Plastic surgeries or cosmetic surgeries are often intricate and invasive procedures that change the structure and look of a human body or face. Apart from aesthetic concerns like excess body weight, double chin, blunt nose, and large ears plastic surgery can treat congenital conditions like cleft lip or webbed feet too. Depending on the condition or problem it is used to treat, a plastic surgery procedure can be quite expensive. So, if you are thinking of tweaking a certain aspect of your figure or face, check out the most expensive plastic surgeries so that you are aware of the costs involved.

Lower body lift
Until last year, that is 2019, this was the most expensive plastic surgery in the country and it still continues to be so. Also, simply referred to as a body lift, this surgery removes the excess fat and sagging skin, by minimizing cellulite. This is performed on people for whom liposuction is not effective enough. For liposuction to be successful, the skin must have its elasticity, which it often loses. This is where lower body lift surgery is required. It involves making several incisions to remove the excess fat and skin. The ultimate idea is to reposition the stomach, thighs, groin, and buttocks tissues, all in one procedure.

Facelift
A facelift is not only one of the most expensive plastic surgeries but is also one of the most performed ones in the country. Facelifts are done to reduce sagging skin, jowls, deep creases, and double chin. The surgeon makes an incision along the hairline and around the chin. After this, the surgeon repositions the skin by removing the excess skin. Sometimes, a brow lift or eyelid surgery is done alongside a facelift for a better overall effect. The cost definitely goes up by a few notches in that case.

Tummy tuck
Also formally referred to as abdominoplasty, tummy tuck happens to be a surgery in which the skin around the belly and abdominal muscles are lifted. The surgeon will lift the skin to repair abdominal muscles and can trim to remove the excess skin. Sometimes, a new opening for the belly button is also created. No wonder, it is an expensive surgery. However, if you are planning a pregnancy or setting a weight loss goal, wait till those happen before going for a tummy tuck.

Breast reduction
Yet another of the most expensive plastic surgeries, breast reduction surgery is extremely effective for women who have large breasts and a lot of long-term health problems resulting from it. Large, sagging breasts can cause neck, back, and shoulder pain. Heavy breasts can create a lot of lifestyle problems for women too. During the breast reduction procedure, the surgeon removes the excess fat, tissue, and skin to create a shape that is more proportional to the woman’s overall body shape and size.

So, before you decide to go under the knife, remember this list of the most expensive plastic surgeries in the country. However, remember that the total costs will depend on where you get it done, the surgeon’s fees, and the level of complexity of the operation.
