I know someone who is having this done. Depending on the status of them, it could start around a couple thousand...plus dr billing (anastesia, meds) etc. Total Scam if you ask me.

My Daddy is a retired ENT, and he used to charge those without insurance and no hope for any kind about a grand..including all, now he is compromised, but if he could have helped you, he would have.
Expect about $3,000 for the procedure, and more for the room and meds/anthestia, but you might if you have good credit and a down payment, get a deal, it is not fair, I know.
At last....my love has come around..
