A higher BMI means prices jump a level
Body liposuction at De:Light Surgery is priced by BMI range in five levels: 23 or under, 23-25, 25-27, 27-29.9, and 30 or over. Whichever level you fall into is the price you pay; it does not rise gradually.
BMI = weight (kg) ÷ height (m)². For example, 160 cm and 70 kg gives 70 ÷ 2.56 ≈ 27.3, which falls in 27-29.9; at 68 kg it is about 26.6, which falls in 25-27.

Whether you can have surgery is decided by a specialist surgeon
That the price list has prices for BMI 30 or over does not mean everyone is suitable. At De:Light, everything from consultation and pre-operative tests to surgery is handled personally by Director Kim Sung-hoon (김성훈), a specialist in surgery, and you only know which areas suit you and how large the area can be after the examination.
The price list does not explain any limits or recommendations for higher BMI, so ask the doctor directly at your consultation.
