Deposit amount for a breast augmentation?

Our office collects a $500 deposit. We do allow two weeks from the time you leave the deposit to cancel for a full refund if you change your mind. If you would like to post pone your surgery to a later date your deposit goes with you, you never loose it. I hope this helps. Good Luck!

Hello mtree15,
We collect a non-refundable deposit of $500 at the time of schedule your surgery. Have in mind that every office has their own deposit requirements. Hope this helps! Dr. De La Cruz. 

Every office will be different.  We ask for a $500 deposit to hold a surgery date.  This is typically non-refundable, so that the date is guaranteed.

Most surgeons will require about a $500 deposit to schedule surgery and hold your surgery day and a full payment is usually due 10 days to 2 weeks before procedure.
Sincerely,
Olga Bachilo, MD

While I think every office is different, you should expect to place a deposit for reserving the date.  We usually are booked out for a significant amount of time and having a non refundable deposit to hold the date prevents last minute cancellations.  Our office does a $500 deposit

Our deposit is $200Often it is not the best approach to find the cheapest plastic surgeon. Does the surgeon specialize in this procedure? What are their credentials? How long have they been in practice? What percentage of their practice is cosmetic surgery? How many of these surgeries have they performed? Do they use the latest techniques? What do their results look like? Do they have photos to show of their work? Do they provide follow-up themselves, or will you only see the nurses (or even just an assistant)? Are they available by phone for an emergency or does one of their staff answer after-hour calls? What is the impression you get from their office and staff? Are they professional and informative? Do they know what they are talking about? You need to ask yourself all of these questions.
When comparing quotes from different doctors, check to make sure that the costs you are quoted are for the same thing! Check to see what type of anesthesia and facility you are going to be treated in. If the total price is lower but you are not going to receive proper anesthesia from a board certified anesthesiologist, then are you getting a better deal (or inferior treatment)? If the facility is not a certified outpatient surgery center but is an in-office procedure room, is the difference in safety worth the cost reduction? If the doctor is not a board certified plastic surgeon, is that worth the discount in the fees? I would say the answer to all three of these questions is no!

Assuming you are talking about a board certified plastic surgeon with plenty of experience in breast augmentation, you need to find someone who you trust. This is your body, make sure you are making decisions based on the quality of care, the experience and training of the doctor, and proven results! Cost alone should not be the deciding factor.

The prices can vary from state to state, and from city to city. Our costs, including the board certified plastic surgeon's fees, board certified anesthesiologist's fees, operating room, saline implants, labs, scar gel, vitamins, and follow-up at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and every year after that forever, are around $6250. If you need more follow-up appointments, those are free as well.

Most plastic surgery offices require full payment prior to surgery. This is often done through some credit agency. Sometimes, deposits are due when surgery is booked, but this varies widely between offices.

Thank you for your question.  Although office policies do vary from one plastic surgeon to another, I do ask patients to place a deposit at the time of booking.  Best to seek a board certified plastic surgeon for your procedure and discuss the particular policy of the office.  Good luck.

each office will likely have different policies but we charge a $500 deposit to hold a surgery date for cases that cost less than 10k. Good luck!!

Every office will have different deposit requirements. It’s best to check directly with your surgeon's office to see what their policy is. Best of luck!
