PLASTIC SURGERY TOO LET'S TALK
ABOUT THIS AND MORE IN TODAY'S
MEDICAL HOT TOPICS.
GOOD MORNING.
GOOD MORNING. I'M LOOKING FOR SIGNS THAT
Y'ALL MAY HAVE DONE SOMETHING.
TYPICALLY WITH PLASTIC SURGERY
IT SEEMS LIKE MORE AND MORE
WOMEN WERE GOING IN.
ARE YOU SEEING AN INCREASE IN
MEN?
MEN?
MEN? >>
MEN? >> IT'S INCREASING EVERY YEAR.
PEOPLE'S SOCIAL MEDIA.
BEING IN FRONT OF MORE PEOPLE
HAS BECOME MORE DOMINANT IN
GUYS.
GUYS.
GUYS. THEY WANT TO LOOK BETTER AND
FEEL BETTER.
FEEL BETTER. >> MAMA WAS COMING HOME LOOKING
BETTER AND THEY'RE LIKE I'VE
GOT TO KEEP UP.
YOU AS A PLASTIC SURGEON
THERE'S ALL KINDS OF THINGS
THAT MEN WILL GET.
IT'S A HANDSOME, RUGGED LOOK.
EVEN OTHER PARTS OF THE BODY
LIKE SOMETIMES YOU'LL SEE GUYS
WANT PECKS AND THINGS.
>> IT'S JUST A SPECTRUM.
GUYS ARE DOING MORE NONSURGICAL
STUFF.
STUFF.
STUFF. FACIAL TREATMENT AND FILLERS
AND SKIN CARE IS BECOMING MORE
PREVAILING.
PREVAILING. NONSURGICAL PROCEDURES LIKE
HAIR TRANSPLANTATION IS
EXPLODING RIGHT NOW.
>> NO WONDER SOME OF MY BEAUTY
PRODUCTS ARE DISAPPEARING AT
HOME.

HOME. THIS ONE RIGHT HERE, I CAN
RELATE TO THIS.
DEATHS FROM FALLS AMONG OLDER
AMERICANS ON THE RISE.
MY MOM FELL AND BROKE HER ARM.
OFTENTIMES WE'LL SEE THAT
PEOPLE WILL FALL AND THAT'S THE
DOWNWARD SPIRAL.
DOWNWARD SPIRAL. TH OTHER CONCERN WHEN MY MOM
BROKE HER ARM, THE OTHER
CONCERN WAS CAN SHE MAKE IT
THROUGH THE SURGERY, BUT CAN
SHE MAKE IT THROUGH THE
ANESTHESIA WAS ANOTHER.
>> I THINK IT'S THE RISING AGE
AND HAVING LONGER LIFE
EXPECTANCY.
EXPECTANCY. THAT'S WHY THE STATISTICS ARE
SHOWING MORE.
SHOWING MORE. MORE PEOPLE ARE LIVING LONGER.
>> WHEN THEY FALL NOT ONLY DO
THEY BREAK BONES BUT CAN HURT
THEIR HEADS.
THEIR HEADS. PEOPLE NEED MORE
ANTICOAGULATION.
ANTICOAGULATION. A FALL CAN LEAD TO AN INJURY IN
THE HEAD CAN LEAD TO A BRAIN
BLEED.
BLEED.
BLEED. WE
BLEED. WE DO SEE A LOT OF PATIENTS
THAT FALL, HIT THEIR HEADS AND
HAVING SUBDERMAL HEMATOMAS.
IF SOMEBODY IS ON
ANTICOAGULATION AND THEY FALL,
THEY SHOULD LOOK FOR AN
EVALUATION.
EVALUATION. >> OR IF THEY FALL AT ALL.
THE FIRST THING YOU SAY, DO YOU
FEEL LIKE ANYTHING'S BROKEN?
IF THERE'S NOTHING BROKEN YOU
FORGET ABOUT IT.
RATHER BE SAFE THAN SORRY.
BRUSH YOUR TEETH TO POSTPONE
ALZHEIMER'S.
ALZHEIMER'S. WE CERTAINLY KNOW THAT WHEN
WE'RE BRUSHING OUR TEETH OR
DEALING WITH OUR MOUTH THERE'S
ALL TYPES OF BACTERIA IN THERE.
WE'VE SEEN THAT RELATED TO
HEART DISEASE.
HEART DISEASE. NOW RELATED TO ALZHEIMER'S?
>> YEAH.
>> YEAH.
>> YEAH. FOR YEARS WE KNEW THAT THE BODY
IS CONNECTED TO THE MOUTH AND
IT'S JUST ONE CIRCULATION THAT
THE BACTERIA TRAVEL IN THE
BODY.
BODY.
BODY. BUT
BODY. BUT THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT
WE HAVE DNA EVIDENCE OF THE
BACTERIA THAT CAUSES GUM
DISEASE, THE MAIN BACTERIA THAT
CAUSES IT IN THE BRAIN OF
ALZHEIMER'S PATIENTS.
ALZHEIMER'S PATIENTS. WE NEVER KNEW HOW IT DEVELOPS
FOR SURE AND HOW IT IS, WHO IS
AT RISK AND ALL THAT.
WE KNOW THERE IS SO MANY
FACTORS.
FACTORS.
FACTORS. BACTERIA AND THAT STUDY SHOWED
THAT THE PEOPLE THAT HAD THE
BACTERIA GOT WORSE FASTER TOO.
SO IT IS A STRONG LINK.
ACTUALLY NOW THEY'RE THINKING
SERIOUSLY ABOUT HOW TO DEVELOP
VACCINES AGAINST THIS BACTERIA
NOT JUST FOR GUM DISEASE BUT
FOR OTHER, LIKE WE KNOW.
THERE IS HEART DISEASE.
THAT WAS FOUND IN CLOTS AROUND
THE HEART.
THE HEART. IT IS A DESTRUCTIVE BACTERIA.
>> SO BRUSH YOUR TEETH LIKE 40
TIMES A DAY.
VITAMIN D. THIS IS ONE OF THOSE
THINGS THAT WE ARE SO DEFICIENT
IN.
IN.
IN. EVERYBODY GOES IN FOR R THEIR
FULL PHYSICAL, THEY'RE TOLD

VITAMIN D MAY PROLONG LIFE IN
PEOPLE IN CANCER.

FANTASTIC FINDING.
FANTASTIC FINDING. I'VE NEVER, I JUST READ ABOUT
THAT A COUPLE WEEKS AGO.
VITAMIN D IS VERY COMMON
VITAMIN WE REQUIRE.
JUST SO MANY PATIENTS, WOULD
DEFINITELY RECOMMEND IT.

SIT. IF YOU'RE SUPER LOW AND WE NEED
IT, OBVIOUSLY THE BODY IS
FIGHTING FOR SOMETHING.
