Mommy Makeover without being a mommy, is the risk higher? Is there a price difference?

Women can receive a mommy makeover without having had kids.

The price is determined by many different factors including the types of procedures that may be appropriate for you.

I would try to find a board certified plastic surgeon who has performed hundreds of these procedures and who has pictures and reviews you like.

It's very possible to combine the procedures included in a Mommy Makeover into one surgery regardless of you had children or not. 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.  In fact, #combining these procedures may decrease anesthetics, costs, and your recovery time.  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. Approximate #costs can be found here on the Real Self website, Surgery.org, or PlasticSurgery.org.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. All surgical procedures carry some degree of #risk. Always discuss your issues and concerns with the Plastic Surgeon during and following your consultation. Information that you read online may not apply to your personal situation. The suitability of your procedures and any specific risks may be determined during you #consultation. 

Not having children does not factor into results or complications. Basically a mommy make over is a tummy tuck and either a breast augmentaion or a breast lift with implants. if you have a history of weight gain and loss you put the same stress on the skin and underlying muscle.

Hello and thank you for your question. There are many patients who benefit from this procedure who have not had children yet.  It really depends on your individual body. 
Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of
real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate
their results.  The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are
comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified
board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.

Ayme.  Mommy Makeover is simply a term used to describe someone having cosmetic breast surgery with Tummytuck and possibly liposuction. The procedures are done simultaneously, but can also be staged. The term was coined because many women's bodies can be drastically altered after pregnancy, and the above procedures address those changes. While you don't need to be a mommy to have the procedures, if you do plan future pregnancies, then you may want to hold off doing the Tummytuck. Be sure to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!

Thanks for your question. Mommy makeover is a grouping of surgeries that usually help the postpartum patient, but can be used  on anyone if the indications are correct. Many patients with or without children may benefit. The risks are generally the same, and will depend upon the needed surgeries and your starting health. Your PS will have to evaluate you, children or not. Because the surgeries are the same with or without children pricing is usually the same.

A mommy makeover is a breast procedure combined with a tummy tuck.  The price doesn't matter if you have had a baby or not.  It's just a name describing a combination of procedures.

I appreciate your question.





Cost varies by geographic location, surgeon expertise, OR time, anesthesia, length of procedure etc.  I would recommend that you see a board certified plastic surgeon in your area who specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery and who is also a member of The American Society of Plastic Surgery.  You can call their offices in advance and ask for quotes prior to scheduling consultations.





The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.



Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.





Best of luck!

You absolutely can have the procedures performed that are typical in a "Mommy Makeover" if you've never had a baby! The tummy tuck procedure may be a little less complex for you depending on if your abdominal muscles are separated.  If they not, the surgery may take less time.  An examination by your surgeon can determine this.  The risk is no higher for you based on not having children.  Prices will vary from surgeon to surgeon and by region.  The best place to begin is meeting with a board certified plastic surgeon in your area.  At the consultation you can discuss your surgical goals and formulate a plan to help you achieve them.  You can expect a price quotation at that time as well.

Thank you for your question.Price varies depending on where you have your procedure done and with what doctor. MM is just a nick name for any type of combined procedures. i suggest you to contact a PS and go over all your concerns if you are intrested in having any combined surgery.Best of luck
