Would liposuction of the upper arms be considered two areas?

Arm liposuction is one area.  To compare, we do not charge two face lifts because we have two sides to our face, or charge for two breasts for a breast augmentation, or charge for two eyes for an eye lift. . . . . .

Liposuction is typically priced by the number of areas involved:  in this case, it would be three.  You would have to ask the plastic surgeon with whom you consult about his or her prices. There is usually some economy of scale.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

 Thank you very much for this question. The zones of lipo-suction is always an area of very individual interpretation and hence confusion for the patients. In my practice both arms are one zone.  Ask your plastic surgeons about details. Have a wonderful rest of the day and greetings from the beautiful island of Jamaica.

The chin and both arms would be considered three areas. Every surgeon charges differently. Some charge by area. Some charge by the amount of fat removed. While you do want to be cost conscious, you do not want to bargain shop. A successful liposuction outcome is almost entirely dependent on the skill and experience of your surgeon. Hope this helps. 

Well unfortunately there are no pictures. Different surgeons will have different answers. I consider the arms to be one area. If you do your chin and your arms I would consider this two areas. I strongly recommend that the most important decision in picking your surgeon is number one that he or she is a board certified plastic surgeon. Two that he or she will give you the results you desire. I hope you find this information useful. For more information please watch the enclosed video.

Each surgeon has different financial guidelines. Some surgeons will charge per area while other will charge for the amount of fat removed (possibly adjusting if they need to turn the patient over). Consult in person with an experienced and expert board certified plastic surgeon to understand your options.

Thanks for your inquiry. Every practice is different. In my practice I consider the arms one area. The same applies for the hips, thighs, etc.

Every doc is different but in my practice if I lipo the arms or say the hips it is considered  one area,

Each clinic and surgeon has their own way of determining fees. Best to ask specifically each one. Average fees for chin, arm lipo $5,000....

Chin and arm lipo,  are considered 3 areas. Currently my private practice , has a special for $2,500 all inclusive .
