How much would it cost and are there payment plans for gynecomastia surgery?

Thank you for your question.  In short, the price varies from surgeon to surgeon.  You need to be evaluated in person by a board-certified plastic surgeon to determine what would be both best and realistic for you as well as how much it will cost.  Attached to this answer is a reference for you to see what others in the RealSelf community have paid.All the best,Dr. ResultsMiami, FL

Cost factors vary significantly for a number of good reasons: Prices vary greatly because the surgery itself encompasses a wide range of techniques that can be performed to different extents. My recommendation is to first find the most qualified surgeons where you want the surgery performed that are board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery you trust, then compare prices between them. See the below link on suggestions on how to find the most qualified plastic surgeon for your procedure. General Factors that influence the price of plastic surgery include:
1. Location - Will it be performed in a hospital with an overnight stay, an independent out- patient facility or a doctor’s office? Geographical location also has a significant influence. RealSelf has average charges for most areas of the USA. 2. Type of Anesthesia - local, IV sedation or General Anesthesia? Will a board certified anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist, or an RN be used?            3. Experience and training of your surgeon. The best and longest trained is most often a plastic surgeon board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery           4. Length and Complexity of Surgery - how difficult will your surgery be and how long it will take, etc. Will other complementary procedures also be also performed during the same surgery?

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons the average #cost of #gynecomastia surgery can vary widely. #Surgery quotes should include the procedure itself, operating room facilities, anesthesia fees, surgeon’s fees, medical tests, post-surgery garments, prescription medication and other related costs. Most plastic surgery offices offer convenient finance plans that allow patients to pay a low monthly payment. Costs will also vary with geographic location. Estimated costs can be found here on RealSelf.com, PlasticSurgery.org or Surgery.org.It is imperative you select a plastic surgeon who is #board-certified and has a great deal of experience with male breast #reduction. Plastic surgeons who have specialized in breast surgery and cosmetic surgery are suitable to perform your procedure. Aside from checking board-certification, it is suggested that you look at before and after photos of the surgeons actual patients, and read patient reviews. Gathering all of this information will help you make a well-informed decision.

There isn't a set fee for gynecomastia surgery, there are variables involved such as the geographical area you are in, the experience of the surgeon, and the type of surgery you will need. There are also fees for the surgical facility and the anesthesiologist. I suggest you have two or three consultations to find a surgeon you feel comfortable with. Most surgeons do not offer payment plans but there are companies that offer loans for cosmetic surgery such as Care Credit. The surgeon's office that you choose should be able to help you with that. Be sure that you see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who specializes in gynecomastia. Good luck!

To help you better decide, let's break down what a surgeon charges you for. 
The cost for any surgical procedure should be evaluated based on the following criteria. 

Surgeon fee ( this will depend on the experience and consistent results offered by the surgeon) Hospital infrastructure cost( Smaller nursing homes / exclusive Aesthetic centers/ Multi speciality hospital) Any special instrument's used in the procedure like Power assisted/ USG/ LaserWhat additional cost's that are likely to be charged separatelyDuration of procedure (may depend on the size or volume of area treated)Whether additional skin reduction or mastopexy is needed. 
The cost of Gynecomastia ranges from ₹85,000 – ₹2,00,000 ($1,300 – $3,100 Approximately). Prices may vary based on location of surgery and which surgeon is performing the operation. If you’re shopping around, price should factor in, but it shouldn’t be your first priority.
Most insurance provider's don't cover this type of treatment, but it is best to check with your insurance provider to be doubly sure.
Some surgeons / hospitals have may have payment options or plans, but you need to check this with the hospital.

The cost off male breast reduction varies across the country and even in
the same area. Prices in South Florida are less than more expensive
cities such as Toronto, New York, or Los Angeles. We charge starting at

ensure the lowest possible costs and the highest possible quality,
consult with board certified plastic surgeon who owns his own nationally
accredited surgery center. Consult with 3 experienced and expert board certified plastic surgeons to understand your options.

How should I choose a surgeon?
Choose carefully. The decision is yours. Advice to assist in making your selection.Only a board certified plastic surgeon
1. Experience matters. Choosing a surgeon increases the likelihood that they have seen a case similar to yours in the past. Selecting a surgeon whose practice is focused on gynecomastia exclusively is also an indicator of experience.
2. Results matter. The more before-and-after pictures, the better. Pay attention whether the surgeon is confident enough to show multiple angles of the same patient.
3.Only gynecomastia Reviews matter.
4. Expertise matters. Is your surgeon recognized by the profession as an authority in the field? Have they authored books or medical journal articles regarding your surgery?
Be realistic about your expectations. Also, revision surgery tends to be significantly more difficult than initial surgery.So be extremely careful choosing the right Plastic Surgeon at the beginning.
