When planning a cosmetic procedure, cost is often an important factor for many people. When choosing a cosmetic surgeon, you don’t want to sacrifice experience and skill for an ultra-low price tag. But knowing what goes into the cost of your procedure can help you decide whether or not you’ve been quoted a reasonable price, or if you should consider other options.
The cost of a mommy makeover can vary in other parts of the country, but this guide provides an overview of average costs and what can make that number go up or down.
How Much Does the Average Mommy Makeover Cost?
Mommy makeover costs start on average at around $7,000. But there are a number of factors that can influence this cost, including which specific procedures you’d like to include in yours. If you are considering two or more cosmetic surgeries, opting for a mommy makeover can be a cost-effective way to reach your goals.
Some of the most common procedures to include in a mommy makeover are:
Breast Augmentation
Many women choose to include breast implants in their mommy makeover to achieve a boost of youthful volume and correct a deflated appearance. On its own, breast augmentation can range from around $4,500 to $7,000 — again, depending on your location. So if you are considering breast implants with a breast lift or another cosmetic procedure, you are likely going to save money in the long run by combining them with a mommy makeover, rather than spacing them out over time as separate procedures.
Breast Lift
A breast lift on its own typically costs around $3,000 to $5,000, although many women choose to include breast implants and/or other procedures like a tummy tuck with this procedure. A breast lift can help to reposition your breasts higher on your chest wall, while also removing and tightening any loose skin that may be contributing to a sagging or deflated appearance.
Tummy Tuck
Hitting your weight loss goals before your mommy makeover with a tummy tuck will help you see optimal results.
Abdominoplasty, also called a tummy tuck, is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures to add to a mommy makeover. Pregnancy leaves many women feeling frustrated with loose skin and/or separated abdominal muscle tissue. A tummy tuck can resolve these issues by removing excess skin and repairing diastasis recti.
Tummy tucks also tend to cost in the $3,000 to $7,000 range on their own.
Liposuction
Liposuction and abdominoplasty often go hand in hand, which is why so many women choose to combine lipo with a tummy tuck in their mommy makeover. While a tummy tuck can address excess skin and repair stretched muscle tissue, liposuction can help you get rid of stubborn exercise-resistant fat for optimized body contouring results.
Liposuction can also be performed in virtually any area of your body where you’re having trouble shedding excess pounds. The price of liposuction on its own largely depends on the size of the area(s) you’d like to treat. Generally speaking, lipo starts around $4,300.
