To cut or not to cut: Plastic surgery and culture with Dr. Louis DeJoseph

What do you do when you look in the mirror and gravity has stricken your once very youthful high and tight face? Not gonna lie - it’s a beeeyach. It can really mess with you. And it’s no secret that our society for centuries and centuries has put premium value on youth as a moral imperative to beauty. And wherever you may stand on plastic surgery, fillers, injections - it can also make a world of positive difference when done right and for the right reasons. So the question is - to cut or not to cut - and today, I got one of my favorite people ever on the podcast to unpack some of the beauty trends, understanding when it makes sense for surgery or less invasive options, what are some of the less effective trends that have really good marketing, how to find the right surgeon for you, and social commentary. Today’s guest is Dr. Louis DeJoseph, TRIPLE board certified award-winning renowned facial plastic surgeon based out of Atlanta. He is a Castle Connolly Top Doctor, voted Best Rhinoplasty Surgeon by Best Self, Best Facial Plastic Surgeon by Jezebel Magazine and featured in the Atlantan Magazine.Notable Timestamps:00:00:03 - Introduction to the Late Learner Podcast00:00:25 - Today's Topic: Aging and Beauty Standards00:00:46 - Societal Value on Youth and Beauty00:01:07 - To Cut or Not to Cut: Plastic Surgery Decisions00:01:28 - Demystifying Beauty Trends and Surgery00:02:01 - Introducing Dr. Louis DeJoseph00:02:44 - Fun Fact: Top Beauty Tips to Boost Mood00:04:04 - The Importance of Specialization in Facial Surgery00:05:55 - Dr. DeJoseph's Background and Passion for Facial Anatomy00:07:30 - Natural Approaches in Facial Plastic Surgery00:08:01 - Trends in Non-Invasive Treatments and Shift Back to Surgery00:10:53 - Marketing Influence on Beauty Trends00:12:17 - Dr. DeJoseph's Practice Evolution and Patient Observations00:15:06 - The Zoom Boom in Plastic Surgery00:17:15 - The Great Deflation: Dissolving Fillers00:18:03 - The Longevity of Filler Results00:21:31 - Choosing the Right Surgeon and Injector00:24:12 - Managing Patient Expectations and Obsessions00:27:17 - Dr. DeJoseph's Personal Interests and Fellowship Program00:29:08 - Marketing Trends and Trickery in Plastic Surgery00:32:02 - Learning More About Dr. DeJoseph and Premier ImageDr. Louis DeJoseph's Links:Instagram - Premier ImageInstagramPremier Image Cosmetic and Laser SurgeryResources Mentioned:Schedule a free 1:1 Breakthrough CallSurprisingly True Useful Fun Fact (STUFF) sourceBe sure to rate, review, and follow this podcast on your player and also, connect with me IRL for more goodness and life-changing stuff.
