The Insider Guide to Undetectable Plastic Surgery and Deep Plane Facelifts with Dr Carl Truesdale

The Insider Guide to Undetectable Plastic Surgery and Deep Plane Facelifts with Dr Carl Truesdale

Dr. Carl Truesdale joins Naked Beauty to talk about how he became the go-to plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills. During our conversation Dr. Truesdale shared how his scientist and artist parents influenced his early interests, and ultimately his career. As a child he was a science nerd who attended science camp, and a gifted portrait artist. He was always interested in finding the beauty in people’s faces, an interest that would never leave him. While in medical school, Dr. Truesdale was faced with more limited perspectives on beauty and technique that prioritized Eurocentric features. Dr. Truesdale shared with us that he made it his mission to challenge these dated perspectives and provide his clients of color with high quality service that does not fundamentally change what they look like, and ultimately, who they are. Dr. Truesdale is best known for his natural-looking procedures, especially deep plane face lifts, but our conversation covers many procedures. We get the scoop on facelifts filler, buccal fat removal, fat transfers, rhinoplasty, lip lifts and more. Dr. Truesdale generously explains how many of these procedures work, and what he takes into account before agreeing to perform them on his patients. We also talk about his interest in social media, and why dispelling disinformation online about medicine and science is so important to him. We also discuss the treatments he dislikes, when he’ll reject patient requests, and the signs that tell him a patient should be recommended to therapeutic services pre-treatment. Dr.Truesdale has changed his industry and we are so excited for you to hear how he changed what was possible in his field.  Tune in as we discuss: (3:45) Growing Up A Science Nerd (5:05) His Background As A Portrait Artist (6:20) How He Saw Himself Growing Up (7:25) Challenging Norms About What It Means To Be Beautiful (8:50) How Plastic Surgery Helps People (9:45) The Privilege Of This Work (10:55) How Aging Changes Our Faces (11:35) If The Collagen Hype Is Legitimate (13:15) Aging More Rapidly At Certain Periods In Our Lives (15:15) What A Deep Plane Facelift Entails (16:40) Why Lip Lifts Are So Interesting (19:50) Avoiding Overfilling and Over-Injecting (21:00) Thoughts On The Lack Of Integrity In The Plastic Surgery Industry (22:25) The Rising Popularity of Blepharoplasty (23:50) The Value Of Buccal Fat Removal (25:55) Why Fat Transfers Are The BBL of The Face  (27:00) Fat Transfer Under The Eye Versus Filler (27:30) How Long Filler Can Actually Last (28:35) Lower Face Jowling (29:39) Why He Doesn’t Love KYBELLA (30:05) Why Brow Lifts Are Effective Procedures (31:17) How Rapid Weight Loss Affects The Face (36:20) Unlearning Eurocentric Teaching Models (36:45) Why He’s Vocal On Social Media (38:25) Procedures He May Get Done One Day (39:25) Thoughts On Ethnic Rhinoplasty (41:08) The Best Way To Determine How We’ll Look As We Age (42:15) Red Flags From Patients (46:10) Advice to Upcoming Plastic Surgeons (47:15) Self-Care and Gratitude Practice (50:15) When He Feels Most Beautiful  Rate, Subscribe & Review the Podcast on Apple [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/naked-beauty/id1131628553] Join the Naked Beauty Community on IG: @nakedbeautyplanet [https://www.instagram.com/nakedbeautyplanet/] Thanks for all the love and support.

Hope Giselle Wants Accomplices, Not Allies

Hope Giselle joins us to talk about her incredible journey to becoming a sought-after activist and speaker. Hope began her advocacy work fighting for inclusion and access for herself as an undergraduate at Alabama A&M University. Hope founded the university’s first LGBTQ+ organization and later became the first openly trans woman to earn a Master of Fine Arts from the university. She has since built a decade-long career as an activist, author, speaker, and nonprofit founder (AllowMe). Hope has proven that nothing is off limits to her, and she has committed her life’s work to ensuring the same for all others. During our conversation, we talked about the incredible life she’s built fighting against marginalization, and how she manages to look so good doing it. During our conversation, Hope told us what it was like growing up in Miami and having others project their beliefs about her gender and sexuality onto her at five years old. We talked about how growing up surrounded by her stylish Caribbean family of Cuban and  Haitian descent shaped her ideas about femininity and womanhood. She shared that her journey of defining and redefining herself was difficult, but at 19, a video of Janet Mock opened up new possibilities for her life. Hope talked about the most eye-opening aspects of her transition, especially at an HBCU that skews conservative about gender and sexuality. We have an incredible conversation about why there is sometimes a struggle among cis women, with being in community with our trans sisters, and how we might overcome those barriers. Hope brilliantly outlines the dangers trans people face each day, and the tangible ways we can all fight transphobia and transmisia. Of course, there was beauty talk, about the ways that the LGBTQ+ community has shaped the beauty industry across time. She also gave us her entire skincare, body care, and makeup routines.

Sami Miro on Rejecting Fast Fashion, Botox and Clean Makeup That Works

Sami Miro is the founder of Sami Miro Vintage, a Creative Director, and CFDA Vogue Fashion Fund finalist whose innovative approach to fashion merges circular design, emerging AI, and ethical production. During our conversation, Sami discusses how her sense of self was shaped early, growing up mixed-race (Black, French, and Russian) in San Francisco, raised solely by her father who reminded her of her inherent beauty. Sami’s style is incredibly unique, and in our conversation we talk about style differences between New York and LA, the beauty of individual style, and how vintage helped Sami find her voice, her style, and ultimately her career. Today, her zero-waste collaborations with brands like Levi's and Nike, her dressing of Beyoncé and her 29 dancers on the Cowboy Carter Tour, and her work with the 2024 US Olympic gymnastics team prove that fashion and sustainability are not at odds, they are inextricably linked.  (00:00) Introducing Sami Miro (00:02) Sami's Personal Style (00:04) LA Style vs. Personal Expression (00:09) Discovering Vintage Shopping (00:10) Sami's Dad & His Wild Career (00:17) From Tech to Fashion (00:21) Building Sami Miro Vintage & Circular Fashion (00:24) Vintage Denim Deep Dive (00:26) Fast Fashion & Environmental Impact (00:38) AI and Sustainability (00:40) Beauty Treatments & Skincare Routine (00:47) LA Beauty Standards (00:48) When Do You Feel Most Beautiful?

The Secret to Building a High-Impact Look

In this episode of Naked Beauty, I'm sharing the philosophy that has shaped the way I get dressed for years, and it's probably not what you think. When I'm getting ready for a big meeting, a wedding, a gallery opening, a red carpet, or even just a night out, I don't start with the outfit. I start with the character. I start with the story. I start by asking myself one question: What category am I walking? Inspired by the ballroom culture featured in Paris Is Burning, I break down how thinking in categories, not trends, style archetypes, or shopping lists, has completely changed the way I build a look. From corporate executive realness at L'Oréal headquarters to intellectual art girl at a Chelsea gallery opening, I'm sharing the framework that helps me make every styling decision feel intentional, cohesive, and uniquely me. We'll talk about why most people aren't struggling with clothes; they're struggling with narrative. I'll share how I create a "styling suite" before major events, why the room matters as much as the outfit, how to edit like a stylist, and why the most memorable looks always begin with a strong point of view. Plus, in honor of Pride Month, we discuss how ballroom culture, drag, and queer creativity influence the way we think about beauty, fashion, identity, and self-expression today. Whether you're getting dressed for a destination wedding, a job interview, a first date, or just trying to feel more like yourself, this episode will give you an entirely new way to think about personal style, because the outfit isn't the point. The character is.
