Breast Augmentation Cost in Turkey

Breast augmentation in the US averages $6,675, while in Turkey, it starts at $3,500, and in the UK, it starts at £5,000. Several factors influence the price: the type of surgery, implant choice, surgeon's experience, where it's performed, and anesthesia provider. Costs vary, so consulting your surgeon for an accurate estimate is crucial.

When you meet with a plastic surgeon, they'll outline the expenses for breast surgery, including the consultation fee, surgeon's fee, facility charges, anesthesia costs, and post-op care.

You might also need to budget for medical tests, prescription medication, and a support bra. Ask about fees for revision surgery, especially for correcting complications like implant rupture. Some surgeons waive their fees for revisions, but you may still have to cover other expenses like facility fees or surgical supplies.

The cost of breast augmentation depends on several factors:
 
1. Surgeon's Qualifications and Experience
Choose a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience, ideally over ten years. Look review patient feedback and before-after images. While cheaper options exist, it's wise to prioritize expertise to avoid potential revision surgery expenses.
 
2. The Specifics of Your Procedure
The type of breast augmentation you choose affects the cost:

• Implant prices vary: saline implants are cheaper than silicone, with "gummy bear" silicone being the most expensive.
• Certain implant shapes, like high profile, may cost more.
• Surgeons may charge extra for using a Keller funnel for implant placement, known for smaller scars and reduced risk.
• Areola or nipple surgery could increase costs.
• Many opt for additional procedures during breast augmentation, such as liposuction, tummy tuck, or Brazilian butt lift, often combined as a mommy makeover.

3. Where You Have Your Surgery
The cost of breast augmentation can vary depending on where you have the surgery. Factors like living expenses, demand, and the number of qualified surgeons all play a role in determining the price.

The type of surgical facility also affects costs, with private surgery centers often charging less than hospitals. Ensure the facility is accredited and your surgeon has hospital admitting privileges in case of emergencies.

4. Anesthesia Type and Timing
The type of anesthesia you get for breast augmentation impacts the cost. Most surgeries use general anesthesia or IV sedation, administered by a trained professional. An anesthesiologist may cost more than a nurse anesthetist.

The timing of your surgery also matters. Discounts are common in the summer but research the provider thoroughly before choosing based on price. Ensure they're a board-certified plastic surgeon with good reviews and a portfolio matching your goals.
