Although there are non-invasive methods that claim to remove belly fat, I have seen numerous patients who have spent good money on these methods and been unhappy with the results. They are expensive and don't give the long-term results and satisfaction that liposuction can give in proper hands.With liposuction you are also paying for the skill and experience of the surgeon. This will ensure that the procedure is done right the first time, which will save you endless cost and grief in the long term. Also, there are additional methods to tighten skin that may or may not be required in your case, but that can make all the difference when they are used.Your abdominal lipo could cost anywhere from $4k to $8k depending on areas being done, method used, geographic location and such. Anything less than that makes me suspicious regarding the quality you are receiving.Hope that helps.
