Price is why most UK patients first look abroad; confusion about what's inside each price is why some choose badly. Here's the comparison done properly.
For genuine revision (capsule work + exchange, not simple swap), UK private hospitals commonly quote £8,000–£15,000+, with complex cases above that — surgeon and anaesthetist fees, hospital, implants, follow-ups, often itemised separately. London sits at the top; regional cities somewhat under.
Like-for-like — a board-certified revision specialist, accredited hospital, consultant anaesthetist, current-generation CE-marked implants, overnight stay, transfers and structured aftercare — typically lands at 50–70% below the UK figure, quoted as one written, all-inclusive number after assessment. Add flights (~£150–£350 return) and a recovery-week hotel, and the total still clears thousands in savings.
Staffing costs, facility overheads and currency — the same reasons a hotel night costs less in Istanbul than in Chelsea. The implants are the same manufacturers; the anaesthesia machines don't know the exchange rate. The variable that actually determines your outcome is the surgeon — which is why verification, not price, deserves your research hours.
Send photos, get the named diagnosis, and compare real numbers for your actual operation — the only comparison worth making.
