Part 1 – Consultation | Katarina, 44

Ad Every face has a journey behind it, and Katarina’s story is one shaped by family, commitment and positive change. At 44, she is a mother of three who recently achieved a significant personal milestone, losing 8kg after years of finding weight difficult to shift after pregnancy. Although she is proud of her progress, she noticed that the weight loss also caused a change in her face, particularly the loss of volume in the mid and lower areas.

During her consultation, Katarina shared that she prefers a natural look and felt unsure about filler because of examples she had seen online. Her intention was not to look different, but to look fresher and less tired while remaining true to herself.

We discussed her concerns in detail and created a personalised treatment plan using Restylane dermal fillers. The focus was to restore gentle support, brighten the overall appearance and bring balance back to her features, while ensuring her natural beauty remained at the forefront.

There has always been a pursuit of beauty, but what it represents and how we access it is changing. Beauty is no longer simply a matter of genetics, ageing or luck. It has become something people can plan for, invest in and even curate across different stages of life.

A recent article in The Independent discussed a shift towards a more polished and lifted aesthetic that appears across red carpets and social media: smooth skin, higher brows, sharper jawlines and very little visible texture. It referenced figures such as Emma Stone, Jennifer Lawrence, Emily Blunt, Lindsay Lohan, Anne Hathaway and Demi Moore to illustrate how this look is showing up in culture, not to imply procedures, but to highlight the imagery shaping current ideals.

Skincare is often where this begins. For some people this means basic routines, for others it involves high end formulations and ingredients with active claims. It supports skin quality, but there is a limit to what topical products can achieve alone.

Non-surgical treatments sit in a different category altogether. They can offer subtle changes, ongoing maintenance and a sense of control over ageing, which is why they have become increasingly normalised and used earlier in adulthood.

Surgery then provides a more structural and longer lasting level of change. It is still a significant decision, yet it is not reserved solely for older demographics. The BBC recently reported on a 28 year-old who travelled abroad for a facelift, which reflects how expectations and access are shifting.

At the highest end of the spectrum, aesthetic procedures can move into the realm of ultra high value and exclusivity. Some surgeons command very high fees and offer bespoke, private experiences. The Independent referenced Kris Jenner as a public example of aesthetic investment at this end of the scale, where beauty becomes part of personal branding rather than simply rejuvenation.

What emerges is a landscape where beauty can be purchased at different levels, but the outcomes differ.

Beauty is one of those things that truly lives in the eye of the beholder. We asked people on the street which well known figures they personally find most attractive, including Michael B. Jordan, Timothee Chalamet, Henry Cavill, and Riz Ahmed, and the answers were wonderfully varied.

Some people were drawn to sharp jawlines and classic leading man features. Others preferred softer expressions or a more unconventional kind of charisma. A few talked about confidence, others mentioned warmth, and some focused on style or presence rather than appearance alone.

What stood out most was how uniquely each person defined attractive. There was no single standard. It was all about the small details that made someone pause, smile, or feel a spark.

Meet Katie. At 39, this was her first experience with injectables. A few weeks ago she came to see me for wrinkle relaxing injections to soften the expression lines through the frown, forehead and eye area. She then returned for the next stage of her treatment plan where we spoke about her goals, how she was feeling and what she hoped to see in the mirror.

At this appointment we carried out a full face rejuvenation using 6 ML of dermal filler. The focus was gentle and thoughtful restoration. We supported the mid-face, added soft definition to the lips and created harmony in the lower face with subtle chin blending. The approach was never dramatic or heavy. Product was placed only where time had created shadows.

There is a lot online about anti-filler sentiment and thoughtful conversation is important. It is also true that no other non-surgical treatment can provide this level of global rejuvenation in around 30 minutes. This is how filler should look. You should not be able to tell that someone has had work done, only that they have a renewed brightness that feels completely natural.

Kris Jenner’s 70th birthday recently caught attention for a different reason altogether, after it became known that her facial surgeon, Dr Steven Levine, was among the invited guests. Entertainment Tonight reported that she joked he would be booked for the rest of his career and that guests commented on her refreshed appearance. Whatever the accuracy of those details, the striking part was the level of openness around her facelift.

In a culture shaped by what The Cut describes as the Forever 35 Face, transparency from public figures plays an important role. It shifts the focus away from secrecy and towards a better understanding of the techniques, choices and expectations behind modern facial rejuvenation. The photos shared from the event may be filtered, but the underlying work is still visible and has contributed to the discussion that followed.

Facelift techniques such as SMAS and deep plane are often at the centre of these conversations. Each offers a different approach, and neither is automatically superior. The right technique depends on individual anatomy, goals and the experience of the surgeon, rather than on trends or celebrity examples.

Cosmetic procedures are personal decisions, and the most meaningful outcomes come from informed choices rather than the pursuit of an ageless ideal.

Khloe Kardashian turned 41 yesterday, and she was easily the standout face for me at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's wedding. That feathery pink dress was pure glamour, and she wore it with total confidence.

Khloe has changed a lot over the past few years. While she’s spoken about her weight loss and fitness routine, it seems likely that her transformation also includes several cosmetic procedures.

Based on recent photos, I believe she may have had the following work done:

▪️A temporal brow lift to elevate the outer brow area

▪️Upper blepharoplasty to smooth the upper eyelids

▪️Rhinoplasty for a more sculpted nose

▪️Lip filler to enhance volume and shape

▪️A face and neck lift for overall tightness and definition

▪️A chin implant for lower face projection

She looks dramatically different from a few years ago, and whether you see it as glow up or glam makeover, there’s no denying she’s created a bold new look for herself.

Disclaimer: This breakdown is purely speculative and based on my professional opinion. I have no personal knowledge of any treatments Khloe Kardashian may or may not have had.

There are many ways to understand masculinity in the face. Brad Pitt and Bradley Cooper illustrate two different aesthetic directions that both sit comfortably within a modern masculine identity. Brad holds a more rugged presence. There is natural hooding to the upper eyelid, softer movement lines and a heavier set to the brow. It reads grounded and unforced. Bradley has a more refined appearance. The eye area is more open, the transitions between features are smoother and the overall impression is lighter and more polished. Both outcomes are intentional. Neither is superior.

What shapes these differences are not dramatic interventions, but the subtleties. The amount of eyelid skin preserved. The position of the brow. The level of movement kept through the upper face. The degree of texture smoothing. These are small choices with a significant influence on how the face is read.

For male patients, clarity of direction is crucial. If your natural identity aligns more with a rugged aesthetic, more conservative decisions around the upper face help maintain character. If you prefer a refined softness, more openness and evenness can support that expression. The key is choosing a practitioner who understands these aesthetic codes and can guide the face in a direction that still feels like you.

The aim is not to create a new identity. It is to refine the one already present. The art is in knowing what to maintain, what to soften and what to allow to remain unchanged.

There is a lot of conversation at the moment about being in an 'anti-filler' era, and I understand why. We have all seen examples of filler that look puffy or overdone, where someone’s natural features appear replaced rather than supported. However, that conversation often overlooks a key group of people, particularly those in their 30s to mid 40s who are experiencing genuine volume loss due to ageing, weight changes, or genetics.

When the face loses volume, it is not only a matter of plumpness. It is about the underlying structure that supports the cheeks, under eye area, and mid-face. Once that structure diminishes, the face can look tired, drawn, or heavier.

Skincare, microneedling, facials, and radiofrequency treatments are excellent for improving skin quality and collagen, but they cannot restore lost volume. Filler can.

The problem is not filler itself. The problem is how filler has sometimes been used.

Overfilling and chasing trends can create the well known 'pillow face' appearance that many people are reacting against. In contrast, when filler is placed carefully and conservatively, with an understanding of anatomy and proportion, the result is subtle, supportive, and natural. You still look like yourself, simply more refreshed.

We are not in an anti-filler era. We are in a pro subtle, pro natural, pro skilled injector era.

For those with true volume loss, filler remains one of the most effective tools available. It works best when the aim is not to change your appearance, but to restore your features with intention and respect for the face you already have.

Jonathan Bailey was announced as People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive last night on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. The response has been strong because the choice feels grounded and timely.

Bailey has built his career steadily. He isn’t someone who relies on hype or heavy publicity. On screen and in interviews, he comes across as present and straightforward, and that has made him widely relatable.

He is also the first openly gay man to receive this title from People. That matters. It reflects a broader and more inclusive idea of what attractiveness can look like in mainstream culture.

So the headline is the award itself, but the significance is in what it represents: recognition, visibility, and a shift in who gets to be centered in these conversations.
