What is the average price for Liposuction? Do i have to go to the U.S?

I'm in a bit f a pickle you see, I've been dieting and excersizeing for over a year now but i haven't been losing any weight whatsoever due to other medical problems. So i've finally decided to give in to the thought of lipsosuction... I'm about 208 pounds and i want to get rid of it!! going down to about 150 perhaps. So what i'm asking is price range for full body liposuction including chin, arms, tummy, breasts, butt and thighs. Also, would i have to get skin removal of some sort? I live in Canada and i have tried the dieting and exercise way but my weight doesn't move at all D:

1. I don't know the cost, but liposuction is not the answer to a weight loss program. It will help remove areas that continue to be a problem after you have lost the weight. I would suggest you check with Brazil physicians... that country seems to do more of this type of surgery than the US, and the price may be cheaper.
2. Liposuction is not intended for removal of large amounts of fat. It's intended for targeted weight loss on individual areas which have disproportionally held on to weight even through other weight loss activities. Such as chins, or a bit off the stomach, etc. No surgeon will suck 50lbs out of a large number of areas in your body simultaneously. It just doesn't happen that way. Any cosmetic surgeon will likely tell you this. You can find one in your area - you don't say what country you're in, but most countries will have cosmetic surgeons around who will perform lipo on qualified patiences. I would strongly encourage you to instead take the thousands of dollars you would have hoped to spend on Lipo and find a private dietitian. One who can work with you and your specific medical conditions that can help you come up with a fully customized plan for you. That will set you back only a few hundred dollars, and doesn't have the risk of infection and death like any surgery does.
3. You can easily check your minimal health care rates in internet, for example here - health-quotes.isgreat.org
4. Well, it costs quite a bit. Just one area done on your body could cost from USD1,500 up to USD7,500 or more. And you wanna do so many areas, that could easily set you back in the region of at least USD20,000 financially....... And again, the cost varies depending on: 1. How much fat you wanna removed; the more fat the higher the cost 2. Where you wanna do it; a hospital costs more 3. How big your body size; apparently the bigger the size; the higher the cost 4. Who's doing it; a board-certified, qualified experienced surgeon recognized in his/her field of work charges a hefty fee I've got a guide here on the costs which you can use as a reference point: http://www.perfect-body-toning.com/cost-of-liposuction.html You can do it in Canada. P/S: Liposuction doesn't remove skin; your skin may stretch or sag after the surgery if your skin elasticity is not good. You can't lose weight - it could be due to the "other medical problems" you have. Are you on drugs/medications for these other medical problems? If you're, then that could be the problem becos certain drugs/d]medications cause you to put on weight, no matter how much exercise you do or how healthy you eat.
