Tummy tuck cost

Jack Gelman, MD answers: How much does a tummy tuck cost?

I had 3 c-sections and planning to have a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) done, but I'm not sure how much a tummy tuck costs.  What are average tummy tuck prices?

Tummy tucks range from $5000 to $9000. It depends on the extent of surgery and the time involved.  I would not shop based on price. This is a serious procedure and you don't want the K-mart of plastic surgery. On the other hand the most expensive surgeon, is not necessarily the best. You should be fully evaluated by a board-certified plastic surgeon. Look for the American Board of Plastic Surgery certification. Check his/her before and after photos of his/her actual patients.
