all right don’t eat well from well

0:00:02.070,0:00:07.799
Medical Arts and hooray we get to show

0:00:04.859,0:00:10.200
you the only acne scars now there were a

0:00:07.799,0:00:13.620
couple of methods in particularly we

0:00:10.200,0:00:15.780
usually go in enter dermal a and fill

0:00:13.620,0:00:16.289
each acne scar you might have seen that

0:00:15.780,0:00:18.150
before

0:00:16.289,0:00:20.670
Bella fill was the product the only

0:00:18.150,0:00:23.609
product that is indicated for filling

0:00:20.670,0:00:25.560
acne scars it works very well by

0:00:23.609,0:00:27.269
building the patient’s own collagen that

0:00:25.560,0:00:29.429
usually starts at about day 30

0:00:27.269,0:00:32.009
the other technique which I’m so excited

0:00:29.429,0:00:35.160
to show you is when you go into a liquid

0:00:32.009,0:00:37.559
facelift or you lift the face so as

0:00:35.160,0:00:39.390
people age that acne scarring might seem

0:00:37.559,0:00:42.629
to get a little bit work worse

0:00:39.390,0:00:44.969
that’s from losing volume in the upper

0:00:42.629,0:00:46.710
face those fat pads shrinking when that

0:00:44.969,0:00:48.840
happens things start to come down and

0:00:46.710,0:00:51.090
work when you go in and then fill the

0:00:48.840,0:00:53.820
temple fill the cheek or in front of the

0:00:51.090,0:00:57.059
ear it pulls everything back and that in

0:00:53.820,0:00:59.010
itself smooths the acne scars and then

0:00:57.059,0:01:01.289
we’re gonna go in and fill so first

0:00:59.010,0:01:04.199
we’re gonna go in and do a little temple

0:01:01.289,0:01:06.390
and a little cheek to lift we’ll see how

0:01:04.199,0:01:09.680
much that lifted and then we’re gonna go

0:01:06.390,0:01:15.390
in and fill each particular acne scar

0:01:09.680,0:01:18.509
but I am light a caning running just a

0:01:15.390,0:01:22.020
little bit of lidocaine so that she

0:01:18.509,0:01:23.700
doesn’t hurt now we do that for the area

0:01:22.020,0:01:27.360
that we use in the upper face with a

0:01:23.700,0:01:29.729
liquid facelift to lift for using the

0:01:27.360,0:01:31.320
cannula doing a liquid placeless will we

0:01:29.729,0:01:33.329
start at the top and work our way down

0:01:31.320,0:01:34.979
so I’m starting in her temples we’ve

0:01:33.329,0:01:37.680
already numbed her up I’m gonna test and

0:01:34.979,0:01:41.250
make sure you’re not a little one too oh

0:01:37.680,0:01:43.710
can you feel that yeah one two oh can

0:01:41.250,0:01:46.350
you feel about one for now and one two

0:01:43.710,0:01:48.730
what about that one yeah good enough

0:01:46.350,0:01:53.040
here we go

0:01:48.730,0:01:53.040
[Music]

0:02:01.229,0:02:10.090
so right now I’m using the cannula which

0:02:04.650,0:02:11.800
has a dull tip it is an amazing way to

0:02:10.090,0:02:15.970
feel things you can sometimes hear it

0:02:11.800,0:02:18.160
did yeah yeah when it first starts the

0:02:15.970,0:02:21.390
cannula is a very elegant way to do

0:02:18.160,0:02:25.270
things it’s the safest way to fill and

0:02:21.390,0:02:27.940
it causes less tissue trauma less

0:02:25.270,0:02:30.190
swelling less bruising because there’s

0:02:27.940,0:02:32.920
no needle to actually poke things with

0:02:30.190,0:02:36.640
I’m not sure if you can see that as I’m

0:02:32.920,0:02:41.070
filling but the tip is right down here

0:02:36.640,0:02:41.070
and then watch it fill up as I withdraw

0:02:42.330,0:02:52.239
and I’m gonna fill right up here isn’t

0:02:51.220,0:02:55.950
that amazing

0:02:52.239,0:02:55.950
all without a needle

0:02:58.110,0:03:06.370
and I love working with the cannula

0:03:00.910,0:03:13.570
because I’m able to get a large area by

0:03:06.370,0:03:17.410
only one poke looking great and how are

0:03:13.570,0:03:19.660
you feeling good good you’re a great

0:03:17.410,0:03:25.290
patient we’re almost done with the first

0:03:19.660,0:03:25.290
one once again with the cannula

0:03:26.490,0:03:30.240
wonderful way to do things

0:03:30.600,0:03:36.280
this point is called the lateral cheek

0:03:34.120,0:03:36.820
and it goes all the way back into the

0:03:36.280,0:03:40.510
hairline

0:03:36.820,0:03:42.190
I do do hairline lifts some people it’s

0:03:40.510,0:03:48.190
one of my favorite areas is to hide

0:03:42.190,0:03:50.200
forward here up into the hairline a lot

0:03:48.190,0:03:53.290
of these areas that are right on the

0:03:50.200,0:03:55.630
bone give a wonderful lift the filler is

0:03:53.290,0:04:00.190
going low right onto the bone and then

0:03:55.630,0:04:02.530
it has something to anchor it on to the

0:04:00.190,0:04:04.420
areas that are harder to get left are

0:04:02.530,0:04:06.910
the areas under here there’s nothing to

0:04:04.420,0:04:13.650
anchor on to so this gives a really nice

0:04:06.910,0:04:17.950
lift looking great we’re almost there

0:04:13.650,0:04:20.140
love it I like to pull back and give it

0:04:17.950,0:04:22.890
a little bit of torque it does help tack

0:04:20.140,0:04:22.890
it into place

0:04:25.240,0:04:36.780
just about men and then feel a little

0:04:28.570,0:04:36.780
bit down to contour a little bit up

0:04:37.830,0:04:43.060
and when doing this you think about

0:04:40.690,0:04:45.250
where those natural fat pads were and

0:04:43.060,0:04:51.160
just replacing someone’s natural fat

0:04:45.250,0:04:55.360
pads perfect we got it then we go in and

0:04:51.160,0:05:00.759
smooth and I call it the rub rub rub so

0:04:55.360,0:05:02.440
going in and rub rub rub the first time

0:05:00.759,0:05:07.210
they did this to me I thought oh my

0:05:02.440,0:05:10.330
goodness that’s a vigorous but with the

0:05:07.210,0:05:13.479
bellyful won’t pressure something like

0:05:10.330,0:05:16.060
that looks beautiful there are the tiny

0:05:13.479,0:05:17.800
PMMA molecules and we want them nicely

0:05:16.060,0:05:20.260
spread throughout that’s why we’re

0:05:17.800,0:05:24.090
fanning them in there layering them in

0:05:20.260,0:05:24.090
there and then smoothing them out

0:05:28.840,0:05:33.680
alright beautimous so when you look at

0:05:32.030,0:05:40.400
it look at the contour and not the

0:05:33.680,0:05:41.410
little pinky irritation oh whoa isn’t

0:05:40.400,0:05:44.600
that nice

0:05:41.410,0:05:46.940
look at how much it lifted so yeah see

0:05:44.600,0:05:48.680
how your lateral cheek comes up into

0:05:46.940,0:05:50.750
your temple and it flows on through like

0:05:48.680,0:05:53.030
it did yeah and so they have an indent

0:05:50.750,0:05:56.480
and an indent yeah and look at how much

0:05:53.030,0:05:58.010
lift that really really did and it’ll

0:05:56.480,0:06:07.880
settle down it’s not gonna be that big

0:05:58.010,0:06:14.510
once it all settles down by this point

0:06:07.880,0:06:17.800
that I’m doing is the medial cheek also

0:06:14.510,0:06:17.800
referred to as the apple

0:06:24.860,0:06:27.940
don’t you think

0:06:30.970,0:06:38.389
and we’re just doing a little bit right

0:06:34.879,0:06:41.599
here I want to lift her nasolabial fold

0:06:38.389,0:06:45.650
a little bit this is what makes people

0:06:41.599,0:06:48.500
look healthy I didn’t even go in and do

0:06:45.650,0:06:53.599
this on men and all it does is make him

0:06:48.500,0:06:56.889
look a little less tired she’s got a

0:06:53.599,0:06:59.659
little bit more volume loss on her right

0:06:56.889,0:07:03.530
so I’m gonna save a little bit more from

0:06:59.659,0:07:06.069
this syringe for the other side there we

0:07:03.530,0:07:06.069
go beautiful

0:07:07.440,0:07:10.519
[Music]

0:07:11.990,0:07:17.030
looking good just keep that chicken

0:07:13.850,0:07:19.310
well-balanced take a quick peek so

0:07:17.030,0:07:20.000
that’s just helping just a little bit

0:07:19.310,0:07:23.960
right yeah

0:07:20.000,0:07:25.789
that’s definitely better though like I

0:07:23.960,0:07:28.340
get good night’s sleep

0:07:25.789,0:07:30.199
yeah good for me with all of that she’ll

0:07:28.340,0:07:34.960
be like oh she gave me the glamour and

0:07:30.199,0:07:38.530
treated money all right

0:07:34.960,0:07:41.389
the temples are so crucial fulfilling

0:07:38.530,0:07:48.380
their foundational they’re really an

0:07:41.389,0:07:53.330
under filled area it’s so important not

0:07:48.380,0:07:54.800
to neglect they’re not as sexy is the

0:07:53.330,0:07:57.259
cheek I think that’s what people don’t

0:07:54.800,0:08:01.789
do them as much but it’s really

0:07:57.259,0:08:05.680
foundational you know the cheeks or a

0:08:01.789,0:08:05.680
big people-pleaser

0:08:06.670,0:08:17.150
so fun so pretty to do and I like to

0:08:11.990,0:08:19.630
make the cheek curve right into the

0:08:17.150,0:08:19.630
temple

0:08:22.360,0:08:25.650
you’re doing great babe

0:08:35.079,0:08:41.860
okay I usually help the patient go in

0:08:37.789,0:08:45.079
and mark the little areas that bug them

0:08:41.860,0:08:48.980
some of them got erased when we were

0:08:45.079,0:08:53.079
doing the cheek so I just wanted to get

0:08:48.980,0:08:56.480
my little dunk markers in their this way

0:08:53.079,0:08:58.670
mm-hmm and certain types work better

0:08:56.480,0:09:00.500
than others these are all fairly good

0:08:58.670,0:09:02.810
candidates and what they’re called

0:09:00.500,0:09:06.019
rolling boxcar and what that means is

0:09:02.810,0:09:08.360
when you go ahead and distend or pull

0:09:06.019,0:09:11.089
the skin that they straighten and

0:09:08.360,0:09:15.379
stretch out so you can see that most of

0:09:11.089,0:09:18.019
them do that I also want you to notice

0:09:15.379,0:09:20.480
this does a little bit of volume loss

0:09:18.019,0:09:22.970
right through here and another time

0:09:20.480,0:09:26.569
we’ll go in and full fill this area

0:09:22.970,0:09:28.790
that’s called pre auricular or above in

0:09:26.569,0:09:31.490
front of the ear or sometimes sub may

0:09:28.790,0:09:33.769
learn below the chin and when hole of

0:09:31.490,0:09:35.629
the cheek when we go and pull that back

0:09:33.769,0:09:39.410
that’s also gonna help for acne scarring

0:09:35.629,0:09:46.730
as well as the aging laxity what you

0:09:39.410,0:09:49.779
really don’t have much up so we really

0:09:46.730,0:09:53.389
just get right underneath the lesion and

0:09:49.779,0:09:56.240
bam it a little bit to fill it up one

0:09:53.389,0:10:00.410
two look and I’ll go through and I’ll

0:09:56.240,0:10:05.089
fill them and then afterwards do the rub

0:10:00.410,0:10:07.129
rub rub just move there’s another

0:10:05.089,0:10:11.000
technique that I’m doing here as well

0:10:07.129,0:10:15.250
one to look and that’s called subcision

0:10:11.000,0:10:19.189
and that is what the needle separating

0:10:15.250,0:10:24.319
the little bit of a deist which means

0:10:19.189,0:10:26.439
stuck to tissue and kind of cutting it

0:10:24.319,0:10:26.439
away

0:10:26.569,0:10:31.949
separating it so that it doesn’t stick

0:10:28.589,0:10:33.419
anymore one to flip to some of these

0:10:31.949,0:10:38.729
ones that are a little bit smaller I

0:10:33.419,0:10:40.229
like to just go straight in so it does

0:10:38.729,0:10:44.699
just look a little pokey from being

0:10:40.229,0:10:46.499
poked but it’ll all settle down yeah and

0:10:44.699,0:10:52.109
let me that’s the smoothest I’ve ever

0:10:46.499,0:10:57.299
seen it compared to the others ducking

0:10:52.109,0:11:05.059
pow wows go get the other side let’s get

0:10:57.299,0:11:05.059
them they are so rewarding to get

0:11:13.890,0:11:18.350
hang in there baby you’re doing great

0:11:20.730,0:11:25.920
now zero to ten zeros and an intense

0:11:23.580,0:11:32.120
worse in your life how bad are these

0:11:25.920,0:11:38.040
maybe a too good perfect

0:11:32.120,0:11:42.410
exhale everything is turned out so

0:11:38.040,0:11:45.600
beautifully now we are just finessing

0:11:42.410,0:11:56.100
during the last little bits even a

0:11:45.600,0:11:59.660
little bit more wonderful you have been

0:11:56.100,0:11:59.660
so great

0:12:06.470,0:12:11.389
they they nice and there is a tiny bit

0:12:09.230,0:12:16.220
left for just that little bit right here

0:12:11.389,0:12:19.639
smile for me breath in relax and exhale

0:12:16.220,0:12:21.550
tiny book same thing just that little

0:12:19.639,0:12:28.029

0:12:31.490,0:12:36.259
with a quick faceless we did temples

0:12:33.259,0:12:38.750
lateral cheek medial cheek to lift and

0:12:36.259,0:12:41.209
support that looks gorgeous just a tiny

0:12:38.750,0:12:45.310
bit swollen and then we filled in all

0:12:41.209,0:12:45.310
the little acne scars they look so good
