As you start researching and planning for your procedure, cost is likely at the top of your considerations. You may be wondering, is it even possible to get a high-quality breast augmentation at an affordable price? We’ve put together the following guide to help you answer that question and understand more about breast augmentation cost considerations.
Factors That Affect Breast Augmentation Pricing
You may have noticed that breast augmentation costs vary significantly between cities—and even neighboring practices! According to the most recent data from RealSelf users, breast augmentation costs in the United States range from $3,900 to $12,500, with the average price being $6,675.
Why is there such a discrepancy? It comes down to several factors, including:
Experience and Expertise
Plastic surgeons with specialized skills, a robust before and after gallery of successful patient results, and decades of experience often command higher prices than those earlier in their careers. While price is not always a guarantee of quality, looking at the surgeon’s credentials, their patient reviews, and the results they can achieve can put their costs into context.
Geographical Location
It’s not only who does your procedure that affects cost; it’s also where the surgery is performed. Urban areas and regions with higher living costs typically have higher procedure fees. In addition, areas with a high demand for breast augmentation often have elevated prices.
Facility & Anesthesia Fees
Your breast augmentation quote should also reflect the logistics of your procedure. Factors such as who administers your anesthesia, the type of anesthesia used, and whether the procedure is performed at a hospital or private surgery center will ultimately affect the cost.
Your Personalized Treatment Plan
Breast augmentation is not a one-size-fits-all surgery. While silicone implants cost more than saline implants, you’ll also need to decide on the implant shape, texture, projection, placement, incision locations, and more.
Some patients may also be better candidates for an augmentation mastopexy. Combining a breast lift with implants can offer more extensive breast enhancement, but it is a more expensive procedure. Learn more about combining these procedures in our related blog post.

Choosing a Plastic Surgeon Based on Cost: Is It Worth It?
Although the upfront cost of plastic surgery is a significant investment, choosing a surgeon based on their low price often leads to more expense in the long run. It’s much better to pay more to “get it right” the first time rather than undergoing a revision procedure to address complications or fix unsatisfactory results.
Remember: Breast augmentation is an investment of time and money, but the largest investment you are making is in yourself. Your well-being and happiness are far more important than finding a good deal.
