How Much is the Cost (Approximately) for a Saline Breast Implant Deflation Procedure?

Question

One of my saline breast implants has ruptured. Rather than replacing my implants, I would like to have the other one deflated also. I have read that this is a procedure that can be done by a Dr inserting a needle & removing the saline. Does anyone know approximately how much a procedure like that costs?

Austin Hayes, MD · Answer

If your surgeon is the fleeting your implants to get ready for a replacement procedure, then typically the deflation is complementary.

Thank you for the question.

	You will find that the procedure you are contemplating will not be expensive. Hopefully you are considering this procedure as a temporary solution and are planning on having the breast implants removed at some point.

	Best wishes.

Concerning deflating an implant after the other side has deflated, this is an option and should not be costly...around $300 or so.  It is not without risks, however.  It can cause infection or interfere with cancer screening.  In my opinion, it is really just a temporary measure and until you can have the implants removed, permanently.  Good luck.

The costs of surgery vary greatly across the country. We charge starting about $2300 + MD Anesthesia Related Costs for breast implant removal.One main advantage that we have is that we own our AAAASF nationally accredited surgery center. This allows us to maintain staff and MD Anesthesiologist relationships, and manage the costs which allows us to provide a safe and comfortable environment. Consult with 3 experienced and expert board certified plastic surgeons to understand your options.

Deflation is a minor procedure and the price should also be minor.  I do agree with Dr. Haeck's assessment that patients are rarely happy with just a deflation and would treat it only as a temporizing maneuver.
