Retransmission - Dr. Meegan Gruber Shares Insight on Plastic Surgery Transparency: How Younger Generations Are Shaping a New Era of Body Authenticity
A culture change is affecting how people talk about cosmetic surgery, from popular TikToks to BBL reversals. Dr. Meegan Gruber shows why choices made with knowledge and power are becoming more critical. TAMPA, FLORIDA / ACCESS Newswire / June 20, 2025 / Younger people are driving a new wave of openness in the world of cosmetic surgery. They are not only accepting procedures but also expecting complete transparency about them. The way people talk about plastic surgery is changing. Body-positive creators are sharing their stories online, and an increasing number of influencers are discussing their personal transformations and life changes. Gruber Plastic Surgery is at the forefront of this culture change. Board-certified plastic surgeon and founder of Gruber Plastic Surgery, Dr. Meegan Gruber MD PhD, notes that more patients are coming in with greater knowledge, asking more in-depth questions, and selecting procedures that align with a growing movement toward natural beauty and authenticity. "People don't feel like they have to hide their procedures anymore," says Dr. Gruber. "Patients want to be real, and not just in how they look. They also want to know that their choices are respected and supported." "They want to know if the changes can be undone, if the results will still work in the future, and how their bodies will change." This change has also led to the so-called BBL Reversal Era, in which many people are seeking more natural, proportional results after years of trying to achieve curves that were too large. Instead of making surgery look cool, today's patients are pushing for adults to make decisions based on self-awareness and sustainability. This is reflected in the popularity of awake procedures, such as awake liposuction, at Gruber Plastic Surgery. During these procedures, patients remain awake and aware throughout, and they are actively involved in the conversation during the surgery. This method not only speeds up recovery but also fosters trust and openness, which are traits that today's patients consider essential. Dr. Gruber says, "Education is a form of empowerment." "Whether someone is thinking about a first procedure or a revision, we want to take the mystery out of every step." There is no such thing as a small question. We don't see radical openness as a trend; it's our way of life. It's less of a secret to have cosmetic surgery now that TikTok, Reddit forums, and wellness shows talk about everything from how to care for scars to the different kinds of implants. As a result? A public that knows more has fewer unrealistic demands and cares more about safety and ethics. Suppose you're thinking about getting surgery, like a breast revision, liposuction, or a BBL reversal. In that case, Dr. Gruber advises that you should undergo a comprehensive evaluation and prioritize your own goals over what others think is cool. About Gruber Plastic Surgery Gruber Plastic Surgery, located in Tampa, FL, is led by Dr. Meegan Gruber, MD Ph.D., a board-certified plastic surgeon renowned for her pioneering work in awake surgery. Dr. Gruber, also the star of "Awake Surgery," which you can stream today on TLC GO, HBO MAX, Hulu, Discovery+, and other streaming platforms, integrates advanced techniques and cutting-edge technology to deliver safe, comfortable, and natural-looking results with minimized recovery time.

ENG vs IND 1st Test: Shubman Gill breaks ICC rule on captaincy debut by wearing black socks, could face fine
By Aditya Bhagchandani Published on June 20, 2025, 22:59 IST India's new Test skipper Shubman Gill might have made headlines for his commanding half-century on Day 1 of the IND vs ENG 1st Test at Headingley, but he also caught the eye for a different reason — one that could lead to disciplinary action from the International Cricket Council (ICC). Gill was spotted wearing black socks instead of the mandated white or cream in Test cricket. According to clause 19.45 of the ICC Clothing and Equipment Rules and Regulations, players must wear white, cream or light grey-colour socks in Tests. Gill's choice of black clearly breaches this protocol. The rule, based on MCC's recommendation, was enforced in May 2023 and is applicable across all ICC-sanctioned Test matches. Could Gill be fined? The final decision lies with match referee Richie Richardson. If deemed a Level 1 offence and found to be deliberate, Gill could be fined 10–20% of his match fee. If considered unintentional — for instance, due to an emergency like wet or unavailable white socks — he may escape penalty. Past incidents involving dress code violations: KL Rahul (2018) : Fined 10% for wearing a non-compliant helmet. : Fined 10% for wearing a non-compliant helmet. Chris Gayle (2016) : Fined 10% for using a black-bladed bat in BBL. : Fined 10% for using a black-bladed bat in BBL. Imam-ul-Haq (2019) : Fined 15% for using a bat with an unauthorised logo. : Fined 15% for using a bat with an unauthorised logo. Joe Root (2021): Fined 15% for sporting a rainbow logo during a Test. While minor, such violations still fall under ICC oversight and could lead to disciplinary action depending on the referee's interpretation. Despite the potential fine, Gill impressed with the bat, scoring 53* at Tea on Day 1 as India stood strong at 215/2.

Katie Price looks worse for wear and struggles to contain her surgically-enhanced assets in a skimpy white top as she parties with Wayne Lineker in Ibiza
Katie Price looked worse for wear as she partied the night away with Wayne Lineker in Ibiza this week. The former glamour model, 45, was seen clutching her drink and lifting her hands up in the air to dance. As she lifted her arms up she struggled to contain her surgically-enhanced assets and almost suffered a wardrobe malfunction. She was joined by a raucous group of friends including club owner Wayne, 63, who wore a white T-shirt and shades. Since arriving in Ibiza, Katie has caught up with famous pals including Wayne at his O Beach club, Dean Gaffney and Jamie O'Hara. It comes after Katie was seen proudly showing off the results of her 'painful' botched Brazilian Bum Lift while on the White Isle. Heading to the beach for a spot of sunbathing on Wednesday, the star left little to the imagination in a skimpy coral bikini with a black spotted print as she soaked up the sun. Katie showed off her famous cleavage in the revealing two-piece as she relaxed on the sand before heading to the ocean for a dip. Katie recently shared that her BBL proved to be her most 'painful' procedure, after jetting to Turkey for the botched surgery. Opening up to Katherine Ryan on her What's My Age Again? podcast last week, she said: 'I tried that BBL abroad where they take your own fat and put it in your bum. It was so painful. And it just did not look right on me.' Katie revealed the procedure took place in Turkey, but despite the painful experience, it hasn't diminished her enthusiasm for having cosmetic work done abroad. 'I would never have surgery in England again. Ever, ever,' she confessed. 'I'd always have it abroad.' Over the years, Katie has had at least 16 boob jobs, three rhinoplasties and two facelifts. Since arriving in Ibiza, Katie has caught up with famous pals including Wayne at his O Beach club, Dean Gaffney and Jamie O'Hara. The star was also seen partying with Conor McGregor at the Ibiza hotspot, with the MMA star going onto floor a partygoer with two punches at the infamous Pacha nightclub during his wild night out. Katie previously addressed her shrinking figure back in May in a post for her worried fans on Snapchat. She said: 'Yes I've lost weight. Yes that what I've wanted to do, I've wanted to lose weight. 'Because the past three, four years ago when I broke my feet and I was in a wheelchair for 10 months because they said I'd never walk again, and obviously you put weight on being in a wheelchair. 'And then I did all the IVF stuff, that also puts on weight. So yeah I did put on weight and I hated it, I felt uncomfortable and it wasn't me.' Last month, Katie branded herself 'ugly and disgusting' as she watched back video footage of herself undergoing plastic surgery in Turkey. In January, the mother-of-five flew abroad for 'tweaks' to her sixth £10,000 face lift and documented the trip for a new YouTube video. Filming herself reacting to the clips, she looked at herself getting prepared for theatre and mused: 'I'm so ugly there - that was before my surgery.' She admitted that the team of nurses 'don't always understand English', but revealed she was excited in the buildup because she 'loves being put to sleep.' Reflecting on her appearance pre-surgery, she said she looked 'very skinny and gaunt' and marvelled at the size of her breasts, revealing she plans to have more surgery on her assets in the future. Watching herself signing the consent form she confessed: 'I'm not not reading, just signing, I want to get in and get surgery done,' before adding: 'I actually look really fake and disgusting.' Katie, who was also getting a mini lift on her nose said she ignored the doctor's warnings about potential scarring and was just eager to get in and have her surgery. After undergoing the tweaks to her facelift and nose, the surgery wasn't finished for Katie. She had planned to get her ears pinned back to match her new taut visage, but after her blood pressure dropped during the surgery, the doctors advised she get the procedure the following day under local anesthetic. Watching herself getting the procedure, she insisted: 'It didn't hurt at all!' adding, 'but the question is - am I done?' Examining her face in the video, Katie continued: 'I do like how I look, it makes me want to have more now. 'It's so bad why am I watching this? I still think there's room now to pull more [skin]'. Speaking on The Louis Theroux Podcast last year, Katie explained that she has never been happy with her body. She said: 'I always said I haven't got body dysmorphia but there's definitely something, I don't know what it is... 'I've never looked in the mirror and thought I'm pretty or whatever.' However, despite having had at least six face lifts, Katie insists that she is not scared of aging. She said: 'I'm not afraid of getting old: I like getting old because you become wiser. But with the face and that I just think if there's something to tweak it's just easy to do.'
