Thinking about getting a breast lift (mastopexy)? This surgery is becoming increasingly popular with women looking to restore a perkier, more youthful profile. Whether due to aging, weight loss, or post-partum and breastfeeding, there are a range of reasons that are responsible for the growth in numbers of women seeking a breast lift at Manchester Private Hospital.

One of the first questions we hear at Manchester Private Hospital is: “How much does a breast lift cost?” Let’s break it all down and give you all the facts, so you know what to expect.

What’s the Typical Breast Lift Price in the UK?

In the UK, breast lift surgery usually costs between £7,000 and £10,000. At Manchester Private Hospital, our prices start from £7,900.

This price generally includes:

  • A full consultation with a specialist breast surgeon
  • Your surgery (anaesthesia, theatre costs, and your surgeon’s fees)
  • Aftercare, including compression garments and follow-up appointments
  • Pre-surgery checks (scans, tests if needed)

We keep our pricing transparent and upfront—no hidden charges, ever.

What Affects the Cost of a Breast Lift?

Costs can vary from one person to the next depending on several factors:

1. Your Surgeon’s Experience
More experienced cosmetic surgeons can justifiably charge a little more. The more successful surgeries a surgeon has performed, the higher the premium they place on their precision, skill, and years of experience.

2. Where the Clinic Is
Larger cities like London and Manchester often have higher prices than smaller towns. While Manchester Private Hospital may charge more than some clinics in smaller cities, we pride ourselves on offering competitive prices while still giving you top-tier care in a modern, private facility.

3. The Type of Breast Lift
There’s no one-size-fits-all in breast lift surgery. The most affordable option is a standard lift, while a breast lift with implants or more complex surgeries, such as a 360-degree lift or nipple reshaping, will be more costly. You can explore all the options for breast lifts on our Breast Surgery Page.

4. Pre-Surgery Costs
These include consultations, scans, and tests. We are upfront and provide a breakdown in our overall quote, so you are fully informed of the costs from the outset.

5. Aftercare and Recovery
Follow-up visits, compression bras, comprehensive aftercare, and support are all essential for a smooth recovery. These are of course included in our pricing so that you can have the peace of mind that everything you would ordinarily need after your surgery is included.
