Motherhood can be beautiful, yet the changes to the body that come along with it can be frustrating for many women, making them unsatisfied with undesired changes in their body that won’t just go away on their own.
Pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding can lead to persistent fat deposits in the abdomen, breasts, and thighs, lax skin, shrunken and sagging breasts, and separation of abdominal muscles. For many women, the answer is a “mommy makeover” — a custom combination of cosmetic surgery procedures (including liposuction) designed to restore confidence and allow women to feel good in their skin again.
Beverly Hills is the “mecca” of cosmetic surgery. (There are lots of fun things to do in Beverly Hills, but we’re focusing on healthcare!) But, in Beverly Hills, California, the price of a mommy makeover can be daunting. But you “get what you pay for,” as they say and you may want to consider a top-rated board-certified surgeon such as Ariel Ourian for your procedure. He’ll meet with you in person, and explain your options. Plus the team can explain the costs and available financing.
How Much Does a Mommy Makeover Cost in Beverly Hills?
Since a mommy makeover is a customized combination of treatments, the overall cost depends on the procedures involved. It’s one of those “it depends” type of answers; you need to come in for a personal consultation, and you’ll know the price after that free visit.
A few common components to cost are::
- Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) – eliminates extra skin and tightens weakened muscles.
- Breast Augmentation or Lift – To volume and restore shape for sagging breasts.
- Liposuction – Elimination of unwanted fat from any part of the body, including the abdomen, thighs, flanks or back
While each patient has different needs, Dr. Ourian is committed to creating a personalized surgical plan for his patients. Although the majority of women will require a series of procedures to change their bodies completely, others may only need a tummy tuck and liposuction. You are unique, so your “mommy makeover” (and associated costs and recovery times) will be unique, too.
Here are additional factors contributing to the cost of a Beverly Hills mommy makeover:
The surgeon’s experience – A plastic surgeon who is board-certified, like Dr. Ourian, goes above and beyond to ensure that you achieve natural, long-lasting results and that the surgery is performed safely.
Surgical facility and anesthesia fees — We have one of the country’s most advanced surgical centers with outstanding safety and comfort. Sometimes, your surgery may be performed offsite, which impacts the cost.
The complexity of the “mommy makeover” procedures executed – Challenging cases, such as muscle fixes or skin fixing, can create additional activity time and cost.
To ensure optimal results, postoperative care and recovery cover postoperative follow-up care, in-home recovery garments, and other aftercare services.
Non-monetary Costs
There are costs, however, beyond “dollars” as in terms of lost work time, some pain and the recovery process. It is a surgery, so you can expect some “down time” even in the best case scenario.
While women are concerned about the monetary cost of a mommy makeover, the emotional and psychological impact of changes to a post-pregnancy body is just as important.
Occasionally, sagging skin or separated abdominal muscles trigger physical discomfort, which can hinder posture and general mobility. The real value of a mommy makeover, however, is the boost in self-confidence, comfort, and quality of life.
Instead of treating it as a cost, view it as an investment in yourself. The long-term benefits — trusting your body, fitting into the clothes you love, not even thinking about the physical discomfort — outweigh the up-front cost.
A mommy makeover goes beyond mere physical alterations; it’s about restoring confidence, comfort, and security.
