Fat Removal Treatments, What Works and How to Choose

The Gap Between Effort and Results

You eat well, exercise consistently, and the scale shows progress. But certain areas — the lower belly, flanks, chin — refuse to change. This is not a willpower issue. Localized fat deposits are largely genetic, and they often resist even the most disciplined lifestyle. That reality is what leads millions to explore fat removal treatments each year.

Surgical vs. Non-Surgical Fat Removal Treatments

Non-Surgical Options

Cryolipolysis (CoolSculpting) and laser lipolysis (SculpSure) damage fat cells through controlled cooling or heating, triggering apoptosis — a natural cell death process that gradually reduces the fat layer over several weeks. Clinical studies generally report around 20–25% fat layer reduction per session in the treated area. No incision, no downtime. But results take two to three months to appear, and multiple sessions are often needed. These methods reshape contours rather than reduce body weight.

At 365mc, this gap is addressed through LAMS — a proprietary minimally invasive fat removal technique developed specifically for localized fat.

Surgical Liposuction

Liposuction physically removes fat cells, delivering immediate and more substantial contouring. It allows precise body sculpting that non-surgical methods cannot match. Recovery time has improved with modern techniques, though some downtime remains expected. Potential side effects include bruising, swelling, and temporary discomfort.

LAMS: minimally invasive fat extraction

Many people focus solely on which procedure to choose but overlook who performs it. The experience and focus of your medical team matters just as much.

365mc has spent over 20 years exclusively focused on obesity treatment and body contouring. With more than 6.75 million documented treatment cases, this specialized volume directly enhances precision and safety. Their Big Data Result Predictor, built on this massive clinical dataset, allows patients to preview personalized body shape predictions before any procedure — bringing clarity to what can otherwise feel like an uncertain decision.

For those hesitant about surgery, 365mc also developed LAMS (Local Anesthetic Minimal-Invasive Liposuction), a proprietary procedure that extracts fat without general anesthesia, incisions, or compression garments.

Choosing the Right Fat Removal Treatment

The right choice among fat removal treatments depends on the volume of fat, target areas, your tolerance for downtime, and expected results. A professional assessment from a specialized team can clarify which path fits your body and goals.

365mc offers personalized online consultations for international patients — a practical first step before any commitment.
