Price for liposuction varies and so does quality.In general, I would stay away from providers advertising deals that seem too good to be true. There are often fine print bait-and-switch offers. That said, paying more is no guarantee the quality of work will be better. Depending on where you have your work done, prices may vary from $1,000-$3,000 per area. I think $1,500 per area plus facility and possible anesthesia fees is a very fair price when three or more areas are treated.I prefer to do liposuction using conscious sedation, thereby avoiding general anesthesia. It's usually easily tolerated and has many benefits. Relying only on a pain pill can leave some patients challenged if the procedure is done correctly. Our facility fee is typically around $1,000 per hour. That's for a fully accredited OR in a hospital. To me, that offers the highest level of safety and access to the best equipment. My practice is devoted almost entirely to liposuction and fat transfer. Don't put too much credence in the hype and spin of names and gadgets. Do pay close attention to the experience of the surgeon, proper training in plastic surgery, honest demeanor and online reviews. Consider consulting with several plastic surgeons.Best of luck,Mats Hagstrom, M.D.
