Hi guys, I know it's kind of early for me , but I can't stop thinking about how many plastic surgeries I'm gonna need. I know a lot of people go to Mexico, but I would like to be closer to home.
So if you had any kind of plastic surgery related to the weight loss, please share your experience in MD or VA and the local prices.
Thank you

You might want to post this on the plastic surgery board.

There are a few from Maryland that have had various surgeries.

I just had an extended tummy tuck, with breast lift and sailing implants on Friday. I researched and went to about 6 different plastic consultations. Some included dr. Deen jabs ( Rockville), dr. Kreiger ( Virginia) , dr. Michaels ( Bethesda /Rockville) . I decided on dr. Lickstein in Towson. Very professional office setting, and thus far very happy with every exchange I have had with his office. Happy with my hospital experience and results thus far. His prices were by far the most reasonable.

What I learned in going to so many consults is that some docs seem to want to charge you for every stitch so to speak. The dr. In va wanted 20,000 more for the same procedure. Ridiculous . I just made sure the one I picked was also very experienced and had good reviews. I would go as far as checking medical board web sites to look up complaints and search public court civil records to see if any law suits were ever filed.

Hope this helps.

Wait until you get close to your goal weight before going to consults because the work you need will change. But it's never to early to search for the right doctor for you.

Good luck.

 I had a tummy tuck, mons lift and thigh lift with Joseph Michaels in Bethesda in April and just went back on November 17th for a back lift and breast lift with auto augmentation -- I could not be happier with the results -- they really exceeded my expectations.  I would highly recommend him.  His prices were right in line with what I expected to pay and he was willing to work with me on my budget.  He had several financing options available however I did not use them.

Before you consider Mexico..and if MD and VA are too expensive...you may want to try California...I moved here from MD and was surprised with how cheap the prices are for plastics here..with reputable doctors...approx 4995 for tummy tuck...2995 for breast aug...the only thing I found that was expensive was butt implants...lol.....which was almost 10,000....just something to think about...
