Breast implants range in price according to the procedure and how much reconstruction is done. It can be $7000 to $12,000. Liposuction varies in price as well. Price is dependent upon what areas are done, how many areas are done and the extent of the procedure. A cosmetic surgeon should be able to give you an idea of cost with a consultation.

Right, and remember that you don't want to think about cost for something like that, you really want to go for quality. If you go to a low cost place, you might end up with more cost in complications after the fact. Think quality.

And no, insurance doesn't cover cosmetic procedures unless there is a medical reason you need them (like a deformity or something)

P.S. try not to type in all caps!! It makes it seem like you're yelling!

your question is very broad. so many variables. different surgeons have different rates, hospitals have different rates, cities have different rates ... more importantly to cost is having the information, the right surgeon & the moral support from friends & family.
best of luck
