How much does it cost to move the areola placement?

Question

How much does it regularly cost to move the areola placement up, about 6 months post opp from a donut lift and augmentation! Thank you!

John Mesa, MD · Answer

Revision after a breast lift with augmentation with implants might be required in certain cases. Sometimes areola may need to be moved up if it and the nipple are not located at the area of maximum projection of the breast mount.The cost of areola repositioning after a breast lift with implants depends on the plastic surgeon that performs the procedure. Primary plastic surgeons ( the one that did the original surgery) may charge a nominal fee or waive his/her surgeons fees depending on his office policies ( however, the patient very likely will need to pay the operating room and anesthesia services fees). If the plastic surgeon that is doing the revision is other than the patient's primary plastic surgeon, he/she very likely will charge the full price according to this office pricing.

Costs are going to vary from state to state and surgeon to surgeon. Start by speaking with your surgeon and get a quote. Then, search the link below for other board certified plastic surgeons in your area and call the offices for quotes. Best, Dr. Nazarian

Hello dear, thanks for your question and provided information as well.. I have to say that, this always depend on each surgeon and also the country that you choose.... That;s not complicated, but it always depend on how are your incisions located and also the placement of the implant, you should get a consultation with a baord certified plastic surgeon for a revision and check up to get the prices...

It would be best to post some photos but presuming all the scars have soften and matured, the implants stable and the breast and implants in a good place and skin excision is only required then moving from the donut to a vertical scar can be performed under local anaesthetic. Best performed by your original surgeon as the costs are likely to be lower
