The cost of breast reduction in Gurgaon typically ranges from $620 to $6,000 USD (about ₹58,800 to ₹5.69 lakh), depending on the hospital, room category and type of procedure.

A typical estimate for breast reduction in Gurgaon is around $2,000 (about ₹1.90 lakh). What you pay depends mainly on your own case. If one area is treated and you go home the same day, your bill is likely to be closer to $620 (about ₹58,800). It is likely to be nearer $6,000 (about ₹5.69 lakh) if several procedures are combined, the operation takes longer, you stay overnight or you choose a more senior surgeon.

When comparing Gurgaon packages for breast reduction, check whether each quote includes:

• Surgeon and anaesthetist fees
• Operating theatre or procedure room
• Dressings, splints or garments
• GST
• Hospital stay and room category
• Medicines and consumables
• Follow-up visits before you fly home

Breast reduction removes breast tissue, fat and skin to make the breasts smaller and lighter, often to relieve back, neck or shoulder pain.

NHS 111 Wales describes it for very large breasts that cause back, neck or shoulder pain despite a well-fitted bra, rashes under the breasts, grooves from bra straps or trouble exercising.

The scar usually runs around the nipple and may also run downwards or form an anchor shape.

Surgery takes 2 to 3 hours under general anaesthetic, drains usually come out after 1 to 2 days, most people need 2 to 3 weeks off work and heavy lifting is avoided for up to 6 weeks.

NHS 111 Wales warns that breastfeeding may not be possible afterwards, nipple feeling may be reduced and the breasts can grow again during pregnancy.

Flying home: UK aviation guidance has no figure for cosmetic surgery, so book the flight after the surgeon's wound check and walk about regularly on board.

A Gurgaon quote for breast reduction is normally made up of these items:

• Pre-operative tests: blood tests, ECG and anaesthetic review.
• Theatre and anaesthesia: set mostly by operating time.
• Surgeon's fees: which vary with experience.
• GST: may be added, as cosmetic surgery is not exempt healthcare.
• Tissue removed: and the scar pattern.
• Anaesthetic and stay: general, 1 to 2 nights.
• Medical or cosmetic reason: which changes billing.
• Follow-up: visits and support bras.

Cosmetic surgery in Gurgaon is normally paid for privately, so check whether the quote includes GST, the anaesthetist, compression garments and follow-up visits.

Gurgaon has plastic surgery services in both hospitals and day-care clinics, and for anything under general anaesthesia an on-site intensive care unit adds a margin of safety.

The National Accreditation Board for Hospitals & Healthcare Providers (NABH), part of the Quality Council of India and accredited by ISQua, sets India's national hospital standard, and its website lets you confirm whether a Gurgaon hospital's accreditation is current.

Before booking cosmetic surgery in Gurgaon, check that the surgeon is listed on the National Medical Commission's Indian Medical Register and ask for their medical council registration number.

Haryana adopted the national Clinical Establishments (Registration and Regulation) Act, 2010 in 2018, starting with larger private hospitals, so you can ask a Gurgaon hospital for its registration under the Act.
