If you’re dreaming of enhancing your figure with breast augmentation, it’s helpful to understand why costs vary for this procedure. At South Bay Plastic Surgeons, your procedure is never one-size-fits-all; various factors influence the overall price tag, making each surgery unique.
To help you make an informed decision, we’re breaking down the typical breast augmentation cost. We’ll cover what’s included, why prices vary, and why choosing an experienced plastic surgeon is essential for your safety, experience, and long-lasting results.
Understanding the Cost of Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation pricing at our practice typically ranges between $10,000 and $13,000 based on various factors. These factors include:
Type of Implants
Silicone implants generally cost more than saline implants. However, many patients prefer the natural look and feel of silicone. The size and profile of breast implants may also slightly affect overall pricing. For patients who are looking for saline implants, we use Serene breast implants that have internal scaffolding, allowing for a more natural feel. The determination of implants will be one of the biggest factors in the cost of surgery, and we will discuss these options during your initial consultation.
Surgical Technique
The complexity of the surgical technique is an important factor. For example, submuscular versus subglandular placement of the implant may affect the cost, as would opting for breast augmentation with fat transfer. Combining your breast augmentation with a breast lift or tummy tuck—commonplace with a mommy makeover—also impacts cost. However, addressing multiple areas of the body simultaneously saves time and money in the long term.
Postoperative Fees & Recovery Supplies
You may incur additional costs for post-op medications, lab work, recovery garments such as compression bras, or other supplies that support proper healing and recovery. These fees are disclosed during your personal consultation.
At our Torrance practice, your breast augmentation pricing includes office visits, operating and surgeon’s fees, and anesthesia. Many patients take advantage of our financing options, which are designed to make paying for your dream look more affordable and convenient.

Quality Over Cost: The Importance of Choosing a Reputable Surgeon
While budget is certainly a consideration, it’s crucial to prioritize quality and safety over finding the cheapest option. A lower price may indicate less experience, lower-quality implants, or an unaccredited surgical facility, compromising your safety and results.
Instead, when pursuing breast augmentation, prioritize the following to ensure you’re in the best hands:
- Board certification
- Patient reviews
- Before and after photos
- Board-certified anesthesiologist
- Surgery center accreditation
Our team of highly skilled, board-certified plastic surgeons is committed to ensuring your safety, comfort, and results. We only use board-certified anesthesiologists for all our surgeries, and our surgery center, The Aesthetic Institute, is Joint Commission Accredited.
