According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, breast lifts or mastopexy has become increasingly popular. In fact, it is becoming more popular than breast implant surgery at a ratio of 2 to 1.
Womenโs breasts are a large part of their feminine identity and as such, many women prefer to maintain the youthful shape, perkiness and position of their breasts.
A breast lift, also known as a mastopexy or โboob liftโ, is a surgical procedure that helps the physical appearance of the breast related to sagginess (ptosis). A typical breast lift will help to:
Mastopexy can also be performed in conjunction with a breast reduction or enlargement surgery.
Because every patient is unique, each personโs breast lift may focus on all or some of these aspects of the surgery. Your surgeon will discuss your concerns and needs with you at the surgical consultation.
Ideally, breasts should have fully developed before this surgery is undertaken.
While both surgeries involve enhancing the appearance of the breasts, they are two different surgeries. Mastopexy involves lifting the breast to reduce the saggy or droopy appearance as outline above. Breast augmentation surgery is used to increase the size of the breasts using implants or oneโs own body fat which is transplanted into the breast.
To decide which procedure is best for you, it is important for you to think about your own personal enhancement goals. Try to reflect on these before you visit the clinic for your surgical consultation. It will help you and your surgeon decide which treatment is best suited to your needs and which procedure will help you achieve your cosmetic goal(s).
The cost of a breast lift or mastopexy will vary from clinic to clinic and region to region. Typically, the price range is $7500-10,000.
At the time of the surgical consultation, it is best to ask your surgeon how to proceed with an estimate on what expenses your private health insurance company may cover. In some cases, your provincial health coverage may cover a portion of the breast lift price. Again, this will be best discussed with your surgeonโs office at the consultation visit.
People often wonder how โboob liftโ prices are determined. There are several factors that are important to consider that contribute to the mastopexy cost.
This is important for the surgeon and the client. The client has a chance to meet and ask questions about the surgeonโs expertise, the procedure, to discuss the ultimate goals of the surgery and to build a rapport and trust with the surgeon.
The surgeon can determine whether the client is a suitable candidate for the procedure or perhaps, there is a better alternative to achieving the clientโs goals. The health history is reviewed and any risks or benefits that are associated with the surgery so the client can make an informed decision.
This is the amount the surgeon will be paid once the procedure has been completed.
This is the amount the anesthesiologist will be paid to administer the anesthetic and monitor the patient during surgery.
This is the cost that the facility or hospital is due for use of the premises, equipment, materials etc.
Prior to surgery, it is common for doctors to ask you to have some bloodwork or other tests done to ensure your well-being.
After surgery, you may be asked to wear certain types of compression garments to help reduce swelling and help you in the recovery phase.
It is common for your doctor to prescribe medications for pain relief as well as special ointments or creams, as they deem necessary.
As you will see below, the breast lift price varies from city to city with large metropolitan centres usually having a higher price range. Typically, larger cities are more expensive and as a result, the costs that contribute to the breast lift price are higher.
Many women choose to combine breast lift and breast augmentation procedures to achieve their final personal enhancement goals. The cost of breast lift and breast augmentation when done at the same time will be slightly lower than if the two surgeries were done separately.
Breast lift price ranges across the major cities across all provinces of Canada are approximately:
Vancouver $5500-10,000
Edmonton $5000-8000
Calgary $8500-10,000
Winnipeg $3500-10,000
Toronto $8000-14,000
Montreal $6000-10,000
In Ontario, breast lift prices range as follows:
