Q: I was wondering if it is in my best interest to not only compare the surgeons’ ability but does the cost vary from practice to practice for the same procedures?

A: There are many factors that go into plastic surgery pricing. Overhead costs vary by location and type of practice. There are some areas of the country where the cost of doing business is high – like Manhattan and LA for instance. It is more expensive to operate a medical practice in those areas than in some other areas of the country so those practices tend to charge more. Surgery tends to be more expensive to perform in hospitals than in outpatient or office based surgery centers. The other factor that goes into pricing is the surgeon’s skill and experience. Everyone has a budget so I understand the need to factor cost into decision making when selecting a surgeon. However, this is a very important decision and I don’t recommend using price as the sole factor. Look for a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in your procedure of interest.

I was wanting to get lipo on my stomach hips and thighs plus a Brazilian butt lift, is all that needed when they take it anyway?

I was wanting to get lipo on my stomach hips and thighs plus a Brazilian butt lift, is all that needed when they take it anyway?

A: I perform several Brazilian Butt Lifts each week in my surgery center outside Atlanta, Ga. While liposuction is included in the procedure, some people choose to add on additional areas (for an additional fee). The Brazilian Butt lift includes reshaping the lower torso. If that yields enough fat for the butt enlargement, any additional liposuction you require would be performed at an additional cost. Depending on my patient’s fat stores, sometimes I need to harvest fat from other areas in order to get enough fat to give them the size and shape butt they desire. This is something that can be discussed in a consultation

Miracle Tummy Tuck

Miracle Tummy Tuck

Dr. Jimerson is a miracle worker. He reviewed my body and made some suggestions and encouraged my follow-up care. I got a tummy tuck. It was the catalyst for a life change. The extra skin came off and with it almost 50lbs. I went from cutting the size out of my clothing (to avoid the double digit number) to a size 4. Follow Dr. J’s guidance and watch your transformation. Dr. J does his part but you must do yours. DR. J CHANGED MY LIFE!!
