How Much Does A Tummy Tuck Cost In Calfornia?
Posted under: 
When considering plastic surgery in California it is important to research several plastic surgeons, their qualifications, their certifications, and most importantly, their cost. With the range of prices available due to the growing popularity of plastic surgery in California, it can be affordable for almost anyone these days. However, the amount you pay could directly affect the results you ultimately have to live with.
According to realself.com, numerous doctors posted what they typically charge for a basic tummy tuck in different parts of California, including San Francisco and the Los Angeles area where business is booming for plastic surgeons. The average price seems to settle at about $6,000 to $7,000 if it is just a general skin pull with little muscle rearranging done. It is also the least amount of money you will spend, with the cheapest tummy tuck available being around $4,500, not including the cost of the facility and anesthesia. However, if additional liposuction is needed, that tacks on anywhere between $2,000 and $4,000.
On the high end of the tummy tuck scale, ljsc.com in the San Diego/La Jolla area is running a special for a basic tummy tuck starting at around $9,000. Additional lipo, if needed, starts at $1990 and they emphasize strongly that because women’s bodies vary so much, what may be necessary for one woman (i.e., additional lipo, future procedures), may not be necessary for another.
Further north in the Bay Area, An Enhanced You, run by Dr. Robert M. Lowen MD., the price range quoted is between $11,000 to $15,000. Many of these offices include in the price fees for anesthesia and the facility fees for the operating room as well, and is something to take in to consideration when doing research on a surgeon and the facilities used. Ask what the baseline cost will be, and the additional charges that may be incurred to give you a clear picture of your final bill.
Bear in mind that although going with a board certified plastic surgeon may cost a couple thousand more, the end results are what matter. Do extensive research and find the right surgeon for you, with many, many success stories. Many surgeons keep a photo book of patients, (faceless of course, to avoid HIPAA violations), and will provide it upon request. Be mindful of scar locations, and overall results at different stages in the healing process of other patients having a similar procedure.
