How Much Does a Skin-only Tummy Tuck Cost?

In the Houston area, the cost of a tummy tuck can vary from about 6000 - 9000 depending on the overall time it takes for the procedure and whether you are adding liposuction to the mix.  A skin only tummy tuck can still involve doing the same procedure if you are going above the belly button to remove as much loose skin as possible.  In addition, you have the exposure to tighten the underlying muscles, so you might consider tightening this as it may help enhance your form.  Good luck.

Thank you for your question.  Tummy tuck cost will vary significantly with geography.  It sounds like your operation will be a fairly easy one as tummy tucks go, but the fact that it is still a major operative procedure can not be overlooked.  Going to a well-qualified, board-certified plastic surgeon is the best means to optimize your safety.  With that in mind, a reputable tummy tuck in my area (New York City) is typically in the $10k-$15k range.
