Curious as to how much breast augmentation, or a “breast aug” costs? Have you noticed that when you google this question, it’s hard to find a clear cut number of how much it costs? Well, you’ve find the right blog post and website to answer your questions about breast augmentation cost and any other procedures you’re considering.
The cost of breast augmentation is affected by several factors. The surgeon’s fee, the OR/anesthesia fees, postop garments (like a bra), cosmetic insurance and of course the cost of the implants (saline or silicone). Experience of the surgeon may affect the cost but that’s harder to quantify. Here’s a breakdown of these costs for my practice:
Surgeon’s Fee: $4400
OR/Anesthesia Fees: $1050
Implants: $1650 (silicone), $800 (saline)
Garments: $150
Cosmetic Insurance: $300
Total: $7580 for silicone, $6730 for saline
Prices vary across the country as you can see in this 2013 Pricing Report. Breast augmentation tends to be most expensive in the northeast and least expensive in the south. If you would like more pricing information for a plastic surgeon near you, check out www.buildmybod.com/pricing
