Board certification from the ABCS or ABPS is the key credential to verify.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Implant Type &amp; Size<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Saline implants are generally the most cost-effective. Silicone gel implants carry a moderate premium; cohesive gel (&#8220;gummy bear&#8221;) implants typically sit at the highest end. Larger implants do not significantly change cost, but textured or form-stable styles may add to the implant line item.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Surgical Facility Type<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accredited outpatient surgical centers generally have lower facility fees than hospital ORs. Most board-certified cosmetic surgeons perform breast augmentation in an accredited ASC.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Geographic Market<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the state table shows, geography alone can account for a $1,000\u2013$3,000 swing in total cost.
