In this heartfelt and hilarious episode of Beauty & The Brain, hosts Dr. Chris Croley, NP Jerry Drinkard, and their favorite unofficial co-host Allie open up like never before. We’re diving deep into our own aesthetic transformations, sharing before-and-after glow-up photos, and revealing the treatments that shaped our self-image—from Botox and chemical peels to veneers, lip filler, and laser resurfacing.

🎙 Episode Highlights:

• Cringe-worthy teen phases, childhood chaos, and body image struggles
• How acne, confidence issues, and beauty culture sparked our interest in aesthetics
• Early experiences with skincare, injectables, and even a teenage nose job
• Honest takes on body dysmorphia, glow-up culture, and aging in the aesthetic industry
• Procedures we don’t regret, what truly made a difference, and why we’re still evolving

Whether you're a provider in medical aesthetics or just a beauty lover who's ever stared at old photos and cringed, this episode is full of laughs, real talk, and powerful insight into how we see ourselves—and how that changes over time.
