360° liposuction in Turkey, Prices of Istanbul Clinics

What is 360° liposuction?

Unlike traditional, targeted liposuction, 360° liposuction takes a comprehensive approach, reshaping your entire abdominal area. It addresses all angles: stomach, flanks (love handles),and lower back to create a balanced, natural-looking silhouette.

When excess fat is distributed all around the waist, treating only one area can lead to an unbalanced look. 360° liposuction harmonizes your shape in a single procedure, avoiding uneven results that partial treatments can create.

For some patients, this approach can be part of a full body contouring plan. Depending on your body type, the surgeon may also recommend refining the thighs, arms, or other areas to achieve an even more cohesive result.

Are you a good candidate ?

360° liposuction is ideal for individuals in good overall health who are close to their target weight but have stubborn, localized fat around the waist, stomach, flanks, and lower back.

The ideal candidate:

• Has maintained a stable weight for at least 6 months, usually with a BMI under 30.
• Has good skin elasticity to allow for smooth, natural-looking results after fat removal.
• Has realistic expectations: liposuction shapes and refines the body, but is not a solution for major weight loss or severe cellulite.
• Is a non-smoker, or willing to stop smoking before and after surgery to ensure optimal healing.

What you should know: Limitations

This technique is not suitable for everyone. It may not be recommended if you have:

• Severe obesity or significant weight fluctuations.
• Major skin laxity that requires a combined procedure (such as liposuction with skin removal).
• Uncontrolled medical conditions (heart, metabolic, or blood-clotting issues, etc.).

360° liposuction is not a substitute for a healthy lifestyle. The best results are achieved and maintained by patients who already practice good habits.

The final decision always comes down to medical expertise. Only a certified plastic surgeon, during a thorough consultation, can evaluate your eligibility. They will assess your skin, body shape, and goals to determine whether 360° liposuction is the right option or if another approach would be better.

Preparing for a 360° liposuction in Turkey

Your transformation starts long before the procedure itself. With Turquie Santé, you benefit from a structured, safe, and reassuring preparation process designed to help you arrive at your surgery confident, informed, and in the best possible condition.

How your procedure takes place in Turkey

Your 360° liposuction is performed in an accredited partner clinic in Turkey, under the full supervision of your surgeon and a dedicated medical team, including an anesthesiologist and experienced nurses.

The procedure typically lasts 2 to 4 hours, depending on how many areas are being treated.

Technique used

Most surgeons use ultrasound-assisted liposuction (VASER) for this procedure. This technology gently emulsifies the fat before it's removed, helping preserve connective tissues, nerves, and blood vessels. As a result, patients can expect:

• More precise and harmonious body contouring
• Less bleeding and bruising
• A potentially smoother and faster recovery

Following the markings made during your pre-operative consultation, the surgeon inserts fine micro-cannulas through very small, discreet incisions. Fat is then removed evenly around the full 360° of your torso, gradually refining the contours to create a balanced and natural silhouette.

After the procedure

Right after surgery, you'll be taken to the recovery room for close monitoring before returning to your room. A compression garment will be placed immediately to support the tissues and reduce swelling.

Your Turquie Santé coordinator stays in contact with the clinic throughout the entire procedure and can update your loved ones if you wish.

Post-operative care and recovery

Recovery after a 360° liposuction is gradual and can vary slightly from one patient to another, depending on the areas treated and the technique used. Here's what you can generally expect to help you move through this stage with confidence.

The first few days

Once you leave the clinic:

• Rest and light movement: Rest is important, but gentle walking is encouraged to promote healthy blood circulation.
• Compression garment: You will need to wear it immediately after surgery. It supports the tissues, reduces swelling, and helps the skin retract smoothly.
• Mild to moderate discomfort: Any discomfort is usually well managed with the medications prescribed by your surgeon.

The following weeks

As the days go by:

• Swelling and bruising: These are normal and may last 2 to 4 weeks, gradually improving over time.
• Returning to daily activities: Most patients can resume their normal routine within 7 to 14 days, depending on their comfort and the surgeon's recommendations.
• Additional care: Lymphatic drainage massages or pressotherapy sessions may be recommended to support healing and enhance the final results.

Your 360° liposuction results: Timeline & expectations

The results of your 360° liposuction appear gradually over the weeks and continue to refine as your body heals. Here's what you can typically expect, along with our tips to help you enjoy your new contours long term.

How your new shape evolves

• At 1 month: Most of the initial swelling has gone down. You'll start noticing your new contours and a slimmer waistline. Wearing your compression garment is still very important.
• At 3 months: The majority of the swelling has disappeared. Your shape becomes much more defined, and your skin continues to retract naturally to match your new curves.
• At 6 months and beyond: This is your final result. The swelling has fully resolved, revealing your new silhouette: a flatter abdomen, slimmer flanks, and a more sculpted back, achieving harmony that dieting and exercise alone often cannot provide.

Benefits reported by our patients

Beyond the numbers, most patients describe meaningful changes in their daily life: wearing clothes that fit better, feeling more comfortable in swimwear, and experiencing a renewed sense of ease and confidence in their own body.

Our recommendations

To maintain your 360° liposuction results over the long term, our surgeons recommend:

• Keeping a balanced lifestyle (healthy eating and regular physical activity).
• Avoiding significant weight fluctuations (± 5 kg / ± 10 lbs).
• Following all postoperative instructions from your surgeon and your Turquie Santé coordinator.
