What is the cost of breast augmentation surgery?
With the increasing pursuit of beauty, breast augmentation surgery has gradually become a common cosmetic surgery. So, what is the cost of breast augmentation surgery? The following is a detailed description of the operation type, hospital scale, doctor experience and regional differences.
Type of operation
The cost of breast augmentation surgery will be affected by the type of surgery. At present, the common breast augmentation surgery includes augmentation surgery and implant surgery. The augmentation surgery is to increase the size and shape of the breast by filling the augmentation agent. The commonly used fillings include physiological saline and silica gel. Implant surgery is to place the implant in the muscle or breast tissue below the breast. The commonly used implants are silicone breast prosthesis and physiological saline prosthesis. The cost of different types of surgery will vary. Generally speaking, the cost of implant surgery is relatively high.
In addition, the scope of surgery will also have an impact on the cost. Some women may only need unilateral breast augmentation surgery, while others may need bilateral surgery. In contrast, the cost of bilateral breast augmentation surgery is higher than that of unilateral surgery.
It should be noted that the type and scope of surgery may vary from person to person, so it is best to consult a professional doctor before selecting the type of surgery.
Hospital size
The cost of breast augmentation surgery is also related to the size of the hospital. Generally speaking, large general hospitals and well-known beauty hospitals have higher costs, while small private clinics have lower costs. Large hospitals have advanced equipment and richer clinical experience, so the cost will increase accordingly.
In addition, internationally renowned hospitals may have some additional expenses, such as international medical insurance and travel expenses. Therefore, when selecting hospitals, in addition to cost factors, we also need to consider the reputation and professional level of hospitals.

The experience and popularity of doctors will also affect the cost of breast augmentation surgery. Experienced doctors usually have higher technical level and better surgical effect, so the cost is often relatively high.
In addition, well-known plastic surgeons may increase the cost of surgery because of their fame, and often have to make an appointment in advance. Therefore, when selecting doctors, we should not only consider the cost factor, but also understand the qualifications and reputation of doctors.
Regional differences
The cost of breast augmentation surgery will also be affected by regional differences. Generally speaking, the cost of developed regions may be higher than that of less developed regions. For example, the cost of breast augmentation surgery in international metropolises such as Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong is often high, while the cost may be relatively low in second and third tier cities.
In addition, there are cost differences between international and regional regions. In some developed countries, such as the United States and South Korea, the cost of surgery is relatively high, while in some developing countries, the cost of surgery is relatively low.
