How Much Does Breast Reduction Cost?

If insurance denies coverage of your breast reduction the cost of the breast reduction at our facility is $6,550.00. This includes the physicians fee, anesthesia fee, facility fee and all of your follow up visits after surgery. Keep in mind that most surgery centers in this day and time have payment plans. The additional costs would be a lab work up, prescriptions, and pathology.

The cost of breast reduction surgery varies depending on factors such as whether you are using insurance (and what your benefit plans are, your surgeon's experience, the complexity of the procedure, facility (ambulatory surgery center, in-office, or hospital setting), and additional expenses like anesthesia, lab work, and post-operative care. Additional costs may include prescriptions and a surgical bra. It's recommended to consult with a plastic surgeon to get a personalized estimate.Insurance may cover the cost if the surgery is deemed medically necessary, such as in cases of chronic back pain, neck pain, or other health issues caused by large breasts.

Hello and thank you for your question.
Breast reduction fees will vary. Schedule consultations with a few board certified plastic surgeons to discuss your options. Best wishes!

The breast reduction surgery costs from £5500 , which includes all consultation, surgery , anaesthesia, post op followups, and surgical bra. Most patients can go home the same day but some patients need to stay overnight before going home the following day. In most cases there are drains and they come out in few days.

Thank you for your question. Prices vary depending on surgeon and location but can range anywhere from $9,000 and up. I would advise you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon for a detailed examination to discuss all possible treatment options and what your expectations are. 

Hi. I can only answer this question regarding Breast Reduction in Australia.
Health insurance will support Breast Reduction surgery, as it is considered a medically indicated procedure, given that large breasts (macromastia) can often causes back, shoulder, and neck discomfort, as well as bra strap grooves and skin issues. Health insurance in Australia, however, will not cover the entirety of the surgery costs. There will be out of pocket costs for the surgeon, anaesthetist, as well as hospital. 
To get an accurate outline of breast reduction surgery for you, check with your surgeon and private health insurer.
All the very best.

Thank you.
The surgeon's fee for the procedure varies but is in the vicinity of about $9000. The anaesthetic fee is about $1800. There is a medicare item number and so a rebate if you fulfill the medicare criteria. You should also check with your private health fund (if you are in one) to make sure that you are covered and if there are any other out of pocket costs. If you are not in a private health fund, then there are additional hospital costs.
I hope this helps.

You are correct, it is becoming nearly impossible for insurance companies to cover Breast Reduction.  Average cost of breast reduction in the area that I practice in is $7,500-$8,500.  Our price quotes are inclusive of surgeons fees, anesthesiologist, surgery center and all pre and post operative appointments.  You will want to ask that question specifically to the office that your are consulting in.
Patients who pay for their breast reduction surgery say that it is the best money they've ever spent!

Thank you for your question.  This is asked a lot and it is because pricing on any cosmetic procedure varies greatly by the geographic location, hospital, OR and anesthesia fees, as well as surgeon experience and size of the reduction.  In my practice I charge $6,500 for a breast reduction and that includes my fee, and all hospital, OR, anesthesia, and postop fee's.
As for your symptoms, these are classic symptoms associated with macromastia or large breasts.  You should speak with your insurance company about any requirements they have in order to cover a breast reduction.  Hope that helps!

Breast reduction cost can vary dramatically depending on your region. The average cost is around $8-12,000. This includes the surgeons fee, facility charges and anesthesiologist fees. Insurance companies have strict criteria for coverage and your provider should be able to help navigate those issues with them. Back and neck pain are only one of the criteria they are looking for. Patients see an immediate improvement in their symptoms. Breast reduction patients are some of the happiest plastic surgery patients as they look and feel great after surgery. 

Breast Reductions that are not covered by insurance due to exemptions cost between $5500 and $8000. The price varies depending on time needed for procedure. This priced includes everything except for pathology and labs. We send all our specimens to pathology for evaluation as breast cancer is found in the range from 0.06% to 3.8%. Good luck!
