I paid 7500$ to the surgeon and almost 2500$ to the outpatient center where it was performed. I still got a bill after saying I had to pay more because it took more time than expected. So about 10K. I wish I would of got it done outside of the country. I've had friends and family members get it done in Dominica Republic for a third of the cost. There are reputable and experienced doctors in Dominican Republic, Venezuela and Colombia. Sounds scary to do it outside the country but all of the females I know that had it done in DR look a million times better than I do. They are more shaped with that hourly glass shape. Full mommy makeovers for under 5k which include new breast. Shoot, I wish I could go back in time and have it done in DR.
