Cost of Plastic Surgery Procedures

You Are Worth It

Plastic surgery is no longer only for the rich and famous.Now plastic surgery is available to virtually anyone who desires it. Plastic surgery is safe and affordable. Here at Carmel Cosmetic and Plastic Surgeons located just north of Indianapolis, IN we invite you to discuss your cosmetic surgery desires and goals with our two talented, female surgeons, Dr Elizabeth Grasee and Dr. Debra Bergman--because you are worth it!!

What Does It Really Cost?

There are several places to find estimates and averages of the costs for plastic surgery procedures. Carmel Cosmetic and Plastic Surgeons can be an invaluable tool in helping you to obtain a rough estimate. The estimate you obtain may be used for general planning purposes, to help you decide whether you might be able to afford a particular plastic surgery procedure prior to scheduling a consultation with a plastic surgeon. Remember, in order to obtain your total cost, the surgeon's fee as well as the facility and anesthesia fees should be obtained.There are many subtle variations on any given procedure and every variation can affect the cost. The only way to find out what your plastic surgery is really going to cost is by scheduling a consultation with a surgeon and have them give you an estimate based on the particular procedure you desire.

Should the Cost Factor Into My Surgical Decision?

Cost should be an important factor in deciding when or whether to have a plastic surgery procedure, but it should not be used as a chief factor in deciding who should perform your plastic surgery. When undergoing plastic surgery, you are putting your body, your health, and your expectations in the hands of the surgeon you choose—it is not worth taking a risk to save a few dollars. You should also not select a plastic surgeon simply because he or she is the most expensive. Charging more does not guarantee he or she is the best. Instead, pick the surgeon whose training, expertise, previous results, and personal connection with you give you the most confidence.

Can I Get The Cosmetic Result I Want Without Surgery?

The recent growth in nonsurgical procedures is partly due to their increased effectiveness and versatility, but it is also due to a perception that they are cheaper. For some people, nonsurgical procedures can be a good option, but before you make a decision based on cost alone, you should make sure you are comparing true costs. If, for example, you want BOTOX® Cosmetic injections to decrease the fine lines around you eyes only for a special occasion like a wedding or class reunion, it may be the best option. However, over time, the cost of BOTOX® Cosmetic, which will have to be re-administered about every three months, may be comparable to another rejuvenating surgical eye procedure, blepharoplasty, which can give results that last many years.
