Plastic surgery, Botox, fillers, face lifts, laser skin resurfacing, body
dysmorphia, beauty standards, and social media insecurity — what does a top
plastic surgeon actually see when they look at your face?
In this episode of Wait. What?!, Aimee Mayo sits down with Dr. Brian Biesman,
one of Nashville's most respected cosmetic surgeons and a Botox and filler
specialist. This is really about identity, reinvention, heartbreak, aging,
confidence, and how women can separate real self-worth from social media-created
insecurity.
What we cover:
* How social media made women hate things they never noticed before
* Why divorce and major life transitions send so many women to a plastic
surgeon's office
* The Kardashian effect, Instagram filters, and the beauty standard that broke
an entire generation
* The heartbreaking signs of body dysmorphia — and when a good doctor says NO
* A teenage girl's acne scar transformation that will make you cry
* The difference between enhancing who you are vs. chasing someone else's face
Whether you've ever thought about getting work done — or you just want to
understand why beauty culture feels so out of control right now — this episode
goes way deeper than surgery. It's about why criticism sticks, why reinvention
feels urgent after loss, and how women can get their groove back.
Dr. Brian Biesman | Nashville, TN | Named one of America's Best Doctors every
year since 2004, Dr. Biesman has over 30 years of experience in cosmetic eyelid
and facial surgery, injectables, laser skin resurfacing, and noninvasive body
contouring.

Dr. Brian Biesman: You know, surgery, I am a surgeon, and surgery is an important tool. So we say that two sides of our face, in particular, are cousins, but not sisters.
