Plastic Surgery Uncensored

She had seven children. She competed in bodybuilding. She ran marathons. She did everything “right.” And she still needed surgery.In this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, Dr. Rady Rahban sits down with Angela — a 42-year-old mother of seven who traveled from Colorado after realizing that even elite discipline and peak fitness couldn’t reverse the physical effects of pregnancy, breastfeeding, and abdominal muscle separation. At just 5’1” and 110 pounds, Angela was already competing in bodybuilding — yet loose skin, diastasis recti, and deflated breast tissue created limitations that no amount of training could fix. This conversation dismantles the myth that “working harder” eliminates the need for surgery — replacing shame with science, clarity, and empowerment. Dr. Rahban breaks down:Why even elite athletes may require surgical correction after multiple pregnanciesFat loss vs. loose skin vs. muscle separation — and why they’re not the sameWhy mini-tucks often fail athletic patientsWhen vertical and anchor scars are the right choiceWhat real recovery actually feels likeHow proper surgery restores strength, posture, and performanceThe psychology of confidence, intimacy, and body ownershipHow to properly vet a surgeon — and why podcasts reveal more truth than marketingAngela also shares her honest recovery experience, returning to heavy training, and how surgery elevated not just her body — but her confidence and quality of life. This episode is for women who’ve maximized their health and discipline — and are ready to understand when surgery becomes a tool, not a failure.🎧 A transparent look at what high-performance motherhood truly demands.✨ If you enjoyed this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored:✔️ Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.✔️ Rate & Review—your feedback helps more people find us.✔️ Follow Dr. Rady Rahban across all platforms for daily insights, behind-the-scenes, and patient education:Instagram: @drradyrahbanTikTok: @radyrahbanMDYouTube: @Rady RahbanFacebook: @Rady Rahban✔️ Share this episode with someone considering plastic surgery—the right knowledge can save a life. 🎙️ Plastic Surgery Uncensored: Real talk.

For many mothers, plastic surgery isn’t just a medical decision — it’s a moral one.In this deeply honest and emotionally grounded episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, Dr. Rady Rahban sits down with a mother who never imagined she would consider surgery… let alone go through with it. She wasn’t chasing perfection. She wasn’t influenced by social media. She wasn’t unhappy with her life. She was simply living in a body that no longer functioned the way it once did — after pregnancy, childbirth, and years of self-sacrifice.This episode explores the quiet guilt many women carry after becoming mothers:Am I selfish for wanting this? What will my husband think? My children? My community? My church?  Shouldn’t gratitude be enough?Through the lens of severe diastasis recti and tummy tuck surgery, this conversation gently dismantles the idea that caring for your body somehow diminishes your worth as a mother, wife, or woman of faith. Instead, it reframes plastic surgery as something far more nuanced: a personal decision rooted in function, self-respect, and honesty. You’ll hear about:Living for years with a body that looks “fine” on paper, but doesn’t feel rightExhausting non-surgical fixes that don’t work — and the disappointment that followsThe fear of being judged, even when no one is judging youWhy guilt often comes from our own inner voice, not our familiesHow choosing surgery didn’t take anything away — but gave her life backThis episode isn’t about vanity.It’s about permission. Permission to want relief.Permission to want confidence.Permission to be a devoted mother and a woman who feels whole in her body. If you’ve ever felt torn between gratitude and longing…If you’ve delayed a decision because guilt felt louder than your needs…If you’ve wondered whether choosing yourself could actually make you a better, more present mother… This conversation is for you.✨ If you enjoyed this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored:✔️ Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.✔️ Rate & Review—your feedback helps more people find us.✔️ Follow Dr. Rady Rahban across all platforms for daily insights, behind-the-scenes, and patient education:Instagram: @drradyrahbanTikTok: @radyrahbanMDYouTube: @Rady RahbanFacebook: @Rady Rahban✔️ Share this episode with someone considering plastic surgery—the right knowledge can save a life. 🎙️ Plastic Surgery Uncensored: Real talk.

What really makes male rhinoplasty different — and why do thick or oily skin types change everything?In this candid and deeply personal episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, Dr. Rady Rahban sits down with renowned photographer Anthony, who opens up about his real-life journey through male rhinoplasty with thick, oily skin — from hesitation and trust, to recovery, confidence, and unexpected life changes. This isn’t a surface-level conversation. Together, they break down the critical differences between male and female rhinoplasty, why widening a nose can sometimes be the right aesthetic move for men, and why thick skin dramatically impacts swelling, healing, and long-term results. Anthony shares what it’s actually like when the cast comes off — the swelling, the reality check, and why being unhappy at first can actually be a good sign.Dr. Rahban also explains why he refuses to use photo morphs, why breathing issues are so often overlooked in men, and how proper consultation separates ethical surgeons from the rest. But this episode goes beyond surgery. Anthony talks about the confidence shift that followed — being unrecognized by clients, family members not noticing anything “obvious,” dating with newfound self-assurance, and finally no longer hiding behind glasses or distractions. If you’ve ever wondered:Whether rhinoplasty will make you “lose yourself”Why thick or oily skin changes recovery timelinesHow masculinity is preserved (not erased) in male rhinoplastyOr whether aesthetic surgery can genuinely improve how you show up in life…this episode is for you. This is not about perfection.It’s about alignment, confidence, breathing better — and living fully.✨ If you enjoyed this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored:✔️ Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.✔️ Rate & Review—your feedback helps more people find us.✔️ Follow Dr. Rady Rahban across all platforms for daily insights, behind-the-scenes, and patient education:Instagram: @drradyrahbanTikTok: @radyrahbanMDYouTube: @Rady RahbanFacebook: @Rady Rahban✔️ Share this episode with someone considering plastic surgery—the right knowledge can save a life. 🎙️ Plastic Surgery Uncensored: Real talk.

You lost the weight — but are you prepared for what comes after?You did it.You lost 50, 70, 100 pounds or more. And that accomplishment deserves to be recognized for what it is: life-changing, hard-won, and deeply personal. But for many people, massive weight loss doesn’t end with celebration. It begins a new chapter — one few are warned about.In this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, Dr. Rady Rahban breaks down the aftermath of massive weight loss — not from a cosmetic lens, but from a biological, physical, and psychological one. Why excess skin happens. Why some areas deflate while others sag. Why no two bodies respond the same way, even after the same amount of weight loss.This is not about vanity.It’s about function, comfort, confidence, and health. Dr. Rahban explains what happens to skin elasticity after extreme stretching, why loose skin can feel more frustrating than the weight itself, and how excess tissue can affect mobility, hygiene, intimacy, and self-image — even as blood pressure improves, diabetes resolves, sleep improves, and energy returns. Whether your weight loss came from diet and exercise, bariatric surgery, or medications like GLP-1s, the reality is the same: massive weight loss often requires aftermath planning. That means understanding priorities, budgeting responsibly, choosing the right surgeon, preparing nutritionally, and setting realistic expectations around recovery, scars, and outcomes.It’s for anyone considering weight loss, currently in the middle of it, or standing at the finish line wondering what comes next. Because success isn’t just losing the weight.It’s knowing how to take care of yourself after you do.✨ If you enjoyed this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored:✔️ Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.✔️ Rate & Review—your feedback helps more people find us.✔️ Follow Dr. Rady Rahban across all platforms for daily insights, behind-the-scenes, and patient education:Instagram: @drradyrahbanTikTok: @radyrahbanMDYouTube: @Rady RahbanFacebook: @Rady Rahban✔️ Share this episode with someone considering plastic surgery—the right knowledge can save a life. 🎙️ Plastic Surgery Uncensored: Real talk.

If you’re a mom who eats clean, moves her body, believes in mind–body–spirit… and still looks in the mirror and thinks, “Why won’t my core come back?”—this episode is for you.In this conversation, Dr Rady Rahban sits down with his lovely patient Sandeep, a South Asian mom of two who lives a deeply holistic, spiritually grounded lifestyle: home births, extended breastfeeding, healthy diet, consistent exercise, mindfulness—the whole package. And yet, after doing everything right, she was left with a weakened core, diastasis (muscle separation), and an abdomen that simply would not respond to planks, Pilates, or clean eating. We talk honestly about the quiet struggle so many “natural” moms face but rarely say out loud:Feeling like choosing surgery is “cheating” or “not spiritual enough”The pressure to “love yourself no matter what” while still feeling uncomfortable in your own skinThe judgment from both sides—feminism and holistic culture—when you dare to choose a surgical solutionHow reframing surgery as treatment for a muscle injury (not a vanity project) changed her lifeSandeep shares what it really looked like to reconcile her values with having a tummy tuck and diastasis repair, how it transformed her relationship with her body, her fitness, her marriage—and even the example she’s setting for her teenage daughter. If you’re a mom who prides herself on being natural, but secretly wonders if surgery might actually support your quality of life, this episode will give you permission, perspective, and a whole lot of relief.✨ If you enjoyed this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored:✔️ Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.✔️ Rate & Review—your feedback helps more people find us.✔️ Follow Dr. Rady Rahban across all platforms for daily insights, behind-the-scenes, and patient education:Instagram: @drradyrahbanTikTok: @radyrahbanMDYouTube: @Rady RahbanFacebook: @Rady Rahban✔️ Share this episode with someone considering plastic surgery—the right knowledge can save a life. 🎙️ Plastic Surgery Uncensored: Real talk.
