TT & Breast Lift How Much Did you pay?



Recommended Posts

Hi there. The more weight I lose, the more I see I'm going to need surgery. Can you all tell me how you paid for your TT & Breast Lift?

I just did the TT only, no Brest lift just for the TT I paid 6250.

I went to a reconstructive plastic surgeon... A surgeon that does plastic surgery but not Hollywood style more focused on medical needs, with a primary focus in mastectomy and breast cancer reconstructive. I had a Full TT, Breast Lift with reduction, and Flank Lipo. Overnight hospital stay, anesthesia and all other expenses for $12,270. Cash payment so a discount was offered. I am more than pleased. My scars are even beautiful- not scraggly and messy.

I have gotten three different consults for a TT and breast lift. They range in cost (if done together, there is a discount associated with anesthesiology) from a low of $11,000 to a high of $14,300. The highest cost procedure includes an overnight hospital stay, which substantially increases out-of-pocket costs. I am in a "cheaper" part of the U.S. (i.e. middle of the country).

Whoa! I don't think I could afford any of those procedures upfront. Do any of these surgeons have payment plans? What about care credit?

Yes most of them accept care credit! I paid using care credit card! It was 6250 0% if paid within 12 month or 135 a month for 5 years

Yes, dawalsh, all of them work with care credit and similar medical credit companies (but no internal payment plans). Two of the three actually charge more if you use credit though, on top of any interest you may pay to the credit company. I can't quite figure it out, though one of the "disclaimer" forms I had to sign promising not to default on any credit payments because I was dissatisfied with the results of the procedure may give a clue. I wonder how many times that happens.

my Breast lift and augmentation as well as the Tummy Tuck was about 13k last December. I paid for it with interest free for 6 months care credit and cash.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
