Tumescent Liposuction Cost
You may have noticed that the price of liposuction generally fluctuates more than that of other cosmetic procedures. Liposuction costs can range from $2,000 to $10,000 on average.
Fees and fee structure is based on many variables for tumescent liposuction surgery. The size of the area and the number of areas being suctioned are the primary indicators of the cost. Most surgeons will charge a base fee for the first area and then an a reduced fee for each additional area. Some tumescent liposuction surgeons lump all the fees together and others break them down separately (i.e facility, anesthesia, anesthesiologist, medical tests, prescriptions and other miscellaneous costs related to liposuction). The best way to obtain a detail summary of ALL costs is to schedule a consultation appointment with the surgeon.
Generally speaking, tumescent liposuction does not require an additional surgery facility because it can be done in office. Pure tumescent liposuction does not require an anesthesiologist to administer the general anesthetic thus making it more affordable than Traditional liposuction. Of course there may be other cost factors included sucjh as if the surgeon decides to add laser assist or ultrasonic assist.
