Breast Implants Cost in United Arab Emirates

The cost of breast implants in the UAE typically ranges from $5,500 to $20,000 USD, depending on the hospital, city, and type of procedure.

Breast implants are silicone or saline devices placed to enlarge or reshape the breasts, or to reconstruct a breast after surgery. In the UAE, the cost depends on:

• Implant brand and type: silicone gel, saline, round or shaped.
• Placement: above or below the chest muscle.
• Cosmetic or reconstructive purpose: affects insurance considerations.
• Surgical fees and facility: plus follow-up.

The NHS explains that silicone implants are less likely to wrinkle and feel more natural, but can leak into the breast if they rupture. Saline implants are more likely to fold or deflate, but leaked saline is absorbed safely by the body.

Implants are not lifelong, and further surgery may be needed in the future.

Keep a record of your implant brand, size and serial number, and ask the clinic how it records implants. This helps if there is a future safety notice or problem.

Cosmetic breast implants are not covered by basic UAE insurance. Reconstruction after cancer surgery is treated differently, so check with your insurer.

The NHS lists capsular contracture, rupture, rippling, implant rotation and changes in nipple sensation as possible problems. Breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) is a rare cancer of the immune system linked to implants.

See a doctor if you notice swelling, a lump or a change in breast shape.
