plastic sugery

I am wondering for anyone who has had plastic sugery if $14,998 for extended tummy tuck, breast lift and enlargement is expensive or cheap or in the ballpark of normal for Minnesota. The amount includes all fee barring any complications. Thank you very much for you time and any replies.

In comparison - I paid $11,500 for a torsoplasty (tummy tuck and butt lift..cut all the way around andup the front) plus a breast lift with no implants - all done outpatient - back in 2004.  Your price is probably about right for 2009.

thank you so very much for your reply

are you happy you did the procedure??

Definitely.  I always felt fat even though I had lost 150 lbs.  I had to stuff my gut into my pants and my boobs were like tennis balls in tube socks.  The pain of the torsoplasty really SUCKED...but I'd do it again in a heartbeat.  It was the icing on the cake after the weight loss.  Good luck to you!

I had the same thing done and really worth it .  i paid 15,000.  3 yrs ago

What dr?

Dr.David Smith in Edina Smith Plastic Surgery Center 6545 France Ave. I have never even had my hair done in a salon in my life and I am considering this.....

If I have it done, I am having the tummy tuck in Jan and the breat uplift and implant in March.

I went to the plastic surgery seminar at the Gala last weekend.  Dr. Knutsen said typical cost per procedure is $7500 - combined he thought would be less than double, so $15k seems a little high but not too far off, unless you are actually having 3 procedures if the lift and enlargement count as 2.
