If you've been grinding at the gym trying to fix your chest and it isn't working the way you expected — there may be a reason for that. For a meaningful number of men, the issue isn't effort or body fat. It's glandular tissue. And no training protocol changes glandular tissue. In this episode, Dr. Chris Lee, MD covers everything men should know before walking into a gynecomastia co...

In this episode of Honest Lee, Dr. Chris Lee sits down with Patient Consultant Jenna Gomez to discuss one of the most talked-about topics in aesthetics today: facelifts. From celebrity influence and social media trends to the stigma that still surrounds plastic surgery, Dr. Lee and Jenna explore how perceptions of facial aging and cosmetic procedures continue to evolve.

The most common thing I hear when someone books a facelift consultation isn't about pain or recovery or cost. It's: "Please don't make me look fake."That fear is real — but it's based on an older version of surgery that doesn't reflect what modern facelift technique actually delivers. And it's quietly keeping a lot of good candidates from a conversation worth havi...

The global peptide supplement market hit $4.1 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach $11.2 billion by 2035. Instagram influencers, Silicon Valley biohackers, and MAHA movement figures are all talking about them. Your patients are asking about them constantly.

This episode is ripped from today's headlines. As of this recording, Kris Jenner just appeared on Khloé Kardashian's podcast to personally deny reports that she hates her facelift and is furious at her surgeon. The tabloid narrative — that her procedure is 'already slipping,' that she's 'raging,' that Dr. Steven Levine failed her — appears to be, in Jenner's own wor...

Testosterone levels in American men have been declining for decades — measurably, generationally, in ways that are not fully explained by aging alone. Men in their thirties today have meaningfully lower testosterone on average than men in their thirties did in the 1980s. One in five men under 40 meets the clinical definition of testosterone deficiency. Four in ten men over 45 have low testosterone...

More than 12% of American adults are now taking a GLP-1 medication — a number that more than doubled in the past eighteen months alone. These drugs are genuinely, historically remarkable. Semaglutide produces roughly 15% total body weight loss in clinical trials. Tirzepatide pushes that to nearly 21%. For millions of people who have struggled with obesity for decades, that is life-changing. The ca...

The med spa industry is a $19 billion market in the United States alone — and it is almost entirely unregulated at the federal level. There is no single governing body overseeing who is holding a syringe in the procedure room. Rules vary wildly by state, enforcement is inconsistent, and patients routinely walk in without any idea who is actually qualified to touch their face — or whether the produ...

The aesthetic industry performs over 38 million procedures globally per year — and a growing share of patients are coming to their first consultation not asking 'can you help me look better?' but 'can you fix what someone else did to me?' This episode tackles the uncomfortable truth at the heart of modern aesthetic medicine: the problem isn't just bad surgeons. It's an indu...
