Factors Affecting Your Breast Augmentation Cost

Breast augmentation price ranges vary from practice to practice depending on numerous factors and your own personal situation. Here are a few of the important variables:

• Your surgeon’s experience and expertise: More experienced board-certified plastic surgeons may charge higher fees than less credentialed surgeons.
• Geographic location of the practice: The cost of the procedure is often higher in large cities where demand for the procedure is greater.
• Your surgical facility: Private surgical suites and outpatient surgery centers often charge less than hospital operating rooms.
• Type of implants used (saline vs. silicone): Silicone breast implants tend to cost more than saline implants. However, many women find the extra expense worth the more natural look and feel of silicone.
• Complexity of the procedure: More complex surgeries require more surgery time, increasing your facility and surgeon’s fees.
• Additional procedures performed simultaneously: Adding a breast lift or tummy tuck to your breast augmentation can make a lot of sense, but it will increase surgical time and overall costs.

As with any plastic surgery procedure, it’s best to make choices based on quality, not price. This applies to both the implant type and the plastic surgeon you select. You can learn more about why your surgeon’s credentials matter in our related blog post.

Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation Cost

Fat transfer breast augmentation usually requires more surgical time and generally costs more than using implants. It may also require a follow-up procedure to achieve the fullness you desire. Some women see this natural breast augmentation as cost-effective, though, because it doesn’t require regular implant monitoring or potential implant replacement down the road.
