What is included in a mommy makeover, and what is not

A tummy tuck plus a breast operation in one anaesthetic, usually with flank liposuction, from €6,500 — and a list of things we refuse to add to the same day.

The standard combination, and the price

A mommy makeover here is a tummy tuck and a breast operation done in one anaesthetic, usually with liposuction of the flanks, and it starts at €6,500. The breast half is either an implant, a lift, or both, depending on where the nipple sits. The price covers the surgery in a hospital with intensive care on site, the anaesthetist, the compression garments and the follow-up. Compare that with €3,600 for a tummy tuck and €3,500 for breast aesthetics booked separately.

What the tummy half actually repairs

The part that matters most is not the skin. Pregnancy separates the two vertical abdominal muscles at the midline, and no amount of exercise closes that gap once the connective tissue between them has stretched. A tummy tuck stitches them back together, which flattens the profile and often improves lower back strain. Liposuction alone does none of this — it removes fat from a wall that is still separated, which is why we refuse it as a substitute in this group.

What we will not add to the same day

Requests to add a BBL, an arm lift and thigh work onto a tummy tuck and breast surgery arrive regularly, and we decline them. Operating time, blood loss and the volume of tissue traumatised all add up, and clotting risk rises with time under anaesthesia and with more surfaces healing at once. We keep a mommy makeover within a single, controlled operation and plan anything further for a separate trip, even though the second trip costs you more.

The two conditions we ask for first

Be within a few kilograms of a weight you can hold, and be at least six months past breastfeeding so the breast has settled to its final volume. We also ask you to be finished having children — not because pregnancy afterwards is dangerous, but because it undoes the muscle repair and the skin tightening you have just paid for. If another pregnancy is possible within two years, our advice is to wait, and we give it in writing.

Frequently asked questions

What is included in a mommy makeover, and what is not

Flank and waist liposuction is normally included because it is contiguous with the tummy tuck and adds little time. Separate thigh work is a different operating field and extra hours under anaesthesia, so we plan it as its own procedure rather than stacking it on.

Yes, and the saving is mainly one anaesthetic, one hospital admission and one trip rather than two. At €6,500 against €3,600 plus €3,500 booked apart, the arithmetic is straightforward — but it only applies when combining them is safe for you.
