As you can see, it’s not so simple of a question to answer. There are a lot of different factors which influence the price of liposuction, such as the body part to be treated, the amount of fat to be removed, and in some places, like Hollywood, the reputation of the doctor can greatly influence (translatino: skyrocket) the price.

Nevertheless, the internet is a wonderful thing, and has helped collect data from doctors and patients everywhere to come up with a price guide of sorts that we can fall back on as a baseline of expected costs when it comes to liposuction, or as some doctors prefer to call it, liposculpture.

The range of costs for liposuction are on the low end of just $1,500, and on the how end of $7,500. Interesting, but not very helpful or useful. What about specifics?

Here’s a good chart addressing the lower and upper range of fees assessed for various liposuction procedures:

• Upper and Lower Abdomen: $3,000 – $7,500
• Arms: $1,500 – $5,000
• Back: $1,500 – $4,000
• Breasts: $3,000 – $7,500
• Buttocks: $1,500 – $4,500
• Chin, Cheeks, Jowls, Neck: $2,000 – $4,500
• Flanks: $2,000 – $5,000
• Anterior Thighs and Knees: $2,000 – $5,000
• Inner Thighs and Knees: $2,000 – $5,000
• Hips/Waist: $1,600 – $5,000
• Outer Thighs: $1,600 – $5,000

Compare this with the users at another site whose overall various procedurse, including multiple treatments, etc, come to an average of a little more than $5,000 per person. This is an interesting tidbit because it’s highly common for patients to go in for more than one treatment. For some, $5,000 on average will not sound like a lot of money and will be worth the costs of liposuction.
