Will Tummy Tuck surgery Cost Less if a Surgeon Has Their Own Surgical Suite?
I am seeking Tummy Tuck surgery in the Bay Area of California. I have consulted with 2 surgeons. The one I like will cost $18K (12K of which is his fee.) He has his own suite. The other, would cost $9K and does not have his own suite. Both come well recommended. At this point, I'm at a loss. At $18K, I feel this procedure is costing me more than it should. The highest cost I've read on this site is $14K. But I really like the doctor and he comes well recommended.
Plastic Surgery Costs
Thanks for the question. When seeking a plastic surgeon it is important to select someone who: Is well qualified and board certified by the American Board of Plastic SurgeryHas performed many of these proceduresTakes the time to discuss the risks, benefits and alternatives with youYou have a good rapport withTHEN price... Having your own surgery suite does not necessarily mean a higher or a lower price. It also does not mean the surgeon is well qualified to perform the procedure. The highest price also does not necessarily mean the best choice for you (nor does the lowest!). In our San Francisco area practice that price for a tummy tuck alone would be high. The fact that you're seeking additional input regarding your decision may mean you should consider talking to a few more surgeons. I hope this helps.
