Cost of chin liposuction? (photos)

Cost factors vary significantly for a number of good reasons: Prices vary greatly because the surgery itself encompasses a wide range of techniques that can be performed to different extents. My recommendation is to first find the most qualified surgeons where you want the surgery performed that are board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery you trust, then compare prices between them. See the below link on suggestions on how to find the most qualified plastic surgeon for your procedure. General Factors that influence the price of plastic surgery include:


1. Location - Will it be performed in a hospital with an overnight stay, an independent out- patient facility or a doctor’s office? Geographical location also has a significant influence. RealSelf has average charges for most areas of the USA.


2. Type of Anesthesia - local, IV sedation or General Anesthesia? Will a board certified anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist, or an RN be used?
    
      3. Experience and training of your surgeon. The best and longest trained is most often a plastic surgeon board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery
   
      4. Length and Complexity of Surgery - how difficult will your surgery be and how long it will take, etc. Will other complementary procedures also be also performed during the same surgery?

The cost of neck liposuction will vary widely, but I expect that most surgeons will charge somewhere in the $2,000-$4,000 range. This is equivalent to 2-3 treatment sessions of Kybella, and you may see somewhat similar results, but Kybella may require as many as 5-6 treatment sessions and each treatment has a recovery period. With liposuction there is only one recovery period, and the procedure can really be delicately tailored to each individual patient.
Another factor to consider would be the potential need for a chin implant. A weak chin can definitely affect the appearance of the neck and what we term the cervicomental angle. The combination of a chin implant and submental liposuction in a young patient can be quite an improvement - something that cannot be achieved with an injectable medication like Kybella alone. A consultation with a surgeon specializing in facial aesthetics is recommended.
All the best,

Thank you for your question. Cost is always a consideration in elective surgery. Prices for liposuction in our facility vary depending on the amount of tissue planned to be removed, and the expected time that will be spent in the operative room. You may call us for a general range if you know what areas you think will require liposuction.
