Breast Augmentation Cost in Portland, OR
The cost of breast augmentation varies based on several factors specific to each patient and procedure. At Samuel V. Bartholomew, MD, FACS, we provide transparent pricing and work with you to make surgery accessible through flexible financing options.
What Determines Breast Augmentation Cost?
Several key factors influence the total cost of your breast augmentation:
Implant Type and Quality
The type and quality of breast implants significantly affect cost. Silicone gel implants generally cost more than saline implants but offer a more natural feel and appearance. Premium implants with extended warranties may carry additional costs.
Implant Size and Volume
Larger implants or specialized implant profiles may have different costs. During your consultation, Dr. Bartholomew will discuss implant options and their respective costs based on your goals.
Surgical Technique
Different surgical approaches have varying costs:
- Silicone implants: Standard cost for high-quality modern implants
- Saline implants: Generally less expensive than silicone
- Hybrid breast augmentation: Combining implants with fat transfer adds complexity and cost
- Implant placement (subglandular vs. submuscular): May affect pricing
Anesthesia and Facility Fees
Costs include anesthesia administration and facility charges for the surgical suite. Dr. Bartholomew performs procedures in accredited surgical facilities with experienced anesthesiologists.
