Tummytuck cost vary from Dr. to Dr. A Good tummytuck can range anywhere from $3,000 to $10,000 just depending on what all you want done. The average tummytuck cost about $5,000, so Don't be fooled by a cosmetic surgeon who promises you a cheap tummytuck, there are always hidden fees that they don't tell you about. So make sure that you ask for a detailed explination of what all the fees are before you agree to anything.
A Tummytuck involves different kinds of anasthesia, sometimes a tummytuck can be done while you are awake and fully alert, all you will feel is a slight tugging an pulling. There are instances where the surgeon will put you fully under, (put you to sleep). So if your really considering getting a tummytuck you should consult with more than one cosmetic surgeon before you settle on one. You want to find out the exact cost and exactly how he will perform the procedure.
Every tummytuck is different, so it really depends on the surgeon, you, and your health as to whether or not the surgeon puts you under so to speak, to do your tummytuck.
Most insurance companies don't cover the cost of a tummytuck by the way, unless it's a life threatning situation, so your tummytuck cost will come out of your pocket unless it's a medical emergency.
