Liposuction of the abdomen typically run around $4500-5500 on special.

Liposuction - Costs/Likelihood of Skin Sagging Afterward
Hi munster1227,
Cost vary tremendously from region to region (of the country), and even within a given region of the country from surgeon to surgeon. Some of these costs depend on where the surgeon operates (working in a hospital or ambulatory surgery facility often costs more than when the surgeon operates in his or her own office, or has greater control over the costs of the facility). Finally, though, some surgeons just charge more than others. There are, of course,...
