Where is the cheaper state to do a lipo and breast augmentation?

Prices vary from area to area, and surgeon to surgeon.  Understanding you should not select your surgeon solely on price, after you have found prices, research the surgeons to make sure they are not only Board Certified, but they get good results.In Columbia, S.C. we charge a total of $4200 for breast augmentation, and $2900 for one area of liposuction.You can use that as a baseline for your research. You should be able to find someone in your area that is reasonably priced, but again, do your research about the surgeon's credentials, certification, and results.Good luck,

The cost of surgery definitely varies by geographical regions. Certainly by state, but also within states when comparing larger urban areas to suburban practices. I practiced in 2 different states in very different types of areas and the costs are dramatically different. Every procedure takes into account 3 factors. They are the procedure fees, anesthesia fee, and facility fee. Each of these is a variable on its own from region to region and affects the total cost. If you are looking for less expensive surgery, you should keep in mind that your travel fees, accommodations, food, and need for followup may end up costing considerably more than you think. You also need to have a travel companion to stay with you. Also, if you have a complication it is highly likely that you will have at least some difficulty in getting another surgeon to see you where you live. If they do, it will likely cost you. If you need a revision procedure and have it done where you live it will cost you like for a brand new surgery. However, your original surgeon would have a revision policy and you would likely pay relatively little, if anything. For all of these reasons, it is best to have surgery not too far away whenever possible. While many of us plastic surgeons have patients that travel long distances to see us, it is very important that you are prepared and make an informed decision that is not mainly based on cost.

My recommendation would be to focus on various other variables such as surgeon experience and connection with surgeon/stafff than focusing solely on price. Patients can go to Tijuana for these procedures at a reduce rate, but there is no way that we'd recommend this approach. We recommend you make a visit with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your surgical options and potential costs.
