Social Media & Plastic Surgery: A Surgeon’s Perspective 🩺✨
Social media can be a powerful tool — but not a diagnosis
The Benefits
• Increases patient education and procedure awareness
• Allows transparency through real patient journeys
• Helps patients discover board-certified surgeons
• Encourages open, informed conversations about aesthetics
• Normalizes conversations around cosmetic choices
The Risks
• Viral trends ≠ medical advice
• Trend-driven content may oversimplify complex procedures
• Misinformation can spread faster than medical facts
•Comparing under qualified surgeons to qualified surgeons can result in price shopping
Our Philosophy:
Social media is a valuable educational platform — not a substitute for a personalized medical consultation. Every face and body is unique, and the best results come from individualized care, expert guidance, and realistic expectations.
📍 Always seek a board-certified plastic surgeon
📍 Ask questions
📍 Make decisions based on facts, not trends
