What Is Included in the Pricing for Breast Augmentation?

When sitting down for a breast augmentation consultation, it’s important to understand all aspects of your surgery. You’ll want to bring a comprehensive checklist of questions to ask your surgeon, including your options for implants, the risks and complications associated with surgery, preparation needs and recovery period expectations. It’s also imperative to understand what is included in the pricing for the procedure. Costs can vary widely depending on the surgeon’s experience, type of implants used, type of anesthesia, facility fees and other related expenses.

Breast augmentation is the most popular plastic surgery procedure, with more than 300,000 surgeries performed in the United States each year. As breast augmentation is an elective surgery, the cost is always a consideration but shouldn’t be the biggest factor in your final decision. When choosing a plastic surgeon, you will want to consider the surgeon’s experience as well as your comfort with him or her. Be sure to ask about their skills and experience, how many times they’ve done this procedure. You’ll also want to know if they have board certification in plastic surgery and surgical center accreditation.

Board certified by both the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery, Dr. Smith has privileges at 15 New York and New Jersey hospitals. Dr. Smith offers an all-inclusive cost for breast augmentation, which includes implants, anesthesia fees, surgeon fees and hospital facility fees. The surgical and anesthesia fees are what the surgeon and anesthesiologist take home, while the facility fees include the cost of nursing care, medical materials and any drugs used during surgery as well as other costs of running a surgical facility.

If cost is an issue, you will want to ask your plastic surgeon about patient financing plans. Dr. Smith offers a variety of flexible, affordable financing options with a simple application process, so you can schedule your procedure today and pay for it over time.
