Expect to pay about $5000 for abdomen and love handles liposuction

We charge roughly $6000 for the liposuction of the upper and lower abdomen and love handles and $750 for the operating room when done under the tumescent technique with the micro cannulas. We, like many docs, offer discount specials from time to time. Currently we are offering 30% off so that would bring the price to alittle under $5000 as rough estimate. There is no anesthesia fee since you don't want it done under general anesthesia if you want to get the best results. Labs run about... more

Liposuction costs are different everywhere

Call around to doctors that have worked on your friends and family. See who comes recommended, and then go in for a consultation. At that point you can consider the costs. There is usually a big variation in fees, so expect a wide range. Another good rule of thumb is to understand that these procedures cost more in certain parts of the country than in others. For instance, in California and New York, you might pay anywhere from $8000 to $12000 for breast implants, but in less... more

Battle of The Bulge - Costs For Liposuction Of Belly and Love Handles

In my practice in Sarasota, Florida we determine the cost of liposuction based on the number of areas done plus operating room costs and anesthesia.

Since this is a total of two areas the cost is $2680 ($1340 per site) plus anesthesia and OR costs of about $2200 more for a total cost of $4880. I notice on Real Self that these cost vary widely depending... more

Liposcution fees

The fees for liposuction  vary across the country and certainly for the amount of areas needed to be treated.  Don't fixate so much on price. Look for quality work.  Like the Visa commercial.  Bad results $20....Great results Priceless!

Liposuction Pricing

Difficult to say as it depends on your area.  Even them surgeons charge different prices, so there is no standard rate. You are probably looking in the $5000 range.

Price for liposuction

There is no standard price for cosmetic surgery. Geographic location is probably the best single determinant of price. Liposuction is usually charged by the area. Your desired locations would probably be considered 2 areas. In addition to the surgeon's fee, there is also anesthesia and facility fees. Without examining you and not knowing where you live, I would guess the price range for your desired procedure (including anesthesia and facility fess) is between $4000-8000.... more
