A cosmetic “hit and run" is when you get a treatment with barely any consultation, minimal assessment, and little to no aftercare—a quick in-and-out procedure with no real thought behind it. Aesthetics isn't like grabbing a Big Mac at the drive-thru, though. It's personal, customized, and requires a deeper understanding of how your body responds to treatments over time. What you've done before, what you might need now, and how things evolve all play a role in making sure your results are precise and natural. Dr. Bass explains what to look for in a plastic surgeon to get the best results and why building a long-term relationship with the right expert can make all the difference in achieving beautifully nuanced outcomes.

Guest: Kaamna Bhojwani, Sexuality & Relationship ExpertGuest Bio When Kaamna's mother accused her of being only interested in soul and sex, she had no idea how bang on she was. Today, Kaamna is a sexuality researcher with a specialization in shame and spirituality. Through 1:1 clients, small group workshops and public events, Kaamna helps people shed the shame and guilt around their sexuality and embrace a new sexual self-identity.

We all want to look and feel our best. It's a natural part of being human. But what exactly makes someone beautiful? Dr. Steven Dayan, a leading expert in beauty and aesthetics, dives deep into this question with Dr. Bass. They explore the complex interplay between our subconscious and conscious perceptions of beauty. It turns out, beauty isn't just skin deep. There's a mathematical side to it, involving ratios and proportions. It's also influenced by culture, personal style, and even confidence. When we enhance our appearance through plastic surgery, we're not just chasing a superficial ideal. We're aiming to boost our self-esteem and overall well-being. After all, feeling good about ourselves can positively impact our careers, relationships, and even our financial success. While cosmetic procedures can be a tool for improvement, they should never overshadow our natural selves. Dr. Dayan emphasizes that it's crucial to maintain authenticity and avoid unrealistic expectations, even in the age of social media and filtered selfies. Find out the true definition of beauty, why plastic surgery first originated, and how even the blind can detect beauty.

Why did Queen Elizabeth I look like she was auditioning for a role in a ghost story? In this episode of Join the Docs, our dynamic duo, Professor Jonathan Sackier and Dr. Nigel Guest, take a spook-tacular yet enlightening plunge into the world of historical beauty practices. They shine a spotlight on the iconic Queen Elizabeth I, whose beauty regimen had her looking as white as a sheet twith an approach as dangerous as a game of dodgeball with porcupines. The societal preference for pale skin back then was no joke, but the makeup they used certainly was—Venetian ceruse, a concoction so toxic it would make a chemistry teacher cry. This lead-laden face paint was the Elizabethan equivalent of playing Russian roulette with your health.Ever wondered what happens when you mix pore judgement with a dash of danger? Well, Professor Sackier and Doctor Guest are here to spill the creams—or rather, the ceruse. They dive into the health risks associated with these historical beauty practices, painting a vivid picture of lead poisoning that's more terrifying than a haunted house. While the ghostly pallor was deemed attractive to our ancestors, we wonder if the lead-induced cognitive impairment was valued, making it clear that looking like a porcelain doll came at a steep price. And let's not forget the long-term effects, like infertility, which was nature's way of saying, "Maybe don't put poison on your face."How did people back then not realise they were essentially turning themselves into walking, talking toxic waste dumps? The Docs, with their signature blend of humour and expertise, unravel this mystery while keeping you in stitches (metaphorically). They highlight the absurdity of historical beauty standards, making you grateful for modern skincare routines that don't involve hazardous materials.By the end of the episode, you'll be convinced that no amount of societal pressure is worth risking your health. So, next time you reach for that new beauty product, remember the powderful lessons of yesteryear and choose health over hazardous habits—or you might just makeup your mind the hard way!—--DISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed on Join the Docs are those of Dr. Nigel Guest, Jonathan Sackier and other people on our show.

Have you ever wondered how a deadly toxin found in spoiled sausages could end up being the secret behind wrinkle-free foreheads? In this rib-tickling episode of Join the Docs, our dynamic duo, Professor Jonathan Sackier and Doctor Nigel Guest, take you on a wild ride through the history and medical marvels of botulinum toxin, affectionately known as Botox. The Docs kick things off by tracing its origins back to the days of the Roman Empire, where improperly prepared sausages were more than just a culinary faux pas—they were a lethal hazard! With a sprinkle of humour, the hosts reveal their own sausage preferences, from bratwurst to bangers, and even throw in a few sausage puns that are sure to make you "wurst" with laughter.Did you know that Botox isn't just for keeping those pesky crow's feet at bay? In a clinical but not cynical twist, Sackier and Guest dive into the surprising medical applications of Botox that go way beyond the realm of vanity. They discuss how this toxin, once feared for its deadly potential, is now a miracle worker in treating muscle spasms and conditions from mouth to anus. Imagine a toxin that can both paralyse and heal—talk about a toxin-ating paradox behind Botox is not only understandable but downright entertaining.Ever thought about the culinary disasters that led to medical breakthroughs? The Docs certainly have, and they share some laugh-out-loud anecdotes about historical food poisoning incidents that paved the way for modern medicine. From ancient Roman feasts gone awry to mediaeval sausage mishaps, The Docs paint a vivid picture of how botulinum toxin transitioned from a kitchen nightmare to a medical marvel. Their light-hearted approach ensures that even the most complex medical topics are as easy to digest as a well-cooked sausage—minus the botulinum, of course!So, why not join Professor Sackier and Doctor Guest for an episode that's as enlightening as it is entertaining? With their perfect blend of humour and expertise, they make the history and uses of Botox a topic you won't soon forget. Whether you're a medical professional or just someone curious about the quirks of history, this episode of Join the Docs promises to be a wrinkle in time you won't want to miss!—--DISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed on Join the Docs are those of Dr. Nigel Guest, Jonathan Sackier and other people on our show.

What is a non-surgical facelift? Plastic surgeon Kimberly Lee, MD, explains all the cosmetic treatments it can entail: injections of fat, filler, or neuromodulators; PDO threads (aka, “thread lifts”); radiofrequency skin tightening; and lasers. Plus, she talks about the long-term effects of filler, Botox, and Micro-Coring; details her approach to facial rejuvenation and how she helps patients decide if they're ready for cosmetic surgery; and shares her advice for what you can do to “stop time,” if you can't afford to (or don't want to!) get any cosmetic procedures.
