Pricing and Cost of Plastic Surgery Procedures around Australia
What does it cost? This is one of the first questions anyone usually asks when it comes to looking at plastic surgery. The answer is it varies a LOT.
We have done the research for you and come up with a general price guide for each procedure. These are an approximate guide only; each surgeon or doctor, surgery and clinic can vary dramatically in their pricing.
It will also depend on how much work is involved in your particular procedure, which hospital you choose and how much aftercare is required.
Whether you have the right level of Private Health Insurance cover or not can also make a big difference.
It pays to note that just because a particular surgeon charges less, does not by any means make them a less competent surgeon. In fact, quite a few of the leading surgeons actually have very competitive prices.
When asking for an estimate on a particular procedure make sure you ask the surgeon if that includes all the costs – surgeon fee, your hospital stay, the anesthetist, surgeon’s assistant (if req), support garments, medication and the pre-op and post-op consultation fees.
