How Much Does a Mommy Makeover Cost?

Mommy Makeovers are highly popular and effective treatments designed exclusively for women whose bodies have undergone changes due to pregnancy, childbirth, and aging. But they are also notoriously difficult to price without a consultation. This blog discusses national and local averages for the procedure, which popular procedures are often included in a Mommy Makeover, and what additional fees patients can expect from their treatment.

Average Cost of a Mommy Makeover

If your body has undergone changes due to pregnancy, childbirth, or the natural aging process, it’s natural to want to look like yourself again. A Mommy Makeover is a combination procedure that treats the areas of a woman’s body most affected by these changes: the breasts and abdomen. Typical procedures performed during a Mommy Makeover surgery include a breast enhancement procedure like a breast lift, a tummy tuck, and, in some cases, liposuction. However, these procedures are customized to each patient and her desired aesthetic changes.

The national average cost of a Mommy Makeover ranges from $15,000 to over $30,000, with most patients paying between $20,000 and $25,000. However, costs vary widely due to the procedure’s customizable nature. While all cosmetic surgery is custom to the patient in some way, Mommy Makeovers are, by definition, often very different from one patient to another, making it difficult to provide concrete pricing without an initial consultation.

Local Average Pricing Mommy Makeover: El Paso, TX

Dr. Marco Gonzalez, known as Dr. G by his patients, understands that women want to know what to expect from Mommy Makeover prices before their consultation. It’s a big commitment, and going in blind is not always ideal or comfortable. That’s why he offers transparent Mommy Makeover pricing for his El Paso patients, with costs ranging between $15,000 and $30,000.

While this average is helpful, specific Mommy Makeover pricing depends on several factors, including the surgeon’s expertise and technique, local averages, the specific combination of procedures, the type of anesthesia used, and other miscellaneous fees.

What Are My Mommy Makeover Options?

The factor that affects the cost of your Mommy Makeover most is the type of procedures you choose to undergo. We’ve already mentioned the two standard procedures: tummy tucks and breast lifts. However, there’s so much more to choose from.

Bear in mind, the more procedures you include in your Mommy Makeover, the greater the cost. Additionally, while Dr. Gonzalez prioritizes combining multiple procedures into a single operating time, this is not always recommended if you have chosen three or more procedures. He will discuss your options during your Mommy Makeover consultation, but he will always err on the side of patient safety and may require multiple procedures. We’ll go over some popular options below.

Breast Lift With or Without Breast Augmentation Surgery

After breastfeeding, significant weight fluctuations, or even the natural aging process, the breasts can become deflated, and the skin tissue begins to sag. This is incredibly common, causing many women to wish for their breasts to look youthful and plump. A breast lift is a popular Mommy Makeover procedure that removes redundant breast skin and lifts the breast mound higher on the chest for a perky result.

If you also want to increase volume lost after breastfeeding or weight loss, Dr. G can include breast implants during your breast lift to achieve a lifted, volumized result.

Full, Extended, or Mini Tummy Tuck

A tummy tuck surgery is an excellent cosmetic procedure for patients whose pregnancy has left their abdominal muscles separated, with excess skin and fat obscuring their natural midsection contour.

Patients have a few options here, depending on their goals and the severity of their concerns: 

• A mini tummy tuck is the least invasive option with the smallest scar, limited to the lower belly.
• A full tummy tuck is the most common option, as it treats the entire abdominal wall and creates a flattened, toned midsection.
• An extended tummy tuck offers the most comprehensive revision, repairing the entire midsection and treating loose skin on the flanks and back.

4D Hi-Def Liposculpting or Liposuction

Liposuction is another common procedure performed during a Mommy Makeover. It targets and instantly smooths stubborn pockets of fat that refuse to budge with diet and exercise. It is also often used to flatten the areas around the midsection during a tummy tuck for a more cohesive result. Dr. G is an expert body-contouring artist, using advanced techniques such as 4D Hi-Def Liposculpture to contour the midsection and reveal your underlying musculature.

Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation and/or Labiaplasty

If you are experiencing unwelcome changes to your vaginal sensation and function, like a loss of flexibility or increased dryness, non-surgical treatments like laser vaginal rejuvenation can help. This minimally invasive treatment uses CO2 laser technology to resurface the inner vaginal canal, increasing blood flow and collagen production to improve tightness, elasticity, and lubrication.

Alternatively, if you are unhappy with your labia minora (inner vaginal lips), labiaplasty is a simple surgical procedure that reduces sagging in the area and creates a more uniform, pleasing appearance to increase your confidence.

How to Determine the Final Cost of Your Mommy Makeover

Mommy makeover procedures are highly customizable, and the right combination depends on your personal goals. Most patients choose two or three procedures that best address their concerns and help them feel more confident in their bodies again. Together, these selected procedures create the surgeon’s fee, which is typically what national cost averages reference when you search online.

In addition, facility fees cover the cost of performing your surgery in either an accredited surgical center or a hospital operating room. Since Mommy Makeovers often take several hours to complete, anesthesia is another important cost factor. General anesthesia is usually required to ensure your comfort and safety throughout the procedure.

Lastly, body contouring procedures like tummy tucks and liposuction require compression garments to help your body maintain its new shape and reduce swelling. The cost of these post-surgery garments is an additional fee you may have to consider.

While Mommy Makeovers can be significant investments, they may be more cost-effective than scheduling each procedure separately. Facility and anesthesia fees apply each time you undergo surgery. For instance, if you undergo a breast lift surgery first and then return six months later for a tummy tuck, you’ll be paying those fees twice. By combining them into one surgical plan, you can often reduce duplicate costs while addressing several areas at once.
