Unilateral Breast Reduction and Lift - Cost?

Question

What is the Approx. Cost of Reduction of One Breast and a Lift?

William Bruno, MD · Answer

Breast asymmetry is quite common amongst women.  If you are happy with one breast but need a reduction and/or lift on one side, this can be done-as long as you realize you will not have perfect symmetry (nobody does).  This can be done under general anesthesia and can take anywhere from one to two hours.  The cost for this can vary depending on the anesthesia fees, facility fees and length of surgery.  The total fees could range anywhere from 3000-7000.

	Consult with a few board certified plastic surgeons until you feel comfortable with your surgeon and their surgical plan for your specific anatomy.

	Best wishes,

	Dr. Bruno

Thank you for your question.

	Without an examination, it is very difficult to give you even a range because I don't know what we would be doing for you to achieve your goals.

	Each surgeon&rsquo;s fees will be different depending on many factors.  Factors such as the certification of the surgeon, the experience of the surgeon, if the surgery is performed in the office or in a hospital / outpatient surgery center, if performed under local anesthesia or general anesthesia and who is administering the anesthesia.  Don&rsquo;t choose your surgeon ONLY by price, make sure they can achieve your goals.

The cost of a combined breast reduction and lift varies considerably across the
country and even in the same area. South Florida tends to have lower fees then
more expensive areas such as New York or Los Angeles. We charge starting at $4000 + MD
Anesthesia related costs for a combined breast lift and reduction. Since you can get quality work
at lower costs, patients will travel from throughout the state, the country,
and internationally to have surgery in South Florida.

To ensure that you are receiving quality work at the most cost effective
prices, consult with board certified plastic surgeons that own their own
nationally accredited facilities. The quality must be maintained at the highest
level to maintain accreditation. The surgeons also have incentive to hire and
train quality staff (to ensure that surgery is efficient and enjoyable), to
ensure comfortable and private facilities (to encourage referral), and to
eliminate waste (to ensure that these facilities can compete effectively).
