    Episode 032 | Best Age for Facelift
    2026/04/29
    Facelift surgery, particularly the deep plane facelift, has become one of the most advanced and natural-looking procedures in modern facial plastic surgery. In this episode of The UnPhiltered Podcast, board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Philip Solomon sits down with a real patient who underwent a deep plane facelift combined with rhinoplasty, offering a detailed look into the full journey, from consultation to recovery and long-term results. At what point should someone consider a facelift? Can combining a facelift with rhinoplasty improve overall facial harmony? Does lifting the face change how the nose looks? And what does recovery actually feel like in the first days and weeks after surgery? With more than 25 years of experience in facial plastic surgery, Dr. Solomon explains how surgeons assess facial balance, why the nose plays a central role in overall aesthetics, and when it makes sense to refine multiple areas at once. The discussion explores the importance of natural results, the difference between older facelift techniques and modern deep plane approaches, and how subtle refinements can create a more youthful appearance without looking overdone. The episode also provides a real patient perspective on surgical decision-making, including how to choose the right surgeon, what to expect on surgery day, and how recovery progresses over time. Topics such as swelling, healing timelines, and emotional expectations are addressed, along with the impact cosmetic procedures can have on confidence, professional life, and self-perception. Dr. Solomon also shares insights into the artistry behind facial rejuvenation, explaining how experience, precision, and an understanding of facial harmony come together to achieve consistent, natural-looking outcomes. As highlighted in this case, even small adjustments, measured in millimeters, can significantly influence the final aesthetic result.

    Episode 031 | Rhinoplasty: Surgeon Checklist
    2026/04/29
    Rhinoplasty, also known as a nose job, is one of the most requested and technically demanding procedures in facial plastic surgery. In this episode of The UnPhiltered Podcast, board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Philip Solomon walks through the entire rhinoplasty process, from the first consultation to surgery and the full recovery period. What actually happens during a rhinoplasty consultation? Do surgeons always have to break the nasal bones during a nose job? Can rhinoplasty affect breathing, and how do surgeons prevent functional problems after surgery? How long does rhinoplasty recovery really take? With more than 25 years of experience performing rhinoplasty surgery, Dr. Solomon explains how surgeons evaluate patients before operating, what makes someone a good candidate for a nose job, and the factors that influence both cosmetic and functional results. The discussion also covers open vs closed rhinoplasty, structural changes to the nasal bones and cartilage, the role of septoplasty in improving breathing, and how surgeons analyze facial balance when planning rhinoplasty. Dr. Solomon also shares insights into the artistic side of rhinoplasty, why millimeters can make a major difference in facial harmony, and why the healing process after nose surgery can take up to 12 months or longer. Patients often underestimate how swelling, skin thickness, and tissue healing affect the final result.
