Dr Lyle with Lyle Plastic Surgery Talking New Devices They Have · The Erica Show

  It's iHeartRadio Erica DeLong here with doctor Lyle with Lyle Plastic Surgery and Aesthetic Center,
• 0:05
  and doctor Lyle comes on a regular basis giving us the scoop on how
• 0:08
  to remain useful, Which you have new devices that we need to hear about.
• 0:12
  Good to see you. Yeah, you know, as we've talked about
• 0:15
  in the past, I have a lot of devices in my office that are
• 0:19
  sort of non invasive, and I want to talk a little bit about some
• 0:23
  of the things that I use during surgery that are tools or instruments that help
• 0:29
  enhance results. So one of them is and these are not really new,
• 0:35
  so to speak, but they are. I'm starting to use them more.
• 0:39
  I'm learning more about them. One of them is a device called Renewvion,
• 0:44
  which is a basically a skin tightener, but it's an invasive skin tightener.
• 0:49
  It's not like these external treatments that you put on and you need a series
• 0:55
  of treatments to help tighten skin. But this is one you use as like
• 1:00
  an adjunct to surgery. So if you do liposuction or you do some other
• 1:04
  treatments that it's the only FDA clear device that actually induces radiofrequency energy Okay,
• 1:14
  you know that's heat. Basically, anything that's gonna shrink collagen, which is
• 1:19
  the target of skin tightening, uses radiofrequency energy and it delivers it in with
• 1:26
  helium gas. And I may have talked about this a while back, but
• 1:30
  now, how is this different from all therapy or soft wave which they're also
• 1:36
  heating up right, So those are external devices. They use ultrasonic energy.
• 1:42
  But a common denominator of these things is that energy is creates heat, and
• 1:48
  this is radiofrequency energy. But what it does is it delivers like a spark
• 1:53
  almost and you have to deliver it with a gas. So the gas that
• 1:59
  we use helium and helium will cool that spark down immediately so you don't burn
• 2:06
  the skin. So obviously you have to be very skilled to use this device
• 2:09
  and know what you're doing. You do, but you also the failsafe of
• 2:15
  this is that the device actually has this built in system to prevent you from
• 2:22
  burning patients. Like some of the devices I've had in the past, to
• 2:25
  deliver energy, you have to monitor the temperature of it so that you don't
• 2:30
  burn skin because what you're doing is you're trying to heat the collagen fibers that
• 2:36
  you've exposed through liposuction or other means. But this is inside the skin,
• 2:40
  not on the surface of the skin. So then so the gas goes into
• 2:46
  the tissue. So literally when you're doing it, your tissue kind of puffs
• 2:50
  up a little bit and you have to have a little tiny nick in the
• 2:53
  skin to let the air get out of the gas get out, and it
• 2:58
  will heat that cologen that it's exposed to up to eighty five degrees celsius,
• 3:02
  which is like that would burn your skin, but it cools it down immediately,
• 3:07
  so you don't even have to monitor the skin because it's not going to
• 3:09
  burn you unless you touch the thing to the skin. And that's where the
• 3:13
  skill and the safety is involved. And this is super important. So you're
• 3:16
  going in to get LiPo because you've got that bold or maybe your enter thighed,
• 3:22
  but you need that tightening to help keep things smooth because if not,
• 3:25
  it can still be dimply regardless of getting a lip or suction. Right,
• 3:29
  So, like for instance, liposuction, the best patients have tight skin and
• 3:34
  just that deposits well. You know, maybe in your twenties you have that,
• 3:38
  but as you get older and you have kids, you don't have that
• 3:42
  and you lose that, you know, you lose the elasticity. And so
• 3:46
  one example is, you know, liposuction. So I have a device called
• 3:52
  Vaser, which is an ultrasonic energy device that helps to shatter the fat and
• 3:57
  then you still have to suck suction it out that has some ability to tighten.
• 4:01
  As a matter of fact, I liked that device because it does tighten
• 4:04
  skin more than traditional liposuction. But Renewvion is like an add on, so
• 4:12
  you don't have to use it for everyone, but if you're really trying to
• 4:15
  tighten the skin up at the time of liposuction, there's some people are using
• 4:19
  it for even facial surgery. They now have a new smaller hand piece that
• 4:27
  you can make a little nick in the skin and tighten the skin around the
• 4:30
  face. So this is some some newer add ons to this device that I've
• 4:38
  had the device for about three years. But I just got back from Las
• 4:41
  Vegas where they had their what they call their users meetings, So it was
• 4:45
  only people that got invited were people that have the device, so they weren't
• 4:47
  trying to sell you it. They were just trying to kind of educate you.
• 4:53
  So I spent you know, a day, two days there, just
• 4:56
  learning new indications, new things, some very innovative people out there that are
• 5:02
  taking that same technology but now using it for other things. Now, do
• 5:06
  you see the results instantly or is it kind of like you have to wait
• 5:10
  for swelling to go down afterwards? You have to wait for you to wait.
• 5:14
  You have to wait. And so that's the that's the bottom. That's
• 5:16
  the nature of all devices like this. The only thing that truly you'll see
• 5:20
  an immediate result, and in most cases is like surgical procedures where you're cutting
• 5:27
  and pulling in your you know, removing extra skin, facelifting, breastlifting.
• 5:31
  But even that requires downtown for the swelling to go down. Yeah. Yeah,
• 5:35
  And so I always tell people, I mean, three months is sort
• 5:39
  of a target, you know, and things get better even at six months.
• 5:44
  But you know, we generally tell patients for almost anything we do,
• 5:47
  you know you're going to see your major improvement at about three months. Now,
• 5:51
  that doesn't mean you don't see some improvement or sometimes major improvement early.
• 5:57
  You know, things like an eye lid surgery, I mean eyelid surgery,
• 6:00
  you usually see it like within a couple of weeks. A tummy tuck and
• 6:06
  and some other things. You know, yes, you'll see an immediate difference,
• 6:09
  but it takes time for swelling and things like that. And it's the
• 6:13
  same with this device, the same the same kind of time. It takes
• 6:16
  time for the collagen to shrink. It's not I wish we had a shrink
• 6:20
  wrapping device that just you know, instantly, yeah, instantly, like you
• 6:24
  like put a vacuum around it and sucks it. And I mean we don't
• 6:28
  have that now. Questions about anti aging, so renev On, this is
• 6:31
  the new device. You've had it for three years, but it's becoming more
• 6:34
  and more popular. Are there other devices that are very beneficial for women and
• 6:40
  men that are trying to you know, stay as youthful as possible as long
• 6:43
  as they can. Yeah, yeah, I mean I have I have like
• 6:46
  what we call non invasive, So those are external heating devices, and one
• 6:49
  of them also uses radio frequency energy. I have a device called Sinosure's Temperature,
• 6:59
  which is a external heating It takes multiple treatments. It's not going to
• 7:04
  give you the same sort of dramatic results, but we're finding it's good for
• 7:09
  cellulite and you know, generalize loose skin. I think it's still the holy
• 7:15
  grail to find something that's going to be like a one time thing. You
• 7:19
  mentioned software for all therapy. Those are things that even you know when you
• 7:25
  do them, you're not no one's going to tell you that, Yeah,
• 7:28
  I look at yourself in a week and you look how good you look?
• 7:30
  It takes at least three months and some time I did software with you,
• 7:33
  and your tag was so knowledgeable, but she's like, you have to have
• 7:36
  patience. That's part of the process. You didn't get like this overnight.
• 7:40
  It takes some time to get it tightened back up right. And honestly,
• 7:44
  that's why whenever you're doing this, you really have to look at before and
• 7:46
  after pictures, and that's why it's so important. Whether it's one of those
• 7:51
  devices or botox or fillers. A lot of times you come in for one
• 7:58
  of these treatments and you you want to look good right away, but you
• 8:03
  don't look good right away, and like skincare regimens, you just are appeal
• 8:07
  or something like that. You might look good when it first comes off,
• 8:11
  you know, the peel, but you know it takes time for things to
• 8:16
  develop, and that's that's one of the things about aging. Is that it
• 8:20
  didn't. You didn't age in three months, You aged in many years.
• 8:24
  And to be able to turn back the clock in just you know, one
• 8:28
  week or two weeks, it's unrealistic. I haven't seeing a lot of stuff
• 8:33
  on TikTok, you know, it's like the doctor world of TikTok. How
• 8:35
  they're saying, well, first of all the fake botox claims where there was
• 8:39
  nine different states affected, and also that botox makes you look older. Do
• 8:43
  you agree or disagree with that? Well, I disagree with botos making you
• 8:48
  look older, and you know toxins in general. But I think if you
• 8:54
  I think what happens is after a while you you you age in the boat
• 9:00
  is going to hold back the the early signs of aging. But once you
• 9:05
  start getting there, I don't care how much botox you use, You're never
• 9:07
  going to hold back the hands of time. Right. And so then sometimes
• 9:11
  if you do botox when you've already started to get some established wrinkles, it
• 9:16
  becomes more noticeable. Like the more wrinkles and lines you have and then you're
• 9:22
  trying to defeat them with botox, the more noticeable. So when I see
• 9:26
  young people doing it, you know, they call it like baby botox.
• 9:31
  Baby. I mean, I've done it for women in their twenties and you're
• 9:35
  trying to just like knock down like the frown muscles. Well, those frown
• 9:39
  muscles aren't creating wrinkles at that age, but eventually they do. And then
• 9:46
  so I do think that as you get older, you're injector. This is
• 9:50
  why it's good to have someone that ages with you, has to learn your
• 9:56
  face. And so that's why I've always advocated. I used to do my
• 10:00
  own boatox for patients, so you get to know them and then you know,
• 10:03
  ten years later they're back and you're you're actually using maybe less or you're
• 10:07
  not doing the same areas. So that's why it's important to have a good
• 10:11
  injector that you can you know, you can go back and like, hey,
• 10:16
  you know you adjusted my dose and it didn't look that great, So
• 10:18
  can you can I come back in a couple of weeks and they'll give you
• 10:22
  a little touch up, you know, if you just go to like whoever's
• 10:26
  having a group on or I don't even know if the use that term anymore,
• 10:28
  but like you know, like a sale right for a unit, it's
• 10:33
  like it's not you have to. It's an art to that. And I'm
• 10:37
  getting off the subject a little bit, but I really feel strongly that having
• 10:41
  good people experience people really makes a difference in fillers and botox and of course
• 10:46
  devices, even the devices that I have, you know, you learn,
• 10:52
  even the newer ones. You know, you you keep learning about them.
• 10:56
  The doctors that started protocols on these devices five years ago. When I go
• 11:01
  to this meeting, the same doctors are giving talks saying, oh, well,
• 11:05
  now we've uped the energy or if we've done this, or we've changed
• 11:07
  You're constantly learning. It's the same in surgery, you know, we don't
• 11:11
  do the same facelift or the same breast reduction that we did or I did
• 11:18
  thirty years ago, necessarily. And then thermi Va is something that's becoming very
• 11:22
  popular, and I know you've been on the forefront of advocating for that,
• 11:26
  and I've been hearing it at many places. Now they have the devices for
• 11:31
  tightening. How popular has that become? That's very popular. Actually, this
• 11:35
  new device I have, Temperature has a it's a similar product. It's our
• 11:39
  device is called Vitalia, and that's a new one for me. But it's
• 11:43
  it's very much like thermi thermiva, and that's going to give you some internal
• 11:50
  tightening of the vaginal area as well as some external tightening. So those are
• 11:54
  things that are going to attack several areas of concern that women get as they
• 12:01
  get older, like when you sneeze, you dribble on yourself, things like
• 12:05
  that. Yeah, so things like that that's going to help tighten you know,
• 12:09
  the sort of the lining which is right up against the bladder and that
• 12:13
  sort of thing. Even interesting, we're talking about renewvion there. This is
• 12:18
  something that I've done a few times and it's encouraging. This skin tightening device,
• 12:22
  this reneuvion, you can actually make. They have a small hand piece.
• 12:26
  You can actually put it into labia majora and manora and tighten without like
• 12:33
  cutting skin. Okay, so even you know when people talk about labiaplasty and
• 12:39
  things like that where they want to get rid of excess skin of the labia,
• 12:43
  Well, the menora is the outer area and you generally don't have a
• 12:48
  lot to do for that, but this is something to help even tighten that.
• 12:50
  So that was another exciting thing, and I'm glad you asked about that
• 12:54
  because that was another exciting thing that I found that doctors are doing. I've
• 12:58
  done it a few but I kind of reinforced that you can do it and
• 13:03
  it will help to tighten areas that we never really had a great wave,
• 13:07
  right, And so you're a one stop shop. Is a very boutique style
• 13:11
  plastic surgery office. But you have the aesthetics side obviously, the plastic surgery
• 13:15
  side, that's you your board certified. Many people I know they're like,
• 13:18
  yes, doctor Lawala is great, clean work, does a great job.
• 13:22
  And so one stop shop, like you go for your esthetics and everything.
• 13:26
  Is there anything that you want to share to encourage people that, hey,
• 13:30
  come see me. This is why we're so you know, we're so great,
• 13:33
  which I know I'm a patient of yours as well. Well, you
• 13:35
  know, there are a lot of a lot of providers out there. I
• 13:39
  mean, you know, this is a little bit more of a boutique.
• 13:43
  Like you said, it's just a single doc. It's I don't have every
• 13:48
  device out there. I don't try to be that inclusive. We're a little
• 13:54
  bit smaller. But as you mentioned, it's really personalized, right, personalized
• 14:00
  treatments. I'm hoping that people that have come from for surgery, will will
• 14:05
  stay and end up having some of these other treatments. You try to treat
• 14:09
  you like family and and you know, come in and you can have all
• 14:13
  your other needs met at the same place. And it feels very private,
• 14:16
  which is nice because people don't want to shout out to the world like,
• 14:18
  hey, I'm going to see the plastic surgery. You know office, it's
• 14:22
  very private, it's a beautiful setting and you have a great team of experts
• 14:26
  that are surrounding you, so it makes it a really wonderful experience. Any
• 14:31
  advice for the ladies that are considering coming to get our guys too, because
• 14:37
  what's your ratio men to women? I probably do ninety women. I still
• 14:43
  do men. I do men lipe as suction, male breast reduction, occasionally,
• 14:48
  facial you know, facelifts and necklifts, eyelids, you know, do
• 14:54
  it all. But yeah, I would say it's still women. And you
• 14:58
  know, we talked. We started a while back talking about mommy makeover,
• 15:01
  and you know, that's probably the most common thing people come in for,
• 15:05
  but everything else is available there too, And you start thinking about this months
• 15:11
  if not years in advance. So what's the process when they come to see
• 15:13
  you. The consultation. Yeah, there's consultation. Most people have done some
• 15:18
  research that they come in and I spend time with them with my patient coordinator
• 15:22
  or my nurse, and we go over like a treatment plan, and you
• 15:26
  know, part of it. It's not just yes, they're surgically. You
• 15:28
  just want this done. We talk about that, but you know, this
• 15:31
  is the idea. You come in and you can talk about other things that
• 15:35
  bother you. You know, you're there for a breast reduction, but you
• 15:39
  you know, I also don't like my face, and so you know there
• 15:41
  are other options, not surgical necessarily that. It's just a good way to
• 15:46
  to kind of get in with someone, get to get a you know,
• 15:50
  to obviously develop a trust. And then and then I feel like we have
• 15:54
  other devices and treatments that hope you, you know, keep you young Lyleplasticsurgery
• 16:02
  dot Com. Anything we need to add today, that's good, Thank you
• 16:04
  so much. I like hearing about renoving on. This is new. I
• 16:07
  haven't heard about this one yet, so I'll have to come try it,
• 16:08
  all right, Very good
