In this episode, Dr. Tower, a board-certified facial plastic surgeon, dives into the rising influence of AI in the world of plastic surgery. From hyper-realistic generated images to ChatGPT consultations, he unpacks how artificial intelligence is shaping patient expectations—and where it might be leading them astray. While AI can be a powerful tool for education and pre-op planning, it can also mislead patients with unrealistic visual outcomes and oversimplified advice.
