(NewsNation) — A prominent plastic surgeon says conservative women are being unfairly targeted over a new beauty trend dubbed “Mar-a-Lago Face,” which has reportedly become the most in-demand plastic surgery look.
Dr. Sheila Nazarian, host of Netflix’s “Skin Decision,” discussed the phenomenon during a NewsNation interview, responding to a New York Post report that described the look as “a curated blend of full lips, chiseled cheekbones, wide eyes and smooth, taut foreheads that never wrinkle in worry.”
The surgeon suggested the term represents an attack on conservative women, noting that she observed well-groomed attendees at recent political events who “take care of themselves” and “look great.”

“This is the first time I’ve kind of seen this kind of attack on conservative women, saying you have ‘Mar-a-Lago Face,'” Nazarian said Friday on NewsNation’s “On Balance.”
The New York Post coined the term as a successor to “Instagram Face,” describing it as the current, most popular cosmetic surgery trend. The look emphasizes enhanced facial features while maintaining a polished, professional appearance.
Nazarian, who has practiced cosmetic enhancement for years, said that regional preferences influence beauty standards. She said that what appears normal in some cities might seem excessive in others, with fuller lips being commonplace in certain areas.
“But there is an aesthetic, and there is a resetting of what is normal in certain parts of the country. So maybe fuller lips is what everybody has in certain cities,” she said.
