Default Decision

So I looked at several options with 3 surgeons and I decided on Dr. Sarosy.
For a standard tummy tuck he charges $5195. I also got a quote on an extended tummy tuck and it was $7000 but both the dr. and his assistant really didn't think the extended was necessary.

I also got 2 quotes from Mexico and Dr. Quiroz quoted me 10,500 for a body lift and breast lift with implants. Dr. Fuentes quoted me 9475 for an extended tummy tuck with lipo and a breast lift with implants. Both the Mexican drs required you get your own lab work and that you stay in a recovery center or hire a private nurse to stay in a hotel with you in baja california. I just didn't want to do that, however, I will probably get my boobs done there because the lift with implants alone is only $4200 and in the US I was quoted $6500.

Anyway, my tummy tuck is booked in San Diego on 08/27/09. I'm so excited!!!!
