Breast Reduction Cost

The cost of breast reduction varies greatly depending on a multitude of factors. One major factor is the surgeon chosen. This decision should be made very carefully however, as a highly skilled surgeon will most likely perform better resulting in less scarring but will cost more. Each individual has a unique situation, leaving the more complicated or longer procedures with larger surgeon costs. Another part of the cost is the price of anesthesia, ranging from $1,000 to $1,500. The final fee associated with a breast reduction is the hospital fee. These vary more greatly, from $500 to $2,000. If the procedure is being done for medical reasons rather than cosmetic, insurance may cover some costs.
