Welcome to the world of aesthetic medicine. In the first episode, we meet Dr Darren McKeown and his husband, Tom Cronin. Immersed in their world, we get a behind-the-scenes insight into the running of their aesthetic clinic in Glasgow, which carries out cosmetic procedures such as fillers, laser, botox and full surgical facelifts.

Meeting the faces behind the procedures, we hear from patients who tell us why they come to the clinic. One such patient is Janet, whose heartwarming story sees her undergo an amazing physical and mental transformation. We also meet the clinic staff that work with Darren and Tom to care for the huge range of patients who walk through the clinic doors each day.

Darren and Tom also lift the lid on their personal lives, as 2022 shapes up to be their biggest year together yet. Following their marriage, they plan to have a baby via surrogate in America, and we follow their journey as they prepare for parenthood. We also explore their most ambitious project to date - building the world’s most luxurious cosmetic surgery hospital in the heart of Glasgow. Show less
