Price of PS

Went today for consultation for a TT. Prices....Panniculectomy $7,770.00 Circumferential Body Lift $13,305.00 Circumferential Body Lift Posterior (was given this in case insurance would only pay for the panni, then my pay to have the back part done, would be....$6,210.00 I was told my insurance would most likely not pay for a TT, cause it doesn't hang low over my pubic region. I have saddle bags on the side though, but since they don't interfere with anything they wouldn't consider this. I think I am gonna go ahead and have it turned into insurance, and at least see what they say. Dee

WOW!!!!!  That is some $$$$$$$$$ Good luck with insurance, you never know........... I guess I will be living with mine.  That's ok.  As a "lightweight" I don't have the skin issue as bad as some, and I may never get to goal so I will be grateful for what I've got at this point. I DO have to say that since I have been exercising, my arms look much better!  So maybe there IS hope. Have a great day Dee and glad to see you back!

Hi Dee,  The insurance companies do what they want to do. And, PS for some reason is generally not covered. I hope for your sake I am wrong.  Happy Holidays, Lisa

It never hurts to submit.  Is all they can say is yes or no and you don't know unless you try.   Best of Luck! Christina

The prices seem correct. I was quoted just about the same amount for the LBL from two different doctors. I did not have the lift in the rear area but had a revision of my open RNY scar. Consider having the saddle bags done at another time because the LBL with the rear done is an extensive surgery. Christine
