If you do not have health insurance you can “self-fund” your procedure. Should you need a general anaesthetic for your treatment, the total cost will include the cost of the surgery as well as the cost of the hospital and the anaesthetist. We will provide you with details for these on your consultation. Should you need a local anaesthetic for your treatment, the total cost will only include the cost of the surgery. There are however conditions that cannot be treated under a local anaesthetic and will require a general anaesthetic or IV Sedation. Other options such as IV Sedation can also save you significant costs. Your surgeon will discuss this with you.
