How Many Do a Tummy Tuck Cost in South-Africa?

The cost of a #tummytuck, #abdominoplasty, will vary based on many factors. There is the variable fee that comes directly from your surgeon for the procedure. You also need to remember that the fees for the facility, anesthesia, and any possible extra medical facility costs or potential overnight stay could add a great deal that you were not expecting going into the operating room. Always make sure that you are speaking to board-certified surgeons when getting quotes, and make sure that you get all of the details of what is including in the actual quote being provided. That will help you prepare for how much is already included from the doctor and aware of what may add to the bill when not already included in the surgeon’s quote.

Thank you for your question. Prices vary depending on surgeon and
location. US dollars are different from foreign money. I would advise you to schedule a
consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon for a detailed examination
to discuss all possible treatment options and what your expectations are.

Cost of Tummy Tuck The price is dependent on many factors - is it a mini, full or extended abdominoplasty such as a fleur de lis pattern where redundant skin is removed from the center as well as the bottom of the abdomen? Is it skin only or does it include tightening of the muscles? Will Liposuction also be necessary? Will it be performed in a hospital with an overnight stay or in an independent out-patient facility? Will a surgical assistant be needed? Will a board-certified anesthesiologist or a nurse anesthetist be used? Will an (anti) pain pump be used? All of these factors influence the cost. Outside the US it is probably different, but for reference, in Orange County, California the estimated range is $7000- $15,000+ depending on the variables above.

Thank you for your question.  Classic #Tummytuck procedure involves excision of the over hanging tissue (called pannus), tightening and repair of the abdominal muscles, repositioning of your belly-button and liposuction to flanks.  This procedure in Toronto Canada costs approximately between 8500 and 8990 Can $ (similar to US $) and this include surgeon's fees, anesthesiologist fees, 3 operative nurses' fees, supplies, facility fees and medications.  It is a 3,5h procedure if a single surgeon is operating, on average.  Cost is less for #Mini-tummytucks.  Best to call your local plastic surgeons' offices and enquire about their prices.  A formal quote can only be given once we meet and assess our patients.  Don't necessarily go for the less expansive surgeon and make sure he/she is an actual #boardcertified #plasticsurgeon and has all the qualifications.  Best of luck, Dr. Marc DuPere, Toronto Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon

across the country and even in the same area. South Florida tends to
have lower fees then more expensive areas such as South Africa, New York or Los
Angeles. We charge starting at $4000 + MD Anesthesia related expenses
for a modified tummy tuck. With a complete tummy tuck being more. Since
you can get quality work at lower costs, patients will travel from

hire and train quality staff (to ensure that surgery is efficient and
enjoyable), to ensure comfortable and private facilities (to encourage
referral), and to eliminate waste (to ensure that these facilities can
compete effectively). Consult in person with 3 experienced and expert board certified plastic surgeons to understand your options.
