Is It Possible to Find Low to No Cost Mommy Makeover Surgery Anywhere?

The Mommy Makeover is a combination of procedures to bring a woman’s body back to the way she looked prior to pregnancy. Most commonly some variation of a #TummyTuck and #BreastSurgery are performed. Additional procedures can include liposuction, umbilical hernia repair.  The most common #breastprocedures include #mastopexy or #breastlift, #breastaugmentation, or #breastreduction.   The costs of a #Mommy Makeover will depend on several factors. Such include the geographic location, the skill and experience of the surgeon, and operating room and anesthesia fees.  Also, such #combined operations are often performed with our Gynecology colleagues. Tubal ligation is a common post pregnancy procedure which is done at the time of many of the surgeries included with Mommy Makeovers. Therefore, if you require a gynecologic operation or study (laparoscopy) and are considering a plastic surgery procedure, discuss these issues with your doctor. Combining these procedures decreases anesthetics, costs, and recovery time.   Most importantly, your procedures should be performed by a #PlasticSurgeon who is board-certified and has a great deal of experience specializing in cosmetic #surgery. You will then greatly improve your chances of getting the result you desire, and, without the need for a revision surgery. It is suggested that you look at before and after photos of the surgeons actual patients, and read patient reviews. Gathering all of this information will help you make a well-informed decision.

The price of Mommy Makeover operation depends on several factors such as the difficulty of your case and your request for your operation area.
In my practice, prices for Mommy Makeover operation reaches from 5550 Euro up to 5950 Euro range, and it also includes the travel package such as accommodation, local transfers, and language assistance. If you want to learn more you can click the link below.

Cosmetic surgery is not covered by insurance as you know.  While I admire your hard work to lose weight after childbearing, I would caution you that you get what you pay for.  Safe and good cosmetic surgery requires years of training and experience as well as the assumption of significant risk and liability on the part of the surgeon.  

Congrats on your weight loss and your 3 kids!  Unfortunately, there is no safe "free" option for what you are requesting.  Occasionally, removal of a large overhanging abdominal pannus will be covered by insurance.  This typically requires documentation of coverage of your external genitalia by the pannus, as well as persistent rashes and infections beneath it.  That said, your best low-cost cosmetic surgery option will likely be at a clinic run by a plastic surgery residency program.  Through these clinics, surgery is performed by plastic surgeons in training, with the supervision of board certified plastic surgery faculty.  Clinic prices are often a fraction of those found in the community as a whole.  Good luck to you.

A mommy makeover is a big plastic surgery operation with substantial costs.  The risks go up when patients undergo larger procedures, and it is more important than ever to go to the best surgeon you can find.  If you have a limited budget, it would be better to decrease the number of procedures you have done during your first operation rather than go to the lowest priced surgeon in town.  There are likely many reasons that the surgeon has low costs, and most of those may result in compromised quality of care. Cutting corners to cut cost will have consequences for many patients, and it may cost you much more in the end.  Good luck and choose wisely.

Unfortunately it is rare to find a free lunch and also rare to find free cosmetic surgery.  There are some academic training programs which have a "residents clinic" in which a trainee performs your surgery with a rather variable amount of supervision.  It is a terrific learning experience for the young doctor but this is not necessarily what I would choose for a family member.  best of luck! 

Congratulations on your substantial weight loss and for taking this
important step toward a healthier, more aesthetic lifestyle. Still, as
with most expenses in life, you get what you pay for in cosmetic
surgery. The difference in this case is that you are dealing with the
appearance of your body and your satisfaction with your results. While
some surgeons offer pro bono services to patients in return for media
exposure, it is more important that the plastic surgeon with which you
move forward is experienced and qualified to perform your mommy
makeover. Some other options you may want to consider are setting up a
payment plan with your surgeon or financing the cost of your surgery.
Many offices work with companies such as CareCredit to make cosmetic
goals more affordable to their patients.

Thanks for your question.It's great that you lost weight.  A MM would likely improve your appearance further.  Cosmetic surgery usually isn't offered on a pro bono basis and it will be difficult for you to find surgery at low or no cost.  Some surgeons may be willing to work with you for promotional opportunities and it is worth trying to find a surgeon that you trust to do your surgery and talk with him or her to see if some mutually beneficial agreement could be possible.Best of luck!Shim Ching, MD

While you can always contact a bunch of plastic surgeons to find out if they would be willing to perform your surgery for free, are you willing to take the risk? Surgery is a serious choice to make because of the related risks, and it's important that you choose the right board certified plastic surgeon who has good experience and performs surgery in an accredited facility.  

Pregnancy and weight gain and loss do wreak havoc on a
woman’s body… ask any mommy out there and you’ll get the same complaints.Unfortunately, although those changes are annoying,
they certainly are not life threatening, so the likelihood of getting someone
to do that for you for free is literally zero! Surgeons are much more likely to
donate their time and talents to charitable institutions that help fight
diseases and deformities. The one hope you might have is to contact a
university with a plastic surgery residency program.Sometimes they have clinics run by the
surgeons in training that offer discounted surgery to get opportunities for
their residents to learn or practice those procedures before they go out into
their own clinics to operate.You would
take the chance of having an inexperienced surgeon do they actual procedure,
but usually they are well supervised by their attending surgeons.Your other option is to wait and save your
pennies to have your surgery done in the future when you can better afford
it.Please do not make the mistake of
going to a doctor who is not trained specifically in plastic surgery because
they offer it at a lower cost.Someone
who took a weekend course in how to do a tummy tuck is not going to be able to
offer you the experience and safety of a board certified plastic surgeon.
