Show Notes

So many of us are spending the work day on Zoom calls right now that it's easy for people to start fixating on their appearance. When you spend too much time looking at yourself, especially in the absolutely brutal mirror called video chat, it's all too common to start picking out things you don't like. And some people decide to go a step further and do something about it. We wanted to learn more about what is being called Zoom Dysmorphia, so we called Dr. Steven L. Davis, a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon based in South Jersey who runs Davis Cosmetic Plastic Surgery. Dr. Davis joins KYW Newsradio In Depth to talk about Zoom Dysmorphia, how he's seeing its effects in people who call him for consults, and how the coronavirus pandemic has changed his interactions with his clients.
