Episode 029 | Getting To Know Dr. Solomon

Welcome to episode 29 of UnPhiltered. On this episode we get to know the REAL Doctor Phil Solomon.In this episode of The UnPhiltered Podcast, facial plastic surgeon Dr. Philip Solomon shares what it’s really like to practice aesthetic surgery for more than 25 years and how confidence, experience, and patient psychology shape surgical outcomes. Dr. Solomon discusses why some surgeons refuse facelift patients, how revision rhinoplasty cases differ from primary nose surgery, and why plastic surgery is never 100% predictable — even in expert hands. He explains how imposter syndrome can affect surgeons early in their careers, when true surgical confidence begins to develop, and why complex cases are technically exciting but emotionally demanding. The conversation also explores the psychological side of cosmetic surgery, including patient expectations, anxiety during recovery, and how modern influences like Zoom and social media have changed the way people see their faces. This episode provides honest insight into facelift surgery, revision rhinoplasty, facial rejuvenation, and the decision-making process behind aesthetic procedures. Dr. Solomon also speaks candidly about what he has personally done to his own face at 56 and how treatments like Botox, Halo laser, and Morpheus8 fit into long-term facial aging management. If you are researching facelift surgery, rhinoplasty, revision rhinoplasty, or trying to understand how to choose the right facial plastic surgeon, this episode offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at the human side of cosmetic surgery. Enjoy!
