About this listen

In this episode of Beauty and the Beasts, Dr. Sam Jejurikar and Dr. Sal Pacella break down the major trends that are reshaping plastic surgery in 2025 and 2026. From the explosion of GLP 1 medications and the rise of younger facelifts to the emerging role of artificial intelligence in aesthetic medicine, they discuss what is changing, why it matters, and what patients should understand before choosing a procedure.

They explore how GLP 1 drugs influence body contouring, fat transfer, and surgical planning, including the challenges of skin elasticity and muscle loss. They also discuss why patients in their forties are seeking facelifts earlier than ever, the benefits of early intervention, and how new technology is improving facial analysis and surgical outcomes.

The conversation also dives into the rapid growth of AI in cosmetic surgery, including imaging, patient communication, clinical documentation, and future possibilities in diagnostics and planning.

If you want to understand where plastic surgery is headed and how new innovations may affect your care, this episode offers a clear and honest look at the future of aesthetics.
