Mommy Makeover Cost In Dallas

Mommy makeover procedures consist of multiple surgeries, which are often quite extensive procedures such as breast enhancements and tummy tucks. One of the main questions or concerns patients have is how much the procedure will cost and how they can finance it.

Guide

What Does A Mommy Makeover Consist Of? 

Generally, for a procedure to be deemed a mommy makeover, it will include both breast and abdominal surgery. The specific procedures and techniques can vary greatly but the general focus is on these areas of a woman’s body after pregnancy. Combining these surgeries together has many advantages, including financial benefits as it is less expensive to undergo the procedures at the same time rather than having them performed separately. This is because the cost of the anesthesia, facility fees, etc, will only need to be paid once, and these costs can be fairly significant. 

Typical surgeries that can be part of a mommy makeover procedure include:

How To Prepare For Mommy Makeover Surgery

There are many aspects to prepare before undergoing any type of cosmetic surgery. These aspects vary from ensuring you’re physically healthy to arranging how you will finance your procedure. With regards to preparing physically for the procedure, it is essential to follow all the instructions your plastic surgeon gives you such as stopping smoking and drinking alcohol. However, deciding how best to fund your procedure is a personal decision that requires both research and careful consideration of the various options available.

Since the procedure involves multiple surgeries, the cost of a mommy makeover varies more than other procedures, so it is important to spend time researching options and budgeting.

Any patient considering undergoing a procedure should book a consultation with at least one Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon who has extensive experience in performing body and breast surgeries. Consultations are important for receiving expert advice on what surgeries are most suitable for you and what the estimated cost will be. It is then important to spend time planning your procedure and making sure you are comfortable with all aspects of the procedure from your financing choice to the surgeon. 

Average Cost Of A Mommy Makeover In Dallas

The American Society of Plastic Surgery states that a mommy makeover’s average cost ranges from a minimum of $10,000 to $20,000. This range is so great because the variety of different procedures which can be included is so vast. For example, some patients may undergo a very minimal tummy tuck and breast lift while other patients may have a breast augmentation, full tummy tuck, and liposuction on multiple areas. This vast difference in what surgeries, as well as which techniques patients have, makes it difficult to provide an accurate estimate of the cost of your procedure. You will need to have an assessment with a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon in order to receive comprehensive information on the cost of the surgeries you wish to undergo.

This allows potential patients to gain more specific information regarding the cost of the surgeries they are hoping to undergo as part of their procedure.

Mommy Makeover Recovery: What To Expect

Mommy makeover is tailored to each individual’s needs, so the recovery looks a little different for everyone. Generally, you’ll need help around the house and with childcare for the first few days to a week after surgery as you rest and take time to heal. Most patients feel comfortable going back to a desk job, light chores around the house and driving within 1 to 3 weeks, but be prepared to have someone help with lifting heavy objects and strenuous aspects of childcare for the first 4 to 6 weeks.

When Can I Go Back To Work After A Mommy Makeover?

One of the biggest things to keep in mind when planning and budgeting for a mommy makeover is the amount of time you’ll need to be away from work. While most patients with desk jobs are ready to go back to work within a week or two, patients with more strenuous jobs may need up to 3 weeks off.

When Can I Exercise After A Mommy Makeover?

You’ll need to step away from the weights and treadmill for 4 to 8 weeks after your mommy makeover. Light walks are safe within a few days of your body rejuvenation surgery, but it’s important to stay away from strenuous activity for several weeks, especially after a tummy tuck as your incisions need plenty of time to fully heal.

Is A Mommy Makeover Worth it?

If you are spending a huge sum of money on anything it is important to be as confident as possible about the outcome. Not all cosmetic procedures have a high worth-it rating for various reasons but on the whole, the surgery has very high satisfaction ratings from patients. 

According to RealSelf mommy makeovers have a very high worth-it rating of 95% and most patient’s confidence drastically increases from undergoing the procedure. Therefore, despite the potentially high costs of the procedure, an overwhelming majority of previous patients felt that the procedure was worth it.

Mommy Makeover: Should You Wait Until After Having Children?

The American Society of Plastic Surgery highly recommends waiting until have finished having children before getting a mommy makeover. If you choose to have children after the procedure the results are likely to be significantly impacted and even reversed. Therefore, for the results to last and be worth the expense it is advisable to undergo surgery once you have stopped having children. It is possible to have another surgery following another pregnancy but this is not recommended and revision procedures have a greater risk of complications.

Does Insurance Cover Mommy Makeover?

Since mommy makeover is considered a cosmetic procedure, it is not covered by health insurance. The total cost of the procedure will need to be funded by the patient themselves.

Financing A Mommy Makeover

The cost of undergoing mommy makeover can be high and without a loan or financial support, many patients would be unable to undergo the surgery. This is why most surgeons offer many ways to finance procedures.

Dr. Liland offers multiple financing options to his patients to ensure that his procedures are not only limited to those who can pay upfront or who have insurance. He offers various financial plans from Alphaeon credit, CareCredit, Lending USA, and PatientFi. For more information on these financing options, you can view our Financing Page.
