Okay.
I sat down to make one video and I changed my mind on my phone.
I got a comment from the YouTube channel.
Someone said, Hey doctor, Rajani, what do you do for your skin?
What procedures do you get?
What is your skincare routine?
And I thought I hadn't done it in a while.
I poured a little coffee.
If you haven't received your.
Let us know, we sent out many hundred already and I put some MCT oil in
my copy, medium chain triglycerides.
I do use those.
If you want, let me know in the comments below, we'll make a
complete video on that, but what are the things I do for my skincare?
First of all, let's preface it by saying there are days that I feel like I look
10 years older and there's days I think.
My skin's looking reasonable and they think that's a normal part of what
we all go through based on lighting, based on emotion and based on the
people that are around us, giving us positive or negative energy.
So it's all very normal.
Uh, and I'm going to put aside sleep, uh, diet, meaning, healthy diet and exercise.
We'll get, we'll put those as a given.
What are the interventional things?
Number one.
Is going to be a skincare routine.
I think it's very, very important.
Again, I'm going to put sunscreen aside word and the actives aside,
that would be a given number one, uh, for skincare routine.
Moisturizers good solid moisturizer that you can use to buffer your products with.
I use a hyaluronic acid serum.
I really like alpha hydroxy acids.
Many also have a BHA in them, uh, and vitamin C, those are staples
for me and growth factor skincare.
So I'd say that makes up the foundation of a skincare routine.
Most importantly, in your skincare routine is going to.
Following it.
So using products that your skin likes and educating yourself on your skin,
understanding it sees an environmental.
So what you use in the summer might be different from what used in the
winter or dry climates and education getting know your skin is number one.
It's while you're on this channel, hopefully.
And that I am helping you with your skincare routines.
One of the comments I love to hear below often I do is that, Hey, since I've been
following your advice and your channel, my skin is more glowing, more youthful,
and I'm able to incorporate all natural, do it yourself treatments as well.
Purchased products.
So skincare routines, number one, let's go to procedures because it's
probably what most people want to know.
First and foremost, let's start with the most common procedure in the
world today, injectable wise, which is Botox and Botox like products.
I rarely use.
I did treat in my glabella the other day.
And at that point I used Zim and that's what I had and I
used it and I can't move it.
And I treated one eye was Z-Man one, not because I was
testing, but I rarely use those.
And I never treat my forehead because I want the maximum.
My idea is the least you have to do of those the better, because
I'd rather have a foundation of college and building and better skin.
And remember they stop muscle movement.
They don't make your skin better.
Uh, we'll go to the.
Common treatment and it's not frequently done, but it's biostimulators and as
many complete videos on sculptor every two years, I would say I do sculptor
temples, high cheek, a little in front of the ear jaw line and in the little.
Uh, chin area, don't treat the nasal label fools or the front
of the chin with sculptor at all.
And I never treat the neck with sculptor or, uh, biostimulators in that sense.
Uh, so that would be one.
Now I've switched recently over to PRF gel.
I skipped my sculptor and went winter PRF gel.
I use the easy gel system and in my top treatments at
2022, my number one treatment.
Was that the PRF gel injectable product.
It's all natural, nothing synthetic it's all from your own body.
So go back.
If you want to see exactly what that is.
Watch my video was probably in December, top treatments of 2022.
And again, it was the number one treatment.
The reason you want to do biosimilars.
That's what builds your collagen?
That's what builds your lasting?
That's what allows you not to need neuromodulators like Botox, uh, and
it makes your skin better and yes, it does create a lift next PDO threads,
particularly smooth threads, maybe once a year, once every 18 months using smooth.
Threads strategically, uh, and Barb threads occasionally on the jawline,
maybe every couple of years, again, when you're doing combinations, you don't
need to repeat them every six months as if that was your only treatments.
If you're only doing threads, you can't achieve what you can with combinations
and you would need, if you're only doing Barb thread lifts, you might need
it every six months to get the result.
If you're combining oftentimes the longevity is good.
In terms of when you need to repeat next, we'll go to fractionated,
our AF radio frequency.
A lot of people say, what's the number one way to lip the forehead.
Keep the eyes open.
If you cannot do neuromodulators, like Botox up here because they drop you.
So if you do Botox in the forehead, it always lowers.
I don't mind the movement, but if you don't want that, Fractionated RF.
I use bureau VFR because they can get deep heating and collagen and
superficial to get the Browns.
Brown spots are important as are smooth skin as is smooth skin
because it's about light reflection.
Light reflection gives you youth the yours before.
Attacks both with one single treatment and there's almost no pain.
So that would be a staple of my skincare routine.
And I would do that three times a year.
That is something I believe that I want to do more frequently because
it gets to the root of the problem.
Collagen elastin.
Blow and smooth skin.
That's what we lose as we age those five elements, a great skin care routine.
Is your foundation a little bit of Botox, like products, Botox Dysport
Xeomin would be in the same category.
Biostimulators like sculptor.
And now the new platelet rich fibrin gel smooth PO PDO threads
for the most part with barbs where.
And finally viewers VFR several sessions a year would make up the
staple of a great skincare routine.
And what I rely on as my foundation, I hope that helps keep your skin and
body beautiful, healthy, and vibrant.
