Beyond Skin Deep: Exploring the Complexities of Beauty

Immigrantly

Today, I am diving deep into the multifaceted world of beauty – an intensely personal and profoundly public topic. The beauty landscape has undergone a seismic shift from societal perceptions to self-reflection in the age of social media and video calls. In a world where self-scrutiny is constant, have we become more conscious of our own uniqueness? Are we conditioned to view ourselves through an augmented lens, even in reality? Today, we will unpack these questions and try to gain insights into the complex interplay of beauty, technology, and societal norms.

My guest, Dr. John Mesa, MD, answers some of these questions. He is a Colombian plastic surgeon who specializes in cosmetic plastic surgery for the face, neck, and breasts. He is known as the “king of buccal fat removal” within the plastic surgery community. Dr. Mesa also serves as a member of countless societies specializing in plastic surgery. He has taught at universities as a Clinical Instructor, authored many peer-reviewed articles and book chapters, and published his book, Atlas of Operative Craniofacial Surgery.
