Dear InLove,

Prices for surgery are regional.  They are affected by the skill of the surgeon (more skilled surgeons generally charge higher prices), as well as the implant cost, facility fee, and anesthesia cost.  It costs more to have an MD anesthesiologist, as you are paying for a more highly trained individual.  Facility prices are proportionate to housing prices in the region.  (Expensive neighborhoods have high rents for office / facility space, and the price is passed down.)  And finally the implants have an associated price - surgeons who use lots of implants sometimes get  a break on the price as an incentive to continue using a particular manufacturer.

All that being said, in the Dallas region, you can expect to pay around $5000 for saline implants, and $6000 for silicone.

Regards,

Dr.B

A: Breast Augmentation cost

Costs of Breast Augmentation in Dallas will vary. You can find pricing varying from $3000 to $9000 for saline implants and $4000 to $10,000 for silicone implants. There are so many variables that will determine the costs, for example...

Is your plastic surgeon board-certified? <certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS.org or ABMS.org)>
Secondly, is your procedure being performed in an accredited operating suite by AAAASF?
Third, is your surgery being done by an MD anesthesiologist or a nurse anesthetist? (this is a classic money saving measure)

This should help you narrow your search. Every surgeon has determined what they feel is appropriate for their expertise and time performing this procedure and taking care of you following the procedure.
