What is the average cost of a Mommy Makeover in the San Antonio area?

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. Approximate #costs can be found here on the Real Self website, Surgery.org, or PlasticSurgery.org. Also, the costs are contingent on the specific #procedures being combined in the operation. Such will be discussed in greater length during your one-on-one consultation. 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.

Thank you for your question. It is worth having multiple consultations to evaluate cost variation among surgeons in your area. The cost for a mommy makeover commonly ranges from $12,000 - $18,000. Choose a board certified plastic surgeon based upon experience and the results he or she can deliver, not just on cost alone. Hope this helps and good luck with your procedure.

Cost factors vary significantly for a number of good reasons: Prices vary greatly because the surgery itself encompasses a wide range of techniques that can be performed to different extents. My recommendation is to first find the most qualified surgeons where you want the surgery performed that are board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery you trust, then compare prices between them. See the below link on suggestions on how to find the most qualified plastic surgeon for your procedure. General Factors that influence the price of plastic surgery include:





1. Location - Will it be performed in a hospital with an overnight stay, an independent out- patient facility or a doctor’s office? Geographical location also has a significant influence. RealSelf has average charges for most areas of the USA.





2. Type of Anesthesia - local, IV sedation or General Anesthesia? Will a board certified anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist, or an RN be used?

    

      3. Experience and training of your surgeon. The best and longest trained is most often a plastic surgeon board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery

   

      4. Length and Complexity of Surgery - how difficult will your surgery be and how long it will take, etc. Will other complementary procedures also be also performed during the same surgery?

I appreciate your question.





Cost varies by geographic location, surgeon expertise, OR time, anesthesia, length of procedure etc.  I would recommend that you go to The American Society of Plastic Surgery website and look for a list of board certified plastic surgeons in your area.  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!

The cost of a Mommy Makeover varies by surgeon and area.  In addition, the procedures selected will impact pricing.  For example having a lift and augmentation versus just a lift, or having liposuction to multiple areas versus one.  I encourage you to meet with a board certified plastic surgeon near you for a consultation.  Together you can discuss your goals and develop a surgical plan.  A quote will be provided based on that plan.

Hello
The cost will vary depending between surgeons, as well as on other factors including the type of procedure chosen, so I recommend to be evaluated first. Find a certified plastic surgeon that can fulfill what you wish to accomplish.  Good luck.

Thank you for question about costs  with
Mommy Makeover.  Since Mommy Makeover can be a combination of any number
of procedures, such as breast surgery, liposuction, and various body contouring
procedures, it would be impossible to determine the cost of any one person’s
Mommy Makeover without an in-person examination.  Therefore, I would
recommend you contact a board certified plastic surgeon in your area.  I hope this is helpful to
you.  Best of luck!

Thank you for your question.  The mommy makeover can include a variety of different procedures so it's important to know what you're comparing it to.  Having said that, based on over 7000 realself reviews, the average national cost is about $12350.  This will vary from surgeon to surgeon.  Be sure to consult with an experienced board certified plastic surgeon.  Good luck!

The costs varies depending upon the type of procedures done and the time involved. I would suggest meeting with a board certified plastic surgeon and discussing all your options. Some women do well with liposuction and an augmentation, and some need a breast lift or reduction and full tummy tuck with liposuction.

It is wise to check the website of the American Board for great doctors in the San Antonio Area. They can give you a good estimate regarding pricing in your case. Best of luck
