Dr. Reddy also talks about body dysmorphia in the weight loss community, mommy guilt, the power of humor in healing, and why she refuses to hand over her social media — even as her practice explodes with growth.

• What it’s really like to build your own plastic surgery practice
• Why connection with your surgeon matters more than ever
• Red flags of “chop-shop” surgery centers and why they’re dangerous
