Price Of A Tummy Tuck
|
Question: Does anyone know the price range for a tummy tuck and liposuction
or any good websites?
I have heard that tummy tuck is safer for pregnancy women so I want
to try. But i haven't found much information on this tummy tuck.
Can anyone give me some suggestions or source of information to
learn about?
Answer: I just had a tummy tuck done in Connecticut on Tuesday, and it really
depends on where you live. I had a full tummy tuck with hip liposuction
and it cost just under $9000. I visited another doctor (also in Connecticut)
who would do the same surgery, but at his office in Manhattan, and it would
cost $14,000! My doctor's fees were $6500, facility fees, anesthesia, and
your girdle/binder are other fees that you need to consider. Connecticut
is an expensive place to live, so it would probably be cheaper in other
states.
Also, I was a GREAT candidate for a tummy tuck because I had an over-distended
stomach due to a twin pregnancy three years ago. DIET AND EXERCISE were NOT
going to get rid of it...it was too overstretched. CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR first,
and a plastic surgeon, to see if they feel a tummy tuck is truly the only option
for you. Maybe you can get rid of it some other way.
My doctor (in Connecticut) has a website, but no fees are posted because it truly
depends on the individual and facility. Her site was http://www.drdeborahpan.com .
