Hello. I am Dr. Shin Dong-jin, the Chief Director who has been responsible for natural and healthy breast augmentation for 30 years.

How much does breast augmentation cost?

The prices vary so widely that it's confusing..

If you have looked into breast augmentation surgery, you will likely relate to this.

In fact, for breast augmentation surgery, the average prices by type are as follows.

✔️ Implants: 400 million ~ 1200 million won

✔️ Standard Fat Grafting: 4 to 6 million won per session

** Average of 2-3 treatment sessions

✔️ Stem cell fat grafting: 600 to 1300 million won

Since the price range varies widely depending on the type and even within the same method, it will be difficult to get a sense of it.

The reason for such a significant difference is Naturalness, safety, and medical staff skillsThis is because the results vary greatly depending on it.

To take implants as an example,

Whether it feels soft to the touch

Whether silicone safety has been certified, etc.

In the case of fat grafting,

What is the average survival rate?

How long the retention is, etc.

What is the engraftment rate? It is the actual engraftment rate of the transplanted fat. Whether the method succeedsIt is a key indicator for determining.

The less noticeable it is and the lower the probability of side effects, the higher the cost becomes.

Because the pricing principles based on these materials and methods are common to all hospitals,

If you want to do it more affordably, find truly skilled medical staff.This is the most realistic method.

As with all fields of plastic surgery, breast augmentation also depends on the doctor's skill.

This is because even when paying the same cost for plastic surgery, some people achieve satisfactory results while others experience side effects such as capsular contracture.

Especially Re-procedures cost at least 200 to 400 million won more than the initial cost It usually gets more expensive.

When I see people who went ahead with the procedure based solely on the immediate cost and are now receiving re-treatment with tears in their eyes...

As a medical professional, I feel just as upset.

With the hope that those of you reading this will make a choice you won't regret,

Criteria for finding a trustworthy hospital and characteristics of each type of breast augmentationI will explain it together with...

I have included only the essential information to save you money and time, so please focus and read for just 3 minutes.

Implants vs. Fat Grafting? Let's sort it out all at once.

I have already provided the prices for each type, so I will now explain the characteristics of each procedure.

First, regarding the implants that people think of first when it comes to breast augmentation, there are largely 1) Motiva 2) Mentor 3) SebinI have this.

I happened to find a column written yesterday on the topic of Mentor breast augmentation comparing the pros and cons of different types, so I would like to share it with you.

In the case of implants, although tactile sensation and safety have been significantly improved due to advancements in medical technology,

Since it involves inserting a material called silicone Side effects such as rippling and capsular contractureThis can happen.

So, unless you want to increase your cup size by 4-5 cups or more, adding body fat fat graftingThese days, they look for it.

However, you should keep in mind that the results of fat grafting vary significantly depending on the type.

The method of simply liposuctioning fat and injecting it into the breasts has an average survival rate of 20-30%, but

If transplanted together with a substance called stem cells Average 70-90%It will go up to that point.

So, as mentioned in the prices above, it is common for the general public to receive it two or three times to achieve their desired goal.

In contrast, the stem cell treatments I provide follow the standard protocol, adhering to the principle of performing the procedure in a single session.

What are the principles of stem cells, and what kind of hospitals provide proper services?I will share the post where I have organized my thoughts,

If you are curious, you might want to read this together.

2 things good places always pay attention to

Having practiced as a breast clinic doctor for 30 years and performed over 1 procedures ranging from implants to fat grafting,

I noticed common characteristics among hospitals with high patient satisfaction.

1) Chest and Body Shape Analysis

2) Limit on the number of surgeries per day

The chest is a part of the body that takes up a large proportion of its size.

That area itself is located at a crossroads of the entire upper body, including the shoulders, back, and waist.

It serves as a standard for calculating the ratio with the pelvis when viewing body lines.

Therefore, when making a surgical diagnosis, you must carefully consider the overall body shape rather than just looking at the breasts themselves.

To this end, we also 3D body scan and breast ultrasound equipmentWe are putting our heart and soul into providing a meticulous diagnosis through this.

I hope you also check the extent of the preliminary diagnosis through hospital reviews and other sources.

Secondly, it is the number of procedures performed per day.

As a human being, a doctor has a limited amount of time and energy available each day.

Since breast surgery is so delicate that even the slightest misalignment can result in unsatisfactory outcomes or potentially cause side effects...

You need to concentrate your whole mind on your fingertips and immerse yourself.

In addition, body type, skeletal structure, fat volume, skin tissue, chest cavity size, etc., vary for each individual patient

You must approach this with a thorough understanding of numerous factors. A result where details are preserved and maintained without issuesIt may come out.

It would be difficult to perform the procedure while adhering to all these guidelines by treating more than 4 or 5 patients a day.

As the chief director and hospital operator, it would be more beneficial for me to see even one more patient, but,

In order to uphold my philosophy of medical practice as a member of the medical team Only two cases a dayWe are only proceeding with this.

(There are many people who trust in our philosophy and are willing to wait 2-3 months.)

Of course, I cannot say that my way is the only correct answer, but

Taking full responsibility for a single patient involves It requires his own time and effort.I would like to point out that.
