I had lipo Jan 2016. I now have a burn that I would like to be cut off and stitched. I've been quoted 2,500 which I feel is a lot for such a small area to be cut off. (Almost the price of my lipo) Is this avarage pricing? The burn is on my ride side of my waist

Answer: The cost of revision surgery It's a free market so plastic surgeons can name their own price.Equally, patients have the choice to choose whom they go to.some surgeons are more competent than others and warrant a higher price.In your case I would first and foremost recommend you follow up with your plastic surgeon who owes you a scar revision.Considering what you have gone through I would expect that perhaps the plastic surgeon may have even refunded your money or should be willing to help pay for your revision surgery if you choose another doctor.medical insurance May also cover your surgery.I suggest you follow up with your plastic surgeon.You can always shop around for discount surgery.Best,Mats Hagstrom M.D.
