Thai dermatologist Dr. Dissapong Panithaporn, also known as Dr. Joe, observes a significant shift in Asian beauty trends, particularly in Thailand. The younger generation, comprising men and women in their mid-twenties, is moving away from plastic surgery and fillers. Instead, they are embracing a more natural approach focused on skin longevity, prevention, and preservation. This represents a departure from previous trends centered on anti-aging, correction, or repair. Dr. Joe shared these insights from his Bangkok clinic, The Demis, highlighting the evolving aesthetic preferences in the region.
