WOW this is so expensive.

 

One office quoted me at 20,000+ (:)) for self pay. I really want this to get done! If you know of a good surgeon in Fl that takes out of town clients please let me know I live near south FL.

 

I just want to be happy :thumbup:

    Hi MellBell....I live in South Florida and also self paid. I had it done 2 weeks ago with Strax Rejuvenation for only $10,500. Everyone at the clinic is super nice and Dr. Choi is very good. They have a free consultation so I recommend you try it out.

    They include 2 fills for free. The rest I believe are $250 each, (not so sure on the price since I didn't get it straight from them). I get my first fill on on 6/28. Make sure you write down your questions cause as soon as the doc comes you may forget them. lol It's just he is very quick and to the point so it makes you forget what you were going to ask. :-)

    Let me know how it goes!

    I got the lap band from Dr Choi two months ago at Strax, and I can still eat almost as much as I did before the surgery. I just got my first fill last week, and it did not help. I scheduled another fill next week. I am always hungry. This next fill had better work.
