“Who Am I by Clemence Achkar” Podcast | Episode 25 with Dr. Joe Khoury

Описание: In this episode of Who Am I, Clemence Achkar sits with
Dr. Joe Khoury, plastic surgeon and international speaker, for a bold and honest conversation that goes far beyond aesthetic surgery.

Known for his expertise in body contouring, tummy tuck, liposuction, and body sculpting, Dr. Khoury shares what years of working on bodies have revealed to him about identity, insecurity, and society’s relationship with appearance.

Throughout the episode, the discussion explores:
• The rise of “natural enhancement” and whether it is truly natural or simply a softer marketing language
• Why liposuction is one of the most underestimated and risky procedures
• Body sculpting, tummy tuck, mummy makeover, and Brazilian butt lift: what is safe, what is dangerous, and what is misunderstood
• Artificial fat, fat transfer, implants — and where medical responsibility begins and ends
• Why the tummy has become more of an obsession than the face
• The reality of unregulated aesthetic practices and medical chaos in Lebanon
• Social media, filters, and unrealistic body standards
• Women, aging, self-worth, and the psychological pressure behind aesthetic decisions
• The concept of wellness in surgery and the importance of ethical boundaries
• A powerful “what not to do” segment for anyone considering aesthetic procedures

This episode is not about changing bodies.
It is about understanding why bodies have become the place where insecurity, reassurance, and identity collide.

A deep and necessary conversation about medicine, society, and the thin line between self-care and self-erasure.
