COSMETIC
SURGERY FEES
Cosmetic
surgery has become remarkably affordable as the field of plastic/cosmetic
surgery has gotten more competitive and many people have decided
that aesthetic enhancements are a good way to spend some of their
disposable income. Also, with the use of credit cards, and medical
financing a facelift could be as little as $150 per month. A number
of financial components make up the cost of cosmetic surgery.
PHYSICIANS
FEES
Physicians
fees vary greatly across the country and even within a geographical
area or city. Overhead expenses, the physicians experience, the
geographic area, the laws of supply and demand, and what the market
will bear can all be determining factors.
IMPLANT MATERIAL
The cost
of implant materials for augmentation of the breasts, calves, cheeks,
chin, lips, and so on may be quoted separately or could be included
in the surgical or facility fee. Make sure that you ask whether
this cost in included so that you are not surprised with additional
costs afterwards.
FACILITY
FEES
Cosmetic
surgery is performed in hospitals, outpatient facilities, and physicians
own surgical centers. Fees can vary accordingly, even within a geographical
area. Facility fees are generally separate from the surgical fees.
ANESTHESIOLOGIST
FEES
These fees
are quoted as estimates and may or may not be a part of the facility
charges. You may receive additional billing(s), depending on the
actual length of your procedure.
LAB
FEES
Most
physicians require certain lab tests to determine your health prior
to surgery. The type of surgery to be performed, your medical
history, and the physicians preference determine the type and extent
of the tests.
