Why two Dublin quotes can be thousands apart
A day clinic doing one area under local anaesthetic, often with vaser, starts at €2,200 to €2,500. A private hospital with a general anaesthetic and an overnight bed sits nearer €4,500 for a single area. Neither is wrong; they're different operations, and the right one depends on how much fat there is and where.
After the setting, it's the number of areas. Two or three areas in one session cost less than separate operations, which is why stomach and love handles together (€3,000 to €7,000) is the most common combination.
The consultation
Dublin consultations cost €195 to €200 where they're charged; some clinics offer a free first consultation, sometimes by video. Many take the fee off the price if you go ahead. Bring your questions list.
Insurance, tax and paying
Health insurance plans in Ireland normally exclude cosmetic surgery, and Revenue gives no tax relief on it unless it corrects a health issue. Some clinics offer monthly payment plans through a finance company: check the APR and the total repaid, and never sign on the day of the consultation.
