How much did you pay for your lower body lift?

Hi Everyone,

I had my consult with the plastic surgeon today and he is recommending I go with a lower body lift. He thinks that based on my body that if I only did the tummy tuck that I would not be thrilled with the results and would have a large chance of bumps at the end of the incision.

I just wanted to get a bit of a sense as to what people paid for this surgery to know if the quote I am going to get is realistic.  I would love to hear from anyone who has gone through 100% self pay and partial coverage for the panni.

Also, are you happy you went with the full body over just the tummy tuck? How was the recovery?

Thanks!

Jenn

Maybe post on the plastic surgery forum? Let them know you're Canadian. Prices will vary by physician. If you get OHIP to approve your panni, that knocks off APPROX. $5k in hospital fees. Panni is overnight, and LBL could be a longer hospital stay....this might change your price too.

Lower body lift with my surgeon in London, Ontario is about 12K 100% self pay.
