Cost of Breast Augmentation Mansfield & DFW
At Mansfield Cosmetic Surgery Center, Dr. Thornton offers a primary breast augmentation surgery price that ranges from approximately $6500 to $7300, depending on the choice of saline or silicone implants. This fee is provided as an all-inclusive package quote that includes surgeon fees, surgery center fees, anesthesia costs, and the cost of implants for implant only breast augmentation procedures. If a breast lift mastopexy or another cosmetic procedure is performed at the same time, a separate surgical quote will be provided.
How much more does it cost to choose silicone implants over saline implants?
Saline breast implants are generally more affordable than silicone gel implants. The cost difference is typically one thousand dollars, largely due to the more complex manufacturing process of silicone implants. Silicone gel implants are often selected for their natural feel and cohesive structure, while saline implants remain a reliable and cost effective option. Dr. Thornton offers both saline and silicone implants and reviews the advantages of each option during the consultation process.
Is breast augmentation more affordable in Mansfield compared to Dallas?
Breast augmentation surgery in Mansfield is often more affordable than pricing quoted at high profile Dallas cosmetic surgery practices. Many Dallas based practices commonly quote $7,500 to $9,500 or more for standard breast augmentation procedures, while pricing at Mansfield Cosmetic Surgery Center generally falls within the $5900 to $6900 range for implant only surgery. This difference is primarily influenced by surgery facility overhead and geographic location rather than differences in surgical technique or safety standards.
What happens to the cost if a breast lift or another procedure is needed?
If a breast lift mastopexy is required in addition to breast augmentation, the overall cost increases due to added surgical complexity, operating room time, and anesthesia time. Pricing also depends on implant type, surgical approach, and whether additional procedures such as liposuction or abdominoplasty are performed. A detailed and individualized surgical quote is provided during the consultation with Dr. Thornton.
How can breast augmentation surgery be paid for?
Mansfield Cosmetic Surgery Center accepts multiple forms of payment, including major credit cards and cash. Financing options are also available through CareCredit, a leading healthcare financing program. These financing options allow qualified patients to spread the cost of breast augmentation surgery into manageable monthly payments. Private health insurance plans do not cover cosmetic breast augmentation surgery, as it is considered an elective cosmetic procedure and not medically necessary. Mansfield Cosmetic Surgery Center staff assists patients in reviewing available financing options and completing the application process.
What are the typical postoperative expectations following breast augmentation?
Primary breast augmentation surgery is typically completed in approximately 90 minutes under general anesthesia provided by board certified anesthesia professionals. After surgery, patients recover at the surgery center for several hours before being safely discharged home with an appropriate adult caregiver. Postoperative instructions are provided along with prescriptions for pain management, antibiotics, and anti nausea medication.
All sutures are placed beneath the skin and dissolve on their own. Showering is permitted within 24 hours following surgery, as incisions are sealed with surgical adhesive and protected with water resistant dressings. Most patients resume light daily activity within several days to one week, while lifting restrictions and limitations on strenuous exercise remain in place for several weeks.
