LBL & Breast Lift/Reduction costs



Recommended Posts

Hi all! I am 37 pounds from goal and determined to get there. I have been at the same weight for 18 mos. I had my lap band 3 years ago. I will definitely be getting a LBL & Breast work done. After going to a surgeon yesterday I am somewhat discouraged by cost. Is anyone willing to share general ballpark for this? I have seen a few answers in other threads. I am in Oregon but am thinking of going to Texas for surgery. I am guessing things would be cheaper there but maybe I am wrong. The Portland surgeon's quote was over $19000 for the LBL and around $10000 for breast lift/reduction.

Thanks to everyone who share their PS stories and pics, it is SO helpful!

I just had a LBL and brachioplasty. It was approximately $14,000. I am having a breast aug/lift with bra line back lift, stomach Lipo, inner/outer thigh lipo and medial thigh lift done in May and that is approximately $19000.

I have posted a thread - jfran goes for plastics. You can see some pics there.

Your prices may be a tad high, but its different everywhere. My second surgery has been discounted a lot because I am a return patient.

I am from TN so things tend to run a little cheaper here.

Hope this helps, good luck getting to goal. I had been plateaued for 9months and decided just to go for it even though I was 25lbs from goal. I am glad I did.

Have you checked to see if your insurance would pay for the reduction? Do you have back, neck, or shoulder pain that started or got worse after weight loss?

      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.
