How Much Does a Mommy Makeover Cost in 2027?

A mommy makeover is a series of surgeries — often including abdominoplasty, breast augmentation, and liposuction — tailored to address common concerns that arise after pregnancy and breastfeeding. It’s normal for the body to undergo changes during this time, and these surgeries address concerns that diet and exercise alone cannot reverse. Because these procedures can be performed during a single operation and allow for one recovery timeline, this approach is more efficient than multiple separate surgeries.

Mommy Makeover Cost Breakdown by Procedure

The national average cost of a mommy makeover is around $34,000-$50,000. In the Nashville/Middle Tennessee area, a more accurate estimate of average cost is in the $15,000- $35,000 range.  However, it’s more helpful to look at individual procedure costs, as what is included in a mommy makeover varies from patient to patient. The final price will also include surgeon, anesthesia, and facility fees, plus the cost of any lab testing and medications.  

Here’s a quick breakdown of the average surgeon’s fees for mommy makeover procedures according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS): 

Every patient’s anatomy is unique, so you and your surgeon will work together to determine the right procedures and techniques to achieve natural-looking results that fit your goals and budget. 

Tummy Tuck

A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, removes excess skin and tightens separated or weakened abdominal muscles. Per the ASPS, the average cost of an abdominoplasty is $8,174, though it varies based on the particular procedure. A full tummy tuck addresses the entire abdomen — above and below the navel — while a mini tummy tuck only corrects the lower abdominal area. 

Breast Work

To address lost volume and sagging or to improve shape, a mommy makeover can include a breast augmentation, a breast lift, or a combination of the two. A breast lift often costs more than augmentation, around $6,816 based on national averages, because the technique is slightly more complex. The cost of an augmentation, which averages $4,875, depends on several factors, including the specific implants chosen and whether they are placed under the muscle. 

Liposuction

Liposuction targets stubborn fat deposits in areas like the abdomen, hips, and thighs. While a tummy tuck is about restoring skin tightness and muscle laxity, liposuction helps contour and reshape targeted body regions. The cost of liposuction depends on how many areas of the body are addressed and the extent of the reshaping. According to the ASPS, the average price of a liposuction procedure is $4,711.

Mommy Makeover Financing

Knowing the average costs is important in making your decision, but when deciding how to finance your mommy makeover, be sure to factor in all the associated fees. Discuss the following with your surgeon:

• Surgeon’s fees: These will vary based on the surgeon’s expertise and the time required for the procedure.
• Anesthesia fees: Anesthesia fees are almost always billed separately and depend heavily on the procedure’s length and complexity.
• Facility fees: Included in the facility fees are the use of the operating room and recovery room, plus initial postoperative dressings.
• Labs, tests, and meds: Any lab work, tests, and medications that are required before and after the procedure will also affect your final costs.

To cover the cost of your surgery, you can pay outright from personal savings or look into healthcare-specific credit card programs, home equity loans, or personal loans. Shopping around for quotes is also a good idea, though it’s important to prioritize surgeons who are board-certified in plastic surgery and have extensive experience with all the procedures you select. 

Frequently Asked Questions

Explore common questions about the cost of a mommy makeover.

Why do mommy makeover prices vary so much?

Prices for all cosmetic procedures depend heavily on the patient’s goals, the surgeon’s experience, and the complexity of the procedure. Because a mommy makeover is a customized combination of surgeries to target unique areas of concern, every surgery will be different. That’s why it’s so important to schedule an in-person consultation to get a clear view of the costs involved, including all fees.

Does insurance cover the cost of a mommy makeover?

In general, insurance does not cover the cost of a mommy makeover. Because these procedures are not medically necessary, they are classified as elective surgeries. However, certain medical conditions may qualify you for full or partial insurance coverage. For example, if overhanging skin around your waistline leads to rashes or infections, insurance may cover the cost of a panniculectomy — similar to a tummy tuck, this procedure removes excess skin under the navel, often after a significant weight loss. 

What other costs should I factor in?

When considering the cost of mommy makeover surgery, you should also factor in the following:

• Missed wages during the recovery period
• Postoperative garments and surgical supplies
• Costs associated with complications
