This article is about post baby body and how a Mommy Makeover can assist.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Dear Dr. Baltimore,<\/p>\n<p>Since having kids, I haven&#8217;t felt comfortable in my skin. I work out as much as possible and eat pretty well, yet I still can&#8217;t seem to get back my post-baby body. I have heard playground whispers about women having <a href=\"\/body\/mommy-makeover\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mommy Makeover<\/a> procedures and am curious as to what this entails.<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely yours,<\/p>\n<p>Maybe a Mommy Makeover Mom<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Dear Maybe a Mommy Makeover Mom,<\/p>\n<p>Most women struggle with body image issues post-pregnancy and the truth is that the miracle that is childbirth, wreaks havoc on a woman&#8217;s body. Throw in breast feeding and multiple pregnancies or multiple births and you would be hard pressed to \ufb01nd any mom looking and feeling at her physical best.<\/p>\n<p>By the time most woman are done having children and breast feeding they often struggle to return to their post baby body.\u00a0 Frustration is common place even among the seemingly \ufb01t moms who, no matter how hard they workout, no matter how healthy they try and eat, they too, still cannot seem to achieve the results they so desire. The hard truth is that after childbirth, diet and exercise alone are often just not enough.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s where the term \u201cMommy Makeover\u201d comes into play. Because every woman&#8217;s body is di\ufb00erent, a true Mommy Makeover has no speci\ufb01c de\ufb01nition. Usually it involves <a href=\"\/about\/about-plastic-surgery\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">plastic surgery<\/a> repair\u00a0of either the breast and or abdominal area. Tailored to the speci\ufb01c concerns of each individual, a Mommy Makeover procedure varies on a case by case basis.<\/p>\n<p>For some women, a <a href=\"\/breast\/breast-lift\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">breast lift<\/a> may be all that is necessary to address her concerns, while others may require one of the other\u00a0<a href=\"\/breast\/breast-augmentation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Breast augmentation<\/a> alternatives. Most women will benefit from some type of <a href=\"\/body\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">body contouring<\/a>\u00a0of the\u00a0abdominal region, such as a\u00a0<a href=\"\/body\/tummy-tuck\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tummy Tuck<\/a> procedure or\u00a0<a href=\"\/body\/liposuction\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">liposuction<\/a>. Sometimes, minor procedures can dramatically change a woman&#8217;s physical appearance and self-con\ufb01dence. During your consultation, we will discuss options best suited to your desired results and lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p>While insurance companies most likely will not cover any of these procedures, we are happy to submit to your insurance if your case warrants it. We also offer special medical<a href=\"\/resources\/financing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> \ufb01nancing <\/a>through Care Credit and are happy to help you apply.<\/p>\n<p>I hope this answers most of your questions regarding the Mommy Makeover question. Please call my o\ufb03ce at 410-297-0831 to set up a Mommy Makeover consultation, if you want to discuss your speci\ufb01c situation in more detail. I look forward to hearing from you and any other women out there struggling with post-baby-body blues.<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely,<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Baltimore<\/p>\n<p><em>Dr. Steven J Rottman, MD (Dr. Baltimore) is a Double Board Certified, Georgetown University trained and Award Winning, Aesthetic and Reconstructive Plastic Surgeon with two office locations in the Baltimore Area. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Schedule your consultation today by calling <strong>410-297-0831. <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Do you have a question for Baltimore&#8217;s Top Doc ?
