How much is a Tummy tuck and do you do payments or how does that work I have heard ppl say that they put a deposit down?

Hello, thank you for your question. Each PS has their own #paymentprotocol. Some offer in-house payments. There are also credit plans called #CareCredit and #Prosper which can help with the cost. You should not think of the costs when researching board certified plastic surgeons. Choose a PS who is skilled, has many great testimonies and before and after pictures. Sometimes cost equals quality. You can check on Realself to locate costs. There is a physician in #Anchorage who may be someone you can research. Best wishes to you!

 Tummy tuck factors vary significantly for a number of good
reasons: Prices vary greatly because the surgery itself encompasses a wide
range of techniques that can be performed to different extents. My
recommendation is to first find the most qualified surgeons where you want
the surgery performed that are board certified by the American Board of
Plastic Surgery you trust, then compare prices between them. See the below link
on suggestions on how to find the most qualified plastic surgeon for your
procedure. General Factors that influence the price of plastic surgery include:


1. Location - Will it be performed in a hospital
with an overnight stay, an independent out- patient facility or a doctor’s
office? Geographical location also has a significant influence. RealSelf has average
charges for most areas of the USA.


2. Type of Anesthesia - local, IV sedation or
General Anesthesia? Will a board certified anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist,
or an RN be used?

3. Experience and
training of your surgeon. The best and longest trained is most often a plastic surgeon
board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery

4. Length and
Complexity of Surgery - how difficult will your surgery be and how long it
will take, etc. Will other complementary procedures also be also performed
during the same surgery?Always insist on a board certified surgeon

I appreciate your question.

Prices vary 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 before scheduling your 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!
