What Affects the Cost?

1. Procedure Scope

Mini tummy tuck (below the navel only): $5,000–$9,000. Full abdominoplasty: $8,000–$14,000. Extended abdominoplasty (including hips/flanks): $10,000–$18,000. All prices include anesthesia and facility. Muscle repair (diastasis recti) adds $1,000–$2,500.

2. Muscle Repair

Many women after childbirth have separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti) that a tummy tuck can repair simultaneously. Muscle plication (tightening) adds $1,000–$2,500 to the procedure cost but is often included in the surgeon's fee.

3. Mommy Makeover Savings

Combining a tummy tuck with breast augmentation or lift, plus liposuction, is called a 'mommy makeover.' Doing procedures together saves on anesthesia ($1,500–$2,500 savings) and OR/facility fees ($1,000–$2,000 savings) vs. separate procedures.
