The Drs I have seen have prices from $12,000 on up. I'd like to stay under $10,000. If the quality and price is right I would travel within the U.S.
Answer: Circumferential TTuck Costs Costs vary regionally. Competition is a large determinate of price since this procedure is not covered by insurance. Thus, it makes sense that where there is a higher concentration/number of qualified plastic surgeons fees tend to be lower. In addition, a city with a lower cost-of-living helps to keep costs lower. For instance, here in the Miami area fee are held down quite a lot because of the number of qualified/experienced surgeons here. Go just a few counties away and the fees rise quite a lot.While being cost-conscious is wise, remember to "shop the doctor, not the price".

Answer: Circumferential tummy tuck Hi. I would caution you against going for the cheapest you can find. You should factor in distance from your surgeon, as that will impact your follow-up care. If you are within reasonable driving distance, for instance, that lends itself to appropriate follow-up care and appointments, etc. If you have to fly back to see your surgeon, that presents challenges and significant expense. I would recommend consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon to go over the options. I would be happy to see you in consultation if that would be helpful. Good luck and take care, Dr. Howell

Answer: Tummy tuck / Mini Tummy Tuck /Abdominoplasty/ Liposuction/ Reverse Abdominoplasty/Tummy Tuck Revision I appreciate your question. Cost varies by geographic location, surgeon expertise, OR time, anesthesia, length of procedure etc. I would recommend that you go to The American Society of Plastic Surgery website and look for a list of board certified plastic surgeons in your area. You can call their offices in advance and ask for quotes prior to scheduling consultations. The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery. Best of luck!

Answer: Abdominoplasty The best way to answer that question is to randomly call some surgeons in cities you are considering, and check prices. After getting 3 or 4 reasonable quotes, make sure you do your research of the surgeon. As a starting point, in Columbia, S.C. we charge $8600 for an extended abdominoplasty, and a circumferential I think is $10,600 for everything, but you can call my office and they will give you exact prices.Good luck,Greg Sexton, M.D.Columbia, S.C.803 252-6222

Answer: Lowest cost surgery Cost is obviously always a factor when considering an elective cosmetic procedure. However it should not be the deciding factor. It always amazes me that people will spend $40,000 on a car without thinking twice, yet they will try to penny pinch when it comes to selecting a surgeon to perform a major operation that will have life long lasting effects on their body. There are many plastic surgery "bargains "out there. I'm sure you can find a gynecologist or a dentist to do your circumferential body lift if you look hard enough. You can also travel to a third world country to have a practitioner with unknown credentials do your surgery. These are all options for you. Traveling out of the city for your surgery also has added risks. You will not be near your surgeon for follow-up appointments. It will be inconvenient for you to be evaluated if you have complications. You may also have to rely on other surgeons who did not do your surgery to manage these complications. In many cases, this can cost even more money in the long run.Do yourself a favor. Seek a consultation from an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon. These are the highest trained physicians who will give you the best chance of having a successful outcome. Yes you have to be comfortable with the price. However if the price is not right at this time it will likely be better for you to simply wait until you have a little bit more money to have the procedure done. There are many payment plan options available in most plastic surgeon's offices. Best wishes to you!
