How much does a tummy tuck cost?

I live in ohio(I know location has some effect on cost), had a baby, and am going to try to fix my tummy with exercise. But if by next year it hasn't worked I'm very interested in a tummy tuck. Have you had a tummy tuck or know how much it costs?

They range from about $3,000 to $10,000.

Remember you get what you pay for though.

Go get some consultations to see what it'll cost and see who you feel most comfortable with since they will be cutting you open.

Look around your area at different locations, but mostly at hospitals.

DO NOT go to a "med-spa"!! They aren't licensed to do most of the things they do, but they don't care since it's easy enough to close shop.

It's better to have any operation in a hospital rather then an office by the way, it's just safer/cleaner/easier.

If you are even thinking of having any more children in the future (near or distant), DO NOT get the operation. You'll just get complications in the subsequent pregnancy/pregnancies and you'll need to do the surgery over again.

To be totally honest, most people think they look worse then they really do appear. When you're working out your body, work out your mind too!! Think positive and you'll literally think yourself skinny!! :-)

    My aunt had a tummy tuck but she actually gained all the weight back. a tummy tuck starts at 3,000! There is a way you can drop 2-3 sizes in minutes without a tummy tuck, diet pills, or exercise!!!

    For women, Ardyss International has a complete line of body reshaping garments that help restore the shape of the body.
    What these garments do is called "Lipo Transportation." That means it moves the fatty tissue in the body from where it is to the places it's supposed to be. On a woman's body, there are only two places where fat tissue is necessary: the breasts and buttocks.


    The Ardyss Body Magic, their flagship reshaping garment, addresses every problem area on a woman's body, in that it flattens the tummy, lifts the breasts, reshapes the legs, lifts and reshapes the buttocks, straightens the back and pulls the shoulders back to correct posture, giving a woman the shape and posture she had in her younger years. This garment will allow women to drop 2 to 3 dress sizes in minutes. But when worn over time, it will reshape the body through weight and inches lost.


    It is important to note that the Body Magic is not a girdle, but a body reshaper. Meaning, if a woman will wear her Body Magic on a regular basis, her body will begin to take on the shape it's in when it is inside
    the garment. Liken it to Jell-O and a mold. Any time you put Jell-O in a mold, it will take on the shape of the mold that you put it in. In regards to a woman's body and the Body Magic body shaper, the
    same rules apply. A woman's body is the Jell-O, and the Body Magic is the mold.

    I personally have worn the Body Magic & Seen the results!!!!!!!

    It averages $140 + shipping!!! What a savings over $3,000, right? LOL!

    Attaching the website. Call the customer service #, they will help you get the correct reshaping garment for you and guide you through the measurements needed.

    Good luck!
