In this episode of Big Butts No Lies, Mavi sits down with board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Christopher Park to explore his journey into plastic surgery and the evolution of his dual practice in cosmetic and reconstructive procedures. Dr. Park shares how his diverse experience allows him to blend techniques for better surgical outcomes and discusses why reconstructive surgery plays a key role in his approach. He explains his preference for using drains during abdominoplasties, including a specialized method that can reduce the need for drains but still favors them for promoting faster healing and fewer complications.

The conversation dives into the patient-surgeon relationship, with Dr. Park emphasizing personalized care over the impersonal approach of mass-market surgery clinics. He explains how easy it is for non-specialist doctors to perform cosmetic procedures without proper oversight, the difficulty of removing medical licenses, and how private equity is fueling the rise of high-volume, low-quality clinics. Dr. Park exposes the dangers of misleading social media content, poor follow-up care, and the commoditization of plastic surgery that ultimately harms patient safety and surgical outcomes.

Key Topics Covered:

• What defines reconstructive vs. cosmetic plastic surgery
• Why Dr. Park uses drains for tummy tucks and his technique to reduce drain use
• The benefit of surgeons trained in multiple procedures
• Dangers of high-volume, mass-market surgery clinics
• How private equity affects patient care in plastic surgery
• The importance of personal care, communication, and proper follow-up
• Why choosing a board-certified plastic surgeon matters
