Im looking for a practice that can offer me the best price for liposuction. There is a very small area just below my belly button I would like to have done. What would be a rough estimate for that procedure?

I get e-mail like this now and again. When you go about looking to go on the cheap for liposuction, you are going to find your way to a non-plastic surgeon for it. There are many other types of doctors who perform liposuction and the non-plastic surgeons have lower overhead. I am not saying I would recommend it or that they are very good at it, but they are cheaper.

Just be aware of what you are seeking because you just might find it…and end up in a bad place because of it.

P.S. By the way, when you receive a price on an operation without being examined first, that is a red flag too.
