When celebrities don't admit to surgery, I don't think it has anything to do with personal liberation... but all to do with what beauty products they can sell to "look like me"
I think that’s more the case for beauty influencers but not celebrities, excluding the Kardashian’s if you consider them celebrities, seems they do just about anything for money
The recent "polygraph" Arianna did was so infuriating. The gaslighting was off the charts with that one. And her stans are so ignorant, always defending her. When the truth is she looks like an entirely different person, not like she has just simply aged.
she called out her own brother for having had two nose jobs and then says she hasn't had any surgery... then says there is no shame in having surgery and power to the people who do that. the fuck??? she's on face number five!!
I really appreciate how you acknowledge risk without being alarmist. It makes it much more meaningful when you do talk about how dangerous and irresponsible some of this stuff is because I know you mean it.
I'm an esthetician and pro MUA. I've been in the industry for over 14 years, so I have had a front row seat to the insecurities and obsession stemming from social media. I've started being brutally honest, but empathetic with my clients, letting them know what is real and achievable vs the highly edited filtered images online. I will have the client look in the mirror and point to their perceived flaws. Many times, they just need education and some knowledge.
The thing I hate about most filler is you've got 22 year olds using it, looking like they're 40 year olds trying to appear 20? Does that make sense? I dunno if it's subconscious, but it really ages you.
Our niece is a pretty girl but she is 22 and doing fillers. Has been since she was a teen. P s. It doesn't make sense to me. I never did fillers and just look 10+years younger cause all these young ppl just look old now.
Nerve damage, necrosis, healing dependent on my body, possible revisions and being botched; I'm not that bold. My battle is choosing to accept my imperfections instead or fighting to correct it.
This - and if you're vain enough to seek this out, you're also the sort of person who will react the worst if it fails, since you'd already be unsatisfied with your looks
I have always thought about these celebrities having to look at their children in the face and see all of the things they disliked and changed about themselves. If i had a daughter and had to explain why I looked like her when I was her age and changed many of the things that she inherited from me because I didn't like them, I would feel incredibly ashamed 😔
DON'T DO IT!! I got one and a half syringes back in 2019, then another "top off" in 2020. Now four years later, my cheeks push up under my eyes and makes me look odd! I wish I had known all this back then!
I think as surgery and other procedures become more accessible natural beauty will become the “status symbol” that plastic surgery once was if that makes sense. I think we’re actually headed in a direction where celebs will be even less honest about procedures because in a way when everyone can afford it it becomes kind of gauche. Of course people will continue getting procedures but I think they’ll want it to be even less detectable (ex. How super perky and large fake boobs used to be the trend and now people want a Kendall Jenner boob job)
18:08 this is such an interesting point to make. In the 90s-00s, there was a big obsession with skinniness. Models were starving themselves and doing drugs for the “heroin chic” look, leading to many young girls developing eating disorders. Now it’s the other way around, with fuller bodies and faces being trendy. The Kardashian’s and other celebrities started with BBLs, lip fillers, etc, then everyone else followed, leading to young girls risking their lives to have these surgeries. The cycle of women killing themselves while trying to achieve the beauty standard will just continue
I had lip filler 3 years ago ( 1/2 syringe on top lip half on bottom) and the filler is STILL there. They’ve definitely gone down and I’m happy with them but after watching this I think it will be there forever. Also Stephanie is right about water retention. When I wake up in the morning my face is usually puffy and my lips look like they did when I had the filler done
?could you elaborate idk maybe i didnt get enough sleep. Although i will say her showing jaclyn hills face as swelled because of filler when its more probable that its from alcoholism seems a bit sketch but otherwise Stephanie makes great points
apart from reconstruction after a traumatic medical emergency, there is really no reason to go for plastic surgery for anyone. It's has been a slippery slope since its inception.
I feel like once you inject filler, it never truly goes away even if you dissolve it. Small amounts will always remain. That’s why I’m never getting it.
Lasers, nitrogen treatments (doctor basically burns the scar with it and it deflates into a smaller scar. 2-3 treatments get rid of it) or hormone injections. But!!! the scars may return. My got my post surgery keliod injected about a year ago and it stared growing again (not as big, but I notice). My scar after a laser birthmark removal that I got treated with liquid nitrogen also started slowly returning like 5-6 years later
@@thectyptid00 wow about the nitrogen treatment I've never really heard of this one. I thought costeroide injections and radio frequency microneedling are the best one so far. But thankyou for replying tho!
@@ninismanofoot nitrogen is top tier as far as my experience goes. It leaves a bubbled up burn for week or two but it works faster than laser/microneedling and it is cheaper (at least in my country). Find a good healthcare provider though, all scar treatments can easely be messed up and leave even nastier scars
I’ve always known this stuff about filler- how it obviously stretches the skin, not only by balloon effect but also increased weight means a greater pull of gravity on the skin, and all of the manipulation of the skin also stretches it. Still, I did it once stupidly because a friend was recommending it. TG I never did it again.
I get lip filler but it’s so subtle, it looks natural. Pre pandemic my injector allowed half syringe, store the other half to be used within x time. So 1 syringe per year. Now they don’t store like that but my point, no one has to get multiple injections in lips. It really got out of control. The injector is key. That diy thing, wow! lol..I don’t do face filler outside lip, or injections of any kind in my face as that scares me.
Can you do a video on CO2RE fractional laser resurfacing? I'm on day 4 of recovery and it's rougher than I expected. I do think I'll be happy with the results but I have been a bit shocked at how uncomfortable I've been these first few days. I had my entire face and eyes done with some feathering into the neck. The swelling has been INSANE!
@MariaCastro-jm5qn I mean they're watching this video, which is educational on the matter, and sharing their personal experience, which is valuable to the conversation. Attacking people getting injectables isn't going to achieve anything.
It's good that you're open with it, but personally I'm shook that anyone is letting this stuff near their faces lol There are also reports of the acid going into the brain
@@unturned6066 So, Brazil is a reference in plastic surgery and there are many more safety measures adopted here than in the US. The relationship we have with the procedures here is very different from what you have in North America. I read the latest studies on acid and they are really worrying for those who do it a lot. In my case, it was just one dose once... I'm very happy with the result, since after a long depression my skin became very saggy, and today I'm very confident again.
I am 66 and have done nothing to my face. No fillers, no botox, nothing. My face looks fine. Not too many wrinkles. Maybe because I didn´t do anything. I used my money to fun instead.
I grew up as a black girl with very large lips. Got made fun of in every which way for it in school. Now, the same people who made fun of me are getting lip fillers themselves looking like they’re about to be in an episode of botched
I seriously DON'T get it. People used to make fun of black people for large lips, tease East Asians for their eyes, and now they do lips fillers and lift their eyes the way they mocked Asians. Old people try their best to look young, and here we have a generation of 15-25 yo girls who look like they are in their 40s hahahahahaha. Not just fillers but veneers, too. I just don't get it. Why do they want to fix things which are not broken??? Those ppl need to seek help from psychologists, not plastic surgeons!
Same! Also for the big backside too. Now you all want this. Beauty standards are fickle and just move in trends and aren't worth paying so much heed to.
@@khanhlinhpham They wanna have those trending features while still looking Eurocentric overall. They'll take the full lips, slightly upturned eyes (they wouldn't want actual monolids though!), and maybe get tanner, but they don't _actually_ wanna look black or East/SE/Central Asian. For example, no one's clamoring to get a wider or flatter nose.
Thank you for your video! I'm still thinking about what to do about my chin. It is a bit regressive and I want it to be a bit more forward. So a filler will migrate, injected fat will change based on weight :/
Am I the only one who thinks Kylie actually looked good on the night of the photos which highlighted filler setting under her eyes? The filler looked odd, and it was alarming, yes. But otherwise she was wearing less makeup and her hair was a little less coifed and I think it kind of humanizes her. I think it’s weird that we complain about celebs using filtered and being so photoshopped but when they are actually just looking like humans (with too much filler) we shame them for looking bad.
There's lots of scope for reasonable and responsible use of fillers and studies and techniques are always evolving. Who is say this doctor isn't an ethical one who turns down requests for over the top filler that isn't needed? Not all doctors lack integrity, and many will say no to potential clients.
The contrast between Gary’s low and soothing voice and Stephanie’s high-pitched voice had me💀 (I love the content of both but I always listen to them separately lol)
Thank you for this. So does anyone have suggestions for what would be a safer or better option for...say undereye troughs...instead of HA filler? If any.
hey doctor, these recent researches have come to worry me a little and i kind of don't know what to do now, my anxiety is kinda ticking.. over a year ago i had filler injected for my tear through in both eyes, very small amount (also i don't plan to do any more). i have never presented any bad symptoms and everything seems to work just fine. the doctor who did it had over 20 years of experience, was really honest about results and even talked me out of doing more stuff lol. so should i get any medical examination to see if the filler might be now going somewhere it shouldn't or something? i mean, if i do check ups with doctors i might still have the chance to dissolve it before something actually bad happens, if it will?
@@polarbear67 sorry english is not my first language. i meant that i injected filler in both my left and right tear throughs. if you're questioning what a tear through is i think a simple google image will show you better
I see that people like Stephanie here, but her videos (especially the thumbnails) give me a really weird taste. There’s this fixation on exposing women for 'ruining' their faces due to 'toxic beauty standards,' while she looks like just another insta influencer herself. There’s also another RUclipsr who makes similar videos, and every single one has ragebait titles like 'Look at this woman she looks crazy.' It’s almost like they’re trying to make themselves look better in comparison? Anyone?
Ultimately she fits an idealised beauty standard, yes. I also think she is making the videos from a genuinely good place where she is angry about toxic standards and practises. However, she has worked out rage and shock gets views, likes and attention so now her videos are all pushed in this style. I think she could be more empathetic and more kind in what she does tbh, but then again - I also get with some people (like the kardashians, you have just had enough of their BS).
Easy for someone who looks like her. While I disagree with what a lot of what these people have done to their faces and think they don’t look good, she sounds like a mean girl. She could convey the same message with a different tone. It’s people like her that make people feel insecure. I find her very annoying and wish he’d stop highlighting her videos.
I love your content Dr. Gary - but I am really tired of all the negativity of fillers. Yes!! Absolutely girls start too early and some really overdo it - but, if it is used wisely it can enhance your contours and you could, together with other treatments, go without a facelift. What is more risky? A surgery or some fillers if done by a certified doctor?
That one person, at around 15 mins in, has made her face look how those of use with autoimmune illness look with facial swelling and water retention in their face 😢 its so sad peoppe did this to themselves.
What I’ve noticed with all these trends thru the years… is that they LOVE black features….but not on black women. They take the beautiful features of black women and put them on white women bc it looks better and its more desirable that way.
I’ve had filler twice. A total of 1.5ml. Haven’t ‘topped up’ in 7 years and it’s still very much there. My lips have barely changed. I started suspecting filler didn’t just metabolise about 4 years ago. I see girls who started filler around the same time I did and what they’ve done to their faces in a matter of a handful or so of years is WILD. It’s like they get filler blindness and just keep going and going. Super scary stuff.
I had a little filler in my tear through three years ago and it changed my life for the better. It was very subtle, it looks natural and three years later on it is still in place.
Skin care. Eye cream goes on first ,sun block last. I'm using an eye cream with retinol in it to help stimulate collagen production at night and a caffeine eye cream in the morning. Also try a diy lymphatic facial message. You can find videos on here all over find one you like. I also drink bone broth for collagen. The carrot and tumeric flavored ones arent that bad. They sell sipping broth now in the grocery store. Oh and lots of vitamin c. It's not one thing you do it's many.
You think therapists just throw medications at people as fake solutions for real problems? That's both not accurate and a hypocritical accusation coming from a cosmetic surgeon. I've been to therapy at two different periods of my life discussed self esteem issues, all we do is talk about them, I've never at any time been put on any type of medications nor has it even been suggested. If I went to you, you would probably suggest procedures, wouldn't you?
I've had medications thrown at me for mh mental health issues. Anxiety and depression. Now Im 35 and have been slowly lowering the doses in order to get off the meds and Im finally about to start actual therapy for my anxiety. It does happen.
... If you go to a plastic surgeon, they are probably going to suggest procedures, yes. That's how this generally works. Why would you go to a surgeon expecting psychopharmacological therapy?
@@agendacide75 It seems you miss understood. I'm not implying that you would go to a plastic surgeon in search of pschopharmacological therapy. People who are insecure about their appearance wouldn't go to a therapist for such, either, and probably wouldn't get it. I'm saying that it's hypocritical for a surgeon to imply that a psychotherapist would push you on to something you don't really need that may not be good for you or you may become dependent on when that's ALL a plastic surgeon does. And those cosmetic procedures may carry serious risks, worse than the side effects of the anti-depressants that a therapist probably won't give you, and may require lifetime maintainence, not much different than the scenario Dr. Linkov presented of being on "lifetime medication" (generally, you'd only be on anti-depressants until you're not depressed anymore, unless you actually have a depressive disorder, in which case you need them) while NOT fixing the problem. The celebrities we're seeing as examples here didn't just "fix" one feature they didn't feel good about and overcame their obsession with their looks. Rather, they just continued with their obsession and have more and more procedures, until they come to regret it.
Black women I hope you're not doing this. You don't need to. Most black women have been blessed. With natural big lips that ⚪️ people used to make fun of.
Ladies, do not do this. Men have never found it attractive. Just have a good diet and exercise and take care of yourself and you'll be attractive. Also don't do any of that botox crap either.
@John-du2mq I don't think men have any idea what is actually natural a lot of the celebs who aren't obviously botched have had so much work done, both female and male celebs
That part. I always think of Megan Good for example. In Black culture she is always hailed as one of the finest black actresses. Even today men all up and down her comment section comment on how "good she looks for 40" "aged like fine wine" "haven't aged a day" "black don't crack" etc etc..... All the while to the trained eye you can see her cheeks are pumped to the gods with filler and she definitely as Botox keeping that forehead stiff and waxxy (dead giveaway) Men should really take a backseat to this discussion because they are quite literally clueless. @@nonod5467
@@vb8801I'm gonna have a real unpopular but honest take here....but I can see that being sort of an advantage. I heard this a while ago as well especially for women when we take fat from our abdomen which is the area that tends to expand as get older...well if that means you put it in your cheeks and your cheeks stay plumped I see a win win lol. Because you're going to continue to lose volume in your face as you get older and your upper cheeks mid face especially is what ages you due to volume loss, well if transplanted fat is there and that fat never loses its volume 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️ I see it as the gift that keeps on giving lol Albeit if it's all done in a conservative amount.
I thought hailey had lip fillers too because of the “migration” but i found out that she actually has a “double lip line” similar to her mother, which apparently lots of people have. Maybe thats why she’s offended which is understandable.
@@OliviaFinley-p7wshe’s Australian 🇦🇺 😊. But as an Aussie myself she does talk a little too fast, but I think maybe ppl of Stephanie’s generation are used to this fast talking and edits with no pauses.

The contrast between Gary’s low and soothing voice and Stephanie’s high-pitched voice had me💀 (I love the content of both but I always listen to them separately lol)
Fillers have given these celebrities nasolabial folds way before their age.
I mean I had a small amount of fillers in my upper cheeks (in my 40’s) and it helped reduce my nasolabial folds
I think they don’t admit it to keep people speculating.
It is always better if people talk about them even if it's negative
How is having needles stuck in your face noninvasive?😮
it's technical, like an injection is non invasive where surgery mostly isn't
Thank you for this. So does anyone have suggestions for what would be a safer or better option for...say undereye troughs...instead of HA filler? If any.
I liked…went to like again! Love love love
hey doctor, these recent researches have come to worry me a little and i kind of don't know what to do now, my anxiety is kinda ticking.. over a year ago i had filler injected for my tear through in both eyes, very small amount (also i don't plan to do any more). i have never presented any bad symptoms and everything seems to work just fine. the doctor who did it had over 20 years of experience, was really honest about results and even talked me out of doing more stuff lol. so should i get any medical examination to see if the filler might be now going somewhere it shouldn't or something? i mean, if i do check ups with doctors i might still have the chance to dissolve it before something actually bad happens, if it will?
what’s a tear through in both eyes
@@polarbear67 sorry english is not my first language. i meant that i injected filler in both my left and right tear throughs. if you're questioning what a tear through is i think a simple google image will show you better
@polarbear67 tear trough.... the area coming down, across the face, from the inner corner of each eye.
girl why the f*ck did you do that… 🤦🏽 i would never do such a foolish risky procedure near my EYES. Smh. I wish you luck
I see that people like Stephanie here, but her videos (especially the thumbnails) give me a really weird taste. There’s this fixation on exposing women for 'ruining' their faces due to 'toxic beauty standards,' while she looks like just another insta influencer herself. There’s also another RUclipsr who makes similar videos, and every single one has ragebait titles like 'Look at this woman she looks crazy.' It’s almost like they’re trying to make themselves look better in comparison?
Anyone?
Ultimately she fits an idealised beauty standard, yes. I also think she is making the videos from a genuinely good place where she is angry about toxic standards and practises. However, she has worked out rage and shock gets views, likes and attention so now her videos are all pushed in this style. I think she could be more empathetic and more kind in what she does tbh, but then again - I also get with some people (like the kardashians, you have just had enough of their BS).
Easy for someone who looks like her. While I disagree with what a lot of what these people have done to their faces and think they don’t look good, she sounds like a mean girl. She could convey the same message with a different tone. It’s people like her that make people feel insecure. I find her very annoying and wish he’d stop highlighting her videos.
I love your content Dr. Gary - but I am really tired of all the negativity of fillers. Yes!! Absolutely girls start too early and some really overdo it - but, if it is used wisely it can enhance your contours and you could, together with other treatments, go without a facelift. What is more risky? A surgery or some fillers if done by a certified doctor?
even if done by a certified doctor you can still experience nerve damage or ocular occlusion or necrosis
Fillers are forever.
That one person, at around 15 mins in, has made her face look how those of use with autoimmune illness look with facial swelling and water retention in their face 😢 its so sad peoppe did this to themselves.
So glad I'm black and don't have to do any of these silly procedures that try to make black female features attainable 😂
Haha girl thissss.
Big lips aren't exclusive to blacks.
What I’ve noticed with all these trends thru the years… is that they LOVE black features….but not on black women. They take the beautiful features of black women and put them on white women bc it looks better and its more desirable that way.
Therapists do not prescribe medication and antidepressants are not for life unless in chronically depressed individuals. -psychNP fact check
I'm farting so much cause of my nose job
Oh no.... I was ten years ahead the trend 😂
I’ve had filler twice. A total of 1.5ml. Haven’t ‘topped up’ in 7 years and it’s still very much there. My lips have barely changed. I started suspecting filler didn’t just metabolise about 4 years ago.
I see girls who started filler around the same time I did and what they’ve done to their faces in a matter of a handful or so of years is WILD. It’s like they get filler blindness and just keep going and going. Super scary stuff.
I had a little filler in my tear through three years ago and it changed my life for the better. It was very subtle, it looks natural and three years later on it is still in place.
I just would like to know how to mitigate my 37 yo thinning undereye without the aid of fillers. Does anyone know?
Skin care. Eye cream goes on first ,sun block last. I'm using an eye cream with retinol in it to help stimulate collagen production at night and a caffeine eye cream in the morning.
Also try a diy lymphatic facial message. You can find videos on here all over find one you like. I also drink bone broth for collagen. The carrot and tumeric flavored ones arent that bad. They sell sipping broth now in the grocery store.
Oh and lots of vitamin c. It's not one thing you do it's many.
I've been using a retinol eye cream from beauty by joseon and seems to be "thickening" up
And I don’t think these are “ideal” faces. They all look the same and phony. The beautiful uniqueness of the pre-90’s is gone.
FILLA
Stephanie just put out a new video on Botox - do that one next :)!!
Hocam sana ulaşmak için servet lazım bizlerde buradan başarılarını izleriz yapacak bir şey yook selammlar bizlerden🇹🇷💫🪄👏🏼👍🏼❤️⭐⭐⭐🧿🧿👌🏼🐞🐞🐞😊
You think therapists just throw medications at people as fake solutions for real problems? That's both not accurate and a hypocritical accusation coming from a cosmetic surgeon. I've been to therapy at two different periods of my life discussed self esteem issues, all we do is talk about them, I've never at any time been put on any type of medications nor has it even been suggested. If I went to you, you would probably suggest procedures, wouldn't you?
I've had medications thrown at me for mh mental health issues. Anxiety and depression. Now Im 35 and have been slowly lowering the doses in order to get off the meds and Im finally about to start actual therapy for my anxiety. It does happen.
It would be weird if you went to him and he DIDN'T suggest procedures given what his job is.
... If you go to a plastic surgeon, they are probably going to suggest procedures, yes. That's how this generally works. Why would you go to a surgeon expecting psychopharmacological therapy?
@@agendacide75 It seems you miss understood. I'm not implying that you would go to a plastic surgeon in search of pschopharmacological therapy. People who are insecure about their appearance wouldn't go to a therapist for such, either, and probably wouldn't get it. I'm saying that it's hypocritical for a surgeon to imply that a psychotherapist would push you on to something you don't really need that may not be good for you or you may become dependent on when that's ALL a plastic surgeon does. And those cosmetic procedures may carry serious risks, worse than the side effects of the anti-depressants that a therapist probably won't give you, and may require lifetime maintainence, not much different than the scenario Dr. Linkov presented of being on "lifetime medication" (generally, you'd only be on anti-depressants until you're not depressed anymore, unless you actually have a depressive disorder, in which case you need them) while NOT fixing the problem. The celebrities we're seeing as examples here didn't just "fix" one feature they didn't feel good about and overcame their obsession with their looks. Rather, they just continued with their obsession and have more and more procedures, until they come to regret it.
Black women I hope you're not doing this. You don't need to. Most black women have been blessed. With natural big lips that ⚪️ people used to make fun of.
yea let's react to another video of hers, just because she's very succesful and looks extremely unrealistically beautiful herself.
It got you to click and comment on it. So apparently it's working 😊
Ladies, do not do this. Men have never found it attractive. Just have a good diet and exercise and take care of yourself and you'll be attractive. Also don't do any of that botox crap either.
@John-du2mq
I don't think men have any idea what is actually natural a lot of the celebs who aren't obviously botched have had so much work done, both female and male celebs
That part. I always think of Megan Good for example. In Black culture she is always hailed as one of the finest black actresses. Even today men all up and down her comment section comment on how "good she looks for 40" "aged like fine wine" "haven't aged a day" "black don't crack" etc etc.....
All the while to the trained eye you can see her cheeks are pumped to the gods with filler and she definitely as Botox keeping that forehead stiff and waxxy (dead giveaway)
Men should really take a backseat to this discussion because they are quite literally clueless. @@nonod5467
Can’t stand stephanie.
What about your own fat filler??
He talks about your own fat fillers in this video. The fat has "memory" so will cause more weight gain in your face than you'd normally get.
@@vb8801I'm gonna have a real unpopular but honest take here....but I can see that being sort of an advantage.
I heard this a while ago as well especially for women when we take fat from our abdomen which is the area that tends to expand as get older...well if that means you put it in your cheeks and your cheeks stay plumped I see a win win lol. Because you're going to continue to lose volume in your face as you get older and your upper cheeks mid face especially is what ages you due to volume loss, well if transplanted fat is there and that fat never loses its volume 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️ I see it as the gift that keeps on giving lol
Albeit if it's all done in a conservative amount.
From slits to oversized lips.😮😫👎
Why can't these people think for themselves??? Just too alarming!
Because critical thinking skills are massively lacking in modern-day education. Yes, it's disturbing.
I thought hailey had lip fillers too because of the “migration” but i found out that she actually has a “double lip line” similar to her mother, which apparently lots of people have.
Maybe thats why she’s offended which is understandable.
Again...people who cannot think.....weird world
No amount of filler is safe!
how many ppl cannot stand her voice ;_;
She speaks too fast. I watch her on 0,75
Like a British Minnie mouse or something
@@taniforniaI watch her at 1.5x, but that's probably because I also talk fast 😅
@@OliviaFinley-p7wshe’s Australian 🇦🇺 😊. But as an Aussie myself she does talk a little too fast, but I think maybe ppl of Stephanie’s generation are used to this fast talking and edits with no pauses.
I agree with the message but I don't like the messenger. I've watched her other videos and she oftens becomes a bully hiding from a moral message.
I totally get why you're leeching off Stephanie Lange's amazing content.
Привет хирургический врач! Можете сделать серию роликов про лица девушек в каждой стране с их отличиями и особенностями?
i am laughing that stephanie who has had so much done is doing these videos now. ... like really?
She admits that she had Botox years ago
