    🎙️ Episode 14 - Going the Extra Mile: Plastic Surgery, Weight Loss & Building Confidence in Kids Plastic surgery and weight loss medications in children - taboo or necessary medical intervention? Dr. Alexandra Filingeri sits down with facial plastic surgeon Dr. Thomas Romo and pediatrician/obesity medicine specialist Dr. Sharon Somekh to tackle the conversations parents are afraid to have. Discover why childhood bullying over appearance leads to depressive and suicidal cycles, how "saccade" (eye scanning patterns) affects first impressions, and why Dr. Romo asks kids directly "does this bother you?" instead of consulting parents. Dr. Sharon (mother of 6 teenage girls) explains how 90s diet culture makes modern parents terrified to address obesity, even as 1 in 3 adolescents struggles with weight. Learn the evidence-based approach to GLP-1s in adolescents, why confidence starts at home, and how one surgery changed a deaf child's entire educational trajectory. These aren't taboo topics - they're life-changing medical solutions.
