Liposuction isn't about weight loss - it is more about reshaping the areas.  So it is not really a great idea to have it done for weight control and it may be a waste of money.  Usually, I find that the 'sweet spot' for weight is about 160 to 170 pounds, so that may be a more appropriate weight for you to be.  Good luck!

Hello. The costs for liposuction will vary tremendously depending on the the training and experience of the physician and where the surgery is performed. It can also depend on the amount of fat being removed which translates into time in the operating room. Some patients have surgery done under sedation while others have surgery done under general anesthesia where you are asleep. Because everyone is different it's difficult to estimate costs without seeing photos or the patient in person. When looking at costs be sure to look at total costs - surgery, operating room costs, anesthesia, garments , etc. Liposuction is often one of those surgeries where you get what you pay for. Discount surgery can often leave a patient with serious problems that are difficult to fix. Ultimately any patient having liposuction should be at a stable weight. Gaining weight back after the procedure will usually lead to unhappy patients. So many things to consider. Ultimately, to answer your question it can cost anywhere from $2500 - $7500 or more for the areas you are talking about depending on what exactly is done. You should make a consultation with several board certified plastic surgeons in your area with an expertise in liposuction and body contouring to see what your specific options are. Good luck!
