How Much Do Breast Implants Cost in the UK?

Medically reviewed: Last reviewed by Mr Reza Nassab, FRCS Plast —
The cost of breast implants is one of the first questions patients ask, and the honest answer is that price varies widely across the UK — typically from around £4,500 to £9,000. That range reflects real differences in the surgeon’s training and experience, the hospital used, the anaesthetist, the type of implant, and whether the quoted price is genuinely all-inclusive.

What is included in the price?
A quote should always be all-inclusive. With Mr Nassab, the price covers the surgeon’s fee, your consultant anaesthetist, hospital and theatre charges, the implants, compression garments where applicable, and every routine post-operative appointment. There are no hidden fees. Be cautious of quotes that exclude the anaesthetist or hospital — they can add thousands.
What affects the cost of breast implants?
Several factors move the price. The implant type matters — premium cohesive implants such as Motiva Preservé carry a higher cost than standard implants, but offer an advanced surface, natural feel and a strong long-term warranty. Complexity matters too: correcting asymmetry, tuberous breasts or revising previous surgery takes longer and costs more. The hospital and whether you stay overnight also affect the total, as does whether you combine implants with an uplift.
Is it cheaper to have breast implants abroad?
Lower prices abroad usually reflect lower overheads, shorter stays and limited aftercare — not better value. If a complication arises after you return home, managing it can be difficult and costly, and NHS services are not there to correct private cosmetic surgery performed overseas. Choose a GMC-registered plastic surgeon operating in an accredited hospital, with proper follow-up, rather than deciding on price alone.
Finance and payment plans
Finance is available for eligible patients through Chrysalis Finance, with a range of repayment terms. Our team will explain the exact monthly cost for your chosen procedure at your consultation.
The bottom line
Breast implants are a long-term investment in your body, and the cheapest quote is rarely the safest. Prioritise the surgeon’s qualifications, the accreditation of the hospital and the quality of the aftercare.

Mr Reza Nassab’s perspective
Patients often ask me to quote a price before I have examined them, and I understand why — but a responsible quote follows an assessment. What I can promise is transparency: my prices are all-inclusive, covering the surgeon, anaesthetist, hospital, implants and every follow-up appointment, with no hidden extras. My strongest advice is not to choose on price. Breast implants are a long-term commitment, and the difference between a good and a poor result — or a safe and an unsafe one — lies in the surgeon’s training and the accredited facility, not the headline figure.
