Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
AREAS OF EXPERTISE
Post-Pregnancy Procedures
••
Long before the television show Extreme Makeover and the expression "mommy makeover," Dr. Teitelbaum had a special section on his website, "Moms, Get Your Body Back." In his Santa Monica plastic surgery practice, he had seen countless fit and beautiful mothers who could not get their body back no matter what they did.
A so-called "mommy makeover" is not a fixed schedule of procedures. It merely denotes that something is being done simultaneously to both the abdomen and to the chest in order to restore or even improve a pre-pregnancy body. The procedures done in both of these areas are identical to what can be done on their own to each of them.

I am an attorney and I sue healthcare providers. This makes me extremely picky about my doctors and cautious about the procedures I undertake. This is why I chose Dr. Teitelbaum:
• He came highly recommended by two separate board-certified physicians.
• He works with an anesthesiologist he has known and trusted for decades.
• My procedure was performed in his own surgical center,
