Breast Reduction Through Liposuction Price Range?

The short answer is most likely yes, as there is only one anesthesia and one recovery room usage, plus it is more time efficient for the surgeon, anesthesiologist and surgery center.

Thank you for your question. The cost varies depending the surgeon and the location. My recommendation is to be consulted by board certified plastic surgeon, specialized in Body Contour, who knows individualize each patient to give you the better advice.
Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Breast reduction with liposuction as the tool can be done in selected cases.  One has to be careful as most women needing breast reduction often need lifting as well.  Often the amount of time spent in the O.R. determines the price.  This may translate into how many areas of liposuction you are doing, (time for each area to be completed).  Liposuction prices will vary from city to city and surgeon to surgeon.  There are many variables in price.  Often these variables are not in the control of the surgeon, (O.R. fee, anesthesia fee, supplies, etc).  Beware of bargain basement pricing.  Cheap can become expensive quickly.  Best to see a board certified plastic surgeon.  Together you should be able to find a plan that is safe and effective.

Dear JLS
Generally the costs for liposction start in the $6000 range. The cost will depend on the areas that need to be treated- breasts, lateral chest wall and possibly the back fat. The caution is that you may not be able to remove enough fat for a siginificant size reduction and that the resultant shape may not be a lifted and well contoured breast.

Hello

The cost will vary depending between surgeons, as well as on all other factors including the type of procedure chosen, so I recommend to be evaluated first. Find a certified plastic surgeon that can fulfill what you are willing to put up with.

Thank you for the question.The majority of patients who present for breast reduction surgery are not good candidates for  breast reduction by liposuctioning. The rare good candidate requires a  relatively small reduction, has excellent overlying skin elasticity, and does not present with significant breast ptosis (sagging).  As you can imagine, most patients who present for breast reduction surgery do not display these characteristics on physical examination.

 Be careful about your selection of plastic surgeon and technique utilized;  revisionary breast surgery can be costly in many ways.

 Best wishes.

Hi JLS. Breast reduction with liposuction is a great option (especially for younger women with elastic skin) as long as the nipple position is at the inframammary fold. If you have very ptotic (droopy) breasts, which is unlikely at your age, then liposuction will make the breast smaller from a volume perspective, but hanging skin would be the result.
Cost varies based on geographic location and individual surgeon/facility fees but the range in the tri-state area is probably $5000-7000 (including surgeon's fee, facility and anesthesia).
Go ahead and get a consultation from a board-certified plastic surgeon and you'll find out real quick if you're a candidate for liposuction breast reduction. Good luck!

A rare patient can have a reduction in their enlarged breasts with liposuction alone without traditional reduction surgery and the necessary scars. The reason this is rare however is that virtually all people with large breasts need some lifting and this is not accomplished by the liposuction alone. Maybe you could have this done and sometime later in your life after child bearing, have a lift done for the optimal shape and tone.

Hi!
In selected women (specially young, like you), liposuction only breast reduction is a very good option, because there are essentially no scars (one tiny one under each breast) and very little down time (2-3 days).
In our Manhattan practice, the cost (includes surgical fee, operating room charge, and anesthesia fee) is approximately $6000.
