• 0:27
  Speaker 1: love seeing you, but I can tell you looking at me,
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: going oh I can fix that. Oh that needs fixing.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: Just just a few hours in the operating room and
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: we're all set Mark and and oh look look Mark,
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Look what I brought for you. Oh no, what is that?
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: That's botox. It's botox. I've been threatening one day you're
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: going to break down. We're actually going to do it
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: in the studio.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: I cry at a flu shot. So I just don't
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: like this stuff.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: It's such a small needle. It's okay, mar.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: It is tiny. The needle he showed me is tiny. Now,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: and I know a million people they get boat talks
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: every two seconds. It doesn't bother them at all.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: Ten million people last year in the United States. That's
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: a lot of people. It is so popular. He's looking
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: at me.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: I will do it someday. Well, you know, we'll get
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: them there. Now, let me ask you a question. There's
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: a couple of these hotshot plastic surgeons. I don't know
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: that they're great. I see them in the newspaper all
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: the time. They're in the gossip comms, which is usually
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: a bad sign. But one of them, somebody calls it's
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: like two hundred three hundred thousand for a Facebook. That's crazy.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: That's crazy. That is absolutely crazy. And you know, I
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: mean the truth is, how do people get in the
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: magazines and on TV? They get pr agents And it
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: doesn't necessarily mean they're the best. Some of the best
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: plastic surgeons I know no one's ever heard of because
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: they're full time faculty members. They are the best. You've
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: never heard of them. And yet you know the one
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: hundred thousand, two hundred thousand dollars face off crazy mark.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so you don't have to spend that time, No,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: you do not.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: That is a true anomaly in the world, and there
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: are only a few people that could either get away
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: with that or find people should I say, stupid enough
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: to pay that kind of money, that's crazy.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Well yeah, and that's uh those it's those people that go,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: I saw him in the pay Perry must be good
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: and then they pay that kind of money. But yeah,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: doctor Arthur Perry, you can you can trust him. You
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: want to go to him. Now, speaking of facelift, that
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: look at that. If I lift my face like that
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: looks better? All right, Yes, yep, we gotta do it. Mark,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: come on, come on, But four hours and you're a
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: changed man. But four hours, well that's how a facelift is.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Three or four hours.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: But honestly, Mark, there are much simpler ways to look better.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Here.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: It is the fall. Right, we're in October. We've gone
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: through the summer. Everyone was out having parties and on
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: the beach. Now we're getting ready for Thanksgiving and and
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: the Christmas season. Right, everyone wants to look good. But
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: there are some really simple things that you can do
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: to look good. And people just forget the little growth
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: on the face. Everybody's got kind of a zoo growing
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: on their face. Mark, you know, moles and sebary character
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: and the simple simple thing that you can do doesn't
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: cost a lot of money. You go in for a
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: session with a plastic surgeon and look better. You know,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: I looked at some statistics. Forty percent of adults are single.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: Did you know that?
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Wow?
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: Forty percent, and it goes to like forty six percent
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: over the age of sixty. That's a lot of single people.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Everybody's a lot of happy people too. But everybody wants
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: to look better, right, you do. You know we we
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: see people on TV and in the movies and they're
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: not they're not unattractive, right. There's so you know, you
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: can make whatever judgments you want, but the truth is
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: we'd like to look at prettier and better looking people. Right.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: So it's so simple to just clean up the things
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: on your skin, that's number one, and a good skincare
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: program that will take you a long way to looking better.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah. We all know somebody with a big mole or
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: something's sticking out a little and that's not surgery, that's just.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Well, it's it's surgery. It's minor surgery, but it's in
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: the office and you know, forty five minutes later it's
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: gone and you look so much better. The psychologists use
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: this term called cognitive dissonance. You know, that's where you
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: look at someone and there's something wrong and you can't
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: quite put your finger on it. But it's the asymmetry
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: that a mole creates, or maybe a big brown mole
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: with hair. You know, no one likes that. Get rid
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: of those things. They're so easy, and some of those
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: could be cancer. So you know, it's a good idea.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: You get two benefits. You have a medical benefit and
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: a cosmetic benefit when you do those things.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Now, I could look at them here, I could see
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: three things I could fix you look at me, you
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: see like forty two things. Right, it's a project mark.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Now, but everybody as you get older, look, we all
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: age right.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: All right, So if I got a facelift like that,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: it's four hours. Now, then what happens how long before
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: I look normal and go to work?
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Well, you're out of work for about two weeks, that's it,
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: you know. And now with masks, yeah, maybe you get
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: in a little sooner now about two weeks really, and
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: it's it's a pretty easy recovery. No pain medicine other
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: than tile til bad word now, but.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: Ha, tile and all not a painful thing.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: No, it doesn't hurt afterwards, honestly, in a scale of
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: one to ten. A facelifts is somewhere between one and three.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Wow. Yeah, okay, Now these bags under my eyes, if
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: I want to get rid of those.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: Even easier, Mar. Yeah, so there's some extra I'm looking at.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: You've got some extra skin of your lower islands. You've
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: got some fat in the lower islands, your upper island,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: look at your upper islands. Mark, there's extra skin. It's
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: almost an emergency. That's about two and a half three hours.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: Look these procedures, by the way, under local anesthesia, we
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: don't need to use general antesesia. It's nice, smooth intravenous
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: sedation like with your colon os could be, except no
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: tubes in the other side.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: There.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: It's a nice RESTful thing and it doesn't hurt, and
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: then you come out. You look terrible though, for about
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: two weeks because you're bruised and swollen, and then you
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: look great, and for.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: Two weeks you got to put ice on it and
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: Now the ice actually, interestingly, we don't use ice anymore.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: You shouldn't use ice because some people get frostbite injuries
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: and there's no benefit to it.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: So you just recovering. Yeah, yeah, okay, what else Okay,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: if you're a woman breasts, Now what's the trend now?
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: Is it bigger, smaller?
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: Well, certainly smaller than it used to be. You know,
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: it's always funny, Mark, you know when you see women
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: that have these enormous implants, like I saw one of
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: their Kardashians and these implants are up by her clavigals,
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: by her collar bone. That's crazy. That would be considered
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: a complication in cosmetic surgery. And yet I've had people
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: ask me to put implants that way. I say, I
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: can't do that, that's that's wrong, and they say, well,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: the celebrities have it that way. It's like, oh my goodness.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: You know, so now we're redefining what beauty is based on.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: You know, this group of people from California who who
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: had bad cosmetic surgery. But you know, everybody sees it.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: It's crazy. Yeah that we're talking to doctor Arthur Perry.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: He's a great plastic surgeon. But there are bad ones.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: So I see people I know they had a facelift
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: and they look phenomenal. It looked so natural. Then you
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: see the other ones who looks tight and plastic and
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: like muppets, like Boca ratan face of well, how do
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: you avoid that?
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: How do you know you're not going to get that?
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: You know, there's artistry in this. You know, we can
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: teach plastic surgeons how to operate, we can teach you
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: how to be good doctors. But the artistry, the artistry
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: is very difficult to teach. You know, either you're an
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: artist or you're not. And it doesn't take much to
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: pull a little bit too tight and you look funny.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: And you know that's the hardest part to teach. I
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: teach over at the Colombian and Cornell at the Plastic
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Surgery Residency program. And and you know that it's like ethics.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: How can you teach ethics? Very difficult? Your mother has
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: to teach that. And artistry it's almost innate. You can
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: learn it. But and that's where you know, defining the
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: plastic surgeon a good or a great one, it's the
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: ability to create art with you as the media.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: You got to have the hands. Guys. Hey, that's another thing.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: If you get in botox, everybody does it. Now, do
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: not go to the hairdresser or the dentist for botox, right,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: make sure it's a plastic surgeon who knows what he's doing.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: And beware of the really inexpensive botox because there's fake
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: stuff out there. There's there is you know, gray market
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: that means it comes from other countries. You have no
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: idea what it really is. You have to be careful.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: You know, if botox costs six hundred dollars a vile
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: how is it that these storefront places are charging two
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: or three hundred. You know, something's wrong.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: And it's easier now to do plastic search right than
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: like thirty years ago. The equipment's better, the techniques are better, right.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: Well, there's absolutely there's refined techniques, you know, we you know,
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: surgical techniques are are certainly better now. For instance, the
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: facelift that you want so much before, you know, ten
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: fifteen years ago, we had to make incisions way up
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: into the hairline. Now we don't have to do that anymore.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: We figured out ways. It's a little harder for the
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: plastic surgeon, but better for you facelift.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: It's not for me, it's for a friend ou Oh okay,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: but take a look that would be now what do
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: I do my next? A little saggy? All right?
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: So for men it's different. So for you, I could
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: suction out that fat. Okay, let me turn to the sidemark.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: You know your chin is good, so we don't need that.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: So we suction it out and we bring those muscles together.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: Remember Catherine Hepburn, you know those bands in the neck, Yeah,
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: bring those together and the tighter we bring those. Then
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: you know your neck looks slimmer and better. So that's
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: so you put a hole in the it's a small
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: incision under the chin mark. There's no although although there
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: is a method for men where we actually do just
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: excize that skin. That's a simpler way. I might have
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: that myself. You know, it's one of these just take
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: out that skin right there and place an incision in
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: the middle. Not good for women, but it works in men,
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: particularly if you don't want a bigger procedure. It's a
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: smaller perce.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: How long does that take.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: It's a little under two hours. And how you don't
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: want the surgeon to rush two weeks of recovery. Everything
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: is about two weeks. Although if you're just doing the
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: neck with turtlenecks, maybe a scarf as it's getting warmer,
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: older out there, rather yeah, you could probably hide or
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: you could probably pull it off. In about a week
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: and you know what, Mark w Or will set up
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: the studio in your home. You know, you just there
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: you go the little comrades you can broadcast three days later.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: What do you say, listeners, tell tell, We'll get Mark
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: to do it.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: Oh, but you know they just banned. Uh. North Korea
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: has banned cosmetic surgery. Yeah.
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not something, it's it's a It must be
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: good if they banned Oh my goodness. Yeah, breast augmentations.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: Facelifts can't do it because it it goes against the
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: socialist agenda. That's what. What's his name, Kim John.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: Kim Jong Moon.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so I guess if you want cosmetic surgery,
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: don't do it in North Korea, although South Korea very popular.
• 10:42
