Cost In Sacramento, Ca



Recommended Posts

I am looking at having

extended abdominalplasty, inner thigh lift, brachioplasty, outer thigh, hip, and buttock lift

I was given a cost of $30,000

this includes operating room and anesthesia

The Dr.'s aid said he gave me a discount as he charges more for patients who have not had wieght loss surgury.

I have been trying to do research and it seems like he is telling me the truth, but I wanted others opinions who have gotten cost analysis in Sacramento.

Thanks for your input

Using my insurance (Western Health Advantage) and going through UC Davis. panniculectomy is fully covered (skin and fat below the belly button only). Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck - skin, fat, reattach separated muscles, work above the belly button and re-sculpting) is $6K extra. Lower Body Lift (tummy tuck plus hips, buttocks lift and outer thigh smoothing) is $10K extra. I got these numbers yesterday. Just FYI since I'm also doing my research.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
