Breast Reduction costs $15,000 to $20,000

Darrick E. Antell, MD answers: I have big breasts, can I get them reduced?

How much do they usually charge to reduce your breast? my regular size is a 32D but it's hard to find bras that can fit me and they don't go with my body. I would like to reduce my breast to a 32C to look better.

Fees vary depending on the level of expertise of the surgeon and the most important part of getting a good result from plastic surgery, is the surgeon you choose.

There are several fees pertaining to any operation. For a breast reduction, which typically can take 2 and 1/2 to 3 hours, the approximate fee for anesthesia would be $1,500, the operating room fee would be $1,900 and the surgeon's fee would be in the range of $12,000 to $16,000 depending on the difficulty of your case. These fees include the follow up care and subsequent appointments.

Coneja,

Breast reduction prices will vary based on a number of factors.  These include where you live, the type of reduction you require, and the surgeon.  Also, coverage by health insurance may be available to you depending on the laws and policies in your state.  Your board certified plastic surgeon can provide some insight for your specific characteristics.  Good luck!
