The Lens of Beauty: Photography, Aging & Cosmetic Surgery

In this episode of AgeLess, Dr Jonquille Chantrey is joined by art curator, lecturer and founder of Moseley Art Consultancy, Andrew Moseley, for a conversation at the intersection of medical aesthetics, art, ethics and identity. Together, we explore beauty constructs and look through the lens to uncover where did the art go in aesthetics? This episode examines the difference between treating a person as a subject with agency rather than an object to be altered.  It is about how we see people, how we shape identity, and what responsibility comes with that power. You'll learn: Why art has been lost in many areas of modern aesthetics The difference between seeing people & patients as subjects versus objects What the history of photography reveals about beauty, power & representation The importance of patient consultation How bias, culture and lived experience shape both artistic & medical decisions Why ethical aesthetics must be collaborative, individualised & inclusive The importance of resisting trend-led, factory-line treatment models How true aesthetic practice protects & honours identity rather than overriding it Exclusive listener offer found in the episode: As a thank you for listening, you can enjoy a free Skin Consultation and discount off the ØNE Medical Facial at ØNE aesthetic studiø, follow the link and enter the code in the episode: https://oneaestheticstudio.com/contact Subscribe, like, comment, and share with someone you love.  Stay Connected with AgeLess: Follow Jonquille on Instagram: @drjonquillechantrey Sign up for the newsletter: https://oneaestheticstudio.com/contact Discover more at: https://doctorjonquillechantrey.com/  AgeLess is science-led self-empowerment for modern ageing, health and beauty.   Disclaimer: The information on AgeLess with Dr Jonquille Chantrey is provided by Dr Jonquille Chantrey and Expert Skin Ltd for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
