NEW YORK, May 8, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Credello: Thanks to so many new developments in medical tech, elective surgeries are becoming more available and affordable for patients worldwide.
Plastic surgery is one of the top categories for elective surgeries. Now with lasers and robotics becoming so advanced, many procedures that used to be very expensive are becoming more affordable.
But before you start looking for the best personal loan for plastic surgery, you should still realize that these types of surgeries still come with a hefty price tag few insurances will cover, so it's critical you understand both the medical and financial side effects that can come with a little nip or tuck.
How we determined the cost of plastic surgery procedures
We've gone through the most popular medical debt myths and facts and looked at pricing all around the U.S. to find what we feel is the most realistic median price you'll see. While it's true that both the procedure and hospital you've chosen will affect your final cost, there are other factors that we've used to help find an average price for these popular surgeries. Please note that your final cost may differ based on certain criteria that can affect the price, like your preferred surgeon, geographic location, payment options, insurance coverage, etc.
Below, we've covered the top 6 most popular surgical procedures, both surgical and not.
Microdermabrasion
Average cost: $167
What it is:
Microdermabrasion is a cosmetic treatment that uses a microdermabrasion machine to remove the top layer of skin cells. This can improve the appearance of certain skin problems, like age spots and blemishes.
How it works:
The microdermabrasion machine uses tiny crystals or pads to remove the top layer of skin cells. This can improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, and age spots.
Botulinum Toxin (BOTOX)
Average cost: $466
What it is:
BOTOX is a botulinum toxin used to treat conditions such as frown lines, drooping eyelids, and excessive sweating.
How it works:
BOTOX injections are given into the muscle below the skin to reduce the amount of muscle activity. This can improve the look of these conditions by reducing the appearance of wrinkles and lines.
Injection Lipolysis (KYBELLA)
Average cost: $941
What it is:
Injection Lipolysis is a cosmetic treatment that uses injections of a chemical called bevacizumab to tighten and reduce the size of fat cells in the skin.
How it works:
The bevacizumab injections work by stopping the growth of new fat cells. This can improve the look of areas like the stomach, love handles, and trunk.
Breast augmentation
Average cost: $4,516
What it is:
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that adds size, shape, and density to the breasts.
How it works:
The surgeon will use either silicone or saline implants to add size and shape to the breasts. These implants can be filled with either saline or silicone gel, giving you the desired look and feel.
Rhinoplasty (nose jobs)
Average cost: $5,483
What it is:
Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that fixes problems with the nose, such as enlarged septums (the dividing line between the nostrils), crooked noses, and noses that are too wide or too narrow.
How it works:
The surgeon will remove excess skin and tissue from the nose, which can improve the nose's look by correcting these problems. They may also perform septoplasty (reconstructing torn septums) or cartilage ablation (removing cartilage cells to reduce nasal width).
Liposuction
Average cost: $3,637
What it is:
Liposuction is a surgical procedure that uses a vacuum to remove fatty tissues from the body.
How it works:
The liposuction machine uses strong suction to remove fat cells from the treated area. This can reduce the appearance of cellulite, love handles, and excess skin.
The bottom line
While plastic surgery prices are becoming more affordable thanks to advances in medical tech, it's still important to remember that some of these are invasive procedures that must be considered. Speak with your doctor for recommendations, always research your options, and thoroughly vet your surgeon before committing.
