What is the cost of breast reduction in the Bay Area?

Question

I want a breast reduction but everytime I inquire in the bay area the cost is too much. Why can't our cosmetic surgeons give an affordable price here? Why do I have to fly to Florida or Mexico to get the procedure I want? It's frustrating. I wish someone can help me. I'm ok to pay reasonable cost.

The technique I recommend is The Bellesoma Method. This will reduce and reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. The weight of the breast is transferred to the underlying pectoralis major muscle resulting in pain relief without excessive reduction. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained. The cost is $15,000.

Dear malubondoc,
the cost of surgery depends on a lot of factors (type of surgery, number of treated areas, anesthesia fee, surgeon, facility fee, city, etc.). It would be the best to visit or call plastic surgery offices and ask for a price.

Thank you for your question.
Surgery fees differ all over the country and by physician. Set up consultations with several  board certified plastic surgeons to discuss options and fees. Best wishes!

The prices vary greatly because of the rent of the OR, the medication used, supplies, salaries for the surgical team as well as the overall market prices ranging in the Bay Area or other places on the US. Down here at Tijuana we have top notch hospitals, clinics, as well as more affordable pricing on medication and supplies making it a great option for any procedure you are looking at. All this with great surgical results and as always everything needed to ensure your safety first.

The total cost of surgery is made of several charges including surgeon's fee, anesthesia fee, and facility charge.  These vary by region as well as surgeon.  Many surgeons will offer generalized pricing over the phone if you call to ask for a quote.
