I'm considering going to Rio, Brazil for a Mommy makeover, tummy tuck, breast lift, Liposculpture / Brazilian butt lift. I’m being told it's going to coast me 14,000 for the total surgery. What price would I pay here in USA for the same procedures?

Costs for Multiple Procedures, Here vs. "There"

The arithmetic is not that simple: Regional U.S variations for the procedures you mention: ~$17,000 - 25,000. Variations depending on amount of liposuction. Cost of Breast Lift vs. Lift with Implants type of implants Out-patient vs. overnight stay/recovery facility In thinking about the costs of travel, for safety, fly 2 weeks pre-op and stay at least 2 weeks post-op + cost of accommodations for you and caregiver. (Don't plan on... more

Cost of surgery in US vs. Brazil

Thank you for your question. Cost will vary depending on many factors.... first of all it differs depending on if a board certified plastic surgeon is performing the surgery or not. Also, if the surgery is performed in a hospital based operating room vs. an office setting, if a board certified anesthesiologist is involved vs. a nurse (or sometimes performing procedures under local anesthesia), etc. Please be careful when doing your research to make sure your surgeon is... more

Mommy makeover in Brazil

Medical tourism is more common as the world continues to shrink. In the US you could probably get the same procedures for between $12-20,000 plus anesthesia and operating room fees. There are many problems with this strategy. First, any complications will likely require care in the US. It will be difficult to find someone of expertise to get involved at that point. There is no recourse for a possible malpractice or standard of care litigation in the other... more

Mommy makeover and Brazilian butt lift too much surgery together.

Hi. This is not a safe combination. You are increasing your risk of a blood clot. Do it in two stages.

Surgery costs

It is certainly possible to combine some procedures together, it depends upon the health of the patient and the length of time the surgery will take to name a few. And so, I probalby would not recommend all of these procedures together. The fees will vary.

Costs of surgery in the US vs abroad

The costs of a mommy makeover can vary based on the procedures you need and the length of your surgery. Although you are considering an overseas option, I would also seriously consider the travel costs and more importantly you postoperative short term and long term recovery and care. And god forbid you have any issues with healing or problems, what will you do if you are surgeons are in a different country? Please visit with a board certified ASPS member surgeon.... more

Cosmetic surgery costs

It's difficult to give you the exact costs without actually seeing you first. This is because there are certain procedures that may not require much to accomplish your aesthetic goals. For example, a Brazilian Butt Lift includes liposuction of pretty much the entire body to get enough fat for the buttock augmentation. Further, when you combine procedures many practices offer discounts. Therefore, interview with several plastic surgeons to get an idea of the... more

Surgical Cost and Medical Tourism

First, I would not recommend going to another country for cosmetic surgery. I can not tell how many patients have called my office to be seen because of a complication that they can not get the original surgeon to take care of or the patient just can afford to return back to the country that the surgery was performed. Secondly, it is NOT wise at all to have all the procedures you mentioned done at once! IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED! The are many surgeons in... more

Price for Mommy Makeover, Tummy Tuck, Breast Lift, Liposculpture and Brazilian Butt Lift

The range in MIAMI would be between $15,000 to $20,000. I hope that helps you. The decision is or should not be based upon the price but the experience of the surgeon in these multiple operations.

Mommy Makeover costs

I agree with the other estimates that this would cost at least $20,000 the Cleveland area. I'm not sure that it is advisable though, to do all that surgery at one sitting and the results are probably better if they are done separately, or split up, with more attention to detail. I have taken care of patients who have had surgery done in South America. I have been impressed that they have extensive surgery done, but I have not been impressed with the quality of the work. Very... more

Cosmetic surgery outside the US

When you calculate the costs you need to add in the travel costs of airplane tickets, hotel, food and overnight stays in aftercare facilities. Keep in mind that for safety reasons you will need to arrive days before your surgery and leave at least a week or 2 afterward. You may then find that the savings are not as great as you think particularly since the Brazilian Real has increased 30% in value vs. the US dollar over the past 2 or 3 years.

I would serioulsy consider the risks of doing all of these together and possible advise you to arrive at least two weeks prior and stay for at least 2 weeks afterwards to minimize the risk of lower leg clotting. This proceudre would easily run in the 20K range for total fees. see video
