What is a realistic price for a mommy makeover in the CT/NY Area? What is the total time that I need to take from work?

There are numerous variables regarding cost of Mommy Makeover Surgery. Those include specific procedures required, need for breast implants, time of surgery, and specific geographic location of surgeon. I would plan on taking 2 weeks off from work for full recovery, less if you have a desk job.Most importantly, Be sure to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Good Luck!

Hello. The cost of  a MMO will vary based upon multiple factors including geography, surgeon, experience, and the area of the body that will be treated.  A price range can be $8000-$25000 but this is conjecture. You'd be better off by seeing a few BCPSs in consultation to get an idea of price ranges. However, please remember  that price is not the most important factor when deciding upon plastic surgery. Good luck!Dr. B

Thank you for your question.  Both the recovery time and the price of the procedure depend on the patient and surgeon.  "Mommy makeover" is a term given to a combination of procedures performed with the goal of restoring a woman's body after pregnancy and breast feeding.  For example, a mommy makeover could involve a breast lift and a tummy tuck or it could be a breast augmentation with a tummy tuck, to name a few variants.  Also, the time off would depend on your procedure and what your doctor recommends.  To get more specific answers, search for a surgeon who is board certified in plastic surgery and is an expert in the procedures you are looking to have performed.  You can then discuss pricing and recovery time based upon what is recommended for you.  All the best,Dr. ResultsMiami, FL
