Every day, Dr. Houssock and Lindsey talk to people with long-held misconceptions about hair transplant surgery and misunderstandings caused by the various hair restoration treatments sold to us through advertising.
Neither Dr. Houssock or Lindsey ever expected to become an expert in hair restoration, but today it is one of the most impactful ways they help both men and women.
Having cared for thousands of hair restoration patients between the two of them, they deconstruct the 7 most pervasive myths, including:
Non surgical treatments will bring back lost hairWhen I have surgery, I can be done with medicationI can have a full hair transplant in one dayGrafts taken from the back of my head will grow back Get the truth about what to expect from hair transplant surgery and hear whatâs required to truly look natural after a hair transplant.

Diastasis recti is very common but widely misunderstood, and itâs hard to even know you have it unless an expert confirms it. Because it is impossible to fix with exercise, tummy tuck surgery often includes diastasis repair.
In severe cases of diastasis, you might even still look pregnant long after the baby is born. It can also cause back pain or force your center of gravity to be off.
Along with fixing diastasis, umbilical hernias, and the terrible âC-section shelf,â we cover all the big questions including:
What can and canât be repaired w/a tummy tuck?Should you wait until you're done having kids to have a mommy makeover? Circumstances that might require someone to have a tummy tuck twice in their lifeWhat happens if you get pregnant again after surgery?How long should you be done breastfeeding before breast surgery? What are my vaginal rejuvenation options?
In part two of our Mommy Makeover mini-series, we cover diastasis in detail with photos and videos, so be sure to watch this episode on Spotify or YouTube.

For many people, going under general anesthesia is the scariest part of having surgery.
You trust that you wonât wake up unexpectedly in the middle of surgery, and that when itâs over you will wake up â without being in unbearable pain.

On this episode youâll meet Sarah, the intensive care nurse turned CRNA and Dr. Houssockâs trusted partner in the operating room. With each and every patient in the operating room, Sarah and Dr. Houssock do the profoundly important dance of surgeon and anesthetist.
Find out why our complication rate is so low, what happens when patients donât prepare themselves adequately for surgery, and the single most important factor to a smooth operation.

Nurse Val wanted breast augmentation her entire adult life, and five years ago she got it. She remembers how excited she was on the day of surgery, her husbandâs bad jokes, and how it felt like something was sitting on her when she woke up.
More recently as a new mom, she recalls the shocking changes to her breasts when the time for breastfeeding arrived. There are things sheâd do differently if she could do it over, and sheâs already planning what sheâll change when itâs time to replace her implants.
Valâs story is truly helpful advice to anyone thinking about breast augmentation, including why she regrets not taking more time off after surgery and the one surprise perk of getting breast implants before having her baby.
Because there are so many ways to do breast augmentation surgery and so many decisions to make, none of which are wrong, Val and Dr. Houssock help us understand why the most important choice of all is the plastic surgeon with whom you make those decisions.

Valerie, the operating room nurse at JEV, quizzes Dr. Houssock on the most common questions women have when considering breast augmentation, including implant size, incisions, recovery, and fixing asymmetry.
At every consultation and continuing through the pre-op appointment, careful attention is paid to choosing the right size. Once in the operating room, Dr. Houssock and Valerie work together and use implant sizers to confirm the size is exactly what each patient is expecting. With an overflow of conflicting and controversial information about breast implants out there, Dr. Houssock and Valerie set the record straight.

Raised in a small town in Pennsylvania, Dr. Carrie Houssock says she didnât grow up on a dirt road, but knew a lot of people who did. Nobody in her family was a doctor and she didnât even know any doctors, but from the time she was 8 years old she knew what she wanted to do.
Nearing the end of her first residency in general surgery, she interviewed for the residency program at Johns Hopkins Hospital. She was one of two women out of the 50 candidates to interview, and was then one of two chosen for the program.
During residency she met Dr. James Vogel, who became a mentor then a colleague, and when he retired in 2020 she decided to take over the practice. Today, JEV Plastic Surgery and Medical Aesthetics is a destination for aesthetic surgery and hair restoration not just in Baltimore but the DMV and beyond.
With her recovery nurse Alina (the âDisney Princessâ) as co-host, youâll find out in this introduction to both Dr. Houssock and the Perfectly Imperfect podcast who Carrie Houssock is, why she loves medicine, and why she just loves Baltimore so dang much.
