What defines beauty is constantly changing—did you know that today, some people actually request a hump on their nose?

In this episode of the You Are Beautiful Podcast, we are joined by Dr. Ivy Ran. Dr. Ran is a fellowship-trained plastic surgeon and the founder and medical director of FlowMD Aesthetic Center & Ran Plastic Surgery. Her practice focuses on providing the same type of aesthetic care you would experience in Asia.

Together we'll explore how beauty standards evolve over time and across cultures. As beauty trends shift, our preferences change—like the increasing demand for a nose hump, which shows how diverse beauty ideals can be.

We discuss how these shifts influence the way we, as plastic surgeons, approach beauty and how cultural perspectives and trends shape the requests patients make today.

As beauty standards continue to evolve, we see a growing need to balance patient expectations with individual preferences, all while staying true to what’s truly beautiful for each person.
