Episode 68: What Aging Well Really Looks Like: Inside Aesthetic and Naturopathic Medicine

Описание: So many women I meet are curious about aesthetic treatments—Botox, fillers, PRP—and also cautious. They want to feel like themselves, but more vibrant and confident. They want to age well, not erase their age. And they want to understand how these treatments actually work.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Nicola Bennett, ND, to explore the intersection of aesthetic medicine and naturopathic care. Dr. Nicola has built a practice that combines the science of aging with a deep understanding of women’s health and healing. Whether she’s treating wrinkles or supporting someone’s hormonal health, she brings the same lens: what’s the most supportive, sustainable, and aligned approach for this person?

We cover so much in this episode—from how neuromodulators and dermal fillers work, to natural regenerative options like PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) and microneedling, to the role of lifestyle, skincare, and timing. This is a thoughtful, grounded conversation about what’s possible when you blend intention with innovation.
