- Where to look for hidden charges
- How to get the best bang for your buck
Just like anything else in this city, when it comes to breast implant surgery Dallas prices can vary. So does this mean that you can shop around and save a few bucks, just as you can with say, a car or clothes? You bet you can but just like shopping around for anything else, it sure does help to know your product, its options and price ranges.
Saline Implants Will Always Be Your Least Costly Option
Theres not a whole lot of price variation in the breast implants themselves. Surprised? Hey! Marketing is marketing and just as with buying a car, its the extras that are going to quickly add up. So plan on paying $5,000 – $6,500 for salines and $6,000 -$8,000 for a pair of silicones. If you find anything cheaper then those minimums, be careful. Also bear in mind that there are other cosmetic dermatological procedures that you may want to consider including.
Make Sure You Get the “Total Cost” In Any Price Quote
So now your going to hit the phone and do a quick check around the city to get some price quotes. When you do, make a point to ask if the total cost that they’re giving you includes the cost for the operating room, the anesthesiologists fees, as well as the plastic surgeons entire charges. Also you’ll want to know where the surgery is going to be performed. Remember, only an accredited hospital or surgery center will do.
Break Out a Pencil and Paper to Do Some Math!
If you choose to go with silicone implants then you have to be aware that the FDA recommends that you have an MRI ($2,000) three years after your surgery to see if they are leaking and then every two years after that. Do the math. Thats almost $100 per month extra just for the MRI fees for “life”. $10,000 the first decade alone!
For Breast Implant Surgery Dallas Prices are About Average
The fact is that when it comes to breast implant surgery, Dallas prices are about average for the entire country, with New York City prices being the highest. There are bargain deals out there on overseas implants but you should think long and hard before you take anyone up on one. Sure they’re great if all goes well! But if one thing goes wrong, your overseas bargain can turn into a third world medical nightmare that can cost you your life. Is it really worth the gamble?
