Location<\/h2>\n<p>The cost of abdominoplasty and other plastic surgeries can vary wildly. One of the biggest determinants of price is the location of your plastic surgeon. <strong>Areas like Los Angeles, New York City and San Francisco are going to be pricier than smaller, less populated locations like Bellevue.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Be wary of traveling for plastic surgery, especially if the price sounds too good to be true. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.denvertummy.com\/3-tips-to-ask-the-right-questions-at-your-tummy-tuck-consult\/\">Make sure your plastic surgeon is board certified<\/a><\/strong> and has an excellent reputation. You also want to try to stay as close to home as possible so you don\u2019t have to worry about a long car ride or staying in a hotel after your tummy tuck.<\/p>\n<p><strong>[pullquote]If you only have a small amount of excess skin in the area below your belly button, a mini tummy tuck might be appropriate.[\/pullquote]<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>2. Tummy Tuck Type<\/h2>\n<p>There are 2 main types of tummy tucks: full and mini. <strong>About 95% of people who are considering abdominoplasty will see optimal results with a full procedure.<\/strong> That said, the mini tummy tuck is a less extensive procedure, so it will generally cost less.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Inpatient vs. Outpatient<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Most tummy tucks can be performed as an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.emedicinehealth.com\/outpatient_surgery\/article_em.htm\">outpatient procedure<\/a>, meaning you should be able to go home the same day.<\/strong> However, if your plastic surgeon recommends an overnight stay after abdominoplasty, the cost will likely reflect this.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most people who are thinking about getting a tummy tuck want to know what kinds of costs are associated with this popular body contouring procedure.
