Cost to remove Buffalo Hump? (Photo)

Hi, thank you for your question. Congratulations on being cancer free! Removal of your buffalo hump is very straightforward under general anesthesia. In the New York area, board certified plastic surgeons will likely charge $4k-$6k depending on their level of expertise and availability. This is the kind of procedure that I advise my patients to have on a Friday so they can be back at work on Monday. There's more on the recovery process in the video included below. Hope this helps!

PAL liposuction is the way to go under local but needs to be done aggressively to get it done right since it is very fibrous and whimpy lipo just won't do anything. Cost is roughly $5000 for quality work.

Hello and thank you for your question.  The
best advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation.  Based on
your photograph, you may benefit from upper back liposuction.  Cost varies based on geographic region and surgeon expertise.  This decision should
be based on a detailed discussion with equal input from both you
and your surgeon.   Make sure you specifically look
at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery
performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results.   The most
important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend
that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who
can evaluate you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.

kew4you.   Your condition is not uncommon, resulting from medication similar to the one you had to take for all those years. Buffalo hump can be removed with liposuction of the area and sometimes your medical insurance will cover it. If not, cost for removal in New York City ranges from $5000-$9000. Come see me or another board-certified plastic surgeon in New York City the area for a full evaluation and recommendation. Good luck.

Hello dear!!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well. 
The average cost varies a lot depending on the city, the clinic and the plastic surgeon. l recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your goals and anything you need to know.
Good luck :)

Thank you for posting your photo with your interesting question. Your "Buffalo Hump" can be liposuctioned under local anesthesia, if you want and the cost ranges between $5,000-10,000. I recommend that you have a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who is experienced with liposuction. At the time of your consultation, you will have a detailed history and physical exam, discuss your goals and the operation, have all of your questions answered and see dozens of the plastic surgeon's before and after results. Best wishes, Richard Wellington Swift, M.D.
