This is not a medically necessary procedure so insurance will not cover this. Seek an evaluation by a board certified PS to determine the best path ahead.
no insurance doesnt cover anything cosmetic unfortunately.You need a formal evaluation by an expert in body shaping and contouring to determine what is best. Traditional liposuction awake and smart liposuction are old methods and do very poorly for tightening skin or significant skin tightening or contouring. Small problem areas can be improved slightly by these methods. The best in body contouring not only removes fat with energy devices like VASER ultrasound but also internally heat the skin with radio-frequency devices such as J PLASMA/RENUVION, InMode BodyTite, ThermiRF to heat the under surface of the skin and tighten it at the same time as fat removal. These combinations are called 4D HIDEF VASER contouring and can only be done by a well . trained body contouring specialist. At the same time fat should be harvested, PRP and stem cells added and injected into muscles or indentations/cellulite to get body shaping and contouring. This is known as a Brazilian butt lift when you inject the fat to the buttock for contouring and lifting, but fat can also be used in areas such as the chest/breast, arms/shoulders, calves and face. Cellulite should also be treated with cellfina, sculptra, subcision and/or fillers such as bellafill, renuva synthetic fat, or sculptra. If skin is very loose before surgery then it will need to be removed such as lower abdominal skin (tummy tuck/abdominoplasty), breast skin (breast lift), arm skin (brachioplasty). Overall you need a full assessment, but simple liposuction alone will not tighten skin and needs a combination of various methods -- fat removal, skin tightening, defining, fat grafting, skin removal -- to get the best in body contouring and body sculpting.

Sorry but liposuction is purely cosmetic and not a covered service under any insurance whatsoever. It doesn’t matter if injury related. The standard is functional necessity and not cosmetic appearance.
You would benefit from a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon. The consultation should help you figure out whether insurance will support you with your procedure or not. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a VASER specialist will help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.Respectfully, Arian Mowlavi MD, FACSRealself 100 Hall of Fame Inductee

It depends on the type of liposuction performed and the extent of the correction you require. In my practice, we typically perform liposuction using local anesthesia and micro-cannulas that remove the fat and sculpt the area at the same time. Our patients usually have just a few days of downtime...
