Plastic Surgery

[Guest guest]

I have been reading many of the posts as I am new to this bulletin

board. Can some of you tell me what it cost you to have tummy tucks

and the such? I consulted with a doctor about 2 mos ago and I got

sticker shock over the " body Lift " (tummy tuck with work on the hips

and part of the back). The surgeon quoted about 10 to 15K because it

would require a hospital stay. Souned high to me but he is in Boca

Raton Fla and the hospital stay would do it!

I am also looking at a breast lift/enlarge and having my arms and

that area below the arm pit. All is so loose!!!

These are the #'s that I know of. My surgery (paid for by insurance) was

$23,000 for abdominoplasty, breast reduction/lift and liposuction under

my arms along my sides. I have a friend who was a cash pay patient that

paid $14,000 for an abdominoplasty, breast lift and brachioplasty. This

should give you a general idea of prices. I am sure each surgeon charges

differently, but maybe it can help diminish some of your sticker shock.

I paid $12,000 for an abdominoplasty with lipo, a

thigh lift and lateral truck incision. I was self-pay also.
