The cost of mastectomy in Germany typically ranges from $18,000 to $30,000. Prices vary depending on the hospital, the surgeon’s experience, whether the procedure is simple, skin-sparing, or nipple-sparing, and if immediate reconstruction is included. In the United States, the average cost is $35,000 (per ASPS). Mastectomy in Germany is usually about 31% less expensive than in the U.S.
German hospitals generally include pre-op consultations, surgery, anesthesia, pathology, hospital stay (2–5 days), and follow-up care. In the U.S., the base cost often covers only the surgeon’s fee, with extra charges for anesthesia, hospital stay, and pathology. Always confirm what each clinic’s package includes, especially regarding reconstruction and extended aftercare.
