S06E103 Navigating Obesity and Plastic Surgery - Today's Choices
Episode 103
Friday, 3 January, 2025
Nearly three-quarters of U.S. adults are overweight or obese. The obesity epidemic is a multifaceted challenge fueled by genetics, environment, and lifestyle. Navigating the journey to a sustainable, healthy weight is crucial, especially for those considering the transformative potential of plastic surgery. Join hosts Dr. Sam Jejurikar @samjejurikar, Dr. Lawrence Tong @yorkvilleplasticsurgery, and Dr. Sam Rhee @bergencosmetic as we dive into the complexities faced by patients with a BMI of 25 to 30 who seek procedures such as tummy tucks and liposuction. The discussion extends to the powerful benefits of lifestyle changes, emphasizing the unglamorous yet essential aspects of stress management, nutrition, and exercise. GLP agonists may play a role, but they are no miracle cure. We aim to provide a thoughtful perspective, encouraging patients to align their aesthetic goals with overall wellness.Balancing aesthetics with health is a dance of ethics and patient expectations. This episode also tackles the safety and ethical considerations of cosmetic procedures for those with a high BMI, and the role GLP-1 agonists may have in this space. We bring you firsthand insights into surgical criteria, potential complications, and the crucial adaptations needed in practice, such as updated intake forms related to anesthesia. Our shared commitment is clear: prioritizing patient health while achieving satisfactory surgical outcomes. Listen in as we explore how these medications are reshaping the landscape of cosmetic surgery and what it means for both patients and practitioners.@sandiegoplasticsurgeon #MedicalPodcast @3plasticsurgerypodcast #podcast #plasticsurgery #cosmeticsurgery #plasticsurgeon #beauty #boardcertified #aesthetic #3plasticsurgeonsandamicrophone #bergencosmetic #bestplasticsurgeon #beforeafter #aesthetics #realpatientrealresult #boardcertifiedplasticsurgeon #njplasticsurgeon #njplasticsurgery #nyplasticsurgeon #nyplasticsurgery
