Liposuction has a variety of benefits, but those perks don’t extend to your wallet. Our board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. David Bogue, knows that the price tag of your plastic surgery is a vital part of the decision-making process. That’s why we offer financing information and several payment options, but the actual dollar amount varies by procedure, and you’re paying multiple fees and expenses that go beyond the plastic surgeon’s costs.
The Total Cost of Liposuction
The price of each plastic surgery, from breast augmentation to facelifts, depends on where you’re located, the expertise of the surgeon, and the surgical facility where your liposuction is performed. The cost of living varies state by state, city by city, so you’re likely to pay more for liposuction in a place with a larger population. However, these large cities also mean a competitive market for highly-skilled plastic surgeons.
The total price of liposuction also depends on the extent of training and experience your plastic surgeon has under his or her belt. A plastic surgeon, including Dr. Bogue, who is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery has gone through rigorous training and exams to earn this certification on top of the required schooling, internships, and residencies. The old “you get what you pay for” adage applies in this situation:
Don’t jeopardize your liposuction results by choosing a discount surgeon. Do your research, look at before and after photos, and read patient reviews to make sure you opt for a plastic surgeon with the experience and talent required to reach your cosmetic goals.
On top of the surgeon’s fees for liposuction, there are anesthesiologist expenses, facility fees, recovery garments, and follow-up care. Your liposuction should be performed at an accredited surgical facility where your plastic surgeon has privileges. The cost of liposuction also depends on how many areas of unwanted fat you’d like to address with lipo and whether you’ll have better results with a combination of plastic surgeries.
Combining Liposuction with Another Plastic Surgery
Liposuction is often used in conjunction with another procedure including the four types of tummy tucks we offer in Boca Raton and breast augmentation. A mommy makeover combines breast surgery, tummy tuck, and lipo to restore a pre-pregnancy body contour. The number of procedures will have a drastic effect on the overall cost of liposuction as each additional plastic surgery comes with a variety of expenses as well.
