Breast Implants: Q&A

Multiple Surgery Costs Too High?

I am having breast implant replacement and upper eyelids done by a Santa Monica doctor at the price of $15,000. This is the total price for anesthesia, implants, and overnight stay at private facility with nurse. His partner, who would do a CO2 laser resurfacing of my face and some fat injections at the same time, is charging $9,500. Does that seem awfully high since the anesthesia and O.R. costs are already included in first surgery?

Fees Vary

Each practice has their own fee structure. Those fees would be very high for South Florida but maybe reasonable for a quality surgeon in Santa Monica.

Multiple surgery cost

Hello, The exact nature of your surgery and the environment you choose determine the cost of cosmetic plastic surgery. Getting other opinions for similar work from other local doctors of similar experience providing similar levels of care might help you sort this out.

A 2nd or third opinion is helpful

At our practice, we do cases like this together in one session, which reduces O.R. costs and helps the patient because they only have one period of recovery. It is always a good idea to get a 2nd or 3rd opinion, and always check the credentials and board certification of your doctors before proceeding. Take care.
