What is your opinion on this Quote?
Yesterday I went to see my PS about my face, and he is also going to do a mastopexy revision at no additional surgical fee. (I still have to pay for OR time and Anesthesiologist for revision.) He recommended upper and lower bleph, lower face lift and Restylane injections in my cheeks. Today I received a quote from his coordinator saying it would be 8.5 hours OR time, that his total fee is $11,475 (mastopexy revision n/c) and the hospital OR, Anesthesiologist and overnight stay is $5,587. So, I'm looking at $17,000. Please chime in.
Thanks,
Terri

It's not how fast you go, but that you're moving in the right direction!
I am not sure what all it is that your having done ( I am a PS Noobie) so I have no clue if that is a good price or a wow price.
I know I am done with my PS and the 13k I spend was well worth it and I would do it again in a heartbeat.
Good luck to you!

I think that is a bit much. I'd get another consult or two.
I'm having the same procedurs done this fall - included my Breast lift and Aug. My quote includes a breast lift and aug, so I can't really say if yours is too high.

By the way, one of these days, I'm going to try to catch up with you. We just finished a project in Grand Junction, almost finished Montrose, and have two on the boards: Castle Rock, and your neck of the woods: Littleton. We'll be out there on the 22nd and 23rd doing a punch list walk through on the Montrose project. Once Littleton is underway, I might be PMing you to see if you'd like to meet Kevin and me for dinner.

As to the face work? Sorry, I have NO IDEA since I've never had that quoted. I suggest another consult or two; then you'll have an idea if this is standard for your area, since prices can vary widely across the country. Good luck.

Whiteford is in Northern Harford County. I'm less than a mile from the Mason-Dixon Line, just below Delta, PA in York County. Very rural, very beautiful.

Hijack!
it says you live in NM now! Where in NM? I lived in Albuquerque for 22 years. I was born there but raised in S. Cali and returned after graduating college.
