Conversations about Confidence and Cosmetics

Episode 20 of Skin, Self and Everything Else is here, and we’re celebrating this milestone with a guest who brings equal parts charm, expertise, and unmistakable Cajun flair. In Conversation with a Cajun about Cosmetics, we sit down with the incomparable Holly Caplan—Louisiana native, LSU alum, industry leader, podcast host, and all-around powerhouse in the world of aesthetics.

If you know Holly, you know she is a spark plug. If you don’t know Holly… well, you’re about to.

From Cajun Country to Cosmetic Leadership

Holly grew up in Louisiana, and she wears her roots proudly. From the moment she joins the conversation, her Southern warmth sets the tone. Whether she’s talking football, confidence, or injectables, Holly has a way of blending humor with wisdom that makes you feel like you’re chatting with an old friend.

She and Dr. Turner dive right into the important topics—namely, the very recent buzz surrounding Lane Kiffin’s new appointment as football coach. Opinions? Oh, they’ve got them. Plenty of them.

And while Holly and Dr. Turner break down the coaching controversy, Brandon… well, Brandon is laser-focused on the cheerleading outfits. Naturally.

Holly’s Mission: Talking Confidence

Beyond football and her love of New Orleans, Holly is the host of Talking Confidence, her own podcast dedicated to empowering women in leadership and personal growth. She shares how the show came to life, what confidence means to her, and why authenticity matters now more than ever—especially in the aesthetics space.

Her leadership role at Merz Aesthetics gives her a unique vantage point on how confidence and cosmetic treatments intersect. Holly talks about what it’s like being a woman leading in a competitive, innovative industry and how she champions both patients and professionals through education, clarity, and connection.

Aesthetic Wisdom: Radiesse & Ultherapy

Of course, what would a Skin, Self and Everything Else episode be without some high-value aesthetic insights?

Holly brings the goods:

Radiesse

She breaks down the benefits, the science, and—most importantly—how to communicate its value and mechanism of action to patients. From collagen stimulation to firming and contouring, Holly gives actionable advice providers can use right away.

Ultherapy

If your patients have ever asked about skin tightening, this segment is gold. Holly talks through how she helps patients can combine Radiesse and Ultherapy for best outcomes.

Her teaching style is clear, confident, and incredibly practical—exactly what you’d expect from someone who’s mastered both the business and the patient-care sides of aesthetics.
