At Belcara Health, we would like to share with you authentic comments from some of the women and men who have visited our board-certified plastic surgeons in Baltimore. These comments have been either sent to us via mail or email directly from our patients, or posted to online review sites. To speak directly with one of our patients about a procedure you would like to learn more about, our Patient Advisers would be happy to arrange that for you.
We are extremely proud of our patients and honored they wish to share their renewed confidence and successful results with you. Which is why we feature them throughout our website! CLICK HERE for a “Behind the Scenes” look at how our beautiful photographs are created.

“While I never really struggled with weight problems when I was younger, I gained a great deal of weight with both of my pregnancies (over 70 lbs, yikes!), and boasted a whopping 225 pounds on a 5 foot 6 1/2 inch frame with my second child. I was fortunate enough to lose all but 10-15 pounds within the first year after delivery. But even as I continued to lose those last stubborn few pounds, my stomach didn’t come close to flattening out one bit. I did personal training, Pilates, boot-camp, spinning, step, hot yoga, and even tried Jenny Craig, and people would still ask me if I was pregnant again. It was so frustrating. In addition, my small, but shapely breasts had ballooned from barely a B to a DD during pregnancy and breastfeeding, and while I wouldn’t trade that experience for anything, the aftermath was less than desirable. I lost most of the elasticity in my breast tissue, and had rather pronounced asymmetry. Everyone said I looked “fine,” and many women argued that these changes were the “badge of motherhood.” I disagreed. While I was well into my thirties, I had no desire to “retire” my bikini, and sport the one pieces I had so often seen my mother wear to conceal her “badges of motherhood.” In my head, I’m still in my twenties.
Anyway, I decided that cosmetic surgery was the only way I was going to get the results I wanted, so I shopped around. Believe it or not, I was 99% certain I was going to go to another plastic surgeon, and decided, on the advice of a neighbor, to have a consultation with Dr. Michael Cohen. Boy, am I sure glad I did! This kind of surgery is rather involved, and Dr. Cohen’s bedside manner immediately put me at ease. I really wanted natural looking results, and while I had a “size” in mind, I basically let him have carte blanche. I am so thrilled with my results, and not only would I do it again in a heartbeat, I would highly recommend the Center to any and all of my friends considering cosmetic surgery. The staff was courteous, friendly, and supportive, and my overall experience was phenomenal. So, I offer a heartfelt “thank you” for allowing me to look like I feel!”
“Annette, I love my new makeup and sunglasses! Thank you for making me look and feel pretty and for putting a much needed smile on my face.” This patient is wearing Babor Age ID Mattifying makeup and Prada sunglasses.

“Don’t just sit around and grow old gracefully, do something about your hair loss. It only took a couple of hours and new hair as started to re-grow within weeks. It’s decision that changed my life and it will change yours too.”
