Understanding the Cost of Breast Augmentation in Perth
Breast augmentation is one of the primary surgical procedures offered at Absolute Cosmetic, designed for individuals looking to increase breast size, refine shape, or correct asymmetry. During consultations, one of the most common questions we receive is:
“How much does breast augmentation cost?”
While there is no single answer—each procedure is tailored to the individual—we understand the importance of budgeting for surgery. To help you in your research, we’ve outlined the key factors that contribute to the overall cost so you can make an informed decision before your consultation.
What Determines the Cost of Breast Augmentation?
The total cost of breast augmentation varies based on several factors. Below are some of the main elements that influence pricing:
1. Type of Breast Implants
The type and brand of implants impact pricing. Options include:
✔ Silicone vs. Saline – Silicone implants generally cost more due to their natural feel and longevity.
✔ Brand and Material – Brands like German Polytech or Motiva ergonomic implants are designed for durability, which can influence cost.
2. Experience and Qualifications
The expertise of your medical practitioner plays a significant role in pricing. More experienced practitioners often charge more due to their skill and reputation. Dr. Glenn Murray, Medical Director at Absolute Cosmetic, has over 25 years of experience and has trained with leading surgeons worldwide.
3. Hospital and Facility Fees
Unlike non-surgical treatments, breast augmentation is performed in an accredited surgical facility. Associated costs include:
✔ Operating room fees
✔ Nursing staff
✔ Medical equipment
4. Anaesthesia Fees
The type of anaesthesia required for the procedure also affects the cost. General anaesthesia, administered by a qualified anaesthetist, is typically included in the total pricing but varies based on procedure length.
5. Post-Surgical Care and Follow-Ups
Aftercare is an essential part of the process and may include:
✔ Post-surgical garments
✔ Medications
✔ Follow-up consultations to monitor healing
