Breast Implant Cost

breast-implant-cost-1The actual breast implant cost is only part of the total fee charged during a breast augmentation operation. The cost of breast enlargement surgery is comprised of the cost of the implants, the surgical fee and any consulting fees charged by the surgeon, the anesthesiologist’s fee and the facility fees. Additional fees will include any post-surgical care, medicines or devices you might need, such as suture removal, pain relievers, antibiotics and specialty bras or bandages.

This report helps patients to understand the real cost of a breast augmentation operation.

Breast Implant Cost Variables

Saline breast implants are less expensive than silicone implants.

Saline implants generally cost between $400 to $650 each, depending on size, style and manufacturer.

Silicone gel and cohesive silicone gel breast implants are more expensive and can cost as much as $500 to $1000 each.

Once again style, size and manufacturer will dictate exact price.

Larger implants are typically more expensive, especially with silicone styles.

Textured and anatomically shaped implants are also slightly more expensive than smooth and round styles.

Breast Implant Cost Versus Surgeon Cost

The cost of a cosmetic surgeon varies greatly, depending on their experience, geographic location, reputation and other factors. The cost could be under $1000 in some areas of the world and skyrocket to over $10,000 to secure the services of the industry’s best doctors.

Many doctors charge an all-inclusive fee for their services, including follow-up care, while others charge a per-service fee.

Make sure you understand the total cost of all charges before agreeing to surgery.

Make sure to never choose your surgeon based on price alone.

Breast Implant Cost Versus Anesthesiologist Cost

The operation might involve the use of another doctor who specializes in anesthesiology. This doctor will also charge a fee and this fee might be substantial, especially in expensive geographic locales.

If the cosmetic surgeon does not employ a separate anesthesiologist, this fee might be included in the surgeon’s typical fee.

Make sure you know how much this charge will be in advance of undergoing your procedure.

 

Breast Prosthesis Cost Versus Facility Fees

The actual facility where the operation occurs might charge a separate fee. This is common in hospitals and practices in which several doctors share the operating rooms and other common areas.

Once again, some surgeons integrate this charge into their normal fee structures, while others charge separately for facility-based fees.

Make sure to clarify if surgical location fees are included, or additional, and understand the total cost of all location fees, prior to the actual procedure.

Calculating Total Breast Implant Price

Understanding how the fee structure of your operation works is necessary to compare the value of competitive procedures.

Some doctors might appear to be rather expensive, but actually integrate many fees into their basic price. Bargain doctors often charge many additional fees which could actually add up to cost more than a seemingly expensive surgeon.

The best advice on finding a good value is to get a complete fee list and compare carefully.

Of course, you should never book a cosmetic surgery procedure on the basis of cost alone. The experience of the surgeon and their reputation for achieving excellent results are far more important criteria than cost. Remember that the best surgeons might charge more, but they are almost always well worth the money.
