The Real Cost of Mommy Makeover in Louisiana
Updated July 2026 · Based on published pricing from 19 Louisiana surgeons
Key Takeaways
- A mommy makeover in Louisiana typically costs about $13,148, based on published pricing from 10 Louisiana surgeons. Because it is a custom combination of procedures, there is no single number, only a range.
- Most people pay $9,586 to $17,750. The full spread runs from about $8,990 for a two-procedure plan to $22,000 and up when the plan includes a full tummy tuck, implants with a lift, and liposuction.
- Your city moves the price. A comparable plan runs around $13,698 in Metairie but about $30,000 in Shreveport, a gap of roughly $16,302.
- The bundle is the point. Combining a tummy tuck, breast surgery, and liposuction into one anesthesia session costs meaningfully less than booking the same procedures separately, and you recover once instead of two or three times. The component prices further down this page show what each piece runs on its own.
- Compare all-in quotes only. A complete price bundles the surgeon's fees for every procedure, anesthesia for the whole session, the facility, garments, and follow-up care; practices draw those lines differently.
- Financing is the norm. A mommy makeover is elective and paid out of pocket; most practices offer 6 to 24 month plans, and the bundle discount usually outruns the interest.
Louisiana Mommy Makeover at a glance
The headline number most people are looking for, before the details.
What you're actually paying for
The procedure list is the price. "Mommy makeover" is a package name, not a fixed operation: the most common core is a full tummy tuck plus breast surgery (augmentation, lift, or both) with liposuction of the flanks, but every element is optional. Each addition raises the quote and each combination changes it, which is why two makeover prices are rarely describing the same surgery.
The breast decision moves the total more than any other single choice. An augmentation alone, a lift alone, or an augmentation with a lift are three different operations with three different prices, and implant choice (saline, silicone, gummy bear) adds its own spread.
Session length has safety limits. Surgeons cap combined operating time, so very ambitious plans get staged into two sessions, which changes the math: two anesthesia and facility bills, two recoveries, but shorter and safer sessions. Where your plan lands on that line is a clinical decision first and a budget line second.
Geography stacks on top of everything else, and this is a procedure where the revision warning matters twice: the makeover touches the two most revision-prone areas in plastic surgery (breasts and abdomen). The lowest quote is not automatically the best deal.
- Surgeon's fees, per procedure. Each component (tummy tuck, augmentation, lift, liposuction) carries its own surgical fee, usually discounted when combined into one session. The tummy tuck is typically the largest single piece.
- One anesthesia session. A combined case runs four to seven hours under general anesthesia with a board-certified anesthesiologist or CRNA. Paying for one long session instead of two or three separate ones is where much of the bundle saving lives.
- Facility and possible overnight stay. An accredited surgical facility for a long case, and at many practices a supervised overnight stay afterward. Longer combined cases make facility quality non-negotiable.
- Implants, if included. Saline, silicone, or cohesive gummy bear implants each price differently; a fat-transfer plan trades implant cost for more liposuction time.
- Garments, drains, and follow-up. Compression garments for the abdomen and chest, drain care where used, and months of follow-up visits. Some quotes fold these in; others add them later. Always ask what the number covers.

The anchor of most makeovers: a full abdominoplasty removes loose skin, repairs separated abdominal muscles from pregnancy, and repositions the navel. Shown here as its standalone price for comparison.
What moves the price: Muscle repair and the amount of skin removed drive the fee. Inside a makeover it shares anesthesia and facility costs with the other procedures, which is where the bundle saving comes from.

How to pay for it, and how to bring the cost down
A mommy makeover is elective and paid out of pocket, so financing is the norm, not the exception. Medical-credit products like CareCredit and Alphaeon, and clinic-partnered lenders such as PatientFi or Cherry, spread the cost over 6 to 24 months, sometimes interest-free if paid inside a promo window.
Get the bundle math in writing. Ask the practice to quote your exact plan combined and as separate procedures; the session savings on anesthesia and facility fees are real, and seeing them itemized keeps every quote comparable.
Time it around your family plans. Surgeons generally recommend waiting until you are done having children and at a stable weight, because a future pregnancy can undo the abdominal repair, and redoing it means paying for it twice.
Resist anchoring on the cheapest quote. This is a long, combined operation touching the two most revision-prone areas in plastic surgery. Board certification, an accredited facility with overnight capability, and makeover-specific results matter more than a few hundred dollars.
Breast augmentation cost in Louisiana: common questions
How much does a mommy makeover cost in Louisiana?
Based on published pricing from 10 Louisiana surgeons, most mommy makeovers cost between $9,586 and $17,750, with a typical price around $13,148. A two-procedure plan can start near $8,990; a full plan with tummy tuck, implants with a lift, and liposuction can exceed $22,000.
What procedures are included in a mommy makeover?
It is a custom package, not a fixed menu. The most common core is a full tummy tuck plus breast surgery (augmentation, lift, or both), usually with liposuction of the flanks or waist. Some plans add labiaplasty or skin treatments. Your quote should list each component and what it costs inside the bundle.
Why is a mommy makeover more expensive in some Louisiana cities than others?
Mostly overhead and demand. In our Louisiana data, Shreveport runs around $30,000 while Metairie is closer to $13,698 for a comparable plan. Higher real estate, wages, and patient demand in big metros sit on top of every procedure performed there.
Is it cheaper to combine procedures than to do them separately?
Usually, yes. One anesthesia session, one facility booking, and one recovery replace two or three of each, and most surgeons discount the combined surgical fees as well. The limit is safety: total operating time is capped, so very large plans are staged into two sessions even if a single session would be cheaper.
Does insurance cover any of it?
A mommy makeover is cosmetic and not covered. Two narrow exceptions can apply to components: breast reduction with documented physical symptoms, and panniculectomy for an overhanging apron of skin causing rashes or infections. Diastasis (muscle separation) repair is generally considered cosmetic by insurers. Verify with your own plan.
What does the price actually include?
It varies by practice, which is why two quotes are hard to compare. A complete price covers every procedure's surgical fee, implants if used, anesthesia for the full session, the facility (and overnight stay where offered), garments, and follow-up care. Some practices quote surgical fees alone and add the rest later, and on a four-to-seven-hour case those add-ons are thousands of dollars. Always ask for the all-in number for your exact plan.
