Aesthetic Medicine Is Still Medicine: A Conversation with Dr. Talakokkla of Refine MD & Beyond
Aesthetic medicine is still medicine, and no one makes that case better than Dr. Sandhya Talakokkla, MD of Refine MD & Beyond. In this episode, the board-certified internal medicine physician shares how a decade in hospital medicine shapes her approach to aesthetics, why every treatment plan starts with your full health history, and what "physician-led care" really means for your safety.
Dr. Sandy breaks down the buzzwords taking over your feed, from peptides and GLP-1s to "Ozempic face" and Dollar Tree skincare dupes, and separates the marketing hype from the medical evidence. She also gets real about lip filler (yes, you'll probably bruise), the complications every patient deserves to know about, and her personal journey with postpartum hair loss.
Whether you're aesthetic-curious or a seasoned skincare devotee, this conversation is packed with honest, evidence-based guidance on looking refreshed while still looking like you.
Tune in and let's talk health! 💙
