Today, I’m joined by my friend Dr. Kate Dee, a Yale-educated MD, business owner, and the author of Med Spa Mayhem—a revealing exposé of the medical aesthetics industry. She’s also the host of the Med Spa Mayhem Podcast and founder of Glow MediSpa in Seattle.

I first met Kate on a weekly ski bus to Crystal Mountain, and talked about everything from her Ivy League background to her passion for medical aesthetics. What started as a curiosity led her to build a thriving aesthetics business—growing to two locations—all while uncovering serious industry problems that most people don’t realize exist.

In this episode, Kate shares what’s really happening in the world of med spas, from unqualified practitioners to fake products and risky treatments. We also talk about:

• Why Botox parties at people’s homes might not be the best idea.
• The process of writing her book and how it became a major credibility booster.
• Her next big mission—creating a national certification to help consumers find safe, legitimate med spas.
• The rise of weight loss drugs like Ozempic and why she believes they could replace bariatric surgery.

If you’ve ever considered an aesthetic treatment, starting a business, or want to hear about the challenges of an exploding industry, you won’t want to miss this conversation!
