At Mommy Makeover Tijuana, mommy makeovers have grown in popularity to help restore a women’s pre-baby shape and appearance. The personalized combination of cosmetic surgery procedures is usually performed in a single surgery.
“A mommy makeover is the popular term for a combination of cosmetic surgeries performed post-childbirth and designed to restore or improve the areas of a woman’s body often impacted by pregnancy.” Says Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Carlos Illich Navarro.
Below we share what’s included in a mommy makeover procedure, average costs of a mommy makeover, how long it takes to recover, and how long you should expect the results will last.
What is included in a mommy makeover?
A mommy makeover surgery primarily focuses on a tummy tuck and a breast augmentation and/or breast lift, since these areas of the woman’s body are most impacted by pregnancy and childbirth. Many patients may decide to add liposuction or other body contouring procedures, such as Brazilian butt lift, for a more comprehensive result.
Breast Augmentation or Breast lLft
Breast augmentation and breast lift procedures can help fix sagging breasts. Breast implants, which can be silicone or saline, help increase breast size. A breast lift can reduce the appearance of loose skin and improve breast firmness and positioning.
Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck can help remove sagging skin around the abdomen and abdominal muscles. The procedure can also help to hide stretch marks and C-section scars.
Liposuction
Liposuction removes stubborn areas of fat. Liposuction can help reduce the app of cellulite in the stomach, arms, legs, back, and butt.
Brazilian Butt Lift
Brazilian butt lift (BBL) can help improve your butt’s contour, shape and size. The goal of the procedure is to create a rounder, firmer, aesthetically pleasing butt.
Arm Lift
Arm lifts, or brachioplasty, are a procedure that can help reshape the under portion of the upper arm. The procedure can help tighten and smooth loose skin and hanging fat.
Thigh Lift
Thigh lifts can help reduce excess skin and fat on your legs. The result is a smoother, more contoured look.
Body Contouring
Body contouring can help to shape and tighten targeted areas of the body. From skin lifts to abdominal etching, body contouring helps you take the last few final steps toward your ideal body.
Cost of a mommy makeover by procedure
The average cost of a mommy makeover is $13,000. However, the price for a mommy makeover can range between $8,000 to $15,000.
This wide range in price difference is because a mommy makeover is really a combination of several different surgeries and personalized to each patient. It also includes fees and tests, which may impact the total cost of a mommy makeover, such as:
- Surgeon’s fee
- Facility fee
- Anesthesia
- Post-surgery fees
- Cost of saline or silicone breast implants (if applicable)
- Lab tests
- Post-surgery garments
- Prescription medications
