Everyone loves to talk about trends—but in this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, Dr. Rady Rahban explains why that word is conveluted.
Instead of predictions and hype, Dr. Rahban breaks down what he’s actually seeing at the end of 2025 that’s likely to carry into 2026: what’s improving, what’s exploding, what’s being over-marketed, and what patients should approach with serious caution. From a more educated (and more fatigued) patient population, to the rise of regenerative medicine, earlier facial surgery in younger patients, skyrocketing revision cases, and massive post-weight-loss body contouring driven by GLP-1 medications—this episode is a reality check for where aesthetics is truly headed.
Dr. Rahban also tackles some of the most talked-about developments shaping 2026:
- The promise and confusion surrounding regenerative medicine (exosomes, PRP/PRF, stem cells)
- Why facial surgery is shifting younger—and why that can be a good thing when done correctly
- The limits and dangers of AI morphing in surgical planning
- Why revisions (including BBL reversals) are rapidly increasing
- The growing role of men in aesthetic surgery
- Smaller breasts, explants, and the changing pendulum of body ideals
- New volumization products like processed fat derivatives—and why they may change the future
- Motiva implants, Preservé techniques, and what patients aren’t being told
- Radiofrequency microneedling warnings, fat loss risks, and FDA alerts
- Counterfeit injectables and why “buyer beware” matters more than ever
As always, this isn’t about selling procedures—it’s about education, transparency, and helping patients avoid regret. If you or someone you love is considering aesthetic treatment in 2026, this episode may save you from making a decision you can’t undo.
