuses on localized fat removal but doesn’t sculpt the body comprehensively.
- 360 Liposculpture: Provides a full-body sculpting approach, ensuring a harmonious, well-defined physique by treating the abdomen, waistline, back, and flanks together.
Ideal Candidates for 360 Liposculpture
- Individuals looking for full-body contouring rather than isolated fat removal.
- Patients who are near their goal weight but struggle with stubborn fat pockets.
- Those seeking muscle definition, a more sculpted look, or waistline reduction.
Liposuction Techniques at Rattinan
BodyTite 360 – Fat Removal with Skin Tightening
BodyTite 360 uses radiofrequency-assisted liposuction (RFAL) to remove stubborn fat and tighten skin at the same time. It melts fat before removal, while the heat stimulates collagen production, helping the skin contract and firm up naturally.
Best for These Areas
- Abdomen: Flattens and firms the stomach
- Love Handles: Sculpts a slimmer waist
- Back Fat: Smooths bra bulges and contours the back
Result
360-degree fat reduction with skin tightening in one treatment—less sagging, more definition, and minimal downtime.
High-Definition Liposuction – Precision Body Sculpting
Microaire PAL removes fat and enhances muscle definition for a toned, athletic look.
Perfect for
- Six-pack abs
- Slim waistline
- Sculpted lower back
Result
Sharper contours, visible muscle lines, and a fitter appearance.
J-Plasma for Skin Tightening
J Plasma Uses plasma energy to firm and contract skin post-liposuction, preventing sagging.
- Recommended for patients with moderate skin laxity who want smoother, tighter skin.
VASER Liposuction
It uses ultrasound to break down fat before removal. This advanced method ensures smoother results, with less tissue damage, making it ideal for delicate contours or a refined look.
Each technique offers unique benefits based on your body goals. At Rattinan, we provide all these services. In general, BodyTite is a fantastic option for toning your body.
Post Operative Care
- Compression Garments
Wear compression garments 24 hours a day for the first 3 days, followed by 12 hours daily for 1 to 3 months to support healing and reduce swelling. - Bathing and Dizziness Precautions
Avoid bathing on the first day post-surgery, and do not remove the compression garment alone initially, as dizziness or fainting may occur. - Follow-up Care
Attend a wound dressing appointment the day after surgery. Wounds should be cleaned every other day, and stitches are typically removed around 7 days post-procedure. - Massage for Seroma Prevention
After stitch removal, manual massage of the treated areas is recommended to reduce the risk of seroma formation. Use of a massage machine can begin after 2 weeks. - Exercise Guidelines
Light walking is encouraged soon after surgery to prevent blood clots. Light exercise can begin after 2 weeks, while vigorous activities can resume after about 1 month. - Dietary Guidelines
Stay hydrated by drinking at least 1-2 liters of water on the day of surgery. Avoid alcohol, smoking, fermented foods, and raw or semi-raw foods until stitches are removed. Focus on high-protein foods and limit starchy and salty foods containing high sodium for at least 2 weeks to aid healing and reduce swelling. - Pain Management
Mild pain, bruising, and swelling are normal and can be managed with prescribed medications.
Risks and Complications
Like any surgical procedure, liposuction carries some risks:
- Infection
- Bleeding or haematoma
- Irregular skin contours or asymmetry
- Scarring
- Fluid accumulation (seroma)
- Changes in skin sensation (temporary or permanent)
- Fat embolism (rare but serious)
- Adverse reactions to anaesthesia
Results
- Results are typically long-lasting if a stable weight is maintained.
- Treated areas appear slimmer and more contoured.
- Some skin tightening may occur, but liposuction does not address significant skin laxity.
Final results may take 3–6 months to fully develop as swelling subsides.
