About Breast Augmentation or Breast Lift Surgery…


There are many different methods for performing breast augmentation or breast lift surgery; almost as many surgeons as there are to perform these augmentation surgeries. With this in mind, it's important to note that each surgeon may perform breast augmentation or breast lifts in significantly different manners. Although results may vary for each individual, take comfort in the knowledge that over 99.8% of patients would recommend our services to a friend.


Signs of a Quality Practice/ Examples of professionalism:


  • A thorough pre-surgical consultation;
  • A surgeon and staff who are willing to answer all questions and listened to the concerns you may have;
  • Consistent results and safety of breast augmentation or breast lift surgery;
  • Revision rates below 1%;
  • Consistent and efficient performance of the procedure;
  • Consistent surgical recovery periods;
  • All efforts to reduce post-operative nausea are taken.

All of these factors lead to improved patient satisfaction. Nuveen Cosmetic Surgery has an extremely low percentage of revisions, meaning that we place a great deal of importance on evaluating patient goals and decision-making prior to the surgery.


What Kind of Prices Do Surgeons Charge for Breast Lift or Breast Augmentation?

Is difficult to say with a great deal of accuracy what the current prices for breast lift or breast augmentation surgery. As you may be aware, prices for breast lift or breast augmentation surgery can vary by region of the United States, by experience level of the surgeon, and by the surgeon himself/herself. Typically, surgeons with the greatest amount of surgical experience and volume of patients charge less for these procedures. At Nuveen Cosmetic Surgery, we have chosen to make these procedures available for all economic levels. This has allowed our practice to attract patients from throughout the United States and to prevent our need to advertise. Most surgeons who charge double or even triple our fees have far less annual surgical experience, higher revision rates and a need to advertise for new patients as a result. Our practice relies solely on word-of-mouth referral from previously satisfied patients.

We would recommend that you check on prices of surgeons whom you feel comfortable with their level of expertise, locality, bedside manner of the physician and that of the office and surgeons staff. No patient should have surgery with a surgeon they do not like!

Here are our current prices for the following procedures:

Breast augmentation surgery.
    Saline breast implants            $3,500.
    Silicone gel breast implants        $5,000.

Breast implant removal surgery        $2,500.

Breast lift surgery.
    Breast lift alone (no implants)        $5,500.
    Breast lift with saline implants        $5,800.

We have chosen to keep our prices affordable, in order to attract patients from throughout the world. We feel we provide the highest value available in cosmetic surgery in the United States. We have a truly exceptional record for patient safety, consistency of results and satisfaction in an extremely busy, referral-only, surgical practice.

Also, please remember that while we are very comfortable giving our prices online, we encourage you check with other surgeons. Ask questions and do not be afraid to mention that you're doing your research before you choose a surgeon for your breast lift or breast augmentation procedure. Also, be aware of surgeons who offer “bargain-basement” quote prices. Remember, although our prices are affordable by most standards, there will always be others who will undercut prices and cut corners on quality. We will not. We at Nuveen cosmetic surgery pride ourselves on offering affordable prices for incomparable care and results!
