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.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
