Surgery isn’t just about the procedure—it’s about how well you heal. And according to Dr. Cameron Chesnut, your recovery isn’t just luck—it’s a science.

Dr. Chesnut isn’t your typical plastic surgeon. The Anti-Aging Medicine World Congress called him “the best example of the new generation of modernly trained international surgeons.” And with a background spanning dermatology, facial plastics, regenerative medicine, and longevity science, he’s redefining what it means to look—and feel—your best.

In this episode, Dr. Chesnut breaks down why recovery is the most overlooked part of surgery, how cold plunges and hyperbaric oxygen therapy speed up healing, and why he avoids general anesthesia in favor of a cutting-edge approach that leaves his patients sharper, healthier, and pain-free.

“If I have a patient who is an avid cold plunger, I know without question that they are going to handle their postoperative recovery phase leaps and bounds better than somebody who is not accustomed to that.” ~ Dr. Cameron Chesnut
