Real numbers, sourced
What it costs
Every figure here is the average surgeon fee published by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, linked to its source on each page. It is the surgeon's fee only: anesthesia, facility and related expenses are extra, and each guide breaks those out. No made-up ranges, and nothing sponsored.

Common questions
What people ask about these figures
- Are these prices what I will pay?
- No. Each figure is the average surgeon's fee published by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, linked to its source on every guide. It is the surgeon's fee only: anesthesia, the facility and aftercare are billed on top of it, and each guide breaks those out, so a real quote runs higher than the number shown here.
- Why don't all procedures show a price?
- 12 of 13 procedures here have a sourced national average. Mommy Makeover does not: we publish a figure only when we can cite one, and no reliable single average exists for it. The reason is on its own cost guide rather than an invented range here.
- Which procedure costs the most, and which costs the least?
- Facelift has the highest average surgeon fee here, at $11,395. Eyelid Surgery has the lowest, at $3,359. Both are national averages; your own metro moves the real number up or down. Facelift cost breakdown
