The cost depends on what the patient needs and how much time is required. When I do a tummy tuck I do what I think helps to get the best and longest-lasting results for my patients. In my practice a tummy tuck that takes between 4.5 and 7.5 hours of operating rom time, depending on what is done is in the broad range of 11-15,000. But I am sure you can also find a tummy tuck for 7-9,000 in some areas, and more in others. If breast surgery...

Hello,
Your answer varies by your surgeon's experience, the size of your case and your surgeon's practice philosophy. One surgeon's tummy tuck is not equivalent to another's. It also varies by your location. Some areas of the country are also more expensive than others.
The range here is substantial, but a good mid-point is around $10,000. Get several estimates and then compare for your situation and location.

Costs will vary based on many factors, but should range between $7000 to $15000 in most parts of the country for a well done procedure.
Realize shopping for a low price is not in your best interests- having paid a low price will be little consolation when you're looking in the mirror at your less than pleasing outcome.

The cost varies between a mini tummy tuck and it extended
The standard fee for a mini tuck which is done as an outpatient is anywhere from $5000-$6500. An extended abdominoplasty which is a longer more involved operation, can cost between $7000 and $9000 and the overnight stay will run another thousand dollars. Most patients also require some liposuctioning.depending on the facility I use. This may incur an extra $500-$1000 in cost.

Cost of a Tummy Tuck in Dallas
Dear Chia,
Prices for Tummy Tuck surgery will vary with the region, surgeon's experience, and your body type (if you have a petite frame, a standard abdominoplasty will take me less than 2 hours, and if large framed, it might take up to 3, and price is proportionate). In my Dallas practice, you can expect to pay between $7,500 to $9,000 for a tummy tuck (fees are all inclusive).
Best regards,
Dr.B
