Cost Of Breast Implants
In New York City

Your final price depends on the implants you choose, whether fat transfer or a lift is added, and the length of your surgery. You receive a written quote after your consultation with Dr. Kiwanuka, and that quote is the price you pay.

Your quote covers the surgeon fee, the anesthesia fee, the facility fee, your implants, your 3D imaging session, your surgical garments, your follow up visits, and your scar care plan. There are no separate charges added afterward for routine care.

Two patients can want the same look and need different operations. An implant alone, an implant with fat transfer, or an implant with a lift each take different amounts of time in the operating room and different materials. Price follows the operation, not a menu.

Your consultation is a full appointment with Dr. Kiwanuka, not a sales visit. Call the office at (212) 440-1700 for current consultation fees and how they are handled if you move forward with surgery.

Operating room time, anesthesia, nursing, sterile supplies, and implants all cost more in Manhattan than in most of the country. A surgeon who works in an accredited facility with a dedicated anesthesia team carries those costs, and they are reflected in the quote.

Yes. Implants vary in price by manufacturer, size, profile, and warranty. Dr. Kiwanuka uses silicone implants and will explain what each option costs before you decide.

Yes. A hybrid augmentation adds liposuction and fat grafting. A lift adds time and additional incisions. Both add to the total, and both are quoted clearly before surgery.

No. Your written quote includes the surgeon, anesthesia, and facility fees together with your implants, garments, imaging, follow up, and scar care. If your plan changes during your consultation, you receive an updated quote.

Yes. Kiwanuka Plastic Surgery offers financing through CareCredit, which allows you to pay for your surgery over time. You can apply before your consultation to know your budget in advance.

Cosmetic breast augmentation is not covered by insurance. Reconstructive procedures and some breast reductions may be covered. Dr. Kiwanuka and her team help patients navigate insurance where coverage applies.

Payment is arranged before your surgery date. The office reviews the schedule with you when your date is booked.

Implants are not lifetime devices. Replacement or revision is priced separately at the time it is needed. Dr. Kiwanuka reviews implant warranties with you before you choose.

A revision costs more than doing it correctly the first time, in money and in scar. The lowest quote often reflects less operating room time, a less experienced anesthesia team, or a less individualized plan. The scar begins in the operating room. Choosing your surgeon is choosing your scar.

Dr. Elizabeth Kiwanuka is the only plastic surgeon in New York City with a PhD in wound healing. Scar quality and healing are planned, not left to chance, which is part of what you are paying for.

A full examination, a discussion of your goals, a 3D imaging session so you can see options on your own anatomy, and a written quote for the plan you agree on.
