[@k9maiden5]

I agree with Joannlynne! I am 77 and up until I was 70 I had very few wrinkles. There is something to be said about aging gracefully. There was a time when I was vain too and did not want to lose by perfect figure and pretty face. Then I became a strong Christian and found that vanity is a sin. My mother had beautiful skin until she passed away at 94. I did too but as the good doctor said, the sun will destroy your skin. I loved the look of a great tan when I was younger, it looked so good with my blonde hair and blue eyes, but I was an athlete and out in the sun a lot. I'm just happy my granddaughters don't sun bath. As for breast implants, I did the opposite, I had a breast reduction in 2000 and it was the best thing I ever did.

[@cold9168]

permanent filler. The product was medical grade silicon and it was done in a plastic surgeon's office by an expert injector. The staff highly recommended it and said it would save me money in the long run. I had no problems or issues UNTIL I asked for a little more in my upper lip. It ended up covering my upper teeth and made my smile look strange- especially in pictures. Next came the correction surgery that really fu&%ed up me up! The scar from the lip shave surgery pulled my upper lip down like a garbage bag when you tighten the string (when I smiled). Needless to say, my smile has pretty much been ruined from where it started. The countless steroid (Kenalog) injections in my upper lip, three lip lift surgeries (by a new doctor) and massaging the scar on my lip have improved things but I will never have the pretty smile I once had, and it has been 13 years. Moral of the story: don't do anything you can't back up from. Second moral of the story: learn the art of restraint; too much of a good thing might take you over the edge. Third: you are good enough just as you are!

[@jessicachristine310]

I had my si lip injections cut out from the inside of my mouth by Dr. Yi in Encino, CA. Several months later he took out a slice of excess skin under my nose where my phylum had stretched out like the Grinch. I was very very happy with Dr. Yi’s work. His micro stitch sutures heal to invisible.

Since I started watching your channel, I have changed my aesthetic treatment choices. I now wearSPF 50 every day, use a sun hat or a sunbrella, scaled back the Botox to a minimum, stopped getting filler, got PDO threads, upped my skincare to optimize for my skin type, stopped falling for specials at the med spa, started a small amount of hormones, and started really thinking intelligently about what I was doing. Finding a good practitioner has been essential. Thank you so much for all your helpful information. I appreciate your in-depth explanations. Now I look 10 years younger. I’m 45, and people think I’m in my early thirties. Thank you so much! I went from overfilled, puffy looking Hollywood housewife to someone that looks young, healthy and well proportioned. Worst procedures I have gotten? Years of too much filler in the lips and cheeks, causing a heavy,sagging lower face and downturned lip corners. A lot of med spas and plastic surgeons offices would just tell me to buy more syringes of filler. I can have my picture taken now and I look great,I recognize myself and look natural. Saving for a facelift to really turn back the clock and help undo 15 years of filler use/abuse. Also found a provider that said no to fillers of any kind at this point, gave me a realistic projection of what Nova threads could do, and what the limitations were. Thank goodness there are people out there who aren’t looking for the quickest way to make buck, but give you options and ideas🎉

@@AmbientSoundVibes Huge game changer was Nova threads. They are fairly expensive, but the outcome has been great. Also, I exercise like my life depends on it- I think you can get a ton of procedures, and you'll definitely see an improvement, but you have to put in a lot of work to keep your body looking great. I know people that try and lipo their way to a better body and the results are always limited, and usually less than what they had been expecting. None of us are perfect, and we are probably far more critical of ourselves than we are of others. So, I'm not where I want to be completely, but I'm feeling really confident.

[@pkirkey6932]

I have to say that this video helped confirm that I’m pretty happy with the condition of my 71-year old skin and face. I have been playing with makeup for almost 60 years and, in that time, I have developed some skills that compensate for imperfections like disappearing eyebrows and uneven lips. It really doesn’t take much. The only procedure I might consider is some skin resurfacing around the marionette area which in my case aren’t even lines but more like a bit of crazing on either side of my chin. Good nutrition, adequate hydration and sunscreen may be literally saving my skin.

[@moniqueengleman873]

I am feeling the same way at 63. I came into some money and thought I might get a tune up. The more I know, the less I need a tune up.

I has threads done that were meant to lift my face. These threads had special anchors that were meant to maintain their position. They created a horrible inflammatory response that left me looking disfigured. I aged 20 hearts overnight. some of the threads also developed scar tissue over them which game me skin a bumpy appearance. A year later, I had a deep plane face lift and the doctor removed the existing threads. Years later, I am finally happy with my appearance.

[@steveth1000]

My wife was told at 52 by her cosmetic surgeon that threads would only last 18 months to 2 years and he would guarantee she would be back for a mid facelift. She went with the facelift as it was done in Malaysia it only cost 3.5k Australian. 11 years later my wife still looks younger and fresher than those her age.

[@LauraB.335]

Low carb, high fat helps with cellulite. It’s the low fat craze that has lead to a lot of women, even thin women, to have cellulite. Check out Dr. Elizabeth Bright on this. Many who have done the ketogenic or carnivore diets have also had their gray hair start to grow back in their original color. All of the processed foods, vegetable/seed oils, and grains we eat have really done a number on our bodies. What we attribute to aging is often at least partially, if not completely, due to diet. For example, while brown spots do come from sun damage, they also come from inside and AGEs caused by the food we eat, and many have seen them lighten by eating low carb. Other things: glycated and aging skin, loose skin (fasting and autophagy help with this). Also sorts of chronic skin conditions: cystic acne, psoriasis, eczema, skin tags, rosacea have all disappeared from eating a low carb diet and getting rid of insulin resistance/inflammation.

[@PeachesSkinCare]

Dr R🧡 Thank you for touching on all of these procedures. I want to yell at the screen when I see people recommending these. I see so many of them every day and the results are typically not good. Men and women are typically unhappy as you said. I see scars and track marks and countless infections. For me it’s just wiser to try natural alternatives first. The skin was not meant to be burned or have needles poked in it. Another issue is the fact that so may estheticians think they are physicians and do these procedures when they have no idea of what they are doing. In my opinion, if an aesthetician is truly a Master, she’s going to teach you how to do things naturally without pills or procedures. When and if you need a procedure, he or she’s going to send you to someone like you, a professional board certified cosmetic surgeon. Most importantly, we need to teach people to love who they are, that it is normal to have a wrinkle is normal to not look like everyone else and it is normal to not have absolutely smooth perfect skin. Aging is a beautiful gift. Thank you Dr R 🙌🏼🍑🧡Lisa

Dr. Rajani I enjoy your show because it amazes me to see what people can have done to their face. I am 70 and have always had a youthful face, so I haven’t wanted to do anything to it. That said, at 35 I was in a serious auto accident and hit my forehead on the steering wheel, opening it from above brows to 2” up my scalp. As soon as my mother got the call that I was in the emergency room with head injury, she called a plastic surgeon who had done several medical (not esthetic) work on her. He met us at the emergency room and sewed up my gaping wound. Nowadays it is still in no way apparent unless you put your eye about an inch from my face! So, hooray for plastic surgeon who CAN almost do miracles! And hooray for you and the information you share. ❤👍👩🏻‍🎨

I don’t think face yoga and massage are going to help per se…but general exercise will for sure. I don’t think Dr. Raj is nixing fillers or Botox at all-just advising caution in some areas.

Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water! Lots of little tweaks can add up to immense satisfaction. Good luck😊🌼

Hi Dr :) I enjoy your channel. Please keep posting all this amazing and interesting content. I've been working with plastic surgeons, dermatologist and wellness Doctors for the past ten years. I was picked as a model multiple times, so I had the chance to try most of these treatments. The ones that left me with permanent scars were the plasma pen (around my eyes) and Fraxel (jawline). I had to be treated with peels and laser which improved the scars but they never faded completely. I have very fair skin, plus I have rosacea. Thank you for been so straight forward and informative.

Plasma fibroblasting is one of the most effective treatments I've done to my skin. An FDA approved machine and a highly trained esthetician at a med spa did perform my procedure though. Maybe that was the difference? 4 years later and my non-surgical face and neck looks great & I'm very satisfied.

@@kokolatte825 standard microneedling should be fine for your skin. With RF (radio frequency) microneedling there is high heat and too many variables that could cause damage (such as the practitioner using too deep of a setting for the needles) so it's riskier. If you are prone to broken capillaries or don't want to lose fat on your face those are the 2 main reasons I would stick to regular microneedling!

They make summer driving gloves for hands now with 100% UV protection but always include your hands. I can have the brown spots taken care of with IPL's but the wrinkling from sun and evironmental damage from not using gloves when working can never be taken care of.

I’ve had a lot of things done, lasers, Botox, fillers etc.. and I can actually sense their lack of confidence in themselves! It’s a total crapshoot!
