Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Financing

Offer Patient Payment Plans For Cosmetic Surgery

FigCare Pay connects you with multiple lending partners, giving qualified patients access to flexible monthly payment options for cosmetic and plastic surgery procedures.

How Patient financing works

Get Set Up

Your practice gets access to the tools, application links, and resources needed to start offering patient financing.

Offer Patient Financing

Introduce financing during consultations, treatment planning, estimates, checkout, or follow-up.

Get Paid in Full

Once an approved patient's financing is funded, your practice receives payment and the lender handles repayment.

Cosmetic & Plastic Surgery Practice Financing

Cosmetic and plastic surgery financing gives your patients a comfortable way to pay for elective procedures, so cost is less likely to stand between them and the result they have been considering.

Cosmetic surgery is almost always elective and paid out of pocket, which means the full cost lands on the patient. Someone can be ready for a breast augmentation, a tummy tuck, or a facelift and still hold back when the total is due before the date is booked. When cost is the only thing in the way, many delay the procedure or keep shopping instead of moving forward with you.

A way to pay over time changes that. When patients know they have options, more of them book and complete the procedure they came in for, which supports a fuller schedule and a healthier practice.

With cosmetic and plastic surgery financing, patients can spread the cost into monthly payments while your practice is paid in full, upfront. You keep your fees, the lender handles repayment, and your patient can schedule with confidence.

Get Paid Upfront

Your practice receives the full fee once the loan funds, so you can focus on results instead of chasing balances.

Lender Handles Repayment

The lender takes on billing, reminders, and collections, giving your coordinators back time for patients.

Keep Your Fees

Offer a flexible way to pay without discounting the value of your services.

Key Takeaways

  • Cosmetic and plastic surgery financing lets patients pay for procedures in monthly installments while the practice collects the full fee upfront.
  • Breast augmentation, tummy tuck, liposuction, facelift, and eyelid surgery are among the most-financed procedures, with average surgeon and facility fees from about $2,700 to $9,700.
  • Cosmetic procedures are elective and paid out of pocket, since insurance rarely covers them, so financing often decides whether a patient books.
  • The lender manages approval, billing, and collections, so the practice avoids payment tracking and follow-up.
  • A soft credit check lets patients see their options in minutes and usually does not affect their credit score.

What Is Cosmetic Surgery Financing?

Cosmetic surgery financing lets your patients pay for a procedure over time instead of all at once. A patient applies, reviews the options they qualify for, and moves ahead if approved. Your practice is paid in full when the loan funds, and the patient repays the lender over a term that fits their budget.

FigCare Pay connects cosmetic and plastic surgery practices with a network of lenders that help patients finance surgical procedures, injectables, skin treatments, and medical weight-loss programs. Because these procedures are elective, a clear way to pay is often what turns a consultation into a booked date.

StageWhat Happens
Step 1
Apply
The patient applies through your financing link and sees the monthly payment options they qualify for.
Step 2
Choose an Offer
They compare the offers available to them and choose the term that fits their budget.
Step 3
Book the Procedure
The loan funds, your practice is paid in full, and the patient schedules the procedure.

How Can Your Practice Offer Payment Plans?

When a patient hesitates at the price of a procedure, it is rarely because they doubt your skill. More often, paying the full amount before the date is booked feels out of reach. Discounting cuts into the value of your work, and running your own payment plan asks your coordinators to take on billing and collections. Financing offers a cleaner path: your patient pays over time, and you keep your full fee while the lender manages repayment.

  • Ease the upfront barrier: patients spread the cost into monthly payments instead of one large sum.
  • Protect your pricing: offer another way to pay without discounting your procedures.
  • Convert more consultations: fewer interested patients walk away over cost.
  • Lighten the load on your team: the lender handles billing and follow-up.
  • Support steadier cash flow: payment upfront makes planning easier.
  • Stay focused on outcomes: the financing partner manages the lending side.

For a practice that runs on elective, out-of-pocket revenue, that predictability protects your schedule and your margins through the busy and slow seasons alike.

Which Cosmetic and Plastic Surgery Procedures Can Be Financed?

Financing fits both surgical and non-surgical procedures with a clear price. Body and breast surgery, facial surgery, injectables, skin treatments, and medical weight-loss programs are all common candidates, though eligibility ultimately rests with the lender.

Breast Surgery
$4,000 – $12,000

Augmentation, lift, reduction, and implant revision or removal.

Body Contouring
$3,000 – $20,000

Tummy tuck, liposuction, and the mommy makeover combination.

Facial Surgery
$3,000 – $15,000

Facelift, eyelid surgery, brow lift, and rhinoplasty.

Injectables & Fillers
$300 – $1,500 per session

Botox and other neuromodulators, dermal fillers, and Kybella.

Skin & Laser Treatments
$250 – $3,000

Chemical peels, laser resurfacing, skin tightening, and fat reduction.

Medical Weight Loss & GLP-1s
$200 – $1,400 per month

Medically supervised programs using GLP-1 medications such as tirzepatide and semaglutide.

Injectable and weight-loss treatments such as Botox, dermal fillers, and GLP-1 medications are regulated by the FDA, and demand for them continues to climb as more patients look for non-surgical options they can start right away.

Card ranges are illustrative. Actual approval, amounts, rates, terms, and payments are set by the participating lender.

How Much Does Cosmetic and Plastic Surgery Cost?

The figures below are national average surgeon and facility fees. Anesthesia, operating-room, testing, garment, and prescription costs are additional, so a patient’s total is usually higher, and prices vary by surgeon, region, and the exact combination of procedures. These averages come from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and The Aesthetic Society.

ProcedureAverage FeeTypical Range
Surgical
Breast augmentation$4,617$4,000 – $12,000
Breast lift$5,324$4,500 – $12,000
Breast reduction$6,308$5,000 – $12,000
Tummy tuck$7,465$6,500 – $15,000
Liposuction$2,764$2,500 – $8,000
Facelift$9,679$8,000 – $20,000

Non-Surgical
Botox (per treatment)about $325$200 – $600
Dermal fillers (per syringe)$715$600 – $1,200

Average Fee shows national average surgeon and facility fees from the sources above; anesthesia, facility, and related costs are additional. Typical Range is illustrative of what patients commonly pay in total and varies by provider, region, and combination of procedures.

How Do You Introduce Payment Options to Patients?

Patients appreciate hearing about payment options directly from your practice, so it helps to make monthly payments a normal part of the consultation rather than something you raise only after someone reacts to the quote.

  1. Present the plan: walk the patient through the procedure, recovery, and the full quote.
  2. Mention the option early: let the patient know they can pay monthly if that feels more comfortable.
  3. Share the link: send your financing link by text, email, or at the front desk.
  4. Let them review: the patient applies and sees the options they qualify for.
  5. Book the date: once the loan funds, schedule the procedure.

Where Should You Offer Patient Financing in Your Practice?

The earlier a prospective patient knows that paying over time is an option, the more likely they are to book. Make it visible from the first touchpoint, so financing feels like a normal choice rather than a last resort.

Before the Consultation

  • On your website: put monthly payment options on procedure and pricing pages.
  • On consult request forms: let prospects flag interest in paying monthly.
  • In ads and social: mention that financing is available for elective procedures.

During the Consultation

  • At the quote: present the procedure and price first, then the ways to pay.
  • With the coordinator: have your patient coordinator walk through monthly options.
  • In follow-ups: give interested patients a clear next step if cost is the holdup.

Financing vs. Your Own Payment Plan: What Is the Difference?

There is more than one way to collect payment, and each asks something different of your team. The real difference is how much time and risk each one puts on your front desk.

Payment MethodWhen You Get PaidWho Manages RepaymentAdmin OverheadBest For
FigCare Pay FinancingIn full, once the loan fundsThe lenderLowElective procedures and higher-cost cases

Credit CardAfter processingPatient and card issuerLowPatients using available credit

Your Own Payment PlanOver timeYouHighShort-term arrangements you manage yourself

In short: financing lets your practice collect in full upfront while the lender manages repayment, so your team can spend its energy on patients rather than payment tracking.

Should You Offer Your Own Payment Plan or Use a Lender?

Picture a patient who books an $8,000 mommy makeover and asks to pay you $1,000 a month over eight months. You would be operating, then waiting on the balance, and a late or failed payment becomes your team’s problem to chase.

With financing, the patient borrows for the procedure, the loan funds, and you are paid in full while the lender handles repayment. The lender sets the rate, term, and approval.

Figures are illustrative. Actual approval, amounts, rates, terms, and payments are set by the participating lender.

Request Information

What Happens After a Patient Applies for Financing?

The patient applies directly and may be asked for details about their identity, income, and credit. The lender decides the offer, including the rate, any fees, and the term.

The process varies from one lender to the next, and some let patients preview their options before a full application. Once everything is finalized and the loan funds, your practice is paid according to your agreement.

What Happens With Missed Payments or Cancellations?

If a Patient Misses a Payment

The loan is between the patient and the lender, so missed payments fall under the lender’s policies. Keep clear records of your treatment agreement and the care you have delivered.

If a Patient Reschedules

Spell out in your agreement how you handle date changes and deposits. A change to the surgery date does not automatically change the patient’s loan.

If a Patient Cancels

Set your cancellation and refund terms before the procedure. Any refund or adjustment follows your agreement and the lender’s terms.

What Do Cosmetic Practices Need to Know Before Offering Financing?

Keep your quotes and pricing clear, present financing as one option among several, and send every question about rates and terms to the lender.

Describe procedures accurately, put your quote and financial agreement in writing, and frame financing as a way to pay, never as a promise of a specific aesthetic result. When you market with before-and-after photos and patient testimonials, keep them truthful, representative, and properly disclosed.

Do ThisAvoid This
  • Show the full quote clearly, including what it does and does not include.
  • Present financing as an optional way to pay.
  • Use the disclosures and approved language from the financing provider.
  • Direct rate, fee, and term questions to the lender.
  • Keep clear records of your agreement and the care delivered.
  • Do not promise guaranteed approval.
  • Do not claim specific rates, APR, or fees unless approved by the lender.
  • Do not complete a patient’s application for them.
  • Do not pressure anyone into financing they cannot afford.
  • Do not guarantee a specific aesthetic result.

Is Patient Financing Right for Your Practice?

If you perform surgical procedures, injectables, or body and skin treatments and often hear some version of “I want to do this, but I cannot pay for all of it right now,” financing is likely a strong fit. Giving patients a flexible way to pay keeps cost from ending the consultation and helps more of them book the procedure they came in for.

How Do You Add Patient Financing to Your Practice?

FigCare Pay helps cosmetic and plastic surgery practices build monthly payment options into the consultations they already run. Your patients get a flexible way to pay over time, you keep your fees, and your practice is paid in full once the loan funds, so cost is one less reason a good candidate walks away.

Common questions about cosmetic surgery financing

Can you finance cosmetic and plastic surgery?

Yes, most cosmetic and plastic surgery procedures can be financed, because they are elective and paid out of pocket. Patients apply through the practice’s financing link, and if approved, they pay the procedure off in monthly installments while the practice is paid in full upfront.

The patient applies through the practice’s financing link, reviews the monthly payment offers they qualify for, and proceeds if approved. Once the loan funds, the practice receives the full fee and the lender handles repayment, so the patient can book the procedure.

Patients with less-than-perfect credit may still qualify, because a multi-lender network includes options for a range of credit profiles rather than a single lender’s standards. Approval, rates, and terms are set by the lender based on credit and other factors, and no approval is guaranteed.

Be cautious with “no credit check” offers. Most legitimate plastic surgery financing uses at least a soft credit check to match a patient with an offer, and truly no-credit-check products are uncommon and often cost more. A multi-lender network helps many patients qualify even with imperfect credit, without resorting to predatory terms.

Financing amounts commonly range from a few hundred dollars to $50,000 or more, enough to cover single procedures or a full combination like a mommy makeover. The final approved amount is set by the lender based on the patient’s application.

Repayment terms commonly range from several months to about five years, depending on the lender, the amount financed, and the offer the patient chooses. Longer terms lower the monthly payment but usually increase the total interest paid.

In many cases patients can check their options with a soft credit inquiry that does not affect their credit score. A hard inquiry, which may affect the score, generally happens only if the patient moves forward with a specific offer. The exact process varies by lender.

The practice is typically paid in full once the loan funds and any funding requirements are completed. Exact timing depends on the lender and the financing product, so follow the funding steps your financing provider outlines.
