How much does breast lift cost?

A clear breakdown of what breast lift actually costs in 2026 — what's bundled, what isn't, and how regional pricing changes the bill.

What drives the cost of breast lift?

Lift technique

Crescent (mild ptosis): $5,500–$7,500. Donut/Benelli (moderate): $6,500–$9,500. Lollipop/vertical (moderate-severe): $7,500–$11,500. Anchor/Wise pattern (severe): $9,000–$14,000+.

Lift only vs. aug-mastopexy

Adding implants is a different procedure — combined aug-mastopexy adds $3,000–$5,000 plus implants. Higher complexity, higher revision rate than either alone.

Surgeon and metro

Top-tier coastal-metro surgeons charge $14,000–$22,000. National average is $9,500.

Is breast lift covered by insurance?

Cosmetic mastopexy is not covered. Reconstruction-related lifts after mastectomy or symmetry procedures (the contralateral breast) may be covered.
