More people are heading out of town or out of the country for plastic surgery, hoping to save money or access treatments not available locally. But travel comes with trade-offs.

Dr. Bass explains why safety, standards, and follow-up care matter just as much as cost. From anesthesia risks to limited legal protections, there’s a lot to consider before choosing surgery abroad.

When we’re young, our faces have a smooth, full look thanks to well-defined fat pads and tight connective tissue. But as we age, those structures start to change, leading to sags, bags and changes in facial shape.

Facial aging doesn’t happen all at once. It’s a gradual process that starts as early as your 20s. At first, the face can look more sculpted and angular, but over time, fat volume loss, drooping, and eventually muscle and bone changes become more noticeable.

Restoring a youthful look often means going beyond just the skin. It takes a thoughtful approach that can include restoring lost volume, repositioning fat and connective tissue, and tightening the skin.

Drs. Bass and Edinger break down how facial aging really works, from the inside out, and why understanding these changes is key to treating them effectively.

Your beauty plan should be tailored to you—your goals, your timeline, and what you're comfortable with when it comes to recovery and results.

Dr. Bass explains his idea of “right-sized beauty planning” and why having a personalized approach makes all the difference in plastic surgery.

Whether you’re looking to address one specific feature, maintain your look over the next year, or map out a long-term transformation, having a clear plan helps you prioritize, budget, and coordinate treatments more effectively.

Dr. Bass breaks it down into three types of beauty plans: one that focuses on a single area, one for short-term maintenance, and one that takes a long view over several years. Your plastic surgeon is key in guiding you through the process and making sure your plan fits your life and goals.

Living in a diverse, multicultural society, your idea of beauty is shaped by the variety of people around you.

Dr. Douglas Steinbrech joins Dr. Bass to discuss his game-changing concept of body banking. Instead of tossing out fat after liposuction, body banking preserves it and strategically reinjects it into areas like the chest, shoulders, arms, or buttocks to enhance your shape and keep your body in balance.

It’s not just about taking fat away. It’s about sculpting, reshaping, and maximizing what you already have. This technique can also reduce the risk of that frustrating post-lipo “rebound fat,” where your body tries to make up for what was lost by storing fat in all the wrong places.

Hear why fat transfer to the breasts doesn’t always go as planned, and why fat tends to “stick” better in some areas than others.

Drs. Bass and Steinbrech also discuss how body banking may help prevent visceral fat buildup and related health problems, the role age plays in fat graft success, and options for people who don’t have much fat to begin with but still want a sculpted, athletic look.
