Thinking About Botox, Fillers or an Intimate Procedure? What to Know First with Dr. Tali Arviv
Episode Description
In this episode, Dr. Tali Arviv, board-certified in internal medicine and practicing cosmetic dermatologist, breaks down the world of aesthetics through a grounded, honest lens. She and Spencer Moore talk about why women seek aesthetic procedures, how confidence shapes our choices, and how to navigate the overwhelming amount of information surrounding aging, injectables, and cosmetic surgery.
Dr. Arviv explains what women should know before getting Botox or fillers, the rising demand for labiaplasty, and how media impacts how we see ourselves. She also sheds light on the role hormone therapy can play during menopause and why internal health matters just as much as what we do on the surface.
