Since the pandemic started, people have become hyper-aware of their appearance while being overexposed to what they look like on videoconferencing. A tsunami of visits to the plastic surgeon has resulted, with patients asking to change more things about themselves than ever before.

"Zoom Dysmorphia" gives us an unrealistic body image. Sure, stress and taking breaks from aesthetic treatments during the pandemic played a part, but there are other reasons people look especially bad on videoconferencing.

Clinical and aesthetic photography expert Doug Canfield joins Dr. Bass to explain the reasons for this phenomenon and give us ways to look better on videoconferencing right now without seeing a surgeon.
