About this episode
This episode was recorded at ICCE (International Cosmetic Congress and Exhibition) in Cairo, Egypt, in September 2025. Dr Jake and David were invited as the conference's resident podcast, the first time a podcast has held that role at an aesthetic conference.
In this ICCE episode, plastic surgeon Dr Mustafa Narwan introduces biohacking and explains how he brings a holistic approach to his patients across his clinics in Germany and the UAE.
He shares how he combines treatments to suit each patient, why thorough consultations matter, and how lifestyle changes such as exercise, diet and sleep help patients prepare for and recover from surgery.
We also discuss his own daily routine and supplements, dealing with jet lag, integrating biohacking into clinical practice, controversial peptides and the evidence behind them, and common misconceptions about aesthetic treatments.
