360 Liposuction vs. Traditional Liposuction
Traditional liposuction typically focuses on a single, isolated area such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks and removes fat from that region without addressing its relationship to surrounding contours. This approach may leave uneven transitions or a less cohesive shape. 360 liposuction in Charleston, SC, takes a more comprehensive, circumferential approach. Fat is strategically removed from the front, sides, and back of the torso during the same procedure, allowing Dr. Ulm to sculpt the entire midsection as one unified unit. This method prioritizes balance, proportion, and smooth contour flow, and can often produce a more natural-looking waistline and refined silhouette than treating one area at a time.
In some cases, fat removed from the lower back can be transferred to the buttocks, enhancing lift, fullness, and overall shape refining the silhouette from every angle as part of the same procedure. To further enhance and complement these results, Dr. Ulm offers two advanced treatment modalities exclusive to the Charleston area. He was the first in South Carolina to introduce AYON, a state-of-the-art body contouring treatment that represents the next generation of non and minimally invasive body refinement. He is also home to Charleston's first and only HALO® TRIBRID™ by Sciton, an industry-leading laser platform that delivers exceptional skin resurfacing and rejuvenation results.
