One of the most difficult areas to remove fat is the neck. Due to the way our body loses fatty acids, the area in the neck is usually the last area to benefit from exercise.
Therefore, for people who want to get rid of the excess fat in their necks, liposuction is one option they often turn to.
However, the cost of neck liposuction is not cheap. If you want to know how to search for more affordable alternatives, the pricing guide below will show you the determinants of neck liposuction prices. By knowing how prices are determined, you will have a better sense of where to find cheaper alternatives.
On average, a neck lipo will cost around $2,000 to $4,000 (US). How much you specifically will have to pay will depend on several factors, including the following:
The amount of work needed: Patients with large deposits of fat will obviously have to pay more than those with a smaller deposit.
Experience and qualifications of the surgeon: In general, the more experienced the surgeon is, the higher the price will be for their services. In addition, a Board certified surgeon will also cost more because they have been verified by external parties to be able to perform cosmetic surgery.
In the US, any doctor can technically perform such surgery even if he or she is not a specialist, so it will be especially important there to do your due diligence when looking for a reputable surgeon. Certification will help to ensure that you get the most qualified doctor.
Cost of living: In metropolitan areas where the cost of living is high, the prices for cosmetic surgeries like neck liposuction will be higher as well. On the other hand, small sized communities such as Mountain West would have cheaper surgeons available.
If you want a really cheap alternative, you can consider zerona liposuction, which is a new non invasive technique for body contouring. The price of zerona laser treatment is about 20% to 30% cheaper than a normal liposuction procedure, and its effectiveness has not been fully proven.
