Please show before and after photos, either with or without makeup. The before photos feature little to no makeup, while the after photos showcase a significant amount of makeup. It’s not a fair comparison when the after photos have so much makeup on.
What are your thoughts on Sofwave to help maintain results from a facelift? It says it does not go as deep as the fat layer so it won’t dissolve fat. However it says they go 1.5 so that’s deeper than the 1 you recommend? Can you recommend the best treatments to maintain your facelift results as long as possible?
Very rough, difficult life of childhood abuse and domestic violence. My life has literally traipsed across my face. I look much older than my 57 years.
" If you are watching this video you probably want to look as young as you feel" No. I'm watching this video to reassire myself on a regular basis that not doing anything to my face is still the best decision ever 😄✨
I am SO grateful to have found you! I am getting close to 78 and have no intention of having surgery yet I see the young people in my family getting so many procedures done and they are only in their 30's and 40's! Their faces have become almost frozen ie little to no expression. I hope your message gets out and helps! Thank you for speaking up!
@@dramirkaram je suis une française de 50 ans et je rêverai de pouvoir bénéficier de votre expertise… je vous remercie de partager vos précieux conseils
Not to get all after-school special on you, but omg, I love you, doc! I love how knowledgeable you are and how well you break down the information. I had my facelift 2 years ago in San francisco and my dr. Was awesome. However, in the next 10 years, when i need another. I got you as my choice. I love everything about you. You have a wonderful personality, and I can tell you're not like some of the other plastic surgeons I've met. Keep up the awesome work on UA-cam, and you do such beautiful work on the ppl. You do work on. Kudos 👏 ❤
I am so glad I opted to age naturally. I also haven’t used creams/potions. Only cold pressed, organic rosehip seed oil, borage oil, and sometimes vitamin e. Haven’t tanned my face in decades and wear sunscreen. I believe not putting chemicals on my face helped. I am also vegan for the last 8 years. In my 60’s and happy with myself.
I used sunscreen for decades on my face and neck but neglected my forearms. Now at almost 70, the skin on my forearms, particularly my left (driver’s side) arm, bruises and tears when I bump it. I’ve been wearing sun protection for years now, but the damage has been done. I’m going to investigate laser treatment to prevent tearing and bruising.
Hi from Scotland. Thank you. Your advice is invaluable. As a spa/ holistic therapist and esthetician at the ripe old age of 54 years old I look 10 years younger. So many people don't believe my age lol. At the age of 39 I was in the states for a holiday with my family. We were at a restaurant and I asked for an alcoholic drink. I got asked for ID lol. My 16 year old son was killing himself laughing. I have NEVER had Botox, fillers, surgery etc. skin care is imperative. Cleanse, tone, moisturise, use face masks, go for facials if you want to. As discussed, sun screen, sleep, hydrated with water, nutrition, exercise, very minimal alcohol if any, no processed foods. Reduce stress if you can. I use Gua sha rose quartz to stimulate my lymphatic system and blood supply, meditate and crystals healing. Hydrotherapy and cold plundging is also great for circulation, energy and mental acuity. It's time we were more holistic and natural in processes. Mother earth protects us if we listen.
Are you also doing research on her behalf how cancerous and untested sunscreen ingredients are and that they stay in your bloodstream for 30+ days from only 1 application? And that you should apply it every 2 hours even on a cloudy, rainy day? And that it's "not" a big problem at all coz it's F up her hormones, that a lot of ingredients in it are hormonal disrupters and F with your glands also, thyroid etc? Didn't think so:) But what you can do is love and blindly trust your government, because their priority number one is your safety and health.... Just after profits! 🤣🤦
I m in my early 40s & keen for RF micro needling to restore facial tightening. Fat loss has always been my concern. Now… after listening this , lost all my hope . 😢 Not sure how frequent should i have surgical lift However, really grateful for this honest information
This was really a good video!!! It summarized all about rejuvenation. The most important part was that to “take care your skin correctly until you meet the right surgeon”. That is what I’m going to do even though it takes years and years but not like decades 😂😅
I've been researching for 3 to 5 years now for a good facial plastic surgeon, I found one in Chicago, I live near Chicago he checks all the boxes that you have talked about in your videos, I haven't had the surgery yet but I will in the next few years. During consultation he told me I've taken good care of my skin and that is key I will get a good result, I will have lower face, neck and upper eyes done.
I really trust you. You come across as so authentic and truly interested in educating people. I thank you for this- your videos have been very helpful to me.
Dr Karim you and a couple of others Gary ? (mostly hair transplants) and Dr Raj are THE BEST on these channels - so helpful for hard working people like me who can’t afford it all and your videos are so welcome. I do what I can afford - wish I could do more but I also feel you have to give into nature by degrees to look natural which to me is the most important thing in all this trying to stay the hand of time or correct what nature (dna) handed out at birth. I support it all - (cosmetic enhancement) - and want it all. I’m appreciate aesthetics in every part of life - including people of all types and varieties. Pleaseim an artist - even the ugly is beautiful when seen through a prism - my prism anyway. Except for myself!! Please keep bestowing us your valuable time and great knowledge. So very appreciated.
I got one session of Radiofrequency microneedling 6 months ago. They did more than 1mm on my cheeks😢 I lost collagen and my skin lost firmness and hydration.
@ it happened to me and to lot of other people who got damaged from these devices, so yes it’s possible. No one is looking for magic, we spent so much money on these procedures to get good results not damages.
What is the ideal age for a face lift? I’m 47 and have followed all the advice: spf in the sun, lots of water, not over filled and no prior facial surgeries. Thank you!
Thanks to you I can tell that I lost subcutaneous fat from those procedures and no longer get them, but it’s too late now. Thanks for this valuable information!
Thank you Dr. You are completely right. I had total face left surgery in my country with the best surgeon in 1997 and still look wonderful . Gettings from Texas ❤
Also about #1: If you're so worried about vitamin D, just take supplements. It's better to have too much than too little. I live in Sweden; it's kind of a must here in winter either way.
58 years old. I use vitamin C topically in the morning and highest strength Retin A at night and hexane-free organic castor oil in dark bottle at night. I rarely go one day without people asking me what I do for my skin and are shocked at my age. Less is more. Oh- and I take bioidentical estradiol and progesterone. They are the fountain of youth.
I’m 75 years old, and I surely do wish I had seen this video before I got the Morpheus 8 treatments (which were suggested by my dermatologist.) It’s been a year now, and I ended up looking older, not younger! Now I’m stuck with more wrinkles than I had before the treatments. The thing is, I didn’t even go to him asking for them. I wanted a simple light chemical peel, and he suggested Morpheus 8 instead. 😢😢😢
@@island661right it's called Botox freeze lip injections are fine if you go to the right doctor I got collagen and juvederm cuz I didn't have an upper lip lol
He's 100% right about Morpheus 8 . I'm glad I found him here in time to stop doing it before it was too late. I had three done and my face now looks a bit less full as a result , but luckily it's mostly noticeable around my outer eyes which I'm hoping a fat transfer may help when I go see Dr. Karam, hopefully next year ! Thanks for saving my face from any further damage from Morpheus 8, Dr Karam...
Lucky you saw the new videos because there was a video of him saying it was great when it came out,I was looking to get it because of him,luckily it was too expensive 4me😅
my doc in Turkey said he would give me "a liiitle" brow lift. I endet up looking like Mrs. Spock. That was almost two years ago, it es coming down again, but I don`t look like myself. I regret the browlift, not the facelift.
Who was your doctor and where? United States doctors are too expensive. Your Plastic surgery went well. I am researching doctors in Turkey to see. Please reply. This doctor has fantastic advice‼️
Great video! I think Fillers are the biggest mistake anyone to make. It just makes people look alien and waxy. I see beautiful women my age start to look just bizarre and it seems like it’s addictive bc they just keep going.
One thing I would recommend is make sure you get a surgeon who doesn't assess you and tell you what you need but instead waits for you to tell them what you're looking for and why. The other thing I would suggest is make sure you find someone who points out your positive traits and assets and it makes you feel beautiful whether you get the surgery or not. I love that about my searching. He even said that he wishes he could have claimed that he created my cheekbones that he loved so much. Antique complimented my chin and said it would be perfect for the procedure that I got. As the saying goes good plastic surgery should whisper not roar. The best compliment I've gotten afterward is that people say I look the same.
Thank YOU!!! You're so kind to share your knowledge. I've been using trifecta since discovering you almost a year ago. I love love love the results coupled with the simplicity! I can't wait to get on your schedule!
Thanks doctor❤ 43 and I'm starting to do some research to just feel like myself again 😊I love aging it's going to happen but just a little refreshing of the face and neck
I understand the interest in non-surgical skin tightening and lifting treatments, as many brands and options claim to deliver these results. While I’m not commenting on specific brands, I generally find that non-surgical lifting treatments are unreliable and can actually have drawbacks. They often come with side effects, may worsen signs of aging over time, and, in my experience, are not sustainable treatment options. For those looking for a true, lasting lift, surgical options provide a more effective and consistent outcome.
Make them affordable for us non millionaires it's truly unfair what you charge. I'm going to Turkey to have everything done by one of the top surgeons there and it's a fraction a small fraction of what you charge!@@dramirkaram
Best video you have done. You could even have cut it down some. Tell us what to do and what not to do. Give relevant facts - that’s all I need! Life is too busy to sit down and listen to fluff.
Thanks for this message. I'm considering some sort of aging help. I have never had any surgery or fillers. I have a great Board Certified Plastic surgeon that is great. Lots of good stuff in your video.
@ nope, i mean work out your facial muscles, like you work out your body muscles, which has the result that you build up natural volume in your face and has a lifting effect. If you look at the anatomy of your head, it‘s full of muscles , including the tongue, but we never work out these muscles lk we do with our body muscles thus skin gets lose in the face. I joined a course with an expert ( not one of these hundreds of u tube face yoga „ experts“ ) and it works! It takes time, daily exercise for 20 min, but its absolutely game changing when u see the results, open eyes with lifted skin , full cheeks, no double chin etc. The expert is Hanna Sacher and she has an you tube channel, but this give people only an idea about her 3 step lifting, volume and wrinkle free course She is absolutely amazing
Thank you for such an informative and educational video Dr. Karam. This is why I love skin School. It is what I can share with family and friends. They need to know these things and I don't like needles so I've never had anything done. Thank you so very much for this video
Very helpful, it's easy to get on a train of trying to look younger and go too far. I couldn't agree more on the research point and not using fillers. I had an amazing plastic surgeon do my facelift (best thing I ever did for myself). I'm now 65 years old, look 10 years younger, and feel amazing. No-one can tell I've had work done, because I look natural. My sagging jowls, crepey neck, and loose eyelids have gone, but I still look like me. He refused to let me do anything extreme (I considered a chin implant and he talked me out of it, saying wasn't necessary and would make me look 'over done'. I was told I could do this all with filler, but I don't believe that's true and so it's good to have it confirmed. If anyone in the UK wants to know who did my work, I'm happy to share.
Dr. Karim, thank you for caring enough to share your knowledge! I wondered what you thought of the product Renuva? I have been told this might be a good option to replace facial volume. Thank you very much.
I wish I could afford this surgeon. I am based in the UK and after 2 years watching this channel, I knew I was ready for a facelift. I went to a consultation with Plastic surgeon in London and one more local to where I live.Both said that the jowls were not bad enough for a surgery. I am sure that this surgeon will see why I want surgery. I don't want to wait for another 5 years until they get bad enough. I wouldn't be able to tolerate this. Are there Plastic surgeons who specialise treating people who want to maintain their looks rather than fixing face which has aged enough? I need to find a surgeon in the UK who can help
Look into endoscopic lift. I’m looking into this option. I also have only slight jowls and slight sagging (age 52). There’s also much less scarring and down time and more subtle natural results. Plus much cheaper.
CO2 lasers are generally more appropriate for individuals who are starting to experience more advanced signs of aging or have significant skin concerns. This treatment is more intense than other laser treatments, so it's often recommended for those with deeper wrinkles, significant sun damage, or uneven skin texture. That said, it’s crucial to ensure that CO2 lasers are administered by an experienced provider who understands how to adjust the treatment based on skin type and specific concerns. The results can be significant and long-lasting, especially for those seeking to boost collagen and address deeper skin concerns.
I follow a couple on UA-cam that never uses sunscreen and they look at least 25 years younger than their actual ages 54 and 62. They use nutrition as their “sunscreen”. I couldn’t follow their diet because it’s pretty strict. They’ve been this way for at least 30 years and it’s working for them.
I always used sunblock on my face and at 63 I now have 2 basal cells up close to my eye. Having Mohs surgery in January. I live in Florida and the place where they are, are always also under my sunglasses. Anyone who doesn’t use sunscreen could have skin cancer later.
When I look at all these over operated, overfilled scary scarecrows who unsuccessfully try to combat aging, I wonder if it isn't much better to accept to age gracefully. Prot😂ect your skin, avoid a too dry atmosphere in your house , drink enough water, use collegene, and leave your face alone! This is a mostly a US thing. In europe most women respect themselves enough to not ridiculise themselves by transforming themselves into caricatures
But when you look at Dr. Amir’s facelift patients they look fabulous and natural, so that is an attractive option for those of us who can afford it and are not resigned to living with sagging necks and faces. As far as it being a U.S. thing, that’s just not true. Plastic surgery is widely accepted in South America, Asia, the Middle East and western Europe, especially Spain, Belgium and Germany. In France, women put a lot of effort into hiding the fact that they’ve had plastic surgery but last year more than 27,000 rhinoplasties were performed there. Scandinavia is packed with plastic surgeons; there is a list of “21 best plastic surgeons” for Stockholm alone. It’s definitely not primarily a U.S. thing.
Hello, Dr. Karem - I have been using Skin Better medical grade products for years (Alto Advanced Defense and Repair Serum - an antioxidant formula with Vitamins C & E and 17 free radical fighters, and Intensive Alpha Ret Overnight Cream - a high strength retinoid with lactic and glycolic acids that is very effective yet gentle). However, these products are extremely expensive. I admire your knowledge base, experience in your industry, and candor in your videos as well as the educational approach you take in all your communications. I would love to switch to your Karem MD skincare products but can’t identify the differences between them and the Skin Better products I’ve described. Can you provide more detail about your products to help me understand if switching would be beneficial, and how? I am aware that your comparable products are more cost effective, which is great!
I was genuinely wondering if sunscreen at home is need particularly during winter times. I am a student and somedays i don’t go out at all. Should I wear it ? Thnx
I started skin care routine that you recommended using Retin A. Texture looks great but Im noticing little freckles coming out. I do use 50 spf zinc oxide sunscreen. Is this normal? Will freckles go away after a while?
Thank you doctor for this free content I've learned so much about keeping my skin more youthful. One of the best things I've learned from used to use sunscreen daily I usually apply sunscreen 2 to 3 times a day depending on how much I'll be outside. My question is how much sunscreen to put on my face daily ? Do I use a teaspoon amount or more? I generally use a 35 to 50 SPF Thank you so much
Thanks for another informative video Dr Karam! I recently had a consultation on Potenza RF + micro needling where the doctor mentioned fat loss as a potential side effect. Since I have some excess fat in my lower face, I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to have them target some of that fat very conservatively or if you think that's simply a no? Thanks in advance!
How about regular microneedling dr.? I also do some skinbooster session with some strong acid which does not flake the skin to bad. My skin looks firm and more even than before after four sessions of booster and three sessions of microneedling (which is quite painful to be honest and gives a downfall (red skin) for a day of two). Curious to hear your expert opinion.

Hi, one question what you believe about prp treatments on your face? its worthy? (28-40)
Please show before and after photos, either with or without makeup. The before photos feature little to no makeup, while the after photos showcase a significant amount of makeup. It’s not a fair comparison when the after photos have so much makeup on.

The quality of the Vitamin D supplement is very important too.

It is critical and quality is as well but too much can be a problem. It’s a fat soluble vitamin.

Oh the visual of the morpheus 8 and the skin & fat and different mm, was sooo helpful in understanding why!
my doc in Turkey said he would give me "a liiitle" brow lift. I endet up looking like Mrs. Spock. That was almost two years ago, it es coming down again, but I don`t look like myself. I regret the browlift, not the facelift.
Who was your doctor and where? United States doctors are too expensive. Your Plastic surgery went well.
I am researching doctors in Turkey to see. Please reply.
This doctor has fantastic advice‼️
Great video! I think Fillers are the biggest mistake anyone to make. It just makes people look alien and waxy. I see beautiful women my age start to look just bizarre and it seems like it’s addictive bc they just keep going.
One thing I would recommend is make sure you get a surgeon who doesn't assess you and tell you what you need but instead waits for you to tell them what you're looking for and why. The other thing I would suggest is make sure you find someone who points out your positive traits and assets and it makes you feel beautiful whether you get the surgery or not. I love that about my searching. He even said that he wishes he could have claimed that he created my cheekbones that he loved so much. Antique complimented my chin and said it would be perfect for the procedure that I got.
As the saying goes good plastic surgery should whisper not roar.
The best compliment I've gotten afterward is that people say I look the same.
Thank YOU!!!
You're so kind to share your knowledge. I've been using trifecta since discovering you almost a year ago. I love love love the results coupled with the simplicity! I can't wait to get on your schedule!
It's my pleasure. I'm so glad you're on Trifecta and seeing the results it delivers!
Thanks doctor❤ 43 and I'm starting to do some research to just feel like myself again 😊I love aging it's going to happen but just a little refreshing of the face and neck
This video is such a wake-up call! I had no idea I was making some of these mistakes.
Your work is amazing doctor!!! 👏 im a Licensed Skin Care Specialist and Licensed Instructor. I luv ❤️ your videos!!!
This guy is just so impressive. 🤩🤓
What about RF without any needling? Is that useful or ok?
Dr Karam I’m dying to know what you think of Fotona 4D and HiFu - please do a video of these 🙏 love from Australia
I understand the interest in non-surgical skin tightening and lifting treatments, as many brands and options claim to deliver these results. While I’m not commenting on specific brands, I generally find that non-surgical lifting treatments are unreliable and can actually have drawbacks. They often come with side effects, may worsen signs of aging over time, and, in my experience, are not sustainable treatment options. For those looking for a true, lasting lift, surgical options provide a more effective and consistent outcome.
@@dramirkaramso is fractional co2 off the table ? Like it or hate it? ❤
Make them affordable for us non millionaires it's truly unfair what you charge. I'm going to Turkey to have everything done by one of the top surgeons there and it's a fraction a small fraction of what you charge!@@dramirkaram
I would like to know about sculptra o radiesse?
It works to help your skin smooth and hydrate and plump BUT if you want a facelift later it makes it much much harder to do
@@tamicampa2477why is that?
Thanks Doc for this honest info
My pleasure!
What is the best micro-needling should one get them? Thank you!
I'm a new subscriber and your videos make sense. I have a microcurrent device and was wandering if im wasting my time using it
Excellent, honest video. Thank you.
Best video you have done. You could even have cut it down some. Tell us what to do and what not to do. Give relevant facts - that’s all I need! Life is too busy to sit down and listen to fluff.
Uplifting advice (no pun intended). Thank you.
Haha thank you!
Thanks for this message. I'm considering some sort of aging help. I have never had any surgery or fillers. I have a great Board Certified Plastic surgeon that is great. Lots of good stuff in your video.
Dr. Karam, could you please tell us about a sunblock for the body as well? Which sunblock would be best?
Another great and educational video - thanks Dr Karam!
Glad you enjoyed it!
What about RF home devices? Are they ok to use? Thank you so much for all your information.
Great Advice Dr.🙌🏼
Who would you recommend for hooded eyes, I’m petrified of things , especially my eyes,
Can you please help me with this???
Thanks a lot for those warnings. There are facial exercices too that can help a little.
They can help a lot, i am in a facial training course ( not facial yoga) and i saw outstanding results
@@Lulubabylulu Nice! By facial training, do you mean working on the facial muscles with your hands?
@ nope, i mean work out your facial muscles, like you work out your body muscles, which has the result that you build up natural volume in your face and has a lifting effect. If you look at the anatomy of your head, it‘s full of muscles , including the tongue, but we never work out these muscles lk we do with our body muscles thus skin gets lose in the face. I joined a course with an expert ( not one of these hundreds of u tube face yoga „ experts“ ) and it works! It takes time, daily exercise for 20 min, but its absolutely game changing when u see the results, open eyes with lifted skin , full cheeks, no double chin etc.
The expert is Hanna Sacher and she has an you tube channel, but this give people only an idea about her 3 step lifting, volume and wrinkle free course
She is absolutely amazing
Thank you for such an informative and educational video Dr. Karam. This is why I love skin School. It is what I can share with family and friends. They need to know these things and I don't like needles so I've never had anything done. Thank you so very much for this video
My pleasure, thanks for watching!
Should I have hair transplant before or after a facelift...???
Thank you so much for your advice though. I’m not a dermatologist. I agree with you 100%. Good job doctor!
Any advice on breast enhancement and or tummy tucks ( Fit / 56/ Dallas girl/ virgin to cosmetic surgery) Thank you !! Following your advice!! ❤😊
Very helpful, it's easy to get on a train of trying to look younger and go too far. I couldn't agree more on the research point and not using fillers. I had an amazing plastic surgeon do my facelift (best thing I ever did for myself). I'm now 65 years old, look 10 years younger, and feel amazing. No-one can tell I've had work done, because I look natural. My sagging jowls, crepey neck, and loose eyelids have gone, but I still look like me. He refused to let me do anything extreme (I considered a chin implant and he talked me out of it, saying wasn't necessary and would make me look 'over done'. I was told I could do this all with filler, but I don't believe that's true and so it's good to have it confirmed. If anyone in the UK wants to know who did my work, I'm happy to share.
Dr. Karim, thank you for caring enough to share your knowledge! I wondered what you thought of the product Renuva? I have been told this might be a good option to replace facial volume. Thank you very much.
I wish I could afford this surgeon. I am based in the UK and after 2 years watching this channel, I knew I was ready for a facelift. I went to a consultation with Plastic surgeon in London and one more local to where I live.Both said that the jowls were not bad enough for a surgery. I am sure that this surgeon will see why I want surgery. I don't want to wait for another 5 years until they get bad enough. I wouldn't be able to tolerate this.
Are there Plastic surgeons who specialise treating people who want to maintain their looks rather than fixing face which has aged enough? I need to find a surgeon in the UK who can help
Look into endoscopic lift. I’m looking into this option. I also have only slight jowls and slight sagging (age 52). There’s also much less scarring and down time and more subtle natural results. Plus much cheaper.
How is it up to them whether you have surgery or not? Surely there's more surgeon's you can check out who accept it's your decision not theirs?
To be honest these sound like good surgeons to me…
Where in the uk are you based?
@evarkf thank you for this suggestion! I will look into it!
Could you please do an episode on C02 laser treatments . Yes or no?
He has a video about lasers and talks about it
What are your thoughts on hyperdiluted radiesse?
Is microneedling good though? Minus the RF?
Thoughts on CO2 lasers for collagen stimulation?
Yeah i find it strange that it will stimulated collagen but guess its true cuz the ppl who do lasers always looks younger
CO2 lasers are generally more appropriate for individuals who are starting to experience more advanced signs of aging or have significant skin concerns. This treatment is more intense than other laser treatments, so it's often recommended for those with deeper wrinkles, significant sun damage, or uneven skin texture.
That said, it’s crucial to ensure that CO2 lasers are administered by an experienced provider who understands how to adjust the treatment based on skin type and specific concerns. The results can be significant and long-lasting, especially for those seeking to boost collagen and address deeper skin concerns.
***Thank you for the Educational advise !!! 👏👏👏
What about face yoga does that help?
No
Yes but you have to be consistent. Btw it was originally called facercize, and started by Romana Devry.
Massages and faceyoga help me a lot! Search for Aysel facemassage she gives great advice .
What about Endolift for under eye bags? Would you recommend?
Great video! Thank you!
Hi dc. How about thermage? Is that acceptable ?
Congratulations on this video. Nice information.
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Doc. Where is your clinic? 😊
I follow a couple on UA-cam that never uses sunscreen and they look at least 25 years younger than their actual ages 54 and 62. They use nutrition as their “sunscreen”. I couldn’t follow their diet because it’s pretty strict. They’ve been this way for at least 30 years and it’s working for them.
interesting. what is their channel?
@ The Healthy Life
I always used sunblock on my face and at 63 I now have 2 basal cells up close to my eye. Having Mohs surgery in January.
I live in Florida and the place where they are, are always also under my sunglasses. Anyone who doesn’t use sunscreen could have skin cancer later.
They may still avoid the sun, use hats, sunglasses etc.
Thank you for sharing the truth about this!
When I look at all these over operated, overfilled scary scarecrows who unsuccessfully try to combat aging, I wonder if it isn't much better to accept to age gracefully. Prot😂ect your skin, avoid a too dry atmosphere in your house , drink enough water, use collegene, and leave your face alone! This is a mostly a US thing. In europe most women respect themselves enough to not ridiculise themselves by transforming themselves into caricatures
But when you look at Dr. Amir’s facelift patients they look fabulous and natural, so that is an attractive option for those of us who can afford it and are not resigned to living with sagging necks and faces. As far as it being a U.S. thing, that’s just not true. Plastic surgery is widely accepted in South America, Asia, the Middle East and western Europe, especially Spain, Belgium and Germany. In France, women put a lot of effort into hiding the fact that they’ve had plastic surgery but last year more than 27,000 rhinoplasties were performed there. Scandinavia is packed with plastic surgeons; there is a list of “21 best plastic surgeons” for Stockholm alone. It’s definitely not primarily a U.S. thing.
Hello, Dr. Karem - I have been using Skin Better medical grade products for years (Alto Advanced Defense and Repair Serum - an antioxidant formula with Vitamins C & E and 17 free radical fighters, and Intensive Alpha Ret Overnight Cream - a high strength retinoid with lactic and glycolic acids that is very effective yet gentle). However, these products are extremely expensive. I admire your knowledge base, experience in your industry, and candor in your videos as well as the educational approach you take in all your communications.
I would love to switch to your Karem MD skincare products but can’t identify the differences between them and the Skin Better products I’ve described. Can you provide more detail about your products to help me understand if switching would be beneficial, and how? I am aware that your comparable products are more cost effective, which is great!
I was genuinely wondering if sunscreen at home is need particularly during winter times. I am a student and somedays i don’t go out at all. Should I wear it ? Thnx
Thank you for this eye-opening viedo!
I started skin care routine that you recommended using Retin A. Texture looks great but Im noticing little freckles coming out. I do use 50 spf zinc oxide sunscreen. Is this normal? Will freckles go away after a while?
What is your opinion on the various laser treatments?
You can learn my thoughts on that topic here ua-cam.com/video/tmCHcfVxKao/v-deo.html
Love your information!❤
Thank you!
Thank you doctor for this free content I've learned so much about keeping my skin more youthful. One of the best things I've learned from used to use sunscreen daily I usually apply sunscreen 2 to 3 times a day depending on how much I'll be outside. My question is how much sunscreen to put on my face daily ? Do I use a teaspoon amount or more? I generally use a 35 to 50 SPF
Thank you so much
That depends on your face size, enough to cover your face and neck. I also suggest you reapply at least once if you're outside at all.
@@dramirkaram thank you
what is your opinion on facial threading?
I’m seriously considering this and wanted any feedback or thoughts ,,,
heard that its bad, and only is good during 6 months, dont do it, a waste of money
Thank you SO much for the excellent, candid advice you always give! - - And the Trifecta is awesome!!!
You are so welcome! I'm glad you're enjoying the Trifecta.
Can you please talk about Hifu and the benefits or disadvantages please 🙏
Thank you❤
So helpful, thank you so much
Thanks for another informative video Dr Karam! I recently had a consultation on Potenza RF + micro needling where the doctor mentioned fat loss as a potential side effect. Since I have some excess fat in my lower face, I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to have them target some of that fat very conservatively or if you think that's simply a no? Thanks in advance!
How about regular microneedling dr.? I also do some skinbooster session with some strong acid which does not flake the skin to bad. My skin looks firm and more even than before after four sessions of booster and three sessions of microneedling (which is quite painful to be honest and gives a downfall (red skin) for a day of two). Curious to hear your expert opinion.
Dr. You are excellent! Thank you !!
You are welcome!
