Okay.
Hi, I'm Dr.
Rajani, same face syndrome.
You hear about it with artists who draw and frequently the same type of phase
over and over, but it's in aesthetics too, because it's that X is an art.
No many of them.
Are afraid to get treatments, injections, even Botox, because
you're afraid to look like people that you've seen on the street, people
in the movies, people in Hollywood, remember you only see the people that
don't look good or that look done.
What about those that, you know, Oh, she hasn't done anything.
She looks natural.
It's jeans must be good skincare.
No, they probably done things too, because just about everyone does, they may not
tell you, but same face syndrome comes for many reasons, ongoing to tell you five
and the top reasons and being aware of it.
Will allow you to avoid same based syndrome.
And what I'm referring to is with the advent, particularly of fillers, but
also with Botox, people are filling the same areas, creating the same, uh, lips
to cheek, to chin, to jaw line ratios.
And why is it it's deep seated, it's rooted, but there are five
important reasons that you can know.
Make your injector aware of what you do and don't want also know
as your base evolves over time.
So you can be your own regulator and avoid it.
The number one reason, and these are in no particular order is that people now
treat fillers injections like makeup.
So they don't believe there's long-term consequences.
Or look meaning it does migrate.
If something's approved for six months or a year, it might last five to 10 years.
The approval of a product for longevity has little to do with how long it
actually lasts for in the body.
So when people are adding things, they're morphing into something else.
And when, when results occur over time or changes occur over time,
people aren't aware of that.
How do I.
A lot of what I do are subtle changes over time.
And when I first started out, the biggest complaint I wouldn't get from my
patients was I don't see a difference, but now I've done this many, many years.
I can look at patients 10 and 20 years ago and look, say, Hey, you look the
same or better than you saw me 20 years.
That's a win, but it's not makeup.
It shouldn't be treated like makeup.
And it's lasting a lot longer in the effects last longer in
the body than people think.
So it's not like a magic eraser marker, or just getting a cat eye lift that will go
away quickly and you can change your look.
Number two is an industry problem and it comes from training and
teaching a lot of injections.
Are used to being trained by companies.
Companies can only train what they're FDA approved on.
Now, training in this industry is more like an internship.
It takes years, and there's no one course where someone can go and take
a year or two long program to get it.
A lot of times people take a, an online course.
And hang their self up or hang their sign up and start working.
Doesn't work like that anymore.
It is extremely complex and people's expectations are very different than
they were 20 years ago when this was a much more simplistic industry.
But let's just say for an example, a cheek filler was FDA approved.
Oh, it was around 2015.
Let's say 2014.
Everyone started getting cheeks while I was filling cheeks
in the early two thousands.
But awareness was creative because the company in 2015
then could teach cheek fillers.
People like their cheeks.
Um, beginner, injectors, wouldn't get trained by the company.
It didn't cost extra money.
So everyone's walking.
Cat cheeks or high cheeks.
And that became a thing.
The same will happen for different areas that get
approved, like a gin or a jawline.
When that happens, everyone will then start getting them because of.
Ease of training and the product being FDA approved, understand FDA approved
means it's approved for certain area, but what a practicing physician, practicing
practitioner, the word practicing means what you're doing is you have your own
art and science and you can do, what's generally accepted in your community.
You don't have to do what's an FDA approved procedure.
Practice medicine.
So FDA approvals in certain areas have created looks.
And so the training.
Of the people putting the product in is lagging.
The amount of people looking for these services.
Meaning so many people are looking for services is the growth rate for this.
The curve is very steep, but the amount of educated advanced injectors
is in matching the demand number.
External beauty is math.
So beauty comes from within, but the external beauty for which the person
providing these services is asked to administer has a mathematical
component, or whether you want to divide the face into three.
Fifths, whatever you do, golden ratios, whatever you believe in
there is a math behind booty.
If not everyone would be a movie star.
So by creating the same math that injectors are taught, it takes
people towards the same one.
Look, cheeks, lips.
Jawlines.
Snatched.
That's what everyone's wanting and that's what's being created.
So that mathematical component comes out where most social media, and that's why
the number one demographic coming into my practice to be under the age of 35.
They're on social media.
They want a certain look.
And they're making money from it.
They're getting success from it and they're getting attention from it.
So there's a draw towards a very similar mathematical look.
Number four, I call NBC syndrome kind of interesting.
It's somewhat new.
But people will come in with a picture of someone else or even
their friend say, I want that look.
I want cheeks like that.
I want lips like that.
I want to chin projection like that, even though their own chin looks
amazing lips, cheeks, it looks perfect.
They want the look of somebody.
Maybe me because that person is successful in a, an area of their
life that they wished to be.
And so they want that look when they have a perfectly good or
even better look to begin with.
I see it all the time.
So having a practitioner that's going to tell, you know, is very
important, but there is an NBC.
And it does exist.
Watch for number five.
There's no plan.
It's all important to do your homework.
Get great consults, find a great practitioner and get a
plan and review your picture.
So many times in this channel, people are asking questions of me.
Hey, I did this treatment.
I'm not sure, like I did this treatment.
Didn't work.
What did your before, after and now picture look like, what does it look like?
What are those changes?
You need a treatment plan for a common goal.
The plan can shift a little bit, but if you're going from special at this
location to another med spa, this special to another one with this
special, you're going to have a.
Jointed look, and that's going to get you towards the same face syndrome,
because they're going to want to provide treatments that are quick,
easy, profitable, and they don't know what you look like to start with.
They don't know what the starting canvas was.
So having the pre pictures before anything was done is all so important.
I put a complete playlist up here on angles and creating beauty.
Chin projections by zygomatic by gonial angles, golden ratios.
So you can educate yourself on beauty angles and beauty math.
Don't fall victim to same face syndrome.
Stay tuned here to keep your skin and body and beautiful, healthy, and vibrant.
