Tummy Tuck
I got a fleur-de-lise tummy tuck in Massachusetts or about $7,500. (Massachusetts is expensive). I had estimate up to $15,000 for this procedure in Mass, so I think I did good.
I am so happy with my tummy tuck. I knew I wanted to do it, but I never imagined how important it was to my self-image. It really made a difference in my self- image - more than I anticipated.
Good luck with your efforts.

There's all kinds of different "tummy tucks". Will you be getting a mini-tuck? or one from hip-to-hip? or an extended that goes partially around the back? or will you do a full 360 degree cut? will there be muscle repair? will you also get lipo? if yes, how many areas? will it be done out-patient or in-patient? if in-patient how long does your doctor want you to stay in-patient?
Way, way too many variables to give you a good answer. You'd do better to call around to different places in your metro area and ask for their prices.
Insurance approved a panni removal (spelling). To finish the job, I paid $2,000. This was for the anchor cut style TT- and worth every friggin' penny! Edited to add: I also had muscle tightening and some lipo with this procedure, included in the quoted price.
