Tummy Tuck California
|
Question: How much does a good tummy tuck usually cost in Southern California.?
I have had 3 C-Sections and I need to get rid of the excess skin.
Any one has experiences to share with me or to give me some advices?
I know that it depends on the surgery but i want to know the common
price rate. Can anyone help?
Answer: The price of a tummy tuck depends on a lot of things, so I can't give
you a specific answer.
It depends on your doctor's fees, the facility fees (since most plastic
surgeons do this type of surgery in a hospital, not their office!), how
much anesthesia you need (which depends on your weight and how long it
will take them to remove your body's excess skin), and what type of
"post-surgery" garments / girdles your doctor wants you to wear. My
tummy tuck (in Connecticut) cost just under $9000 a couple of weeks ago.
GET CONSULTATIONS FROM AT LEAST TWO DOCTORS. Look at their education,
how many surgeries they have done, if they have "before and after" pictures
of their own patients, and if you feel comfortable with them.
Also - see if they can help you with financing. My doctor set me up with
Capital One's Health Care Financing. Check and see if it is available in
California, too!
May I suggest to you a mini tummy-tuck. Your scarring will be less severe,
and they won't have to completely remove your belly botton and the skin
around it! The regular tummy-tuck can make your belly button look distorted,
and you will have scars from above the line of your pubic hair and up on
your sides. The mini tummy-tuck also costs less!
