496: Facial Fat Loss: What’s Aging You Prematurely Feb 04, 2023

Facial fat atrophy, also known as facial lipoatrophy, is a condition where the fat in the face diminishes, resulting in a sunken or hollow appearance. This can occur due to a variety of causes, including genetics, aging, and certain medical conditions or treatments.
One of the most common causes of facial fat atrophy is aging. As we get older, our bodies naturally lose fat, including in the face. This can result in a gaunt or hollow appearance, making us look older than we feel. Additionally, certain medical conditions, such as HIV/AIDS and diabetes, can also lead to facial fat atrophy.
Another major cause of facial fat atrophy is certain treatments, such as radiation therapy and certain medications. Radiation therapy, which is used to treat cancer, can damage the fat cells in the face, resulting in a sunken appearance. Certain medications, such as corticosteroids, can also lead to facial fat atrophy by causing the body to break down fat.
Treatment options for facial fat atrophy include dermal fillers, fat grafting, and facial surgery. Dermal fillers, such as hyaluronic acid, can be injected into the face to add volume and improve the appearance of sunken or hollow areas. Fat grafting, which involves taking fat from one area of the body and transplanting it to the face, can also be used to restore volume. Facial surgery, such as a facelift, can also be used to improve the appearance of sunken or hollow areas in the face.
It is important to consult with a medical professional to determine the best course of treatment for facial fat atrophy. With the right approach, it is possible to restore a more youthful and full appearance to the face.

Skin cancer, melanoma, sunburn, how to prevent them all? Hey Beauties, on this week’s Five Minute Friday, we discuss the things you do that can lead to skin cancer to celebrate Melanoma Monday, the first Monday in May to raise awareness about skin cancer.

379: Top 10 Cautions with Threading Nov 12, 2021

Today, we are talking about threading. Threading is a procedure where temporary sutures are used to produce a tiny lift in the skin for a more youthful appearance. The final results of your thread lift will be noticeable within one to two months after treatment. There are three man types of threads that are currently on the market: Polydioxanone (PDO), Polylactic acid (PLA) and Polycarprolactone (PCA). PDO threads are the most popular type of thread because it is made of a biodegradable polymer. The best candidates for thread lifts are people who are younger than 55 and who do not want to go under the knife for a traditional surgical face lift.

353: Five Minute Friday: All about Masseter Botox for TMJ with Influencers Kayla Swift and Carly Woods Aug 07, 2021

Happy Friday Beauty Byters!
In this week’s Five Minute Friday, we discuss masseter botox to help TMJ. For anyone suffering from temporomandibular joint pain, also known as TMJ pain, Botox may be a great way to temporarily eliminate tension in the jaw. Similar to the way Botox works in areas like the forehead and glabella lines, it blocks communication between the nerves and muscles that reside in the temporomandibular joints. Botox alleviates tension within the jaw preventing muscles from engaging in involuntary movement of the jaw. If you frequently wake up with migraine headaches it is possible that you are grinding your teeth throughout the night. Seeing a doctor that specializes in the anatomy of the face should be the first step you take if you think you may have TMJ pain. Botox has the ability to eradicate certain conditions like lockjaw which sometimes comes hand in hand with TMJ pain. In addition to pain relief, Botox adds a slimming effect to the face due to the weakening of these muscles. Because Botox is considered an “off-label” treatment, it is crucial that you see a reputable doctor that has experience injecting these areas. To book an appointment in my private practice please call my office at 626-316-7033!

Happy Friday Beauty Byters!
In this week’s Five Minute Friday, I am talking about the importance of sleep! Sleep is so important for your body's healing process. Skin and collagen rebuild during the night, so it is crucial to apply your nighttime products and allow yourself enough time for restorative sleep.

I like using my Sleep and Glow pillow to ensure I get the best sleep possible.

Hi beauties! This week on Beauty Bytes with Dr. Kay, Secrets of a Plastic Surgeon, I am joined by the Marketing Director of Joovv, Wes Pfiffner.

If the San Francisco 49ers have added red light therapy into their day-to-day lives, then so should you!

Safe, effective concentrated wavelengths penetrate the skin cells to trigger collagen and elastin production while reducing inflammation and redness, and can also be used to stimulate hair growth.

316: Lip Filler Migration! Why Does It Happen and How To Avoid It Mar 12, 2021

Are you noticing the lack of a defined border in your lips or a "filler mustache" above the pink border of the lip? Then you most likely have filler migration. In today’s Five-Minute Friday episode, Dr. Kay talks about what causes filler migration and the steps you should take to avoid and fix it! Lip filler migration is becoming a huge epidemic and the reason for that is because filler is being injected imprecisely and too close to the pink vermillion boarder. While some patients may want an over filled look, an injectors job is to let patients know the risks of overfilling but still have respect for their aesthetic desires! Dr. Kay reviews what fillers are more susceptible to migration and the importance of not adding good filler on top of bad filler! The best way to eliminate migration is to get it dissolved and then refreshed. Listen in to get more details about the steps you need to take for the perfect pout and call Dr. Kay’s office at (626) 316-7033 to make an appointment so she can make you beautiful and confident again!

283: Top Secret Anti-Aging Ingredient: Retinol Nov 20, 2020

Happy Friday, Beauty Byters!
Winter is coming! It's time for your skin to start peeling for fresh, rejuvenated skin. In this week’s Five Minute Friday, I talk about the amazing benefits of Retinol! This is one of the best products out there for your skin and is one of my favorites hands down! Pure retinol itself is pretty potent; strongly consisting of vitamin A, and can cause skin peeling and redness. Your dermatologist may recommend you pure retinol if you have deep facial lines and wrinkles. Retinol derivative, however, is a lot more gentle and works just as well as pure retinol. It improves stimulation of collagen production, skin thickness, and skin surface to give you that youthful, rejuvenated glow! Tune in to hear how incorporating retinol can improve your overall health and beauty! This is truly the Fountain of Youth!

280: The Weightloss and Immunity Boosting Superfood: SPROUTS Nov 10, 2020

Hi Beauties!
On this week’s episode of Beauty Bytes with Dr. Kay: Secrets of a Plastic Surgeon, I am excited to be joined with sprout expert Doug Evans, Co-founder of Organic Avenue, to discuss the tips and health benefits of sprouting. We’ve all heard of “going vegan”, but Doug chose to stick with sprouting specifically because of its convenience and low-cost, whilst getting a variety of vitamins and essential fatty acid nutrients to help protect the body from diseases including cancer. Yes, it's easy to stop by your local store to shop for greens, but vegetable produce is a long-distance, large-scale transportation that could consume large quantities of emitted fossil fuels. Doug encourages others to try the simple method of sprouting; to have fresh, highly nutritious, and affordable greens grown right in your own house!

Happy Friday, Beauty Byters!

Happy Friday, Beauty Byters!
In this week’s Five Minute Friday, I will be discussing the impact of air pollution on skin! Exposure of the skin to air pollutants has been associated with skin aging and inflammatory or allergic skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis or acne.

The protective ability of the skin is not unlimited, and problems arise when an abnormal exposure to environmental stressors exceeds the skin's normal defensive potential To hear more about how to protect your skin from air pollution tune in to this weeks podcast.

265: Five Minute Friday: The Difference Between Kybella and Chin Liposuction Sep 11, 2020

Happy Friday, Beauty Byters!
In this week’s Five Minute Friday, I will be discussing Kybella and Chin Liposuction! When choosing between Kybella and Chin Liposuction ask yourself if you want a procedure with minimal downtime and no anesthesia. If that is the case, Kybella is the option for you. Kybella is a fat melting shot and is great for spot reducing areas that are hard to eliminate with exercise and diet alone. However, chin liposuction is the gold standard when eliminating fat from the neck area. The results are more immediate with chin liposuction as the fat has already been removed, but overall skin tightening can take up to 6-12 months.

Happy Friday, Beauty Byters!
In this week’s Five Minute Friday, I will be discussing Thread Lifts! Thread-lifts are worth it for the right patient with the right skin laxity, done by the right injector. If you have mild to moderate skin laxity, the results can be great! For patients with too much skin laxity, a face lift is needed to tighten and trim excess skin. However, it is important to note that this procedure along with filler injections, are all secondary to surgery. The gold standard is always a surgical brow lift and mid face lift.

Hi Beauties,
This week on Beauty Bytes with Dr. Kay: Secrets of a Plastic Surgeon, we talk about prebiotics and how they're beneficial for your skin. Prebiotics are types of dietary fibers that sustain the beneficial microorganisms in the gut. During the process of digestion, prebiotics cannot be broken down because they are non-living, fermented carbohydrates. However, this fiber helps the gut bacteria produce nutrients for the colon cells, which ultimately leads to a healthier digestive system. Prebiotics help offset factors that lead to redness, dryness, and aging. By applying Prebiotics to the skin, Probiotics thrive, keeping the surface of the skin balanced, youthful, and strong.

Happy Friday, Beauty Byters!
In this week’s Five Minute Friday, I will be discussing the relationship between stress and graying hair.

Tune into this week’s episode to learn about the biological mechanisms behind the rise of gray hair. I discuss a recently conducted study by Bing Zhang and his team that talks about the effects of specific hormones on the growth of gray hair and future ability to hopefully reverse this process.

254: Five Minute Friday: How Probiotics Benefit the Skin Jul 31, 2020

Hi Beauties,
This week on Beauty Bytes with Dr. Kay: Secrets of a Plastic Surgeon, we talk about probiotics and how they're beneficial for your skin. Probiotics are microorganisms that are similar to the naturally occurring bacteria in your gut. They act as a protective shield against bad bacteria, preventing inflammation and premature aging of the skin. Dr. Kay discusses how probiotics can help deal with a variety of skin conditions such as acne, rashes, eczema, rosacea, or psoriasis. By incorporating more probiotic strains in our diets and in our skincare, we help make lasting effects on our skin. Probiotics reduce visible signs of aging, improve the level of hydration in the skin, and prevent breakouts by reducing skin sensitivity. Yogurt, kimchi, sauerkraut, and kombucha are great to have on a daily basis, while also taking probiotic pills.

251: Five Minute Friday: All About Hydroquinone and the Gold Standard of Bleaching Treatments Jul 25, 2020

Hi Beauties,
This week on Beauty Bytes with Dr. Kay: Secrets of a Plastic Surgeon, we chat about hydroquinone and why it is the powerhouse treatment for hyperpigmentation and scarring. Hydroquinone is the gold standard for the treatment of hyperpigmentation and therefore is the most prescribed bleaching agent for treating melasma, freckles, lentigines, age spots, and acne scars. Although hydroquinone has been controversial in the past, for over fifty years it has been established as the most effective ingredient for fading uneven skin tones and dark spots. Dr. Kay discusses the controversies involving its safety profile, her strategy for treating melasma, and how to use hydroquinone in conjunction with other products to get the best results.

247: Five Minute Friday: Maskne - Are Face Masks to Blame for Breakouts? Jul 11, 2020

COVID-19 has changed the way the entire world functions and with that many of us have had to adapt to the various safety protocols put in place by our local governments. Many media outlets have verified with experts that Americans should expect to wear face coverings for the next several years even with a COVID-19 vaccine.
As businesses being to reopen and many of us return to work, we may find ourselves wearing masks for longer periods of time that one would hope. Surgical masks and cloth face coverings are known to produce excess moisture, built-up bacteria, and a lack of air circulation. This inevitably presents a risk for those with oily or acne-prone skin. Whenever you are at home it is so important to let your skin breathe, because it can get so dank under these masks, which causes more breakouts to occur for those who already have acne-prone skin.
In this episode, I share some of my favorite ways to attack "maskne" and how you can prevent it from becoming a problem!

246: Five Minute Friday: 4 Reasons Why You Should Switch from Chemical to Mineral-Based Sunscreen Jul 03, 2020

Happy Friday, Beauty Byters! As you prepare for your summer vacation, or “stay-cation", it’s important to learn the benefits of wearing sunscreen. We all know ultra violet rays are harmful and accelerate aging, in addition to being pre-cancerous. However, most of us don’t even realize what we are putting on our skin. On this Five-Minute Friday, I spill all the benefits of using a mineral based sunscreen over the more common chemical sunscreens. From creating a physical barrier that reflects UV rays to being unable to absorb into the skin, I reveal how a simple switch of sunscreens can help to rejuvenate your skin and even prevent cancer. Even chemical sunscreens deemed ‘safe’ contain some amount of harmful active ingredients that are broken down and absorbed systemically into the skin, causing potential problems and side effects. I explain the science behind mineral based sunscreens, as well as how it helps to prevent pigmentation caused from the sun. So, if you’re suffering from melasma or hyperpigmentation, you’ll definitely want to tune in! Remember, the skin is the largest organ of your body, so I can’t stress enough how important it is to protect it!

206: The Story of Xeomin with Dr. Jürgen Frevert, creator of Xeomin Feb 12, 2020

Have you ever wondered how a toxin is invented? In this episode I got to interview the inventor of Xeomin, Dr. Jürgen Frevert. Dr. Frevert is an expert, a fighter for toxin purity, and a pioneer in aesthetics. Dr. Frevert was one of the first people to work with botulinum toxin and discovered a method of purifying it to give it 10 times less accessory junk proteins than brand name Botox. He is a fascinating character and his insights on the uses of xeomin, the properties of a great toxin and aesthetics in general are fascinating. Many patients have developed an immunity and/or resistance to brand name toxins like Botox or Dysport and I always look to Xeomin when a patient is dealing with these issues. Getting to meet Dr. Frevert was something I’d looked forward to for a while as a provider that uses Xeomin for a large portion of my patients on a daily basis. I truly stand behind this toxin and it was so fascinating to meet the man who started it all!
Dr. Frevert began his cooperation with Merz Pharmaceuticals during his time as a Project Manager for biochemical projects and forged a new development in the pure clostridium botulinum neurotoxin that is now known around the world as Xeomin. Xeomin was officially licensed to Merz Pharmaceuticals in 2005 for the treatment of cervical dystonia and with blepharospasm following in 2009. Dr. Frever is currently traveling the globe as a consultant for Merz Pharmaceuticals and educated physicians, PAs, nurses, and industry insiders on his prized-creation on a daily basis.

198: Five Minute Friday: What Filler Should You Use on Your Face? Jan 10, 2020

Happy Friday Beauties!
On this week's Five Minute Friday, I'm debunking everything you've been told about fillers. Being in this industry for nearly twenty years, I'm frequently asked through DMs, emails, and friends for filler recommendations and which ones are appropriate for specific areas of the face. Not only is every filler manufactured differently, but many of them are also made to target specific areas. The facial anatomy and skin elasticity vary from patient to patient, making it absolutely necessary to seek out an injector that is capable of guiding you in the right direction. As a facial plastic surgeon, I have had countless patients come in for hyaluronidase injections -- the injectable used to dissolve HA fillers -- because of work they received from an inexperienced injector. This episode is a great way to learn about the options available when it comes to beauty maintenance! Have a topic you want to be covered on the podcast? Send me a DM or email info@beautybydrkay.com!

Happy Friday, beauties!
On this week's Five Minute Friday, we chat about setting realistic expectations to attain your beauty goals. Quite often do patients come into my practice with unrealistic goals or seeking results that require a gradual process.

Not everyone will be a good candidate for every procedure and some patients will need to come in for multiple visits to achieve optimal results. A good injector will always be upfront with patients and understand the importance of educating their patients. If you've been considering an injectable procedure or other aesthetic treatments, this episode is for you! I love enabling my listeners to make decisions that improve their overall happiness.

Happy Friday Beauty Byters! This Five Minute Friday episode is all about peptides. A peptide is a compound composed of amino acids, and in skincare it helps reinforce proteins that naturally occur in the skin, rejuvenating and maintaining it. You need to incorporate this amazing ingredient into your skincare routines. Peptides improve your skin’s firmness, elasticity, and dissipates redness. Peptides can also be used to smooth wrinkles and repair barrier function. You can consume peptides both topically and orally. Some foods that are rich in peptides include milk products, eggs, soybeans, fish and meat. The KD Skincare line carries products rich in peptides as well. KD Triple Shot Serum, KD Night Quench, and KD Luxe Tighten use peptides to soften the skin and provide rich nutrients. It is important to add strong building blocks to your skincare routine. I recommend starting with products with peptides for healthy, smooth skin!
