Hi there Dawn, Well I have researched this for the past 2yrs and I just had my tummy done on June 19th. It was exactly $4000, however what is NOT included is the hospital/surgery place fee for using the facility, the anesthialogist. PLUS it all depends how long they estimate the surgery. So you may be able to shop around but remember you get what you pay for and it may be worth it to just wait and save a little bit more for the results you want. I wouldn't change a thing.... I had my arms and tummy done at the same time, 7 1/2 hours surgery and I am OH SO HAPPY!! Its been 4wks tomorrow and tummy has healed faster than my arms. My PS took off 6pds of skin from tummy and 2pds from each arm. It was worth the wait, I am 3yrs out 182 now and size 12 and happy. I tried on my jeans, mind you I am still vvverry very swollen but jeans fit with no rolls hanging on waistline and they feel comfortable!! I waited a long time for this so don't ru**** either.... plus on STD from work and getting paid for my time off. Well good luck to you in your journey, it just seems that every part of this adventure we are in has many journeys. Kim
