Welcome to Snip and SIP, the podcast, where we cut through the noise about plastic surgery while sipping our drink of the day. I'm your host, Doctor Scottsdale from my real name, Doctor Marta. We're going to talk about funny. We're going to talk about trends. We're going to spill the tea and all the secrets.
00;00;21;04 - 00;00;38;27

All right, guys, welcome back to episode number 14. Big one for almost as old as Alondra, right? Just two years younger. Yeah. You wish. Anyways, so who am I joined by today? To my left is the social media coordinator.
00;00;39;03 - 00;01;06;09
Unknown
Your family member, Lonnie or Alondra? You. Lonnie. There's no Lonnie, okay, yes there is. It's 14 times now, but Alondra, Eloy and I, we've talked about this. Alondra, Alo and I. Anyway, she's like, she doesn't even know how to spell her own name. Okay. And by my lovely. Right, Jeanette Turner, Scottsdale. Yes. My lovely wife. And so what's your drink of the day, guys?
00;01;06;12 - 00;01;25;23
Unknown
Today is going to be a fun little twist on, tequila. Pineapple. So we have a dashing rim with the fun little straw. All right. Okay. Cheers, guys. Salud. 1414 episodes. It's kind of crazy. It's been a long time.
00;01;25;25 - 00;01;43;08
Unknown
We got to get some. Wow, that takes a really long time for that. Yeah, yeah, I feel like it's really hard. Yeah, and I'm not used to that, so, Okay, so now we know what you do in your free time. Don't suck. That's what I don't do. So you heard it here first, right, guys? That would be.
00;01;43;08 - 00;02;08;18
Unknown
We would have issues. Yeah. I wouldn't be married to this one. Well, I don't know what you what your anatomy is, I don't judge, I don't be a dude. Yeah. All right. So what are we. What's the topic of the day. What's the topic of the day. Alondra. Today's topic is you have to look surgical reversals I don't know if you guys remember but I have a very short memory span.
00;02;08;20 - 00;02;37;21
Unknown
But yes memory or attention. No memory not attention span. Memory span. And like Dori. But yes, reversals on plastic surgery. Okay, so what do you think about reversing plastic surgery? Nurse Scottsdale, since you've partaken in the surgical endeavors? I don't think I've ever had a reversal of any kind of surgery. I had additions to my surgery, but not a reversal.
00;02;37;29 - 00;03;01;25
Unknown
I mean, I think everything is doable, but how do they look afterwards if you're trying to move or something? I don't that's my question. Well, you know, as the surgeon and probably the only surgeon here, reversals, probably one of the hardest things we do because you're asking for something to be undone. That was done. And it's like, hey, I built a house.
00;03;01;25 - 00;03;21;07
Unknown
Hey, you know what? I don't like it. Take it down, but make me the house. That used to be there. How do you do that? Yeah. When you've already changed the anatomy. It's a hard, hard ask. Is it doable? Yes, to a certain degree. But you have to understand, in order to undo something, you kind of have to destroy.
00;03;21;07 - 00;03;36;17
Unknown
It means you have to take it apart, put it into its parts and pieces and see what you can use and not use, and then get a result that someone's going to be happy with. So probably a lot of scars I'm assuming. Well I would say it's not necessarily a lot of scars. It just has to be.
00;03;36;17 - 00;03;58;27
Unknown
Well intention scars. And what I mean by that is. Yes you can reverse a lot of things but it's going to take scarring. And are you willing to accept the scars even though they might be long fine lines for a reversal. You haven't. Why do you think people want to get it reversed in the first place. Like what are some reasons.
00;03;58;29 - 00;04;36;15
Unknown
Well let's say I took your implants out or your implants out. Why would you want them out. I want first of all. But I mean I think I do have a lot of issues. What are issues? I mean, if you don't know, people are up to and also to got smaller. Okay. So size and how about breast implant illness that which has been a big topic as well I think you know the when we get into the topic of buy right breast implant on this one, as plastic surgeons we are trying to change the misinformation that's out there.
00;04;36;15 - 00;05;12;08
Unknown
So we don't call it breast implant illness. We call it systemic symptoms of breast implants because they're systemic symptoms. People report symptoms all over their body associated with breast implants. This past. So the thing that you have to understand when we're talking about breast implants is that all medical devices have issues. It's not just breast implants. But now with the advent of social media and society, the people that complain or yell the loudest are the people that get hurt the most.
00;05;12;11 - 00;05;33;09
Unknown
Right? When do you sit here and say that? That the people that are unhappy with anything, this restaurant sucks and they start screaming it versus somebody says, oh my God, I love this restaurant. Well, people look and pay attention to them. Probably not, but whoever complains the most gets the most. Now at a restaurant, if somebody complains, what are you going to do?
00;05;33;12 - 00;05;53;15
Unknown
They're going to put their attention on them and get it fixed and correct. And if somebody is like, oh my God, I love your restaurant, you're like, cool, thanks. Now get out so we can get the next person. M tell me I'm wrong. Yeah. Basically. Right. Yeah. I mean, they're really, really quick to write reviews on things that we don't like versus things that we like.
00;05;53;18 - 00;06;14;02
Unknown
So what would you say people are saying about implant illness that like what are some symptom. Yeah, because I know I've heard some things, but it's like it's a bunch of different things that I've heard. So and it's true. And this is the hard part okay. When you're talking about systemic symptoms of breast implants it's systemic symptoms I'm tired.
00;06;14;05 - 00;06;41;11
Unknown
Oh my gosh I don't remember things. I've gained weight I've lost weight. My joints hurt. I'm always tired. Maybe I have yeah I have I have a rash. But you can't figure out what it is. Those get those kind of symptoms get associated to breast implants. But can't they just be anything exact? It could be anything. And the hard part is the science that we are doing is plastic surgeons.
00;06;41;11 - 00;07;06;10
Unknown
Whether it's doing heavy metal examinations of taking tissue from women that want their implants removed, we send it to the laboratory, we send the implants at labratory, we check blood levels, we check, specimen levels. And they're really not different than what they were for somebody who didn't have implants. But people are like oh my God I have all these issues.
00;07;06;12 - 00;07;33;17
Unknown
It's these heavy metals. It's this. And yes it takes heavy metals in order to produce implants, to make them safe, to make them sterile, to make sure that the chemical properties of the silicone are stable. So now do the symptoms go away after the excellent. Some people will sit here and say, yes. And I personally taking care of patients who hey, I think I have issues with the implants.
00;07;33;17 - 00;07;53;12
Unknown
I want them out. I've tested everything. Great. We take them out six months later, they're hey, you know what? I took out my implants. I still have the same symptoms. They didn't get any worse. They didn't get any better. I want my implants back. And so now you paid money to put them in? You paid money to take them out, and now you're paying money to put them back in again.
00;07;53;14 - 00;08;13;23
Unknown
I try to keep an even keel. I'm neither for implants or against implants. I just want people to be happy. If you want them out, I'll help you if you want them. And I will help you. But I try to be honest and upfront with patients in terms of expectation. I put it really simply. If you think you're going to have issues with implants, I say please never, ever, ever get implants.
00;08;13;25 - 00;08;31;20
Unknown
Really simple. If you're like, hey, I think I want implants, I think they're going to be fine for me. Even though I read about this, if you go in with a good mindset, I think you end up with a great result. If you go in with a bad mindset, you're going to have issues. Is that different techniques exploitation?
00;08;31;23 - 00;08;57;12
Unknown
Well, if you're talking about excellence and specific. Lee the science because we've as plastic surgeons have taken this very seriously and there's studies at different locations all over the United States of studying the difference between somebody who's like, have implants. I take out the implant and that's it. There's people that will take out the implants, take out the scar tissue, and then there's the fancy word of where you're taking out the implants.
00;08;57;12 - 00;09;20;08
Unknown
You're taking out all of the scar tissue and you're taking normal tissue out all in one piece called end block capsule ectomy. That is a cancer term. I want you guys to understand a true end block cap. Select them means I am removing the implant. I am removing the scar tissue. Am removing your breast tissue. I'm removing muscle.
00;09;20;08 - 00;09;45;06
Unknown
I am removing ribs. That is the true definition of an end block. Cap selected me. That is only done for cancer operations because you worry that the cancer has spread beyond the borders of what it is, so you are taking everything normal around it. And when surgeons do this and the surgeons that charge a lot of money to do this, the incision that you get is like this line.
00;09;45;07 - 00;10;05;13
Unknown
It's literally from here all the way across. So like a mess. Like to me it is a mess to me because that's the access that you need in order to remove the whole implant in its entirety without touching the remaining tissue. The surgeons that do it through a smaller incision. But as you're bringing it out, you're spilling tissue.
00;10;06;00 - 00;10;27;25
Unknown
So there's always going to be some quote unquote contamination, but you end up left with a huge scar like you're a cancer patient. So true exploitation is not really an end book. No okay. So let me get the misconception of let go and get in and then block. Do you get it. Yeah. Do you get a bigger scar when you explain it.
00;10;27;25 - 00;10;54;13
Unknown
Or is it the same exact scar. Depends on what the patient wants. This is a conversation I have with my patients that want their implants. I'm like, you want their implants? You want all the scar tissue? Do you want me to risk damaging your nerves because your scar tissue is literally stuck to your axilla, where there's all the nerves that allow you to move your arms, and we can sit here and kind of chase that or create another scar in your armpit in order to remove it's more safely, but it's not worth it.
00;10;54;14 - 00;11;20;12
Unknown
We've, like I said, as plastic surgeons, we've taken this very seriously. We've done studies and show legitimately there is no difference between the patient who gets the implant taken out and the patient who gets the implant, plus all of the scar tissue or the capsule up. No difference at all. But people read these blogs or go to these posts or whatever and says, oh my God, you have to go see this doctor and do an unblock capsule.
00;11;20;12 - 00;11;44;23
Unknown
Ectomy the science shows there is no difference in terms of some people get improvements. They get improvements, whether it's just the implant or it's the implant in the scar tissue. But why would you want to traumatize your entire body and destroy and disfigure it. Unless you really knew for sure that it was going to fix a problem.
00;11;44;29 - 00;12;08;12
Unknown
Yeah. And also like esthetically when you get an eggplant or when you take out the implant, you're like it's like a sack now. Right? Because you stretched it and everything. So does that get fixed like, well do you do like a lift as well every time or is it like how does that work? You're talking about elective surgery.
00;12;08;15 - 00;12;27;00
Unknown
So it's it's what you pay for. If you go to a restaurant you're like, oh my God, what do I get? The truffle butter? Do I get the fries? Do I get the salad? I mean, I would think to even looking at something that was for once and I was like, psyche, you know, it's just more like liberal reasons.
00;12;27;00 - 00;12;49;13
Unknown
I think it might be that might make me sick just looking at, oh, like the little raisins. I mean, some people like little reasons. I mean, it's true. I mean, you're not talking about eating the raisins, guys, but but like I said, when it comes to everything we do, you understand it is elective. There is no medical necessity to removing the implants.
00;12;49;16 - 00;13;12;28
Unknown
Science hasn't come. And maybe in the future, Will says that implants cause x, y, z. It took them. God knows how long to sit here and say smoking leads to cancer. They could say it could lead to it, but they couldn't prove it. And once they prove that, that's when the lawsuits came out. Right now. Question. Since we are talking about B, I, systemic symptoms.
00;13;13;00 - 00;13;41;04
Unknown
Yes. Breast implants. Yeah. Is it more from sealing or silicone implants or is it both or is it what. Because I that's what I don't know when you talk about breast implant issues there is no delineation between saline or silicone. And it's just the implant. You understand that there's situations where, hey, I have a prosthetic implant, like a hip or a knee or a shoulder that have issues similar to this.
00;13;41;07 - 00;14;05;08
Unknown
So it's not just implants like breast implants. Anything that's foreign in your body, cause your body to have a reaction. Could it be systemic? Yes. Could be local. Yes. And this is the thing about science. Everybody's body is uniquely different. Your ability to fight infections. If if I had a cold and they spread it to you guys, maybe I don't have sick, but you guys get really sick.
00;14;05;09 - 00;14;23;22
Unknown
Think of Covid. If everybody had Covid, did everybody have the same reaction? No, it's the same virus. But how it affects people varies. It's the same thing with implants. You both have implants. Could you sit here and say, hey, I'm tired, I'm fatigued, I'm all this to the implants? No, but I've known both of you. Maybe not you before implant.
00;14;23;22 - 00;14;45;17
Unknown
I knew you before implant. You're still the same person. Your brain fog is still your brain fog. I've always been brain fog to think about it before the implants. So I sit here and they happen to be related, right? Your sister. So it's probably more fog. So, so so from that standpoint, it's it's it's hard to sit here and to blame just that.
00;14;45;17 - 00;15;03;21
Unknown
But like I said, I'm not for implants. I'm not against implants. I'm just for people feeling better about themselves. You know, our mission is what we inspire people to be their own kind of beautiful, whatever that means to them. Right? It's not about implants. It's little boobies and big boobies. Correct. If you have big ones and you want them small, we can help.
00;15;03;21 - 00;15;26;27
Unknown
If you have small ones and you want to be big, we can help. So what would you say is the most common concern after the next plant? It's always going to be the appearance. It's always, always going to be the appearance. And I tell patients you end up with a better result. If you're going to sit here and say, hey, I want the implants, the scar tissue removed, if you're going to have a left, because then I don't have to make a big long scar under your breast.
00;15;26;29 - 00;15;49;00
Unknown
I just use the incisions that you have to do a lift to get the the tissue out that you don't want. But again that costs money. There's surgeons that are charging anywhere from 30 to $100,000 to do an end block capsule ectomy a 100,000 everything out. But remember when I'm saying and block, I'm talking about the implant and scar tissue.
00;15;49;00 - 00;16;07;24
Unknown
I'm not talking about them removing muscles that removing ribs, then removing skin. It's literally just removing the capsule scar tissue and the implant, and that's it. And 100 grand and not making it look cute. Nope. That's just doing that. But hopefully for a hundred grand you're like, hey, you're going to remove it. You're going to make it pretty.
00;16;07;27 - 00;16;31;09
Unknown
You hope so. But like I said, everybody's kind of different. Yeah, well okay. So besides implants that are being reversed, what other trend have you guys noticed that. Banner shelf. Yeah. There's the other shelf that the other the cherries in the with the rack. That's supposed to be a shelf, right. Yeah. The shelf. So, I call it more of speed bumps.
00;16;31;09 - 00;17;05;13
Unknown
The screw caps on your body, speed bumps in the front, speed bumps in the back. Right. Little the fun little hills. You know, I think when we talk about, like, again, reversal of, like, your butt. And I think I've done one can like the last seven years. And she's like I love it. But now where I live, I get so much attention that it makes me uncomfortable because she's in a very conservative place and she already had a nice peach, but she's like, hey, I just want to procure a little tweak.
00;17;05;13 - 00;17;31;16
Unknown
So we did that a ton. But when we do IBS or when I do about the goal is about what you remove, not what you put in. So we didn't put a lot, but a year, year and a half later she's like, I need to make it smaller. She's like, I love it, but it's just I get so many eyeballs of people staring at me in this smaller place in the upper Midwest that she's like, I just can't like people are looking me at the store and like, enough.
00;17;31;16 - 00;18;00;14
Unknown
The kid's like checking out the booty. Yeah. And it just, it stands out because again, it's it's a lot. And it's not that it's bad. It's just where she lives. It's a conservative place. She doesn't want that anymore. So change your mind. Yeah. If you're so so can you. Reversible. Absolutely. But it takes, special methods that you sit here and you try to avoid scars because you can reduce anything by removing skin.
00;18;00;17 - 00;18;25;20
Unknown
But now you're talking about a scar that's not hatable. You wear a swimsuit and yes, it'll get camouflaged, but once you're naked, you can't see it. Oh, that's true, because your skin stretching. So wait, what do you guys think? Because you know how Kincaid's butt is different, and Chloe's like, it was a lot bigger than what it is now, but they were also bigger themselves, I feel like.
00;18;25;21 - 00;18;48;08
Unknown
No. Yeah. Like, obviously, you know, they must've done so. They just shrunk because they still have big, but they still do. But it's like significantly smaller. See a side by side. We'll put a picture up. But the side by side is crazy. Like, oh, they probably showed you the Kim K when she was like post-pregnancy and her ass was literally like bigger than all three of us put together.
00;18;48;10 - 00;19;12;24
Unknown
Let me look. And then now she maybe looks like North Scottsdale. Yeah. Like I would still say curvy, but not huge there. And so from that perspective, I think that was just more weight loss than it truly was like bowing and trying to skin tighten that. But what you can't do, but it's it's kind of a hard ask because you have to lipo from everywhere.
00;19;12;24 - 00;19;29;27
Unknown
You can't just be like, great, I just want to take it from the projection or I want to take it from my hip dips because your skin has to shrink evenly. Yeah, well, I just I don't know, because if you like, you're like, oh my God, you had to have surgery. No, because Khloe's two was massive. And then it got so tiny.
00;19;29;27 - 00;19;49;02
Unknown
But she lost a lot of weight too. And she goes to the gym. So I'm sure because it's the gym, right. Wah. Yeah. Allegedly. I go to the gym here in bed and allegedly here and there. I pass by just like I go to the gym every day. Yeah. You know guys. Oh, I wish people were more honest.
00;19;49;03 - 00;20;11;07
Unknown
We talked about that in our last podcast that we wish I my people ask me, like, I haven't been to the gym and I don't know at these seven years. That's not true. How long have you had them? The thing in your, the tunnel? Yeah. How long has it been there? Three years. I pay for a membership of, what, $75 a month?
00;20;11;10 - 00;20;35;16
Unknown
She's used to twice, guys. She's like, I want a Tony, I want a Tony. I'm gonna start working out, knowing that is available. And. And I get to her birthday. And it was not inexpensive. And she's like, oh, it's just like her total membership costs more than my membership to a year does for two months is more than what I pay for an entire year of my gym membership that I actually use 90% of the.
00;20;35;16 - 00;21;00;14
Unknown
Where is your peloton? I haven't seen that in a while to oh it's upstairs. Oh yeah. I give us another gift that hurts my butt. Yeah. How do you like carrots? Don't you have padding on your butt? I do, but so hurts. There's there's there's there's like, okay, if I'm going to start working out, maybe don't the next podcast maybe say I started working out.
00;21;00;20 - 00;21;22;22
Unknown
You started. That isn't okay. I'm just going to keep my mouth shut. That's it. I'm just I'm just gonna I'm just going to stop right there. I'm just going to stop because neither of you actually workout. I used to work out for exercising because accounts have every bit of activity you have sex or sound with right now. You know, I'm gonna check that out.
00;21;22;27 - 00;21;41;03
Unknown
I'm gonna cut it out. No, she won't cut it. I'm going to make sure of that. I'll make sure you like me to call them out. I'm gonna choke anyway, but I don't know what you're into. But please stop. Jenny, grab your man. Sick. All right, man, I'm going to choke you. Yes. What? Is that okay? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00;21;41;03 - 00;22;06;16
Unknown
They grab him, he's like, I'm going to choke you. Yeah. Like to shut up. Really like what you do anyway, guys, I thought this podcast. Look at that. Yeah. That's it. They're literally speechless. They're literally speechless. You have issues, dude. I have no issues. You have issues. Our subject which is reversal. Of surgery. We're talking about surgery.
00;22;06;16 - 00;22;25;28
Unknown
We talked about bevels. We talked about rest. Well I would say when you talk about filler that's kind of more your alley. But you've also done a lot of stretches where you're literally taking like cutting out. Yes. I think back in 2020 we had a group of patients that went and had their lips done for $99 a syringe.
00;22;26;00 - 00;22;51;29
Unknown
You're like, oh my God, where do I go and sign up? Well, you went to their house. They use product that had contamination, meaning it had bacteria in it to win. It got injected into your lips. It's like taking mold and putting inside your body up. And so it didn't do well. It got infected. People went to the hospital, people got sick, people had pus coming out of their lips, and somehow or other I took care of one patient.
00;22;51;29 - 00;23;13;22
Unknown
And next thing I know, I have an entire practice dedicated to taking care of infected lips. And even to this day, even though it's been four plus years, I still take care of patients with bad lip injections. And so, yes, you can't surgically removed certain things. And part of the art and science of plastic surgery is how do you hide the scars when somebody fucked up?
00;23;13;22 - 00;23;35;02
Unknown
Excuse my French, but that's what it is. People have totally gotten screwed. And how do you sit here and fix something that's gone bad? Usually if people have done their job and have researched the injector or the practice, you want to inject hyaluronic acid, that's where it falls into your field of expertise, right? So we can reverse it.
00;23;35;02 - 00;24;04;12
Unknown
We can, dissolve it and and no issues. But when you get injected with something you don't know, that's when you can have real problems because you can't reverse it. What products with those be do you think, as far as that, you can't radius say things like sculpture, bella feel also silicone. That used to be pretty long time ago.
00;24;04;12 - 00;24;29;24
Unknown
I mean, now people are still injecting silicone to this day and injecting it where it anywhere. Yeah. Different parts of your body. So it's called silicone 1000 or 100. I always forget people bring in from other countries and actually you can get it in the US. It's FDA approved. But here's the catch okay. This silicone is FDA approved to be injected into the eye okay.
00;24;29;26 - 00;24;56;15
Unknown
And again this is for optimal logic reasons or basically eyeball reasons. Right. But since it's FDA approved you can order it and use it quote unquote off label. That means you can inject it almost anywhere else. So people are injecting silicone into their penis. But injections they're doing but injections with it. And like I said, it's silicone.
00;24;56;15 - 00;25;23;22

It's like an implant. What is an implant to you? It creates scar tissue, a capsule around it. But this is liquid. Okay. So the silicone can migrate even though it's encapsulated. But if you get an infection, it's hard to get rid of the bloodstream. They can, if not injected properly. But this is what people will do to be like, hey, great, let me fix your hip permanently.
00;25;23;22 - 00;25;48;00
Unknown
It only cost like $3000 or $5000. It's way less than sculptor. Sculptor is another filler. Our polylactic acid. So it's an acid. Your body will basically dissolve it eventually, but because it stays there a long time, if it gets infections, it has his issues. When you talk about radius, it's calcium hydroxyapatite, which is basically a calcium based.
00;25;48;00 - 00;26;06;06
Unknown
And because it's calcium your body will eventually dissolve it, but it doesn't do it right away. The only one that's truly easily reversible is hyaluronic acid. Your body has hyaluronic acid. It already has hyaluronic acid is built into your body. But if you have it and you don't like it, you just go injected. And it basically it's like wite-out.
00;26;06;11 - 00;26;28;07
Unknown
It removes it. But there's new hyaluronic acids out there. I won't mention companies because I don't want to get canceled here, but they processes the hyaluronic acid in such a way that it's harder to get rid of. So sometimes, even though you put the white out, you can't wait it out because it's got these special properties that don't allow it for the body to dissolve it as fast.
00;26;28;07 - 00;26;57;11
Unknown
It's not as easy to accept or dissolvable, but it makes it harder, guys. So again, these are all the little nuances that we're only seeing today for issues that happened or injections that happened five, six, eight, ten years ago where people are like had filler. It should be gone by now, but some of it is still there, like some of these products actually like for the penis, when I do my magic shatter male enhancement because I don't want the product to go well, I want it to be a really long time.
00;26;57;15 - 00;27;16;18
Unknown
Right. So yeah, well, I was going to say, isn't that like one of the selling points is that it stays for a really long time? That's hard to get rid of. Yeah. But some people like for you, you metabolize products really quickly. Yeah. Like even those fancy products as opposed to lasts a long time. It lasts 6 to 8 weeks.
00;27;16;20 - 00;27;40;04
Unknown
So I have to use products that are supposed to last five years. But understand what we're talking about. Something like Belliveau, which is the only FDA approved product that's for five years. Once you inject it, you can never get rid of it. It is permanent. The reason it's five year indication with the FDA is because the body builds collagen, i.e., scar tissue, around this product.
00;27;40;04 - 00;28;07;01
Unknown
And as that collagen is there, it adds volume as your body tries to dissolve it back and forth. Eventually it shrinks, but the product itself will be there forever. It's crazy right? So so Bella feels the type of filler. Yeah. Okay. Maybe I need that for my nose. I mean, you can, but if you don't like it and it doesn't settle in the right place, well, then you're fucked.
00;28;07;03 - 00;28;29;11
Unknown
It's there forever. Unless you're doing a surgery trying to surgically remove it, i.e. lip fillers. That's usually what I end up removing is people using silicone or people putting in Bella Feld. But the non FDA approved version that you can get from China for a lot less. So there's your hot tip. If you want she products, you can get it from China.
00;28;29;14 - 00;28;52;07
Unknown
But I can't understand that if it what you're injecting is dirty or contaminated, you literally have just injected yourself with something that's going to make you very sick, and it's gonna cost you a lot more money. Yeah, I just saw a TikTok two of speaking TikTok now back on earth. Now that it's bad, thank God. No. Of like, you know how with nose fillers, like, there's a potential that you could go blind.
00;28;52;08 - 00;29;14;23
Unknown
Absolutely. It's not a potential. It's always been there. Well, that's why you don't choose to do it, right. You don't. I rather not. So you send them chances to me. So whenever you want to. Yeah, but the difference I'm going to inject real fast. It's good to do nose filler, if you know what you're doing. I've done enough rhinoplasty to know the anatomy of where the blood vessels are.
00;29;14;25 - 00;29;36;19
Unknown
Not. That doesn't mean that the risk is zero, but as long as I stay this narrow road, I should be okay. Doesn't mean that there's not a blood vessel, but you just need to be conscientious about it. Yes. Oh, yeah. So I was kind of veering off topic a little bit, but about the nose filler that that happened to this girl, but she was lucky enough to like, I don't know, like massage it.
00;29;36;19 - 00;29;56;13
Unknown
So I kind of reverse it like she, she was starting to feel like one. I starting to go blind, but she googled something like massaging it and that like, was starting to reverse the effects a little bit, and she regained a little bit of eyesight back. It was probably maybe the numbing or something that she felt, but it's not going to reverse.
00;29;56;16 - 00;30;27;17
Unknown
Or like, I don't even know what it was like, but she caught it in time, supposedly. So you can't reverse that. Then. Like once you love TikTok, but sometimes TikTok is so full of shit. Well, that's why you're myth busting right now. And again, I don't like to call people out. But, you know, I think dynamically, the, the thing when you're talking about filler and going blind and having issues is simple.
00;30;27;20 - 00;30;48;04
Unknown
The reason you start to go blind is because you inject filler into an artery, and you push it so hard that it goes retrograde. So it's literally going backwards of the way it's supposed to go into your eyeball. Your eyeball only has one artery. That's it. One. It's like you're you have one highway. If I block it, well guess what?
00;30;48;05 - 00;31;13;17
Unknown
Nobody's going that way. And the story, it's a one way bridge. One way you block it, you lose your vision forever. You have maybe a couple of hours to basically unblock, meaning you have to go and put hyaluronidase. I know a friend of mine that this happened to that he hired this very experienced injector. Literally on her second day, she injected somebody in that person limp like, oh, I'm so scared.
00;31;13;18 - 00;31;41;17
Unknown
Second day on the job. And she had been an injector for 20 years. He's a plastic surgeon, well-established. She she started working for him. She did an injectable and the patient literally went blind. That's so scary. So but he was well trained that even as it was happening, he did a cut down, meaning he literally found where the artery was made an incision on her face, found the artery, injected the hyaluronidase, and all of a sudden she's like, hey, I can see.
00;31;41;19 - 00;32;02;18
Unknown
And then like after 30s, she's like, hey, I can't see anymore. So even though he kept injecting it, it was just so much stuff that went the wrong place that she went blind. Even though he got her back, he physically got her vision back after she went literally like dark, like me covering your eye and you're like, you like, hey, great.
00;32;02;18 - 00;32;25;24
Unknown
That's it. That's a condom. That one. I want to. And he was able to get it back, I don't know filler going blind this way I don't I don't I don't take my chances I don't want I don't do rhinoplasty. I don't do that I bother you, you do them I just that's so scary. Can I sit here and I tell you the things that we do in surgery carry risk.
00;32;26;00 - 00;32;56;04
Unknown
It's whether you're you're like, gosh, well, why is the nose fillers so much more expensive than like, lips? I mean, theoretically you could go blind from lip injections if the product is injected in such a way and your blood flow anatomy varies. So it's not without risk. But that's why it costs more. Because we have to be more educated, more prepared to deal with those circumstances and be like a hawk and realize as they're happening, people usually get what's called necrosis.
00;32;56;04 - 00;33;17;14
Unknown
That's where you inject something. It goes into an artery, and that artery feeds a bunch of your skin. Once you stop it, all of a sudden the skin starts to turn black. It turns purple because the skin is literally dying. That's scary. Damn, that could happen with anything that happens in surgery. If we do a tummy tuck and and for whatever reason, you stop the blood flow.
00;33;17;14 - 00;33;38;20
Unknown
If I were to hold your wrist, both your breasts are really, really, really tight and all of a sudden just squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze and no blood flow. And with that hand would die. Your hand would literally die. And that's all it would take. Which is scary. But that's the world we live in. Scary. But like I said, everything carries risks.
00;33;38;21 - 00;33;59;03
Unknown
A rhinoplasty, nose filler. And this is where we go to the whole reversal aspect. It being prepared for the issues and understanding. It is not about being prepared for the issues, it's about anticipating where the issues can happen and how to prevent them. Not to deal with them, but to prevent them from happening. Wouldn't you agree? Yeah.
00;33;59;05 - 00;34;19;26
Unknown
How to fix them to and how to reverse them? How long would you say you have? Like, let's say you're starting. Is it during the injecting process or is it when you're going home and then it it's both like usually when you do an injection. And again it's never personally happened to me. I've seen some patients who have had it after the fact.
00;34;19;29 - 00;34;43;06
Unknown
But the first thing you report is pain out of proportion to the exam. Like you're like, gosh, this just hurts so much, okay? And the reason it hurts so much is because the first thing that dies are nerves. They are the most sensitive to blood flow, which is good. God made it that way. Right? If your nerves start to hurt some things wrong, it's just that little alert system, especially if you've been numb.
00;34;43;06 - 00;35;03;10
Unknown
Then all of a sudden you're like, gosh, this is really hurting. That should tell you something in your head right now as an injector, as a provider, you should know something is going wrong in the wrong way, and that's where you got to stop and think about it. This really just kind of keeps on like there's a bruise somewhere and it keeps growing and it keeps like it's just like it's.
00;35;03;16 - 00;35;24;08
Unknown
And it doesn't happen overnight either. Like, sometimes it takes like 2 or 3 days where you're like, hey, like, it just looks weird. Oh, it's fine, it's fine. It's just a bruise and it just grows, grows. And then all of a sudden, once it's black, you're done. It's not coming back. I kept seeing that happen to nipples. From lifts.
00;35;24;10 - 00;35;46;15
Unknown
Yep. The nip nips, right? Not the nip nip. Okay. Well, have you had any patients or, like, heard of anyone, any friend or anything where they got the reversal that they wanted and then they regretted it and wanted it? I know you mentioned the one who got implants, implants, explaining an implant again, but does that happen often? Like, do they regret it?
00;35;46;15 - 00;36;09;16
Unknown
Usually, yeah. Or anything, or even lip filler. Like they get it dissolved and they're like immediately, I want it back. What me most patients do whenever. I mean, they want to dissolve because it's migrated to another area, but usually they want it back. Like as soon as you reverse that, they want it back. But I have them wait a few weeks before I add anything but yeah, they don't want to be seen without the lip fillers.
00;36;09;18 - 00;36;25;11
Unknown
And that's the thing is, it kind of works the same thing when I do the magic shot. If you're talking about the penis, we augmented. And again, the hardest part about that is yes, it gets hard, but it lives in a flaccid state. It's relaxed most of the time. Nobody walks around with a 24 seven. Would you just nobody does that.
00;36;25;11 - 00;36;48;02
Unknown
Right. Because the longest that the penis can last in an erect state is about four hours. After that, literally the blood flow starts to die. And so it means that the blood flow stops and the penis starts to die up. You can kill your penis. Yes, absolutely. And the person and the procedure for that is pretty fricking gruesome.
00;36;48;02 - 00;37;08;07
Unknown
I remember having to do it as a first year, surgeon, and I was like, I felt so bad for the guy. And again, it wasn't because of anything. It's because he had cerebral palsy. And so sometimes they go into spasm and have certain issues that other people don't. And he had an erection for like five hours. So we had to take him to surgery and basically cut into his penis.
00;37;08;10 - 00;37;27;09
Unknown
And again, he wasn't all there, you know, but and we had to leave tubes and drains to help it drain. And it was just it just felt so bad for him. And like I said, the guy was well-endowed, like, I mean, I'm talking he was like this and like this. And he had never had sex because he was born that way.
00;37;27;09 - 00;37;49;15
Unknown
But, I mean, if you saw it, you'd be like, Holy moly, you like, you'd be like, hook me up, brother. Damn. But they do penis transplants. They do. That is an actual procedure. But but like I said, Gray's Anatomy. Yeah. Because everything on Gray's is totally real guys by the way make steamy McDreamy McDreamy in mixed steamy.
00;37;51;04 - 00;38;07;19
Unknown
But like I said it it effects guys. And as you're putting product anywhere, it can migrate, it can shift. And again, if you're thinking about the penis and it's literally living in a hanged state, where's all the product going to want to go towards the head. It's going to migrate down. So sometimes we have to remove some of it.
00;38;08;05 - 00;38;31;10
Unknown
And then like, hey, how soon can I get some more put back in? Because they're used to moving the meat that comes. So an Italian sausage. How I don't know. So now you like Italian? If you don't like shrimp, I don't like shrimp. Guys, I don't like shrimp, okay? She doesn't like shrimp. I like shrimp sometime. Or so she said.
00;38;31;10 - 00;38;54;08
Unknown
Okay. There. She says she likes shrimp. I like jumbo shrimp. Okay. Not the little minis. Okay. There you go, guys. She doesn't like shrimp. All right, so have you seen anybody or do you know anybody who's had a river? So, Alondra, how about you J in anything besides lips? Of course, because that's your field of expertise. You. No.
00;38;55;11 - 00;39;16;28
Unknown
I guess just the clients that comment that have implants and they take them out, expand it. Yeah. And how do they feel? I mean, some they just wanted them out to just because they wanted to go smaller. And some people are okay with it. I mean, I'm just waiting for them to come back and like, I want them back again, but I don't know, some.
00;39;17;02 - 00;39;40;05
Unknown
Okay, well then we have a coworker before who got her implant out to know. Yeah. And I think, you know, part of the reason is something that we see in plastic surgery called breast implant fatigue. It just basically means you're just tired of big breast or bigger breast. And like I said, it's no different than I have a red car.
00;39;40;05 - 00;39;57;12
Unknown
Hey, you know what? I'm tired of this red car. I want something different. It's nothing wrong with the red car. Just means I want something different. Yeah, tell your keyboard and, like, you know, are you ready to get your girls that. Are you ready to get your girl that? Well, yeah. I saw the cutest little boobies today that I want.
00;39;57;15 - 00;40;21;12
Unknown
They're like cutest little boobies. They were so cute. And she got, like, 200. What was it, two 20s. Oh he did 326. But again she was super petite. She was really small. Her BMI was 20. She probably weighed like 105 pounds. Like a little Kendall Jenner like just tiny. Correct. And so part of that is for everybody.
00;40;21;12 - 00;40;44;11
Unknown
But I think the biggest thing that I want people to understand when we're talking about the reversal of decisions, not plastic surgery, but remember, plastic surgery are decisions you make. Nobody puts a gun to your head and says, hey, do this. Oh, my surgeon made me do this. No, no surgeon. Because remember, you paid them. So there's no way they're going to put a gun to your head, you're going to pay them and you're going to do something, right?
00;40;44;11 - 00;41;05;09
Unknown
Yeah. They give you the information you agree or don't agree. And if you don't agree, you don't have surgery. So when I hear like, oh, my surgeon made me do you signed. You agreed. You said I'm okay with what you are recommending. You could always say no. Because again, remember, as doctors, plastic surgeons, we give recommendations, we don't give ultimatums.
00;41;05;17 - 00;41;25;20
Unknown
I can sit here and say I will do your surgery this year. Right? Well, but it's your choice. And if you agree to with what I'm saying, then you're agreeing to having that procedure. And at that point later in life, think about it. Would you make the same decision at 18 that you would at 40? Probably not different stages in life to correct.
00;41;25;20 - 00;41;47;22
Unknown
So there's always going to be evolution, especially you. Right? You're like, I want smaller boobs. Why didn't you get smaller boobs to begin with? Because you made me get bigger ones. Major. Right, right. Made you have no choice anyway. But why why do it. Why do you want smaller ones compared to the ones you have. No, I just think they're so cute.
00;41;47;23 - 00;42;12;27
Unknown
Like they much more outfits, you know, like sometimes they're just too big and then I don't have the shells to even it out. So I'm like a walking AirPod sometimes. And then just like for my body, it's not. But why did you end up getting bigger implants? It's okay. I mean, hi. He's in the game. Is in the shot.
00;42;13;03 - 00;42;37;13
Unknown
It's okay. Jaden, go back to watching TV. Okay? We're almost done, baby. Okay. All right. We'll be there in a second, okay? Okay, good. We're gonna be right there. Okay. Let's it. Maybe close the door. So, Goku. Pajamas. Okay. But what would you say? Small boobs would have fit your frame. So why did you get bigger implants of what you want?
00;42;37;13 - 00;43;00;19
Unknown
Because that was what was recommended to me. And based on weight, based on my body and my big ass chest, that's what I needed. Okay, so again, understand the dynamics. This person to my left here, Miss Alondra. Oh, I want some more boobs. And again, when you were healed, you're like, oh my gosh, my breasts are way massive.
00;43;00;21 - 00;43;31;09
Unknown
And what else did you say. Oh, when I was fully healed. They're pretty civil War time. So everybody here is that they're cute. They're really okay. And hindsight's always 2020. So if we reduced your breast size by half, how do you think they would look? Still, like saggy and not cute. Okay. This is an honest explanation here as to why I had a conversation with her, with her sister present.
00;43;31;09 - 00;43;55;22
Unknown
As to no disrespect, your boobs are hard to work with unless we do XYZ z, they're not going to look good. I'll give you whatever you want, but understand that if what you're asking for doesn't look good, that is a decision that who is making me you. And this is where I sit here and tell you trust your doctor if you're trusting them with your money, trust their opinion.
00;43;55;22 - 00;44;15;15
Unknown
That doesn't mean you have to go with that doctor. But if you're paying them money to do a surgery trust what they're telling you. Yes. And I'm very glad I went bigger because they look good. But yet she still says she wants smaller. No, because they're so cute. Correct? It doesn't. Because, I mean, when you met me, I think I was pretty bigger.
00;44;15;17 - 00;44;32;26
Unknown
And then I went smaller and then I went back to a little bit bigger. So I was like I don't know, I wish they were smaller. And then when I was smaller you got the boom. I was fine. But then certain things I miss my bigger boobs, I don't think I went as big as the first time.
00;44;32;28 - 00;44;53;09
Unknown
I think we have the same size now. But I'm happy we're a man. Yeah, but they look different obviously, on this. But I was going to say, would you guys consider that a reversal technically. Like getting a surgery and then going back and changing it. Like would you consider that a reversal? She wanted to downsize. We did, I think to a second I think so.
00;44;53;10 - 00;45;15;17
Unknown
And then she's reversing on. Hey, I want in a way yeah. Yeah, I think so. Guys what's our word of the day. Let's throw it in there. What's our word of the day. What's our word of the day. Easy. That's our word of the day. Our word of the day is easy because plastic surgery reversal is not easy.
00;45;15;19 - 00;45;37;16
Unknown
It's going to cost more money than probably your first surgery. You're going to have more scars, but you're doing it for your peace of mind, which is never easy. And it always costs more than anything else, but it is truly priceless when you feel you've gotten exactly what you wanted. Yes, indeed. So that's our word of the day.
00;45;37;16 - 00;46;00;10
Unknown
So what are they waiting for? A word of the day you will actually win either a free t shirt, a free consultation with me, or a free consultation with Nurse Scottsdale. Again, if you comment easy, either snap us, tweet us. Democracy! Snap and zip. That's C yes you can DMZ snip and snap podcast right guys? And so what are we going to talk about next week?
00;46;00;12 - 00;46;23;28
Unknown
Next week we were talking about sister. Tell us we're talking about who is a good or bad candidate for service. Yes. Yes the good, the bad and the ugly of having plastic surgery. Meaning who is a good candidate? Okay, so stay tuned. It'll be totally worth your while. All right. So thanks again for joining us on episode number 14.
