How much does FTM top surgery cost in Ohio?

Often it is
not the best approach to find the cheapest plastic surgeon. Does the surgeon
specialize in this procedure? What are their credentials? How long have they
been in practice? What percentage of their practice is cosmetic surgery? How
many of these surgeries have they performed? Do they use the latest techniques?
What do their results look like? Do they have photos to show of their work? Do
they provide follow-up themselves, or will you only see the nurses (or even
just an assistant)? Are they available by phone for an emergency or does one of
their staff answer after-hour calls? What is the impression you get from their
office and staff? Are they professional and informative? Do they know what they
are talking about? You need to ask yourself all of these questions.

When
comparing quotes from different doctors, check to make sure that the costs you
are quoted are for the same thing! Check to see what type of anesthesia and
facility you are going to be treated in. If the total price is lower but you
are not going to receive proper anesthesia from a board certified
anesthesiologist, then are you getting a better deal (or inferior treatment)?
If the facility is not a certified outpatient surgery center but is an
in-office procedure room, is the difference in safety worth the cost reduction?
If the doctor is not a board certified plastic surgeon, is that worth the
discount in the fees? I would say the answer to all three of these questions is
no!

Assuming you
are talking about a board certified plastic surgeon with plenty of experience
in Top Surgery, you need to find someone who you trust. This is your body, make
sure you are making decisions based on the quality of care, the experience and
training of the doctor, and proven results! Cost alone should not be the
deciding factor.

The prices can vary from state to state, and from city to
city. Our costs, including the board certified plastic surgeon's fees, board
certified anesthesiologist's fees, operating room, labs, scar gel, vitamins,
and follow-up at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and every year
after that forever, are around $7995. If you need more follow-up appointments,
those are free as well.

Thank you for your question and congratulations as you commence your transition. Costs can vary widely from state to state and even within your state depending on your geographic location. The cost will also vary depending on the technique used and any other associated procedures that must be done to give you the most masculine result. Even within our practice the prices range from $5900 to $7500 depending on how big the guy is preoperatively. The larger the patient, the more time for anesthesia, operating room and the more time the surgeon needs to tailor the excess skin and fat to give you the best aesthetic outcome. The cost is also dependent on how much of the procedure may be covered under insurance. Top surgery is a very important part of your transition and by all means do your homework - make sure your plastic surgeon is board certified and gets consistently excellent results on thin and heavy guys (ie check out his/her website). Best of luck!!
