Often it is not the best approach to find the cheapest plastic surgeon. Does the surgeon specialize in this procedure? What are their credentials? How long have they been in practice? What percentage of their practice is cosmetic surgery? How many of these surgeries have they performed? Do they use the latest techniques? What do their results look like? Do they have photos to show of their work? Do they provide follow-up themselves, or will you only see the nurses (or even just an assistant)? Are they available by phone for an emergency or does one of their staff answer after-hour calls? What is the impression you get from their office and staff? Are they professional and informative? Do they know what they are talking about? You need to ask yourself all of these questions.The prices can vary from state to state, and city to city. We charge for liposuction per area. The abdomen (upper and lower side to side) is one area. The waist (from the ribs to just above the buttocks from side to side around the back) is one area. The thighs (both inner and outer) is one area. Our costs, including the board certified plastic surgeon's fees, board certified anesthesiologist's fees, operating room, labs, garment, vitamins, and follow-up at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months 6 months, and every year after forever, are listed below. If you need more follow-up appointments, those are free as well. The cost per area does go down as you add more areas:One area: cost per area around $5000. Two areas: cost per area round $3200. Three areas: cost per area around $2500When comparing quotes from different doctors, check to make sure that the costs you are quoted are for the same thing! For instance, often the cost per area is quoted as lower, yet the abdomen is comprised of upper and lower, and sometimes even lateral areas (2 to 4 areas for the abdomen, instead we consider the entire abdomen one area) or the thighs are inner and outer (2 areas when we consider the thighs one area). Make sure you are comparing apples to apples. Also check to see what type of anesthesia and facility you are going to be treated in. If the total price is lower but you are not going to receive proper anesthesia from a board certified anesthesiologist, then are you getting a better deal (or inferior treatment)? If the facility is not a certified outpatient surgery center but is an in-office procedure room, is the difference in safety worth the cost reduction? If the doctor is not a board certified plastic surgeon, is that worth the discount in the fees? I would say the answer to all three of these questions is no! This is your body, make sure you are making decisions based on the quality of care, the experience and training of the doctor, and proven results. Cost alone should not be the deciding factor.
Thank you for your question and your photos. In your case, I would recommend a good physical exam as you may benefit from a tummy tuck. Every city has different costs. Every surgeon also has different costs because of this. Remember that cheap can get expensive fast, as revision surgery can be quite expensive. Liposculpture is a surgical procedure, using liposuction techniques to remove fatty deposits from certain areas of the body. recontour areas of the body, and to achieve better proportion. It is often a cosmetic procedure, however has its reconstructive uses as an effective method to remove fatty/fibrous tissue secondary to disease, (or treatment of the disease), and to extract fat to be placed elsewhere in the body to achieve the desired look. Best to see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, as he/she can also evaluate you for aesthetic surgery, (i.e. tummy tuck, brachioplasty, leg lift, etc.), if needed . A good place to start looking is are the websites of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), and the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, (ASAPS).

Hello dear, thanks for your question and provided information as well.. This is the surgical procedure that revolutionized cosmetic surgery becoming one of the most performed cosmetic procedures. Subcutaneous tissue or fat is removed in order to contour the body in a way that is harmonious and pleasing to the senses. It can be performed in almost all regions of the body such as the neck, chin, abdomen, back, buttocks, thighs, arms and ankles. Usually done through a small incision in the skin through which a cannula connected to a vacuum is applied, it can be performed alone or in combination with other procedures. After liposuction your body is going to be really swollen for at least 2 to 4 months after your surgery. It is important for you to wear your compression garment for at least 6 months, the first 3 months 24/7 and then the last 3 months at least 12 hours per day for your body get use to not having the faja for so many time. When you remove it, your body can get swollen and also you can have pain. Remember to also compress your body to prevent a seroma which is an accumulation of liquid that has to be drained, it is hard to touch and also really painful. Bruises are completely normal for almost 3 months from surgery, that’s why is better for you to use a bruising cream and apply it all over your body 3 times a day. To prevent bad circulation and swollen legs, use compression socks. Brazilian butt lift can be performed with the same procedure and for a month it will be swollen and it will drop a little bit without losing it’s shape if you use your garment.. If you’re going to perform liposuction on your inner, outer, anterior, lateral, postetior thighs, be careful and consult with your surgeon what’s best for you, sometimes we have more extra skin than fat, that can cause severe sagginess on our legs, which can be only be reversed performing a thigh lift…
The actual cost of liposuction can widely vary, and it isnext to impossible to give a patient a quote without having an initialconsultation, or a frame of reference. Liposuction costs differ for the area ofthe body, and also the amount of fatty deposit being removed from the body. Italso depends on the technique that the plastic surgeon uses. Here at theBel-Red Center for Aesthetic Surgery, we use the latest technology. Doctors whohave not kept up with the latest technology have a tendency to use equipmentwith larger cannulas. The size of the cannula directly affects the cost ofliposuction. Here at the Bel-Red Center, we use micro cannulas, and are able tocharge our patients much less than our competitors.It is also important to note that many health insurances docover some or all of the costs of cosmetic plastic surgery, especially when thesurgery is viewed as a medical necessity. Because of the nature of liposuction,it can often be seen as a necessary medical procedure, and can be billed assuch. Our doctor and staff can better assist you with this process during yourconsultation.For absolute ballpark figures, liposuction fees areapproximately $2,500 for neck liposuction, $5,000-6,000 for the upper and lowerabdomen, and $6,000 and up for combination liposuction. This includes anabdomen with love handles, or the inclusion of liposuction on the buttocks aswell. We do offer discounts for multiple areas, so patients having multipleprocedures will typically have a reduction in cost. We want you to have themost comfortable experience possible.
Looking at your photos i would advise you a TT with liposuction around the waist/abdomen and flanks/back. I feel that you will get better results with this combination. Best of luck
Cost vary across the country and also based on the experience and expertise of the plastic surgeon. In my practice I have five different levels of charging for a body areas depending on what is required and/ or desired by the patient. The cost ranges between $3,000 to $6,000 per area. There are also charges for use of a surgical facility, which can be highly variable based on what part of the country you are in (NYC vs say Omaha), and then there is the cost of the anesthesiologist as well.
Unless you have a lot of weakness in your abdominal musculature, you are probably a good candidate for liposuction. I prefer using SLIM liposuction which is a form of laser lipolysis which melts the fat and tightens the skin simultaneously. For the abdomen and flanks area I would generally charge $3600 if performed with oral sedation, or $4500 if performed under general anesthesia. These charges are all inclusive. Only a consultation will determine if you are a good candidate. Some patients have a lot of visceral fat which is behind the muscle making them poor candidates for liposuction or a tummy tuck.
