Andy Cohen looked noticeably different during his New Year's special with Anderson Cooper on CNN, sparking rumors about a facelift. He came out and addressed what he actually had done.

He addressed the speculation, and we're looking at his before and after photos. We'll never truly know exactly what he's had done since we're not his doctors, but we discuss what weight loss, professional lighting, and makeup can do tools most people don't have access to. That's part of the challenge: celebrities can look amazing through a combination of resources the general population simply doesn't have.

This sparks a bigger conversation about what celebrities owe the public. There's a level of privacy everyone deserves, but when you have a massive platform, where's the line between privacy and setting unrealistic expectations? We also dive into male cosmetic procedures, why male anatomy requires different techniques, and why Botox in men needs to be done perfectly to avoid feminization.

What you'll learn:

• Specific changes visible in Andy Cohen's appearance.
• The anatomy differences that make male Botox more challenging.
• What professional makeup, lighting, and contouring can actually achieve.
• How facial volume changes naturally as we age.
• Why a straight brow matters for masculine appearance.
• The privacy versus transparency debate with real examples.
• Why weight loss shows differently on camera versus in person.

Kendall Jenner recently spoke out on a podcast, stating she's never had plastic surgery only baby Botox.

We're analyzing her before and after photos to educate our audience.

When celebrities with massive platforms lie about their procedures, young women develop false expectations about what's naturally achievable.

The transformation goes beyond what "baby Botox" alone can achieve.

She has great genetics and looked beautiful before, and she looks gorgeous now but if she was honest about the work, it would actually help people understand these results come from a combination of genetics and procedures, not just one or the other.

What you'll learn:

• What "baby Botox" is versus regular maintenance.
• How to spot the difference between minimal work and regular procedures.
• The visible changes we see in before and after comparisons.
• Why transparency matters from celebrities with large platforms.

About a year ago, the FDA approved the Motiva implant and after using them in our practices, we're seeing why patients love them.

These implants have been proven in Europe and South America for over a decade, and the technology is a real step forward. The gel and shell improvements mean they move and feel more like natural breast tissue than any previous generation. We discuss what's actually different and why this matters.

What You'll Learn:

• Why the Motiva implants are a game-changer for natural results.
• How the FDA approval process works (and why the US gets technology last).
• The difference between textured and smooth implants.
• Why these new implants move and feel more like real breast tissue.
• Who makes a good candidate for this technology.

Are you thinking about breast augmentation or upgrading to these newer implants? We practice in New Jersey and Rochester, NY, and we'd love to see you if you're in the area. You can come try them on and feel them in our office. Not local? Find a board-certified plastic surgeon near you and ask about 6th generation implants.

Medical spas are popping up on every corner, and while many are reputable and well-run, not all are created equal.

In this episode, we're giving you a reality check about what "medical" actually means when it comes to med spas.

We discuss why any doctor can be a medical director (even if they have zero aesthetic training), the critical questions you need to ask before getting injected, and the red flags to watch out for.

From supervision standards to pricing, we discuss how to find a truly qualified provider who can handle complications if they arise.

What You'll Learn:

• Why "medical" spa doesn't always mean properly supervised.
• How any doctor (cardiologist, pediatrician, gastroenterologist) can be a medical director.
• The critical questions to ask: Who supervises you? Where are they? Can they handle complications?
• Why having protocols and immediate access to a qualified physician matters.
• Red flags: gimmicky marketing, shopping-like atmosphere, confusing answers.
• How to identify if a med spa is truly medical or just using the name.
