Brachioplasty / Arm Reduction / Arm Lift Costs in Sydney

What is the cost for a brachioplasty (arm reduction or lift) in Sydney?

Like all surgical procedures, an arm lift in Sydney is a complex procedure involving care by multiple different medical professionals, as well as the use of hospital operating facilities and a variety of equipment and supplies. That means there are a few different elements to take into consideration when billing for a Brachioplasty Operation. The total fees for an arm lift in Sydney include:

•    The Surgeon’s Fee (+/- Assistant’s fee)
•    The Anaesthetist’s Fee
•    The Hospital/Facility Fee (includes both the Theatre & Accommodation Fees)
•    Post operative compression garments

The total fees for an arm lift can vary somewhat between patients, depending on factors related to the procedure itself, the patient’s other medical needs, and similar factors. However, we can give an estimate for the total cost. When you visit your Specialist Plastic Surgeon in Sydney for your consultation, you will receive a more detailed and personalised estimate of what the costs will be for your arm lift.

The facility fees vary from place to place and over time, and this can affect your overall costs for the procedure. We are aware that finances are a significant consideration for many patients, and we do our best to keep your costs as low as possible. We are vigilant in watching for options that will save our patients money but we will never compromise results or safety to save money. It’s worth paying the cost for a procedure by a Specialist Plastic Surgeon in an accredited hospital to minimise your risks.

Keep in mind that the above cost is only an estimate. Your costs could be higher, and will depend on whether or not you have private health insurance and which type of insurance.
