Welcome back to the show.
You know, we all want to look our
best and sometimes that might mean
we wanna refresh or a bit of a lift.
Now a non invasive procedure
that uses dissolvable sutures to
rejuvenate and lift sagging skin.
Hey, it might be an option.
And here to share more about
that and explain it as Doctor.
Tiana, CC from rejuvenation, MD.
Thanks for being here.
Thanks
so much for inviting me back.
OK, this is really cool.
How do these threads work?
So they're made of polydioxanone, which.
Is dissolvable.
And surgeons have been using them for years
and years for cardiovascular surgery.
And then evidently somebody very
smart started putting them in all
sorts of places to help lift.
So it's the.
I brought 2 examples here.
These are the thicker of the two that
actually pull up and give the most lift,
but we can put them anywhere.
I was going to ask you where you
can put them. Not just the face,
not just the face. You can do the neck.
OK. I do a ton of breast lift with these
people fly in from all over the country.
Breast lift. Yep. With these threads,
you can put them in the knees to
lift the upper knee, you know,
right above the knee. I know that.
Yeah, I know that sagging me elbows.
So wherever skin is sagging,
you can lift them up.
But there's also other types of
sutures that will just help smooth.
So I have got these all over,
so I've got some in my forehead.
I've got some here.
I've got some over my lip for lip lines,
like here in the nasal labial fold,
because sometimes I look and I go,
yeah. So
if they dissolve, how do they work?
Like. I mean, when does it does the
look go away? Once they dissolve?
So you put them in and then what happens
is over the next two weeks, your body,
your skin encompasses them, OK?
And then you start making
collagen right around them.
So you reposition the skin
and then you make collagen.
So if you put them into lines,
they just force your body to
make collagen right around them.
So although the thread dissolves,
the look does not.
The problem is or not really
a problem for me,
but for people is that they're like,
I love them so much,
I need to go get more
ohk, OK, so they keep coming back.
They keep coming back.
So even though they dissolve over a year,
then, you know the the thicker ones dissolve
over two years and people love the look.
So they come in and maybe the
first time they did 5 and now the
next time they come and do three
and then some they come do one.
So it's just a variety of of looks.
Whatever you want we can do.
They're little gravity fighters
is what they are.
They are gravity fighters like,
yeah well,
let's look at a couple of before
and afterwards because I wanna
see, I mean I can imagine.
Ohh, look at that. Beautiful.
So you do it in her.
So usually we come in.
Right up from here and then
typically put one thread here,
a thread here, a thread here,
a thread here and a thread along the jaw.
And that's what I have in my face,
but you wouldn't be able to see them.
You just get to see the look.
So it's instant and there's
really no downtime,
just a little little spot
right here to go in. So does,
I mean you probably don't can't really
talk about the specifics of how you do
it because it's proprietary knowledge.
Well, I mean you know,
I mean it's you put a little lidocaine
in here and you just go in right through
a little tiny channel and that's it.
And so typically. People don't bruise.
They leave. And they're like,
I usually get hugs when people are leaving.
They're like, wow,
that was fast and that was instant.
And there's no downtime.
I mean, no, you don't.
When you put that many threads in,
you feel a little bit sore.
So I tell people don't have don't
be around me because you'll be,
I'll be laughing.
You'll be laughing with me
because I'm very funny. And yeah.
And then your mouth will be like,
wow, you know,
your face will be like,
that kind of hurt because I took it
such a big laugh or eating a big burger.
But that's really the only downtime.
You mentioned
the neck. OK? And I know that that's
something that a lot of people.
I think you need actual surgery for.
There's nothing you can do. But this is
amazing. This is great. Exactly.
So we just put typically 5 to 10 in the
neck and then you could put the little,
the little small ones like right in
the middle just to make extra support.
So there's a variety of ways
to put these threads in,
but it's fantastic for people that
don't want to undergo surgery.
And again, there's no downtime so
she can go out the next day and
nobody would know what she did.
What
about the mouth area, that area that
I was kind of talking about the
in the the nasolabial.
Boards, whole lot of times
people are a little bit nervous
with filler and so we can put,
we can put these threads right in here.
You can put them in the lips too if
you're again nervous of filler and
they can volumize so you can volumize
right in these because it's relatable
body doing something that has been
used in human bodies for a while now.
Forever. Yeah. OK.
So no allergic reactions or antibacterial.
And again they're so easy to do.
They take less than an
hour and then you're off.
You can go do what you need to do
that day. I want to see the chin
now because I know that's a lot.
Because I do a lot of those exercises
and they aren't really working.
Like the lady from the 80s and the leotard.
Yeah. Yeah. So you can. So her.
I did her. I did her face.
And then I also did her neck,
which is what helped bring up everything.
But isn't that a great result?
I think it's amazing.
She's older and I feel like
with us as humans,
we shouldn't be so hard on ourselves.
I tried it in front of my daughter.
Not to be so hard on myself,
but I do sometimes see things.
I'm like, you know, Janet, exercises
aren't working, so enhance your own.
Judy, we're not trying to fix
anything or do anything that way.
We're just trying to make
you feel on the link.
You look on the outside,
how you feel on the inside.
Yeah. And more confidence.
And it's for me, like,
I feel like, not really for me.
It's for me always.
What is the process?
You said that the
recovery time is like, no,
nothing. Yeah. I mean,
I wouldn't do it right before
you're gonna be at a big event.
OK. Just in case you get a little
bruised up here. But, you know,
typically people have a little hair.
They can just go like that with. Yeah.
And usually people don't bruise down here,
so it takes about an hour,
and you can be great the next day.
Again, you may be sore and sorry.
Go ahead.
No, I'm sorry. No, I was just gonna
ask you because you had mentioned it
was used for cardiovascular surgery,
and now it's. So what does the FDA
say about using it for this way?
Well, it's cleared for for using it
in the face or the neck or anywhere.
I mean, they're dissolvable and safe,
so it's great. I love this. Yeah.
And I use them. I use them myself.
And they in me. Yeah, they're
in the patient response.
I know you said they hugged you.
Oh my gosh. People, they they typically say
I didn't know that I could look that good.
Without going through surgery.
Yeah. And I'll be honest with them,
if they have a a lot of skin,
I'll tell them this,
this this might not be what is for you.
OK you know, so I won't be like, oh,
let's do it. Let's see what happens.
If there's too much, then I'll let them know.
But we're very honest with what we do.
And then some people are like,
absolutely not.
I don't want to undergo surgery
just because of all the risks with
it and there's downtime with it.
And I don't can't take off of work.
Great.
You don't have to take off work for this.
You can come in on your lunch break.
They're really fast. Wow.
They're fast and they're easy.
And it it looks great immediately.
So quite quick
and I love how you do take the
time to explain and you really
let people feel comfortable what
you're doing and you also you even
have a special offer right now,
right. We do, we do.

Ohh. Wow. Yeah.

end of Labor Day weekend.
OK, yeah. OK. So next weekend
y'all, you got it. Alright.
Look at all the before and afters. Thank you
so much. It's fascinating what can
be done now and I appreciate you.
Being so open and transparent,
talking about all this,
well thanks for embracing this.
This is great. A lot of times people,
they haven't talked about all of this
stuff and now we're getting the word
out that you could be on the outside,
what you feel like you are on the inside.
Which I'm still 29 though
obviously. Me too.
I'm turning 30 this year. Alright.

Well, to me the cheeseburger is
one of the most perfect foods,
but Can you believe that?
And people don't like cheese on their burger.
What we've got some hot takes on
this and other burger related
issues when we come back.
