LBL Costs

Is none ready to share their costs for a lower body lift with Dr. Joseph Michaels? I'm definitely in the market.

I don't know about Dr. Michaels specifically, but several people on here have had them do their LBL's, so I'm sure one of them will see this. I know when I started looking into plastic surgery 3 or 4 years ago, people on here told me to expect somewhere in the neighborhood of $8K-$10K per procedure, with the LBL counting as two procedures since they do so much with that one - including front and back. I had four consults, and that "guesstimate" did ring true (in other words, about $16K-$20K for an LBL. That was three years ago, though, so they may have gone up since then - but that should at least give you some idea).

Thank you!!

It's about 10k outside US and 15 to 20ish in US.

Hey there

What is a LBL & what does it intale?

LBL, is a Lower Body Lift, it is a incision all the way around, its also refered as Belt Lipectomy, or a 360.... basically tummy tuck in the front and butt lift in the back. All kinds of info on Facebook, Ontario Canada Plastic Surgery Groups.... there are atleast two groups that I am aware of. Lots of info....

I am a VSG patient. I will look into your surgeon. I have been wanting an LBL, but can hardly afford to get it done in the US. I'm also considering going abroad, to Mexico specifically. Not sure I will pay much less than in the US actually, but I have learned from other WLS patients on other boards, their results are great and prices were accessible.

I have been looking into Dr Sergio Soberanes in Tijuana. A bandster friend had an LBL by him a few years ago, and back them I remember seeing her results and she looked amazing. What I most liked was the flawless incision. I know everyone scars differently, but his work looked so neat. Anyone has had experience having surgery by him? Any feedback will be greatly appreciated :)

Hi I see you are in my area MV and wanted to hop in and say while I have not had any reconstructive surgery done I am also looking into it. I am planning on attending the conference in costa mesa this year and was told they do free consultations with a plastic surgeon this might help you to get an idea of cost. I am hoping that is the case for me as I will have to pay for it all out of pocket myself. Best of luck to you.
