i talked to a plastic surgeon about financing my breast augmentation surgery. She said that Care Credit charged her exhorbitant fees so she wouldn't take it. Since getting credit is really hard now days, are doctors more welcoming of Care Credit even if it costs them more? Will doctors make me pay more to use Care Credit?
Just about everyone has felt the pinch of our current economic situation. Plastic surgeons have been hit worse than a lot of other medical specialties because a large portion of our business is cosmetic. Elective plastic surgery is one of the first things many people do without when times are tough.
For that reason, it has actually become even more difficult than usual for surgeons to accept Care Credit. It doesn’t mean we won’t accept it, but it is generally not the most cost-effective option for surgeons or patients. As many of my colleagues have already mentioned, most plastic surgeons offer a discount for cash-paying patients. Paying cash will generally get you the lowest possible rate on your procedure.
I recently had implant of a size C put in from a size A. It wasn't a big change but im suffering from health issues with them so im looking to get them removed. It has been 7months and was wondering what the out come would be. There in very good shape.. would i need a lift? That's my biggest fear.
It is certainly a great worry for most patients that are removing implants that their breasts will look deformed. It has been my experience that even after many years of having implants, the breasts look normal upon removing the implants. The breasts may not look the same as before, but more likely than not they should look normal. This is particularly true in your situation since the implants have only been in for 7 months. If you did not require a lift prior to your augmentation it is unlikely you would need one 7 months later.
Also if you have saline implants you can see what your breasts would look like without implants without actually removing the implants. Your surgeon could remove the saline by simply inserting a needle throught the skin and into the implant. This will allow complete removal of the saline without actually having to do an operation. That way you can assess the contours and plan accordingly. I hope that this was helpful.
