Am I being "double" quoted? I'm 50; Got a quote; MD and Mgr barely saw my "interested areas": Abs, Love handle; Rolls under/side/above bra line; upper arms; inner/outer thighs.They quoted me: $1300 per area; totaling 9 = Upper/lower abs, flanks, lower back, under bra, bra area, arms, outer/inner thighs=$11,700.- I'm 5'5" 160 lbs BMI 28.It seems they "sub divide" the areas in redundant way. Now, this Doc told me that my "sides"=inside "Bra Area" are NOT included?Also, doc said "areas are considered the "size of a palm"?!

Answer: Lipo areas definitions vary from surgeon to surgeon Lipo of the torso is generally divided into abdomen, flanks, and back for purposes of discussion. For the purpose of body contouring, the entire flanks and back region is usually treated in a single session and not piecemeal. The reason for this is that it will produce a better result. However, some centers will create an unrealistically small body area with an unrealistically small price simply to bait you into their center. Once there, you'll find that what you need and the price it would require is pretty much the same as centers which do not employ such deceptive marketing tactics.

Answer: Bra fat Every liposuction surgeon has their own way to price a procedure..I dont advertise my price per area because there is no clear definition for what make up an area.. When a patient come in for a consult I give them a quote according to the size of the areas that they want treated.. There is a maximum amount that can be treated in a session which is determined by the amount of lidocaine that will be needed to numb the area. ( I do all my procedure under local anesthesia...) this will be determined also at a consultation. If a patient wants one area treated it will be priced.. If they want more areas done, it is less expensive to do the treatment at the same time as there is a significant start up cost.
