Mini Tummy Tuck Cost Breakdown: What You’re Really Paying For
If you're considering a mini tummy tuck, cost is naturally one of the first things you'll want to understand. How much does it cost? And just as importantly, what exactly are you paying for?
At Victoria House Clinic, we believe in complete transparency. In this blog, we break down the cost of a mini tummy tuck, explain what’s included, and help you understand how to weigh up price versus value.
So, How Much Does a Mini Tummy Tuck Cost?
At our clinic in Sutton Coldfield, a mini tummy tuck typically starts from £5,500. This includes:
○ A consultation with Mr George Filobbos, consultant plastic surgeon, chargeable at £150 but redeemable against your surgery cost.
○ Your surgery under local anaesthetic
○ Use of our private, CQC-registered clinic
○ All pre- and post-operative care
○ 24/7 access to support during your recovery
○ There are no hidden fees — what we quote is what you pay.
The only additional cost you may need to consider is compression garments to be worn post surgery you will be advised on suitable garments to purchase.
What Affects the Price of a Mini Tummy Tuck?
Like any cosmetic procedure, pricing can vary depending on a few key factors:
1. The Surgeon’s Expertise
Our procedures are performed by Mr George Filobbos, a UK-trained consultant plastic surgeon with a senior role within the NHS. You’re not just paying for the procedure, but for years of surgical knowledge, training, guaranteed ethical care and refined technique.
2. Anaesthetic Type
We perform mini tummy tucks under local anaesthetic, which reduces cost compared to general anaesthetic and allows for quicker recovery. You’ll be awake but comfortable throughout.
3. Clinic Setting
Your surgery takes place at our CQC-registered clinic, which meets rigorous standards for safety and care. This ensures the highest level of hygiene, surgical protocol, and aftercare.
4. Aftercare & Support
We pride ourselves on providing outstanding aftercare, including dressing changes, review appointments, and direct contact with our team. Many cheaper providers offer limited follow-up, which can affect results and your recovery experience.
Is It Worth the Investment?
In a word: yes. For clients who are suitable for a mini tummy tuck, the benefits often include:
● A flatter, firmer lower tummy
● Minimal scarring
● Improved confidence in clothing and swimwear
● A quick return to normal activities
● The mini tummy tuck is a one-time investment that can provide results lasting 10+ years, especially if you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle.
Comparing Cost vs. Value
It’s easy to be drawn to the lowest price, but cosmetic surgery isn’t the time to bargain hunt. A lower upfront cost might mean:
❌ Less experienced surgeons
❌ No aftercare
❌ Unregistered facilities
❌ More risk of complications
✅At Victoria House Clinic, you’re paying for safety, experience, personalised care, and long-term results.
