Estimated cost for a tummy tuck

I wish I can give you a concrete answer from cost for a tummy tuck. Tummy tuck estimated cost varies from practice to practice, and varies because of geographic location.

Are you ready for a Tummy Tuck

Abdominoplasty estimated cost

From your photograph I see excess loose skin which can be removed during a tummy tuck. It is very important to first lose excess weight and get closer to your desired weight before having a tummy tuck. If there is significant fat beneath the tummy skin this will limit the amount of skin removal and tightening and could interfere with optimal healing. (Brooke R. Seckel, MD, FACS, Boston Plastic Surgeon)

Am I ready for a tummy tuck?

You will be ready for a TT as soon as your upper abdomen is lower than your ribs when you lie on your back on a firm surface like the floor. Right now from the standing picture it looks like you may still have considerable internal fat giving that upper abdominal bulge and that cannot be corrected with a TT. (Ronald V. DeMars, MD, Portland Plastic Surgeon)
