Lipo 360 in Tijuana, Mexico

What can a lipo 360 fix?

Planning your lipo 360 with Dr. Juan Cuéllar

Your surgeon walks you through the procedure, the plan and the recovery on your video call before you book.

Which type of lipo 360 do I need?

• Tumescent technique with power-assisted or ultrasound-assisted cannulas as indicated
• Treated circumferentially so transitions are smooth
• 1.5–3 hours under general anesthesia, usually outpatient with one night in the hospital for travelling patients

Am I a good candidate for a lipo 360?

• Within about 30% of your goal weight; BMI under 32
• Stubborn fat around the midsection with reasonable skin tone
• Realistic expectations: liposuction shapes, it does not treat loose skin or stretch marks

How much does a lipo 360 cost in Tijuana?

Your price is given in writing before you book and covers the surgeon, anesthesiologist, hospital, nursing, your recovery stay, airport transfers and follow-up visits. The final figure depends on your medical evaluation.

What are the risks of a lipo 360?

• Bleeding, infection, fluid collection (seroma) and delayed wound healing
• Scarring — every incision leaves a permanent scar; placement is planned to be hidden by clothing where possible
• Asymmetry or contour irregularities that may need a revision
• Changes in skin sensation, usually temporary
• Blood clots (DVT/PE) — risk is reduced with early walking, compression devices and, for some patients, anticoagulants
• Anesthesia-related risks, reviewed with you by the anesthesiologist
• Travel-specific considerations: we require a minimum stay in Tijuana before clearing you to fly, and we coordinate aftercare with your home physician

How we manage them: surgery in a hospital with ICU support, a dedicated anesthesiologist, DVT precautions before and after surgery, and in-person follow-up before you are cleared to fly home.

How long do lipo 360 results last?

Removed fat cells do not return, but remaining cells can grow with weight gain. Stable weight keeps the result; the final contour shows at 3–6 months.

Individual results vary.
