These are based on averages of asking less then 10 doctors in various places around the country. Prices will vary.

Breast Surgery

- Breast Augmentation
$6,000- $9,000
Breast implants when bigger is better.

- Breast Reduction
$6,000 - $9,000
When smaller would be better.

- Breast Lift
$3,000 - $6,000
If gravity is getting you down, this lifts you up again and can also sometimes make them look bigger.

Facial Surgery
- Face Lift
$5,000- $10,000
A face lift can reduce wrinkles, lines and sagging skin

- Browlift
$2,500 - $5,000
A browlift can make you look younger by reducing or getting rid of wrinkles and lines.

- Rhinoplasty Or a nose job
$4,000 - $5,000
A rhinoplasty can be done to make the nose shorter, have less of a hump, make it more narrow or change the shape of the nose in many different ways.

- Otoplasty or Ear Surgery
$900 - $1200
Otoplasty can change the shape of the ears or how far they "stick out."

Body Surgery

- Liposuction
$3,000 - $10,000
Removal of fat from various parts of the body.

- Abdominoplasty Or A Tummy Tuck
$1,000 - $2000
Excess skin and fat from the middle and lower abdomen can be removed with a Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty). This procedure also tightens the muscles of the abdominal wall and dramatically improves the appearance of a protruding abdomen. Women in particular have a hard time strengthening these muscles after changes associated with pregnancy have stretched their abdomen to the limit. Weight loss can also cause loose skin in the abdominal area, which may be resistant to toning by exercise. Tummy tucks can be performed as an outpatient procedure, but some patients may be more comfortable staying in a hospital facility overnight.
