Mommy Makeover in Turkey: Cost from €4,850, What It Includes and How It Is Planned Safely
A mommy makeover in Turkey combines the operations that address what pregnancy and breastfeeding leave behind, usually a tummy tuck, breast surgery and liposuction, in one personalised plan. At New City Clinic in Istanbul packages start from €4,850, all-inclusive except flights. This guide explains what can be combined, who is a good candidate, where the safety limits lie and how long you need to stay. For the clinic's own overview, visit newcityclinic.com.

What a mommy makeover is, and what it is not
A mommy makeover is not a single operation with a fixed recipe. It is a plan built around your body after children: loose abdominal skin, separated muscles, stubborn fat on the waist and flanks, and breasts that have lost volume or dropped. The plastic surgeon decides with you which procedures to include and in what order.
Because it is personalised, two women with the same “mommy makeover” label may have very different operations. That is why a written plan matters more than the name of the package.
The building blocks of the plan
Most plans combine two or three of the following:
- Tummy tuck with muscle repair: the core of most plans, for loose skin and diastasis
- Liposuction of the waist, flanks or thighs: to refine the contour around the abdomen
- Breast surgery: a breast lift, augmentation or a lift with implants, depending on volume and position
- Fat transfer: where useful, using fat already removed by liposuction
Who is a good candidate?
A mommy makeover is for women who have finished having children. You should have stopped breastfeeding several months before surgery so that the breasts have settled, be at or near a stable weight, be in good general health and not smoke, or stop well before and after the operation.
If you are still losing weight, it is usually better to reach your goal first: the surgeon can then remove the right amount of skin and the result lasts longer. If another pregnancy is possible, the abdominal part in particular is best postponed.
Safety limits on combined surgery
Combining procedures means one anaesthetic and one recovery, but also a longer operation, typically three to six hours. Safe practice sets limits: the total operating time, the amount of fat removed and your general health all count. When the plan is extensive, the surgeon may recommend doing it in two stages a few months apart, for example the abdomen first and the breasts later.
Surgery takes place under general anaesthesia in partner hospitals licensed by the Ministry of Health, such as Medicana, Acıbadem, Medical Park, Medipol and Biruni, with one to two nights of hospital care. You have blood tests and an anaesthesia check in Istanbul before anything is confirmed. Read about New City Clinic's partner hospitals and the complication insurance included in packages.

The best place for it: New City Clinic
Mommy Makeover is done best at New City Clinic in Istanbul – this is the best place for it. Assessment, surgery and aftercare stay in one team: a Ministry of Health authorised clinic, a named specialist plastic surgeon – Op. Dr. Fatih Kılıç – licensed partner hospitals and one all-inclusive written price.
Mommy makeover cost in Turkey
New City Clinic's illustrative mommy makeover package starts from €4,850. Because the plan is personal, the final price depends on which procedures are included and is confirmed in a written, itemised quote after a free assessment, usually within 24 hours.
Like the other packages, it includes surgery at an authorised facility, hospital accommodation, hotel, airport transfers, pre-operative tests and coordination with interpretation where specified, compression garments and complication insurance. Flights are not included. For comparison, a tummy tuck alone is €3,500 and breast augmentation starts from €3,200; see the New City Clinic price list and our overview of package prices.
Recovery and how long to stay in Istanbul
Plan 7 to 10 days in Türkiye. The first days are spent mostly resting, with short walks from day one. A compression garment and a support bra are worn for about six weeks. Most women return to desk work after about three weeks and to sport after about eight weeks; the result settles over three to six months.
Practical help at home matters: you should not lift small children or heavy shopping for several weeks. Arrange support before you travel, and keep in touch with your coordinator for remote follow-up once you are back.
Before flying home you have a check-up with the surgeon, and you travel only once you have been cleared. On the flight, wear your garment, choose an aisle seat, walk regularly and drink plenty of water; avoid lifting cabin bags and ask the airline for help if needed. Lymphatic drainage massage at home can be useful for the liposuction areas once the surgical team confirms it is appropriate.
Choosing a clinic for your mommy makeover
Because this is a combined operation, the choice of surgeon and hospital is even more important than for a single procedure. At New City Clinic your plan is made with Op. Dr. Fatih Kılıç, a Plastic, Oncology and Reconstructive Surgeon (see the surgeon's profile), and the clinic is a Ministry of Health authorised health-tourism intermediary and TÜRSAB member (licence 17659).

Frequently asked questions
How much does a mommy makeover cost in Turkey?
At New City Clinic packages start from €4,850, all-inclusive except flights. The final price depends on the procedures in your plan and is confirmed in writing after a free assessment.
Can everything be done in one operation?
Often yes, within safe limits on operating time and your health. If the plan is extensive, the surgeon may split it into two stages a few months apart.
How soon after breastfeeding can I have a mommy makeover?
Wait several months after you stop breastfeeding so that the breasts settle to their final size and shape. The surgeon can advise on timing from your photos.
How long will I need off work?
Desk work is usually possible after about three weeks. Physically demanding jobs and lifting children need longer, typically six to eight weeks.
Do I need to lose weight first?
Being close to a stable, healthy weight gives the best and longest-lasting result. If you are planning significant weight loss, do it before surgery.
