How Much is a Tummy Tuck Going Too Cost Me? (photo)

I see all kinds of pricing all over the internet, and dont have time for consultations. I know every person is different, but not knowing how much its going too cost I feel gives me alot of lost hope. And makes me not want too walk into any door. I live in the VA area, and have looked like this since I was 16. I am now 23 and trying too figure out how much is this going to cost me. I dont want too go another day looking like this. Based on the pictures what procedure will I need and how much?

How much does a tummy tuck cost?

In my practice the total cost for a typical tummy tuck is around $7500. This cost covers the surgeon, the OR fees, and the anesthesiologist. Based on your pictures a typical tummy tuck would likely be indicated but the only way to be sure requires a consultation. There are financing companies such as carecredit.com that offer attractive interest rates that allow for payments of a few hundred dollars a month. Costs for tummy tuck surgery will vary in different areas of... more

Shopping for a Tummy Tuck

I recommend you do take the time to see as many surgeons as you can to find one you feel comfortable and confident with. You can find many qualified plastic surgeons in the Willimasburg, VA Beach, Richmond, DC areas who offer free consultations. Your pictures suggest you need a full abdominoplasty, and if you wanted to reduce the extra skin around your hips onto your back, you could benefit from an extended abdominoplasty (scar extends onto back). The various prices you... more

Tummy tuck cost in Baltimore

The average cost for a tummy tuck in Baltimore is about 6-10K. This is so variable because of the different kinds of tummy tuck out there and because liposuction may be required to meet your aesthetic goals. However, from your photos it looks like you can get a great result from a standard tummy tuck, which costs around 7-8K. Thanks for your question! Dr. Schreiber....Baltimore Plastic Surgeon see video

How Much is a Tummy Tuck

Thank you for your question and for the photos. The photos are most useful, but don't show the whole story, so a consultation will be needed to choose the correct procedure and determine pricing. From the photos it is clear that you should expect an excellent improvement. You do have a lot more skin laxity than some, and what I cannot tell from photos alone is whether an extended TT would be sufficient (longer than the usual incision, but limited to what your surgeon can reach without... more

A full tummy tuck is going to be around 10K

Hello, Thank you for the question and photos. You are definitely a candidate for a full/extended tummy tuck and may also be a good candidate for a circumferential tummy tuck also referred to as a lower body lift. Prices will range from plastic surgeon to plastic surgeon but it will likely be around 8-10K for a full/extended tummy tuck and around 16-20K for a circumferential tummy tuck (lower body lift). All the best, Dr Remus Repta

How much is my tummy tuck going to cost me??

Hi thanks for posting your pictures. I am just up the road in Richmond, I hope the Hurricane didn't do too much damage down there in Williamsburg. Tummy Tuck is an all encompassing term that many people take to be a single operation that makes your belly look better. However, there are many variables that go into determining what the BEST operation is for YOU. I see that you are now 23 and you said that you were this way since age 16. How did you have... more

Thank you for your input. I had my first child at 16 which is what caused this mess. I gained alot of weight, and then lost it. I also just had my second child 2 months ago, and she didnt do anything too my body that wasnt there already. I was already stretched even almost 7 years later after having my first. I do not want anymore children. I know the majority of my stretchmarks will stay with me, and i have come too terms with that. So i'd rather have a flatter, stretched mark stomach, than a stretched mark buldgy saggy stomach. Also I am 5'7 and 160 pounds. Which isnt really a problem. I could lose maybe 5-10 pounds, but other then that im fine with my weight. Its the extra skin that really effects me. I wasnt thinking it would be THAT high of a price, but thank you for your answer.
