What is the cost of a lipoabdominoplasty in Portugal in 2024? This question has undoubtedly crossed the minds of many women considering this procedure.
First and foremost, it is important to understand what a lipoabdominoplasty entails. As the name suggests, it combines two surgical techniques, liposuction and abdominoplasty, into a single surgery to reshape the abdominal region.
Clarify all your doubts about the price of a lipoabdominoplasty in this article.
Do you know what a lipoabdominoplasty is?
Lipoabdominoplasty is a plastic surgery that combines two surgical techniques in a single procedure: lipo-suction and abdominoplasty.
It has been increasingly recognized as one of the most performed plastic surgeries worldwide.
The primary candidates are women who have been mothers or have experienced significant weight fluctuations and are dissatisfied with the appearance of their abdomen, showing localized fat deposits, sagging, and sometimes even abdominal diastasis, which is the separation of the muscles in the abdominal wall that gives a bulging appearance.
By combining liposuction and abdominoplasty, lipoabdominoplasty aims to remove unwanted fat deposits, excess skin, and reposition the muscles in the abdominal wall.
To undergo this surgery, a woman should have a stable weight, be healthy, have realistic expectations about the procedure, and not consider having more children.
Benefits:
The result will be:
- a more harmonious body contour, with reduced abdominal volume;
- a rejuvenated appearance;
- an improvement in self-esteem, health, and the quality of life for women.
One of the signif-icant advantages of lipoabdominoplasty is combining the effects of liposuction and abdominoplasty in a single surgery, with only one anaesthesia session and a recovery period.
The results provided by lipoabdominoplasty are generally long-lasting, especially when a woman maintains a healthy lifestyle, including balanced nutrition and regular physical exercise.
How much does a lipoabdominoplasty cost?
Now that you know what a lipoabdominoplasty involves, let's talk about prices. The costs for a lipoabdominoplasty in Portugal start, on average, at 7,000 euros and can go up to 10,000 euros. However, it is important to note that there are no standard prices in the field of plastic surgery. The values will always depend on the patient and each specific case.
For example, the cost of lipoabdominoplasty depends on the size of the area to be treated, the amount of fat to be removed, and the necessary surgical techniques.
To ensure the price that will be applied to your situation, you should schedule an assessment consultation. Here, you will have the opportunity to express your concerns and goals to the plastic surgeon, clarifying all doubts. The doctor will evaluate your abdomen and outline the treatment options most suitable for your case and goals. After all explanations and information are provided, you will receive a detailed and accurate quote for your case after the medical consultation.
What is included?
When considering the price of lipoabdominoplasty, we often only think about the intervention. However, the cost of surgery includes much more than that.
Firstly, the price covers the fees of a multidisciplinary medical team, including not only the plastic surgeon but also nurses, anaesthetists, physiotherapists, and other assisting technicians.
The cost of lipoabdominoplasty also includes a sterile and fully equipped oper-ating room with the necessary equipment and materials for the surgery, as well as anaesthesia.
Post-surgical follow-up is also included, consisting of follow-up consultations and necessary treatments after the intervention, including post-surgical physiotherapy sessions and lymphatic drainage, essential for a faster, more effective, and comfortable recovery.
The presented prices may also cover some post-surgical materials, such as compression garments and medication.
Your safety and health come first
Many people who plan or dream of undergoing plastic surgery often have the cost as one of their main concerns. Although the price factor is important, other aspects take precedence and must be considered by those aspiring to undergo lipoabdominoplasty. After all, health and safety should always come first.
The prices of plastic surgery consider factors that should not be overlooked, such as the reputation of the clinic, the professional experience of the plastic surgeon and the rest of the team, and the quality of the equipment and materials used.
Be attentive and wary of offers that seem too advantageous. When the price is very low, there is a risk of unexpected situations, such as not having proper post-operative follow-up or not achieving a satisfactory result.
Therefore, start by informing yourself and conducting extensive research on the best clinics in your region and the plastic surgeons working in them. Research information about the clinic, and the medical team, and consult testimonials from other patients who have undergone the same surgery you intend to do. The choice of a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon is essential to ensure a safe and effective proce-dure and the achievement of the desired result. The investment in your self-confidence and your health and well-being is invaluable.
