Your social media presence should reflect who you actually are, not who you think you need to be to go viral. In this episode, Mimi Banks and Dr. Dustin Portela sit down with Dr. Babak Azizzadeh, facial plastic surgeon and president-elect of the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, to discuss building a personal brand rooted in authenticity, professional expertise, and real-world results. Dr. Azizzadeh shares why trying to replicate other surgeons' content was a mistake, how he approaches showcasing his work without chasing dramatic viral transformations, and why he maintains separate social media accounts for his aesthetic and facial reanimation practices. For licensed professionals building their presence online, the takeaway is clear: your content should set accurate expectations for who you are, what you do, and the experience people can expect when they meet you in person.
