    these numbers are super inaccurate, lol

    PPT vaginoplasty is probably going to be a lot more than $20,000 (with anaesthesia, a week recovery in the hospital, etc. that total is going to be a lot more, $100,000 - $150,000 is more accurate, but that’s why you get it covered by insurance).

    You can get unlimited laser for all body parts at Milan for like $10,000, so $22,000 is more than double what the most expensive laser option should be.

      It would be $20,000 if you get it done in Thailand. Not everyone can get it covered by insurance.

      I went to Milan to get a price for facial & neck (just to check how much I would save up) and it was $8,800, so $9,000 is pretty accurate for that part in particular

        For my face and neck I paid like € 1,800. Without insurance, that is.

        With insurance I could’ve paid € 0, but that involves sending your pictures to the insurer. No thanks.

          Hey its the user you’re testing blocking on. I can also see your profile and replies you’ve made while I’m blocked, as well as upvote them and reply to them.

          Edit, so I can contribute to the thread just a bit: a friend of mine got her FFS in South America and while i didnt ask how much it cost, there ain’t no way she paid $40k for that. She said she went down there because even with the vacation costs added, it was cheaper to do it there than in the US.

        the fee you pay is different than the total costs, I paid $1,000 for my PIV, but the total costs were still over $100,000. That’s not including the thousands I spent on a hotel room for the week after I was discharged but not permitted to go home yet.

        Edit: I should say I’m in the US, there are cheaper options elsewhere like Thailand. There is even a very cheap option in Thailand where they don’t put you under general anaesthesia to keep costs low.

          I should clarify, that was the uninsured price. I spent a lot less because I wound up with insurance covering it. And yeah total costs were a fair bit higher including the hair removal.

          Edit: I should say my surgeon was in Cleveland
