What is the cost of breast augmentation surgery
Breast augmentation surgery is an operation to change the shape and size of the chest by implanting a prosthesis or autologous tissue. Breast augmentation surgery is a very popular option for women who want to have full breasts. However, the cost of breast augmentation surgery varies from hospital to hospital and from surgery to surgery. The cost of breast augmentation surgery will be introduced in detail from four aspects: operation cost, material cost, postoperative nursing cost and follow-up cost.
Operation expenses
First of all, the cost of surgery is the most important part of breast augmentation surgery. The operating expenses mainly include the consumption of surgical instruments, the operating expenses of anesthetists and surgeons, and the operating expenses of hospitals. The operating expenses of different hospitals and different specialists will also vary. Generally speaking, the operation costs of well-known hospitals and experienced doctors will be relatively high. The cost of breast augmentation surgery is generally between RMB130000 and RMB10000.
In addition, some special instruments and equipment may be used during the operation, such as sutures, infusion sets and disinfection supplies used in the operation. The cost of these materials also needs to be included.
Material cost
Prosthesis used in breast augmentation surgery are also part of the cost. The common prostheses are saline prosthesis and silicone prosthesis. The price of these two prostheses will also be different. Saline implants are generally cheaper, but silicone implants are more common and popular. According to personal needs and doctors' suggestions, the selection of appropriate prosthesis will also have an impact on the cost.
In addition, the anesthetic and disinfection materials used in the operation will also increase the cost of the operation. The cost of these materials will be calculated according to the actual usage.
Postoperative care costs
Postoperative nursing is an important part of breast augmentation surgery. Postoperative nursing costs include percutaneous suture, dressing replacement and services provided by star nurses. These costs also need to be budgeted throughout the operation.
The nursing after breast augmentation surgery should not only pay attention to the wound nursing, but also carry out certain pain management, antibiotic treatment and regular return visits. Hospitals usually provide a certain amount of postoperative care services, and the cost will vary according to the quality of service and time.
Follow up expenses
Follow up costs are part of the costs after breast augmentation surgery. After surgery, the hospital usually arranges follow-up for patients to ensure good surgical results and solve the problems that patients may have. Follow up costs include the costs of examinations that may be required during the follow-up process and the consultation costs of doctors.
Each hospital charges different follow-up fees. For some high-end medical institutions, follow-up costs may be higher, but this also means that patients can get more comprehensive follow-up services and doctors' guidance.
To sum up, the cost of breast augmentation surgery mainly includes the cost of surgery, materials, postoperative care and follow-up. The specific cost varies according to the hospital, doctor and operation method. Therefore, before breast augmentation surgery, patients should carefully understand the relevant costs, and choose their own hospitals and doctors for surgery to obtain the most satisfactory results.
