Plastic surgery financing is usually available regardless of the type of procedure performed. Monthly payments vary based on the cost of the procedure, the length of time needed to repay the loan, and your credit rating.

Many financing alternatives are available, from installment plans arranged through your surgeon's in-house finance program, to credit obtained from outside finance companies that have partnered with your surgeon

Finance companies can provide a list of surgeons who participate in their network. This list does not endorse or reference the qualifications of each surgeon, so you need to carefully research the capabilities of each surgeon independently of the financing information. Many plastic surgery financing programs will only work with certain physicians, although a growing number of finance companies allow you to choose your own surgeon.
