Liposuction Costs

Cost for Liposuction in Sydney

What is the cost for liposuction in Sydney?

Like all surgical procedures, liposuction in Sydney is a complex procedure involving care by multiple different medical professionals, as well as the use of hospital operating facilities and a variety of equipment and supplies. That means there are a few different elements to take into consideration when billing for a Liposuction Operation. The total fees for liposuction in Sydney include:

•    The Surgeon’s Fee (+/- Assistant’s fee)
•    The Anaesthetist’s Fee
•    The Hospital/Facility Fee (includes both the Theatre & Accommodation Fees)

Liposuction is billed in terms of the time the operation takes, or is expected to take. Because of this, there is a great deal of variation in the cost of the procedure for different patients. There are also differences in the patient’s other medical needs, and other factors that can affect the price. For ease of reference, some indicative costs are provided here; this is only an estimate. When you visit your Specialist Plastic Surgeon in Sydney for your consultation, you will receive a more detailed and personalised estimate of what the costs are expected to be for your liposuction.
