Millions of women around the world have improved their self-esteem and self-image through breast augmentation surgery. There is no single set of reasons for wanting to undergo the procedure; as long as a woman is confident in her decision to proceed and doing it primarily for herself, her personal reasons are valid.

If you are considering breast augmentation, it is important that you weigh all of the factors influencing your decision, including the benefits and risks of the procedure. While cost is a factor of course, it should not be the most important factor. Too many women who would benefit from breast augmentation have talked themselves out of the procedure because they assume they cannot afford it. Worse yet, some have turned to inexperienced surgeons who advertised cheap prices, and they ended up with unsatisfactory results. In the end, it is far more important - and less expensive - to entrust your body to a skilled, experienced plastic surgeon who can get it right the first time.

Tampa plastic surgeon Jaime Perez believes that once a woman has decided that breast augmentation is right for her, the cost of the procedure should not be a deterrent. This is why he works with women to create treatment plans that fit their budgets. He also offers a range of payment and financing options. After all, everyone deserves to look and feel their best.

Cost of Breast Augmentation

First things first: you should be very wary of any surgeon who advertises costs without first meeting his or her patients. The cost of most procedures varies substantially from patient to patient, with many factors influencing the final cost. At our practice in Tampa, breast augmentation costs are no exception.

The cost of your breast augmentation will depend on which type of implant you select, the physical properties of that implant, and several other factors. The only way to know how much your breast augmentation will cost is to meet with Dr. Perez in a one-on-one, confidential consultation at his Tampa office.

Financing Options

There are a number of ways that you can pay for your breast augmentation. At our office in Tampa, breast augmentation can be paid for in full by cash or check two weeks before your scheduled procedure, if you can and if you prefer. We also accept all major credit cards. This is an option that many patients prefer as it allows them to pay for their procedure over months rather than all at once.

For patients who wish to finance their surgery, we suggest applying for an account through CareCredit. CareCredit is a healthcare financing program offered by the financial division of General Electric. They offer a variety of low- and no-interest payment plans to qualifying applicants. They specialize in financing elective procedures not normally covered by insurance companies, and offer favorable terms to patients who want to undergo breast augmentation or other cosmetic procedures.
