Dr. Sam Jejurikar’s Podcast Offers Expert Insights into the Truth Behind Plastic Surgery

In his popular podcast “Three Plastic Surgeons and a Microphone,” co-host Dr. Sam Jejurikar empowers listeners with the real truths behind the cosmetic surgery hype.

Podcasting, which has been around since the 1980s, continues to grow exponentially. As of 2024, there are an estimated 4.2 million to 5 million podcasts worldwide, encompassing pretty much every imaginable niche from comedy to commentary, true crime to medicine. Some statistics worthy of note: Podcast listeners consider podcast hosts to be 64% more trustworthy than other influencers, and deem them “86% more trustworthy and 89% more authentic” than the average subject matter expert. When it comes to imparting accurate, experience-based information about plastic surgery, Dallas-based Dr. Sam Jejurikar and his “Three Plastic Surgeons and a Microphone” podcast co-hosts Dr. Salvatore Pacella and Dr. Sam Rhee, that audience trust is well earned.

Dr. Sam Jejurikar admits that one of the most frustrating aspects he encounters in the practice of cosmetic surgery is dealing with unrealistic patient expectations fueled by false claims of overnight miracles, or unfounded fears exacerbated by convoluted medical jargon and outdated science.

“Getting people to accept and love themselves for who they are sometimes can be quite difficult when they have underlying unhappiness and depression,” Jejurikar shared in an interview with Authority Magazine. “Patients sometimes misguidedly think their superficial appearance will change deep-rooted mental health issues.

“This obviously is not true. No plastic surgeon has a window into a patient’s soul, and it’s important to assess the patient’s goals for surgery and to ensure that these goals are realistic. Furthermore, it’s important to inform patients that the technology or procedure offered will only change the external appearance. The goal is to make the patient happy with the results of their procedures; it is not to cure underlying unhappiness with life in general.”

In their podcast, Dr. Jejurikar and his colleagues have made it their mission to cut through the cacophony of dangerous hype and misinformation, offering instead an insightful, engaging voice of reason as well as a relatable, reliable, and readily understandable source of fact-based data to help listeners make informed, intelligent decisions when contemplating potential cosmetic procedures.

The top-notch services he and his staff have come to be known for showcase Jejurikar’s exceptional ability to seamlessly blend the art of aesthetics with ultra-modern plastic and reconstructive techniques — but that’s just part of the equation.

They explained, “Navigating the considerations of breast lifts paired with implants, we discuss everything from patient suitability to the challenges faced during surgery. We share personal anecdotes from the operating room, debating the merits of various implant placements and techniques while emphasizing the crucial role of managing patient expectations.
