It’s Paula’s real-life experience, and it will make you think twice about who you’re trusting with your body and your life. We unpack the dark truth about how cutting corners in plastic surgery is often about one thing: money.

    Noticing that your eyes look more tired—even when you’re well-rested?

    You’re not alone. In this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Rady Rahban takes a deep dive into one of the earliest and most common signs of aging: upper eyelid and brow changes. Many women in their late 30s and 40s begin to notice smudged makeup, drooping lids, or a “heaviness” around the eyes—but it’s not always due to excess eyelid skin. Dr. Rahban explains the anatomy behind these changes and why the issue is often a combination of brow descent and eyelid laxity—not one or the other. Listeners will learn the difference between upper blepharoplasty and lateral brow lifts, when a combined approach is necessary, and how to avoid that over-pulled or unnatural look that’s become all too common in today’s aesthetic world. This episode is a must-listen for anyone considering eye rejuvenation or simply curious about why their reflection seems a little different lately.
