Using our calculator is a simple, two-step process designed to give you a realistic price range in seconds.
Enter Your Zip Code: The cost of plastic surgery can vary significantly based on your geographic location. Enter your 5-digit zip code to help us tailor the estimate to your area.

Once you’ve entered both pieces of information, the tool will display the estimated low and high price range for your chosen surgery.
The price you see in the calculator is an estimate. The final cost of your surgery is influenced by several key factors.
The experience and expertise of your surgeon are significant components of the overall cost. A highly sought-after, board-certified plastic surgeon with years of experience will typically have higher fees than a less experienced practitioner. This fee covers the surgeon’s time and skill for the procedure itself.
Anesthesia is a critical part of most surgical procedures and its cost is separate from the surgeon’s fee. The price can vary depending on the type of anesthesia used (local, sedation, or general) and the qualifications of the anesthesia provider, whether an anesthesiologist or a certified registered nurse anesthetist (CRNA).
The location where the surgery is performed—be it a hospital, an outpatient surgery center, or a private surgical suite—will have its own set of fees. These costs cover the use of the operating room, equipment, supplies, and support staff.
As mentioned, where you have your surgery plays a major role in the cost. Major metropolitan areas with a higher cost of living, such as New York City or Los Angeles, generally have higher prices for plastic surgery compared to smaller cities or rural areas.
When you receive a quote from a surgeon, it will generally cover the primary expenses associated with the procedure.
Surgeon’s Fee: The cost for the surgeon performing the surgery.
Anesthesia: The cost for the anesthesia and the anesthesiologist’s services.
Operating Facility Costs: Fees for the use of the surgical facility.
Pre- and Post-Operative Appointments: The cost of your initial consultation and follow-up visits are often bundled into the total price.
It’s important to budget for expenses that may not be included in the initial surgical quote.
Medical Prescriptions: Pain medication and antibiotics needed during your recovery.
Post-Surgery Garments: Compression garments are often necessary to aid in healing.
Post-Operative Care: In some cases, you may need additional treatments or care to ensure a smooth recovery.
Time Off Work: Factoring in lost wages during your recovery period is an essential part of understanding the total financial commitment.
