info on plastics
there were several of you that wanted specifics on plastric surgery such as prices.
with Dr. Schassberger he also said the prices vary with how much work there is to be done.
for the abdominoplasty:
physician charge: $4200
hospital charge:$840
anesthesia charge: $435
my insurance company approved panniculectomy so I should get back approx. $1000-$1500
for mastopexy:
physicain charge: $1800
hospital charge: $700
anesthesia:$320
It all has to be prepaid. This is where I'm running into difficulty. I surely don't just have this money hanging around and they do not have financing available. My credit isn't the best or at least it could be better. I'm nervous to take on a new payment with the cost of gas and oil. This winter could be tough. However I hate my stomach. I really think I would feel transformation complete with the tummy tuck. I've decided not to have the BL. I can deal with them they at least look like breasts when I pour them into a bra.
Thank for listening hopefully someone will the above info helpful.
Hope you all had a great fourth.

THanks for this info, I am pretty certain this will be the road for me-after a year or so, and will have to add a face lift, too, so I think for 15,000 I could be 25 again...well, maybe not, but a better me!
HMMM..save my pennies!! Also need my arms done....yikes
