Why is there such a difference in cost for blepharoplasty?

This question deserves a well thought out answer, because it is not limited to only blepharoplasty.  Each surgeon decides on his prices in his own unique way.  In these economic times, it is important for us all to attempt to get the best possible "deal" for the money we are going to spend.  Just be sure that the "deal" you look for and choose is not based only on price, but on overall value.  This is best dtermined and explained by a face to face consultation with your surgeon and his/her patient consultant so that you can be sure you are comparing "apples to apples" (surgeon experience, accredited Or and board certified anesthesiologist, etc.) when choosing a surgeon.  This will help you avoid choosing a "lemon"! (Sorry for the fruit analogy!)
