Plastic surgery isn't one-size-fits-all, and Dr. Lawrence Bass wants to keep it that way.

As aesthetic care becomes more mainstream, there's a growing risk of "fast-food" beauty—standardized treatments that ignore individual features and cultural nuances. Dr. Bass explains how the field has evolved from cookie-cutter results to true customization, driven by better techniques and a broader understanding of what beauty looks like across different faces and body types.

From rhinoplasty that celebrates ethnicity to body contouring that embraces diverse silhouettes, the focus now is on harmony, not uniformity. His advice: skip the trends, find a surgeon who shares your vision, and aim for results that feel authentically you.
