Belt Lipectomy

Hi All, I am looking for information on having a belt lipectomy done at some point next year, but I know that insurance does not cover the surgery, so I would have to pay for it. Is there any one out there that can share their experience with this type of surgery, the cost, the pain, etc. My home email is [email protected], I can only check my emails once or twice a wee****il my new computer comes in, but I will be anxiously awaiting any info that anyone can provide to me. Thanks MElissa
