Real talk: Breast implants are NOT lifetime devices. In this episode, we break down what that really means—plus the most common complications, like capsular contracture and implant malposition. We also dive into implant generations, today’s technology, and the ongoing conversation around breast implant illness.
Why is aesthetic care still taboo—especially in cities like Pittsburgh?
In this episode, we dive into the Allure Magazine stat that there are just as many medspas in the U.S. as McDonald’s… so if everyone’s doing it, why are we still whispering about it?

Because everyone deserves to feel like the best version of themselves—no secrecy required.
In this episode, we dig into the realities of modern plastic surgery—who’s actually allowed to operate, how corporate models like Sono Bello train any MD to perform cosmetic procedures, and why patients need to be savvy when choosing their doctor.
We break down the tension between profit vs. patient care as private practices are swallowed by mega corporations, and ask the big question: Is pursuing profit for profit’s sake the real problem?
Dr. Davila shares misconceptions about private practice plastic surgeons, his unique perspective as both CEO & surgeon, and why accessibility and responsibility matter.

Plus, Dr. Davila shares his firsthand experience putting our own recovery protocol to the test.
Tune in for a real conversation about healing, recovery, and redefining “downtime.”
There’s a lot of ‘snake oil’ in aesthetics — but how do you know what’s real?

10:55 – Spotlight on Dr. Carl von Graefe
We shout out Dr. Carl von Graefe — often called the founder of modern plastic surgery. Back in 1818, he published Rhinoplastik, one of the first major works on reconstructive surgery. His pioneering approach emphasized restoring both form and function — a principle that still guides plastic surgery today.
