Breast enlargement, also known as breast augmentation or boob job or breast implant, has long been the world’s most popular plastic surgery. Every year almost two million women have breast implants worldwide. And, the number of women undergoing breast enlargement goes up each and every year globally. Although some other plastic surgery procedures such as BBL gain popularity recently, it seems like breast enlargement will continue to keep its “leading” position in the plastic surgery world.

What is breast augmentation?

Breast augmentation is a medical procedure to change the shape, form, and size of the breasts. Breast implant is generally used for two reasons:

• Cosmetic reasons: the aim is to enhance the size, shape, and symmetry of the breasts
• Reconstructive reasons: the aim is to reconstruct the breasts generally after breast cancer surgery

But mostly, breast enlargement surgeries are performed for cosmetic reasons.

How much is breast augmentation?

This is one of the most “googled” questions by women who would like to enhance the size of their breasts. The cost of breast enlargement varies depending on the location, surgeon, the types of implants. Especially, the location or the country where you have your boob job has a huge effect on the cost of the surgery.

Let’s take the United Kingdom as an example, according to the NHS, the cost of a breast implant procedure is between £3,500 and £8,000. And this price usually does not include consultation costs and follow-up care. So, to have an “all-inclusive” boob job, you may need to be willing to pay almost £10k.

But, what would you do if this is completely beyond your reach or simply you don’t want to pay that amount of money for your boob job? Then, what about changing your location? No, I am not joking, it really matters when it comes to the cost of your boob job.

So, what about having a breast implant in Turkey?

Breast augmentation in Turkey offers affordable prices compared to the UK. The cost of a breast enlargement surgery in Turkey starts from as low as £,2175. And unlike the ones in the UK, this price includes consultation fees and follow-up care. You can also have an “all-inclusive” experience if you would like to. Medical travel companies like MCAN Health offer an all-inclusive package option that includes the accommodation, transfers, patient host as well as the surgery, consultation and follow-up care fees.

Here comes the question:

Why is Turkey surgery cheaper?

Actually, the right question would be: Why Turkey offers such affordable breast implant surgery?

Let’s start by highlighting an important point: Turkey’s average cost does not necessarily mean they offer “cheap” boob jobs. Turkey offers high-quality breast augmentation surgery for affordable prices compared to the UK. This is because of a natural result of these reasons below:

1. Lower labour and operational costs: the cost of labour and running costs are way cheaper in Turkey than the UK
2. The support of the Turkish Government: The government of Turkey financially supports medical tourism in Turkey so that medical travel companies can offer affordable treatment options
3. The fact that the Sterling is strong against the Turkish Lira: actually, it is very strong, seven times stronger

Therefore, each year, Turkey attracts a high number of women who want to get their breasts done for affordable prices. This also works to the advantage of Turkish plastic surgeons. As well as being able to work with patients from different backgrounds, they have a great number of patients which inevitably boost their experience and talent.

In short, if you are after a high-quality breast implant surgery and do not want to pay a “fortune” for it, then it is wise to look into Turkey. And if you don’t want to lose any other second, here you can get your free personalised boob job treatment plan by an experienced medical travel company like MCAN Health.
