Brazilian butt lift plastic surgery is viewed by many patients not just as an investment in their cosmetic appearance, but also as a way to boost their self-confidence. However, the procedure is elective in nature, and will not be covered by health insurance. Therefore, the patient should have a clear idea of the estimated costs in order to make an informed decision.
The plastic surgeon will explain all aspects of the procedure, including its costs during the pre-op consultation. Board certified plastic surgeons at MBody provide Brazilian butt lift to patients in Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg, and surrounding communities.
Price Factors
The cost of Brazilian butt lift plastic surgery can vary from one practice to another and even from one patient to another at the same practice in some cases. The following factors may influence the actual cost of procedure:
Geographical Factor
Location of the practice plays a key role in determining the costs of a cosmetic procedure such as Brazilian butt lift. Major urban centers will typically have higher real estate costs and the overall living costs may also be higher. Therefore, practices located in such areas will usually have slightly higher costs of procedures than the ones located in smaller towns or remote areas.
Fee Charged by the Surgeon
The plastic surgeon may charge a fee for Brazilian butt lift according to their skills, experience and reputation in the field of body lift and body contouring procedures. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, patients should choose the best surgeon for their needs, and focus on getting the procedure done right rather than allow their decision to be governed by secondary concerns such as the surgeon’s fee.
Anesthesia and Surgical Room Costs
While Brazilian butt lift may be performed using local anesthesia in many cases, some patients may need to have general anesthesia. This will involve the fee of the anesthesiologist or the registered anesthetist nurse who will be present throughout the surgery to monitor the patient’s condition. The procedure may be performed at a hospital, an accredited ambulatory surgical center or a private surgical suite. The costs and benefits in each case will vary.
Extent of Surgery
In a situation where the patient requires substantial fat transfer to the buttocks, the surgeon may have to perform liposuction in multiple donor sites to draw the necessary fat tissue. Some patients may need an additional body lift procedure to achieve more uniform results. Patients suffering from any chronic condition may have a longer recovery, which could have fiscal implications for working people.
In view of such situations, the actual costs of Brazilian butt lift may slightly vary in each case. MBody receives patients from Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg, and nearby areas for various surgical procedures, including Brazilian butt lift.
