Liposuction Cost

If you’re interested in liposuction surgery, it may feel like the only barrier between you and that final decision is uncertainty about how much the procedure may cost.

Will liposuction surgery be prohibitively expensive? Or will a body-contouring procedure be surprisingly affordable?

Let’s take a closer look at how much liposuction costs, including the factors that can influence your surgery’s final price.

Liposuction: Average Costs

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), the average cost of liposuction averages around $4,500. This is the year when data was last made available, so expect to see this average cost go up by a few hundred dollars when more recent data is released.

What Else Can Influence Liposuction Costs?

Other factors that can influence liposuction costs include:

Your region’s cost-of-living index
If general anesthesia is used
Your plastic surgeon’s experience and expertise
Surgery center fees
Prescription medications
And more
