The cost of breast implant removal surgery is on average around £3700. You may be concerned about the price of breast implant removal surgery. Cosmetic surgeries can be expensive and forking out thousands of pounds is a big decision. However, there are a number of ways to find a suitable deal for yourself.

Searching around and contacting as many clinics as possible can help you find the best deal. Some clinics will offer the surgery at a much cheaper price than others. This could require that you have to travel a bit further away from home for the procedure. It is important to consider all of your options when making a big decision like this. Rushing into the first clinic that you come across with your wallet open can leave you with results that you aren’t happy with and a price that you didn’t need to pay. Because of this, it is important that you not only research different prices that clinics offer but also the quality of the practice and the surgeon. You may find that some clinics offer cheaper breast implant removals but the results aren’t what you are looking for. Take your time when choosing which clinic to go with. If a clinic offers a lower price, it is helpful to question this and find out why they can afford to do this. Your safety is most important and having a cheap but badly done surgery or having unqualified surgeons perform the surgery can leave you with problems in the future that can require further funding to fix. It is, therefore, better to invest in professional treatment. If a clinic is charging higher prices, find out what makes their service so special. In your consultation, the surgeon will guide you through the price options and the process to give you an understanding of the costs. At this point, it is important to ask any questions or queries that you may have.


Paying in Instalments

During your consultation the surgeon will discuss different payment options with you. They will cater to your financial situation as best they can so be honest with them as they are trying to help you. If paying for the entire procedure up front isn’t an option for you, some clinics allow you to pay an initial deposit and then pay in monthly instalments to cover the entire cost of the procedure. This can not only make the procedure more affordable, but it is much less daunting than spending thousands of your savings all at once. Clinics are often flexible with the amount you’d like to pay in each instalment, how frequent these instalments are and the price of the deposit. If the initial plan that you are offered isn’t suitable for you, be sure to let your surgeon know and they will adjust it as best they can.

Can I get a Loan for Breast Implant Removal?

If you are in a position where breast implant removal is too expensive or you don’t wish to spend all of the money at once. You can apply for a loan to fund the procedure. This is dependent on the bank you are with and your financial situation but it is definitely an option worth looking into. In this case, the bank will lend you the money to pay for your procedure and you will have to pay the bank back in monthly instalments with interest. This means that you will not need to fork out thousands of pounds immediately and can pay for the procedures over a few months or years. If you want to look into this, be sure to contact your bank to book an appointment. They will discuss this with you and inform you as to whether they can provide this service.

If your bank will not offer you a loan for your breast implant removal surgery, there are companies that specialise in financing cosmetic surgeries. These often come at a higher interest rate than what banks offer, but are also worth exploring. For many, this is a last resort due to its cost but you are more likely to be eligible for a loan if you use companies.

Breast Implant Removal through the NHS

You may also be able to have your breasts implants removed through the NHS. This is not common and you are unlikely to be eligible for this if your reasons for having the implants removed are strictly for cosmetic reasons. However, if they pose a medical risk, you may be able to have your implants removed under this service.

The NHS are more likely to offer to remove your breast implants if they had initially fitted the implants and their removal is a medical need. There are a number of reasons that your implants may need to be removed. This can be because your implants have ruptured, you have capsular contracture (hardening of the breasts caused by implants) and other conditions that may be causing you pain or discomfort. If your implants were fitted privately, there is still a possibility that you can have the implants removed through the NHS so long as it is strictly for medical reasons. If this is the case for you, it may be an option worth exploring. However, the NHS will not offer replacement unless they initially fitted the implants. It is also important to note that the NHS has long waiting lists and breast implant removal isn’t high up on the priority list. If you’d rather have a quick and efficient service, it is best to explore breast implant removal surgery privately.

Saving up for Breast Implant Removal

If you are not currently in a position to finance your breast implant removal surgery, it may be an idea to wait a while, set some of your income aside each month and have the procedure in the future. This may be the best option for you if your reasons for having breast implant removal surgery are strictly for aesthetics and you haven’t experienced any complications with your implants. Breast implant removal surgery can be expensive and not only will saving for the procedure feel more affordable, but it will also give you time to think about whether the procedure is the best option for you. Rushing into these decisions can leave you with results that you didn’t want or expect. If, however, you have developed any side effects from having breast implants it may be worth booking an appointment with the doctor to see if you are eligible to have your breast implants removed through the NHS.
