Which Liposuction Procedure Is Right For You – Smart Lipo, Lipo360?

The best liposuction technique varies based on the areas you want to address and your desired outcome. For many patients, SmartLipo is a strong fit, offering controlled fat removal with the added benefit of skin tightening. During your consultation, Dr. Kwak will review your goals and help determine whether liposuction is right for you.

Smart Liposuction

SmartLipo uses laser-assisted technology to target and break down fat while helping stimulate skin tightening in the treated areas. This allows for precise contouring, especially in smaller or more delicate areas, with smoother results and minimal disruption to surrounding tissue.

SmartLipo may be right for you if:

  • You want targeted fat reduction with added skin tightening
  • You’re focusing on smaller or more specific areas of concern
  • You have mild to moderate skin laxity you’d like to improve
  • You’re looking for refined contouring rather than large-volume fat removal

Smart Liposuction

Lipo360 slims your entire midsection, including the abdomen, waist, flanks, and lower back to create smooth curves from every angle. By sculpting all surrounding areas together, this technique creates a more defined waistline and a more sculpted silhouette.

Lipo360 may be right for you if:

  • You want a slimmer, more defined waistline and a balanced silhouette
  • You want to contour multiple areas in one session
  • You want to shape your entire midsection instead of treating one area at a time
  • You’re looking to enhance your proportions from both the front and back

No Anesthesia. No Downtime. One Simple, In-Office Procedure.

Lumen Center’s laser-assisted liposuction is designed to remove stubborn fat without the need for general anesthesia or a surgical hospital setting. The procedure is performed comfortably in our office using advanced laser technology that gently targets and liquefies fat before it’s removed.

Because this approach is less invasive than traditional liposuction, most patients experience minimal disruption to their daily routine. There’s no lengthy recovery period, no anesthesia hangover, and no extended time away from work or family. Many people return to normal activities the same day or shortly after treatment.

Areas Where Advanced Liposuction Can Shape and Refine Your Body

When that stubborn fat just won’t budge no matter what you do, liposuction can slim your silhouette and create the curves you’ve always wanted. Dr. Kwak will personalize your treatment plan based on your goals and areas of concern.

Liposuction can eliminate fat in areas like:

  • Abdomen
  • Waist and love handles
  • Lower back
  • Inner and outer thighs
  • Upper arms
  • Upper and lower back
  • Chin and neck

“I truly appreciated how much attention they paid to my comfort throughout the entire treatment.” – Why Patients Choose Lumen

How Much Does Liposuction Cost at the Lumen Center?

Abdomen

The abdomen is one of the most common areas for liposuction, especially for those with stubborn fat that doesn’t respond to diet and exercise. Whether it’s the upper or lower abdomen, liposuction can help create a flatter, more defined midsection.

Your liposuction cost depends on several factors, including:

  • Local anesthesia fees: SmartLipo can be performed in-office without general anesthesia, but traditional liposuction and Lipo360 procedures may require IV sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the extent of treatment and the areas being addressed. 
  • The size and number of areas you want treated: Single areas cost less than multi-area or combination procedures
  • Optional Renuvion® skin tightening to smooth and firm your results
  • Compression garments to support your healing
  • Follow-up visits to ensure a smooth recovery


We’ll provide a clear, all-inclusive quote during your consultation, so you’ll know exactly what to expect. 

We make liposuction more accessible with flexible monthly financing plans. Through partners like PatientFi,CareCredit, and United Medical Credit, you can choose a payment plan that fits your budget, including 0% interest options for qualified applicants, so you can get your dream body without breaking the bank.

What Happens as You Recover from Liposuction

As you recover from lipo, Dr. Kwak checks in with you at every stage to make sure you’re healing properly.

Here’s what you can expect:

  • Day 1: Mild swelling and fullness are normal; you’ll rest at home and keep your compression garment on as instructed.
  • Week 1: Most soreness fades, swelling starts to subside, and you may feel ready to return to work or light activity.
  • Weeks 2–4: Your new shape starts to show as bruising continues to fade.
  • After One Month: You’ll notice a more defined contour, and your final results will continue to take shape over the next few months.

Common Questions We Hear From Our Patients

Your results can last for many years as long as you maintain a stable weight. Once fat cells are removed, they don’t return, and your slimmer contours stay with you.

No. Liposuction isn’t a weight-loss procedure; it’s a shaping procedure. You’ll get a more defined silhouette, even if the number on the scale doesn’t change much.

The amount of fat we remove depends on the areas you want to treat and your overall goals. Dr. Kwak focuses on creating smooth contours rather than removing the maximum volume.

You’ll see early improvements within a few weeks, and your shape continues to refine as swelling fades. Most patients see their final results develop over two to three months.

Most patients achieve their goals with one treatment session. If you want to shape multiple areas or build on your results over time, Dr. Kwak will recommend the right plan for you.
