My personal experience with GLP-1’s

As conversations about GLP-1 medications have entered the mainstream, I shared my personal experience with the medication with Vogue editor Fiorella Valdesolo, discussing both the expected drawbacks, which for me have been worth it, as well as the benefits. My mood has improved, my joint pain is gone, and after losing weight, I’m no longer prediabetic.

Having my own experience with GLP-1 medications has also helped me better understand patients who come to see me for facial or body rejuvenation following GLP-1–related weight loss.


MY CONVERSATION WITH CR FASHION BOOK

Carine Roitfeld’s CR Fashion Book is one of my favorite publications, so it was a pleasure to speak with writer Fiorella Valdesolo about the evolving benchmarks in beauty and how plastic surgery is currently experiencing a renaissance. As I mentioned, despite the recent rise of the aspirational “glow-up” culture, there is a resurgence of patients “once again embracing a more restrained approach to plastic surgery and cosmetic dermatology.”


My Wellness Wisdom

Being chosen as the feature interview in the Nob Hill Gazette’s January Quizlette was not only an honor, it was so much fun! My conversation with editor Jennifer Pardini rolled like we were old friends, with me sharing my personal wellness, cuisine, and culture favorites in San Francisco and the Bay Area.


Smaller Breasts are In

Smaller breasts are finally getting their due, as covered in The Wall Street Journal’s review of Sarah Thorton’s book, TIT’S UP. I was thrilled that they prominently featured me and my practice in chapter 3, where I discussed my insights and opinions about the growing trend toward natural and proportionate breast surgery results. As I shared, “the male-centric aesthetic of large implants are trending out”. Most women are now wanting natural looking breasts, breasts that accommodate their lifestyle—not just for show.
