Dr. Victoria Veytsman On Beauty

When it comes to beauty and social media ideals are unattainable. Sometimes I fully realize that perfection doesn't exist, especially when it comes to beauty and our standards of beauty. These days, we're all kind of what I see, at least on social media, chasing perfection or an ideal that doesn't exist. We need to shift our focus from creating, creating that, say, perfect outward appearance or perfect circumstances to really perfecting our spirit, perfecting our core. And that's a constant process. It's really how we think about perfection and in what context we use it. When it comes to beauty standards, perfection doesn't exist. But I think trying to attain that excellence, trying to attain perfection, when it comes to how we show up in the world, that's a little bit of a different story. When it comes to beauty and social media ideals are unattainable sometimes. And I see that a lot with patients coming into my practice asking to look like a totally different person. I think a part of that is really just embracing who we are and trying to enhance it.
