Is Negotiating Cost a Myth?

July 16, 2013
Asked By:lyk4shr in Florida, NY

Several people (including some in the medical field) have mentioned to me, since most plastic surgery is elective, price can sometimes be negotiable. Is this true and a common practice in the PS field? Or is this an urban legend? I'd hate to insult a surgeon by asking to negotiate. Thank you!
