Before undergoing breast augmentation, most women carefully consider the cost and expected results of various implant options.
More advanced options like gummy bear implants can cost between NT$150,000 and $45,000.
And autologous fat transfer for breast augmentation is typically priced between NT$160,000 and NT$180,000.
But exactly how much does each type of breast augmentation surgery cost?
The cost of breast augmentation can vary significantly depending on the type of implant, brand, and surgical procedure.
Generally, you can expect to pay anywhere between NT$150,000 to NT$450,000. Here's a breakdown of the costs for different types of breast implants:
Implant | Motiva | Natrelle | Teardrop Silicone | Round Textured | Smooth Silicone | Autologous Fat Transfer |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Cost | NT$32 - 360,000 | NT$30 - 320,000 | NT$28 - 320,000 | NT$22 - 240,000 | NT$200 - 220,000 | NT$16 - 180,000 |
Material | Nanofibers | Nanofibers | Textured Surface | TexturedSurface | Smooth Surface | Autologous Fat |
Implant Features | Near-smooth surface with nearly 100% fill rate. | Similar to a smooth surface, with a low fill rate and a soft feel. | Flat on top, full on the bottom, with a nearly 100% fill rate. | Textured surface with approximately 90% fill rate. | Smooth surface with approximately 90% fill rate. | Fat is softer but is subject to resorption. |
Suitable Group | Looking for the most advanced, natural-feeling implant material. | Prefers a softer feel and is willing to accept potential rippling at the edges. | Seeking a natural-looking breast shape. | Affordable breast augmentation for B+ cup sizes, post-weight loss or pregnancy. |

Drawback | Costly | Costly, variations in quality | Firmer and more resilient feel. | Thinner skin increases rippling risk, especially in the lower breast area. | Massage needed or will result in differences of softness of the implants on both sides. | The increased fullness may vary depending on the body's absorption rate. |

The cost of breast augmentation can vary significantly depending on several factors, including the type of implant, surgical technique, and the amount of filler used in minimally invasive procedures.
The type of breast implant plays a crucial role in determining the overall cost.
For instance, implants with nanotextured surfaces, such as Motiva and Mentor Memory Gel, tend to be more expensive due to their advanced technology and natural feel.
These implants can cost anywhere between NT$300,000 to NT$360,000.
Gummy Bear Implants, on the other hand, are generally more affordable, ranging from NT$280,000 to NT$300,000.
Additionally, traditional smooth or textured implants often start at around NT$200,000.
The cost of autologous fat grafting for breast augmentation varies depending on the donor site and can range from NT$160,000 to NT$180,000 per session.
However, to achieve the desired breast enlargement, multiple procedures may be required.
Breast augmentation is a complex procedure.
Endoscopic-assisted breast augmentation, for example, is a more precise technique that results in less bleeding and eliminates the need for drainage tubes.
This leads to a softer, more natural-looking outcome but can also increase the overall cost.

We know that breast augmentation procedures have evolved significantly over the years, primarily divided into implant-based surgeries and fat grafting, or minimally invasive fillers like hyaluronic acid.
Each method has its unique characteristics and drawbacks.
Traditionally, implants have been made of saline or silicone gel (smooth, textured, teardrop, and nano-textured, including options like Gummy Bear and Motiva).
Silicone gel implants are filled with either saline or silicone gel to achieve instant breast fullness.
While silicone gel implants offer the quickest way to increase breast size, some women find the texture less natural than real breast tissue.
The shape can also be more rounded and firmer, which may feel different from their natural breasts.
The popularity of fat grafting for breast augmentation stems from the success of facial fat grafting.
For women who are hesitant about silicone implants, fat grafting presents an alternative.
In this procedure, excess fat is harvested from areas like the abdomen or thighs, purified, and then injected into the breasts.
The advantage of fat grafting is that the resulting breast tissue feels more natural.
However, there's a risk of fat absorption, and the amount of fat that can be safely transferred at once is limited.
As a result, achieving a significant increase in cup size in a single procedure is often challenging, especially for women with flatter chests. These are the limitations of fat grafting.

Many people have questions about breast augmentation costs on PTT and Dcard.
Let's get those questions answered by Dr. Huang!
At Miracle, we offer credit card installment plans and other financing options to help you manage your breast augmentation costs.
However, please be aware that installment plans usually come with interest charges.
It's important to consider this when making your financial decision.
Autologous fat breast augmentation is a popular choice for those seeking a natural look, and it is generally more budget-friendly compared to implant-based surgery.
It’s more suitable for women with post-pregnancy breast atrophy (breasts that were once full but have shrunk after breastfeeding).
However, for women with flat chests, the results of silicone gel implants are typically better.
Therefore, even if autologous fat is less expensive, it's crucial to evaluate your individual breast condition and needs to achieve the best possible outcome.
If you need multiple autologous fat procedures, the total cost can be similar to or even higher than implant-based surgery.
Motiva implants represent the pinnacle of breast implant technology.
Their advanced materials and patented design offer superior results and durability. However, this cutting-edge technology comes with a premium price tag.
To fully realize the benefits of Motiva implants, it's essential to select a highly skilled surgeon who specializes in Motiva implant placement.
The precise pocket creation required for Motiva implants demands a surgeon with a deep understanding of breast anatomy and surgical techniques.
If you're considering a revision surgery to correct imperfections in your initial breast augmentation, it's important to understand that the cost will likely be higher.
Revision surgeries often involve more complex procedures, such as removing and replacing implants, adjusting pocket placement, and addressing tissue irregularities.
The exact cost of your revision will depend on the specific corrections needed.
While a simple size increase may be comparable to the initial surgery, but for more extensive revisions, the cost can be 50% to 80% higher.
Yes, the surgical method can impact the cost of breast augmentation.
Endoscopic breast augmentation can be performed using either a fully endoscopic approach or a combination of blunt dissection and endoscopic hemostasis.
These two techniques differ in terms of precision and postoperative outcomes.
Due to the precision of endoscopic surgery, bleeding is minimal, and drainage tubes are often unnecessary.
On the other hand, blunt dissection typically causes more bleeding, requiring the placement of drainage tubes.
The amount of bleeding can affect the softness and shape of the breasts post-operatively, contributing to variations in the overall cost.
Typically, the cost of breast augmentation at a plastic surgery clinic includes pre-operative consultations, medications, supplies, surgical garments, and even post-operative treatments to promote healing.
However, some clinics may advertise lower initial costs, but charge extra for additional services or supplies.
Therefore, it's essential to choose a reputable clinic with transparent pricing to avoid unexpected expenses.
Factors contributing to breast augmentation regret include capsular contracture, which can cause the breasts to feel hard and unnatural, as well as dissatisfaction with the size, shape, or position of the implants.
Choosing an experienced surgeon who can tailor the procedure to your specific needs can help minimize the risk of complications and ensure a more satisfying outcome.
While breast augmentation is generally a safe procedure, potential complications can occur.
These may include asymmetry, capsular contracture, implant rupture, infection, and scarring.
The risk of complications can be reduced by selecting a board-certified plastic surgeon and following all post-operative instructions.
