747: Protein Power: Animal vs Plant-Based

This episode of Beauty Bytes with Dr. Kay is a powerful Five Minute Friday focused on one of the most underrated beauty nutrients: protein. As a facial plastic surgeon and longevity expert, Dr. Kay unpacks why protein is essential for glowing skin, collagen support, and lasting results from aesthetic treatments. Whether you're investing in lasers, Botox, or biostimulators like Sculptra and Radiesse, your treatments can only go so far without the internal building blocks your body needs to regenerate — and protein is at the core. Dr. Kay explains the difference between complete and incomplete proteins, how to structure your intake throughout the day, and why women over 40, those on GLP-1s, and patients navigating menopause must prioritize this macronutrient. You’ll learn how protein influences your skin’s ability to respond to injectables, maintain facial volume, and repair after treatments like microneedling or threads. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to elevate their beauty and wellness game from the inside out. Your beauty Rx this week: protein, protein, protein. Think of it as your most powerful internal skincare step.
