Do You Have to Pay Up Front for Tummy Tuck?

Hi Tiffani,
Before any cosmetic procedure, your surgeon will almost certainly require payment up front. In addition, the surgical facility and anesthesia providers will also likely require payment ahead of time. Most plastic surgeons do participate with third-party financing companies, such as Care Credit, so you can effectively get a loan for the procedure and pay it back over several months.
Hope this helps. Best of luck.

Costs for a tummy tuck
surgery payent upfront is usually required for all cosmetic surgery

The cost will depend upon the type of tummy
tuck anesthesia skill find an experience of the surgeon. There’ll be regional
differences. Approximate costs can be found on real self, and other websites
such as the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and the American Society of
Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.

Payment plans can be offered through Care
Credit, local banks, credit cards, and other companies such as Prosper. Some plans have 12-18 months interest free.

Thank you for the question. We have many patients who finance their procedures. That means that the financing company will pay for the procedure upfront and you will make monthly payments to them directly.In our practice, we use Care Credit as well as other companies; they have been used by our patients with no problems. They do have different rates so please make sure you get all of the information you need prior to signing up with any financing company.Generally speaking, it is always in patients' best interests to achieve a certain degree of financial stability prior to undergoing elective surgery of any type. Patients should also keep in mind that additional surgery may be necessary in the short or long term, following the primary procedure that is being performed; this additional surgery may be associated out-of-pocket expenses. Again, best to achieve a physical, emotional, psychosocial, and financial “stable state” prior to considering elective plastic surgery. Best wish
