How much does a mommy makeover cost in Atlanta?
Thanks to innovations in cosmetic surgery, mommies who have endured the strain of childbirth can now regain confidence in their bodies. Plastic surgeons can enhance breasts that have lost their fullness due to breastfeeding and tighten skin around the abdomen that has lost its elasticity during pregnancy all at once.
Pregnancy and childbirth can take a huge toll on the body. Even months after you’ve given birth, you may notice sagging skin and pudgy fat that won’t go away no matter how much you diet and exercise. Don’t worry—you’re not alone. Millions of moms have noticed their breasts now sag after they’re done breastfeeding or a pooch in their tummy that wasn’t there before. This is why the mommy makeover exists.
If you’ve been thinking about getting a mommy makeover, then one of your first concerns is probably the cost. After all, a mommy makeover isn’t just one procedure—it is usually comprised of multiple procedures meant to enhance your body in a way that suits your needs. How much your makeover costs largely depends on which procedures you choose. However, the cost also depends on a few other factors as well.
What costs are included in a mommy makeover?
When getting any type of surgical procedure, it is important to know that costs do not end at the price of the procedure. Fees are always added to the initial cost of a mommy makeover to account for different aspects of the surgery.
As previously mentioned, the primary cost of your mommy makeover includes the cost of the procedures you’re getting done.
Other costs included in a mommy makeover are:
- Costs associated with the facility
- Surgeon’s fees
- Anesthesia fees
- Prescription medications
- Post-surgery garments
Keep in mind that other surgical expenses not listed here may also be included. However, this can vary by the procedures you get done, your facility’s billing system, and even your surgeon. Make sure to get an estimate of all the associated costs with your mommy makeover when you go in for your consultation. This way you’ll be able to budget better for your procedure.
What impacts the overall cost?
The average overall cost of a mommy makeover in Atlanta ranges from $9,000 to $30,000. However, there are many different factors that affect this estimate.
The cost of the procedures you get with your mommy makeover varies greatly across the country, and even across different regions of the state. A basic rule of thumb is that cosmetic surgery in larger cities usually costs more than in other regions, especially in plastic surgery hubs like Atlanta, Dallas, Beverly Hills, Manhattan, Miami, and Los Angeles. This is where the Top Doctors typically migrate to set-up their practices.
Furthermore, the number of procedures you get will impact the overall costs.
Procedures typically included in a mommy makeover are:
Some of these procedures are affected by different options associated with the procedure.
For example, if you choose to get a breast augmentation, saline implants will cost less than silicone implants. If you decide to get a tummy tuck, a mini tummy tuck which addressed the lower abdomen only, will cost less than a full tummy tuck which addresses the entire abdomen, upper and lower, including tightening the abdominal muscles.
When getting a mommy makeover, the surgical facility also affects the cost. In short, an accredited facility with board-certified surgeons and highly qualified and licensed staff will cost more than a non-accredited surgery center with no board-certified staff. Although an accredited facility is more expensive, it is worth it when you’re looking for the best results with the lowest risk. These facilities often have better equipment, and the staff’s high level of training and experience should make you confident in their abilities.
Along with the cost of the facility, the particular surgeon you choose may have higher fees due to experience and qualifications. Board-certified surgeons are going to cost more than non-certified surgeons, but this is completely acceptable as becoming board-certified demonstrates a significant level of dedication to top-quality work. Essentially, it is better to choose a board-certified surgeon who costs more than a non-certified surgeon who costs less because you can have more confidence in your results.
Mommy Makeover Financing Options
Because cosmetic procedures offered with the mommy makeover are considered elective, your insurance most likely won’t cover the costs. However, many plastic surgery facilities offer financing options for patients who can’t pay the total cost of their mommy makeover upfront.
For example, Buckhead Plastic Surgery has partnered with several different financial institutions to ensure patients get the best medical financial assistance for their needs. These programs all come with easy online applications and convenient payment plans that can be made in 3, 6, or 12 months and up to 60 months..
These options include:
All of these options allow you to pay for your procedure immediately upon approval with little to no interest. This is because these programs are designed specifically for medical procedures not covered by insurance.
If you are not paying out-of-pocket for your mommy makeover, then going through one of these lenders is typically your best option.
It is important to note that CareCredit differs from the other financing options available because it offers patients the option of having a co-signer, and it has the lowest rates. This program works like a traditional credit card but is used solely for healthcare services.
Furthermore, United Medical Credit offers customers a variety of different prime and subprime lenders, which helps provides multiple payment plans. There are also plans available to customers with lower credit scores. However, take a look at all financial programs to see which is right for you.
If these finance programs don’t work for you, there are a few other options. You can always choose to take a personal, non-medical loan or use a credit card. However, be aware that interest in these options is often high, so you’ll end up paying much more in the long run.
