How Much Does Breast Augmentation Cost in Philadelphia?

Pricing for Different Breast Augmentation Strategies at Our Practice

At DiBello Plastic Surgery, the cost of breast augmentation can vary based on several key components of your surgical plan. While implant type plays a significant role, pricing may also vary based on other strategic decisions, such as incision placement and the overall complexity of your procedure.

Implant Type and Associated Costs

• Saline Breast Implants
  The average cost for breast augmentation with saline implants is approximately $9,000. These implants are composed of a silicone outer shell filled with sterile salt water. One of the advantages of saline implants is that they are typically inserted empty and filled once in place, which may allow for smaller incisions and a more streamlined insertion process.
• Silicone Gel Breast Implants
  The average cost for breast augmentation with silicone gel implants is approximately $11,000. Many patients choose silicone implants for their soft, natural feel and realistic appearance. These implants come pre-filled and may require slightly larger incisions for placement.

Surgical Technique Considerations

Beyond the implant type, the surgical strategy utilized can influence the overall cost and approach. Dr. DiBello tailors each procedure to suit the patient’s goals and anatomy, using one of the following incision options:

• Inframammary Incision (Under the Breast Fold)
  This is Dr. DiBello’s preferred approach. The incision is made in the natural crease beneath the breast, generally offering excellent access and implant control while keeping the scar well-hidden.
• Peri-areolar Incision (Around the Lower Half of the Areola)
  In select cases, Dr. DiBello may recommend a periareolar incision. This strategy includes the placement of a discreet incision along the natural border of the areola.
• Transaxillary Incision (Within the Armpit)
  This technique involves a small incision placed in the armpit, usually resulting in a virtually unnoticeable scar.
Each decision is made with the intent to achieve optimal results with minimal scarring and maximum symmetry.

Factors That Can Influence the Cost of Breast Augmentation in Philadelphia

Unlike many online estimates that reflect only a surgeon’s fee, our breast augmentation pricing is comprehensive. The final cost will include:

• Dr. DiBello’s surgical fee as performed at a local hospital
• The cost of your chosen breast implants

• Anesthesia expenses
• Pre-admission testing and post-operative care
• The addition of other procedures (such as breast lift surgery, liposuction, etc.)

Note that the quoted ranges are based on typical cases, and your specific cost may vary slightly depending on your individualized plan.
