Are you a good candidate for abdominoplasty?

The best candidates for a tummy tuck are women near their ideal weight, in good health and have realistic expectations of what can be achieved with the surgery.

They have a buildup of fat or excess skin on the abdomen that does not improve with diet or exercise.

This surgery is often performed on women who have had multiple pregnancies, which has produced sagging skin and abdominal muscles.

Surgery can be performed on patients over the age of 18. There is no age limit for a tummy tuck, although all patients should have a preoperative check-up to ensure they are fit for the surgery.

Examples of ideal candidates for a tummy tuck are:

• Those who have lost a lot of weight and found themselves with excess skin in the abdomen area;
• Those who after pregnancy have tense abdominal muscles and skin, resulting in saggy skin on the stomach;
• Those who have lost weight through diet and exercise, but still feel that their stomachs are not in proportion to the rest of their body, and the skin usually lacks elasticity for liposuction surgery alone ;
• Those who have already had a Caesarean section and who have retracted scars.

What are the prices for abdominoplasty surgery?

The Régie de l’Assurance Maladie du Québec (RAMQ) does not cover abdominoplasty surgery or private insurance. In addition, prices are rarely mentioned on private websites, as probably their rates are unaffordable.

Be sure to ask if the costs include the following services:

• The surgeon’s fees;
• The costs of anesthesia;
• Insurance in the event of a complication;
• The materials;
• The costs of hospitalization and operating facilities;
• Medical tests required before the operation;
• Imaging and x-rays;
• Post-operative clothing;
• Prescriptions of drugs.

Here is a table concerning the prices of abdominoplasty in Canada, the United States, Mexico, and Colombia, including the introductory fees, therefore of the surgeon, the anesthesiologist, and the operating room.

Note that the plane ticket price to Cartagena is the same as Mexico, around the US $ 450. Accommodation in Cartagena for a 3-star hotel is US $ 300 per week or US $ 600 per week for a 4-star hotel.
