What is the cost standard of breast augmentation surgery?
Breast augmentation surgery is a common plastic surgery, which can help women improve the shape and size of the chest and restore self-confidence. Before choosing breast augmentation surgery, it is very important to understand the standard of surgical cost. The following will elaborate on the cost standard of breast augmentation surgery in terms of hospital grade, surgical method, surgeon experience and geographical location.
1. Hospital grade
Hospital grade is one of the important factors that affect the cost of breast augmentation surgery. The equipment and service quality provided by hospitals of different grades will be different. Generally speaking, high-grade hospitals have more advanced equipment and better service, and the safety and effect of surgery will be higher. Therefore, the cost of breast augmentation surgery in high-end hospitals is relatively high. Taking a Grade III Grade A hospital in Beijing as an example, the cost of breast augmentation surgery is about 150000 yuan.
Compared with high-grade hospitals, the cost of medium-sized hospitals will be lower. Generally speaking, the cost of breast augmentation surgery in middle grade hospitals is between 80000 and 120000 yuan. For example, the cost of breast augmentation surgery in a general hospital in Shanghai is about 100000 yuan.
The cost of low-grade hospitals is relatively low, but the equipment and postoperative services may be relatively simple, requiring patients to weigh the pros and cons. Taking a provincial hospital in Guangzhou as an example, the cost of breast augmentation surgery is about 50000 yuan.
2. Operation method
There are many methods of breast augmentation surgery, the common ones are silicone prosthesis breast augmentation and autologous fat breast augmentation. Different surgical methods correspond to different costs. Silicone breast augmentation is one of the most widely used methods of breast augmentation, with high safety and stable effect. The cost of silicone prosthesis varies from 15000 yuan to 35000 yuan depending on the brand, shape and size. However, autologous fat breast augmentation is to transplant autologous fat to breast for breast augmentation, which is more difficult and costs more, generally ranging from 30000 yuan to 60000 yuan.
3. Experience of surgeon
The experience of surgeons is also an important factor affecting the cost of breast augmentation surgery. Experienced and skilled surgeons can often provide better surgical results and postoperative recovery. Therefore, generally speaking, the cost of professional and experienced breast augmentation surgeons is relatively high. Taking a cosmetic and plastic surgery hospital in Shanghai as an example, the cost of breast augmentation surgery conducted by well-known plastic surgery experts is about 150000 yuan. However, the operation cost of general plastic surgeons is between 80000 yuan and 100000 yuan.
4. Geographic location
The cost of breast augmentation surgery varies with different medical resources and price levels in different regions. Generally speaking, the medical expenses in the first tier cities are higher, because the medical technology and service level in these cities are relatively better. Take Guangzhou and Shenyang for example. Because the price level in Shenyang is relatively low, the cost of breast augmentation surgery is cheaper than that in Guangzhou, about 50000 to 80000 yuan, while the cost in Guangzhou is between 80000 to 120000 yuan.
Summary
To sum up, the cost standard of breast augmentation surgery is affected by many factors, such as the level of the hospital, the method of surgery, the experience of the surgeon and the geographical location. High grade hospitals, autologous fat breast augmentation, professional and experienced surgeons and first tier cities often have higher costs. Therefore, when choosing breast augmentation surgery, patients should consider these factors comprehensively according to their own needs and economic conditions, and consult professional doctors to make reasonable decisions.
