I’m an RN too and the fact that years later he still got shaken up taking about it shows the empathy he has that many skilled popular doctors don’t have.
I love how he is in general. He reminds me of my cardiologist as well as my heart surgeon. I feel safe in their care and I’m actually having heart surgery in under 12 hours from now which is my second. My first was a bypass in January and now I’m having an ASD Closure both out of the Toronto General Hospital which is a teaching hospital. They have animals that visit prior to surgery to help calm you as well as a volunteer program that only previous heart patients like myself who come and talk to newer patients because they went through the same thing! The patient who died may have had that heart attack whether he did or didn’t do the surgery. I really feel for him because you can see how this still genuinely hurts him. 😢❤
So happy to hear a reputable doc speak on BII. Ruined my life…got them a month before they came back on the market in 2006 as part of a study. No follow up from the study (not even a phone call) and when I got extremely ill in 2015, Vanderbilt refused to give me my medical records. Finally got them and turns out I was given the wrong implants, lots of things in there I never agreed to. As soon as I realized it may be BII, I had them taken out asap and almost immediate improvement. Still have brain fog and some rashes that come and go but it was almost a 180 with blood work to prove silicone toxicity had resolved. Wouldn’t wish my experience on anyone.
@@lms2932 it did but that was one symptom that took a while to resolve. I still have my moments but I would say I’ve recovered 98% in the last 5 years. Listen to your body and maybe have a conversation with your doctor . It’s a very hard and personal decision. I wish you the best.
I have this same experience.. Dr in SLC UT put toxic silicone implants in me instead of saline and they were full of extreme chemicals.. I've been sick since 30 years+..my brain fog barely lifted and I have an overactive immune system and it wears me out. Your not alone. I did get my implants and documents but the lawyer I hired kept them and refused to sue the DR.. I had paperwork with someone else's signature needed for silicone...one day they'll answer to God...makes me wonder how many women he permanently hurt.
I am from Malaysia. I watched many of his youtube videos and tik tok videos. I gained a lot of knowledge from him for plastic surgery and wellness related information. He is such a great and amazing doctor. Very genuine and kind.
He is amazing, I love how due to that sad experience he got to find a way to help others in healthier way. I love he is realistic and seems to care for his patients
Same, I got suckered into wanting a less "ethnic" nose but after doing all this research for a nose job I have learned to love my super ethic nose, idgaf, I love my face now
I STILL want one however my brain tells me heck no. Far too many risk that outweigh the reward and thier are so many alternative surgeries to do to make me think less of my nose
I discovered Dr. Youn in 2020 and his sense of humor besides his vast knowledge about skin care kept me in good spirits. Thank you Dr. Youn. I love your book.
Loved how he was respectful of all procedures and not critical of individuals who opt for them even if he’s not fully supportive of it. He made it about how at the end of the day, it is a personal choice. Very knowledgeable!
24:05 unreal but not unexpected, Dr Youn being punished by the plastic surgery establishment for actually believing in and advocating for women! Thank you Dr Youn!
Just watched the Dark Side of Cosmetic surgery - absolutely fascinating BUT what I loved especially was the end comments where he told us about adopting elderly dogs. This is a subject so close to my heart. I only have one little dog - she is 14 - but my hobby now is supporting dog shelters. I make blankets, beds, coats and purchase food - I also donate funds especially when the shelters put out a request to cover veterinary costs for dogs which have been abused or injured. I love to read or hear about people who support these dogs in their later years. Please pass on my sincere admiration for what his wife and him do. Bryden Shiells - Cambridge, New Zealand.
This is a perfect podcast, you have good conversation, bring guests on that we wanna see, talk about things we wanna hear, the vibe inside the room is beautiful, you’re ofc aesthetically pleasing to look at and listen to, the introduction is a great hook. I love this podcast so professional and well done.
Dr Yun I’m going to listen to you! I was really considering a brow lift at 30 with lip fillers and a subtle nose job but now 😅 you know what - looking natural feels better.
His way of narrating just makes me want to not look away and concentrate and im glad hes using this attention for a good cause thank you mari for bringing him in!!
This video deserves alot more likes and views. It was so refreshing to not only see and hear a doctor who is so intelligent but actually cares about ppl and their wellbeing and not influenced by greed. I commend you as well for having great questions and allowing Dr. Yoen to speak. One of my pet peeves in YT is when the host constantly interrupts their guest. I've learned alot today and I just subscribed to you.
Oh my you got to interview Tony!! I love that man! He is a CAREFUL surgeon. Can you believe!?!? I have watched him for years. And any man that LOVES doggies as he does, is very special man! ❤️ !!!
This was extremely interesting discussion on plastic surgery and wellness. I see all these movie stars promoting their facial products as if they don't get involved with plastic surgery like Jennifer Lopez. I will be getting grade one collagen vitamins at Costco. I have had experience with botox. My plastic surgeon was injecting it every two months not every 3 to 4 months. I stopped because it became too expensive. Beauty is an elusive friend, and it gets harder as you get older.
Thank you so much for educating us regarding pros and cons of these highly requested procedures. We're always looking to look better and as in my case I'm nervous to start seeing signs of aging. I love how he's honest and humble. I work at the airport and seen traveling with his family and he's the most sweetest person you can meet. Thank you again.
He is such a special and wonderful person. He has a heart and he cares. I met several doctors who gaslight me and i follow him and love everything he does
I love this Man! What a legend. So ethical talented and sensitive - clearly highly intelligent and very broad minded in his knowledge about all areas of human health wellbeing and the medical field of surgery! This is the kind of Surgeon I would dream of having do my surgery…if only I could afford it! Thank you for sticking your neck out and bringing so much awareness and education to us all! You Doctor are the evolution and future in holistic and Scientific surgical procedures as an Art! 🙏✨👌
I wanted to do a lipo with some BBL many years ago and my brother, a anesthesiologist that works with plastic surgeons, told me he would NEVER let me do that. He said: you wanna do a liposuction? Fine. But inject far on your body? NO. He totally convinced me when he explained the danger and the bad results he saw. The surgeons we worked with don’t even recommend that procedure. And he was talking about the procedures done by good plastic surgeons. That crazy ones people do around.. I can’t even imagine the risks. I am from Brazil and I’ve heard horror stories about girls that did BBL with something even worse then fat. Some of them got deformed, others just d…
I love how open and intelligent Dr Youn is,I’m an animal lover. To adopt senior dogs is such a wonderful thing. I REALLY, REALLY admire what he and his wife are doing.
Have had my implants for a full year and I never felt more happy and confident. Other then sensation changes, the healing was pretty easy and smooth sailing for me. The millions of us who have successful surgeries are the VAST silent majority. Most people only discuss the scary stories but i want to be one voice stating how happy I am with it. Please do the research before commiting to any procedures.
@@radioactive_sunflowerz2450Yes exactly. The original comment has a hint of survivors bias whether intentional or not. theres many things that can go wrong YEARS and YEARS after your surgery. Some even decades down the line. Which is WHY It’s important and is WHY this is so heavily talked about . Especially with the boob job being a more popular procedure among young women. Many dont fully understand the changes their boobs and body will go through in circumstances in which they become pregnant, gain weight, lose weight, or generally age. The initial look is not set in stone forever. It’s not uncommon to experience complications with the shifting, splitting, or changes to the silicone/implants later down the line. Many women have experienced this hence why it is so talked about . It’s not about shading people who like their boob job lol.
But the important thing to remember is that going through BI surgery without complications doesn’t mean you’re automatically out of the woods. There are still risks of complications even 10-20 years after. Not to mention the average age range of this is 19-34 in which your body is still going through many weight, lifestyle or health changes that can affect the implants. Unlike most other plastic surgeries, your weight plays a HUGE role in the appearance of your implants. oftentimes people run into complications or find them to be too heavy MANY, many, years later after they have gained weight or had children .Thus it’s an important conversation to be had.
I love mine too. & I’m the one with nice big B he was talking about 😂 My surgeon also said you don’t need it. I know I don’t but my reason to get it is not to get it bigger but to always have the fat on the top, it deflated as you get older. Implants will always keep your boobs round, that was my goal. Got my implants at 34, not too young
Not often a doctor will display such openness.I appreciate this and I do believe in BII for the simple fact that anything foreign within the body can cause potential adverse effects~
Great podcast. I am in my late 70s.....you helped me to decide that I do not need any plastic surgery. Just will age naturally. I do use moisturisers, but that is it. I do not wear any makeup or eye stuff. People think I look younger than my age. I do want to buy one of your books. Will pass along to two daughters and the five granddaughters. No one in the family has had plastic surgery.
The dog story hit me right in the feels, I foster cats and am a dog walker and wholeheartedly agree. I had to syringe feed my late Guinea pig named Dr. Tam for his last two months. He was a really special teacher and pal to have known for the short time I had him.
Such an honest man. One thing about botox, it can surface illnesses like myasthenia gravis and MS. If you already have one of these auto immune diseases you should never have botox. It will warn you on the box.
I'll be 70 next year. Not being that woman who would have needles in her face & anything foreign implanted in her body, I took care of myself. Due to the fact I tan unevenly in the most unflattering way, I stayed out of the sun. I stopped using soap on my face at 24. I just use water still. I look 20 yrs. younger than I am, but am aware it could change at any time. I'm glad I spent more time learning than looking in the mirror ! I like the way I look !
I was in the clinical trial for the gummy bear implants due to bc. The worse. I dropped out; no one wanted to hear the truth. Capsular contracture twice. Took 20 years to find an honest surgeon.
As someone who has body dismorphia I'm kind of lucky that I don't have money for esthetic surgery bcs I'm aware that I would probably go overboard with it and it could actually make my body dysmorphia worse honestly
I just recently discovered Dr. Anthony Youn because I researched collagen. He's a wonderful doctor. The young lady interviewing him did an excellent job with the interview and asked the most perfect questions.
Good job young lady!! GREAT podcast (!!). Tony Youn is the absolute best. Loved your questions. I think you covered everything. And, of course, i learned i will never get my lips done. Pain might be too great. Much love Dear!! ❤️ ❤❤
THANK YOU For your Courage in Speaking HONESTY Here eventhough some doctors were angry with your Honesty. YES The number 1 thing is To Be Honest & NOT Fool the unknowing Public. THANK YOU Dr. Youn. I will follow u very often & give u a Thumbs Up to enable you have Top Followers with us public, making u gaining extra income which I commend you for your honesty & I hope the public will also often follow you & give u Thumbs up making money from this internet You-tube - cos you Actually DESERVES it. Your talking Honestly Holistically is already Helping us to think carefully before we harm our selfs. You just convince me of HOW To think HOLISTICALLY about doing a Plastic Surgery which did crossed my mind many a time.
Early morning walk was best make-up coz it glows the skin, give oxygen to the body and improve circulation. Breastfeeding enlarge breast so naturally will make breast bigger. There are many natural ways a woman can enhance beauty without make up or surgery.
I will follow Dr.Youn from now onwards…. TQ Dr.Youn as u are such a down to earth & Honest in all you share to us public. Will continue to see u on you-tube & click thumbs up To Learn from you - You are The Best Doctor …a Great Dermatologist we can count & Trust on. THANK YOU…. You are The Best!!
I feel like drs aren’t talking about getting breast cancer because they don’t care as much. They just go w what they were taught and don’t question anything. But drs like this question things and actually care that by doing a surgery, you may also give them cancer. He thinks deeper and on a more individual level. It’s not just a job for him, helping people is his passion.
Truly wish I never got implants! I’m 35 now and have had 5 revisions due to complications of size, scar tissue, dropping, nerve damage, and auto-immune diagnoses that no one else in my family had. Sadly, I was in the study Dr. Youn mentions unbeknownst to me. I was young and didn’t understand the paperwork. These implants are now in millions of sick women. Don’t do it! ❤🥹
Loved this! Over the years I have wanted so many things. But never did. I’m super happy the things I wanted went out of style and they never changed my body. But the one thing I am convened I need could only be fixed by surgery. 4 c/section left me a belly I can’t no matter how thin I am I can’t get it away.
Doctors take an oath ..FIRST do NO HARM!!...❤..Good for you DR.YOUN for researching and caring enough to do so for your patients ❤..Stand your ground TRUTH will always PREVAIL.❤
I think non-invasive treatments are great, I tried them for many years. But, for some, there comes a time when looking in the mirror at an aging face becomes depressing. There is nothing graceful about a turkey neck, sagging jowls, flat cheeks and droopy eyelids. Surgery may not be for everyone, but for those who want it, they are thankful for the option to have it and even more thankful that there are competent doctors who can achieve extraordinary results
Thankyou. This was so inspiring & interesting. I’ve followed this Dr now for 4yrs. He’s very knowledgeable and easy to understand. I really enjoyed this podcast. Especially today as Iam suffering with influenza, 😢. Thanks again cheers
What has made a difference for me to help keep my collagen is HRT. I feel like women should look into HRT in their 30's as our estrogen declines because it affects collagen inour bodies.
13:00 wait a second we barely talked about the daughter and mother who lost her life / daughter lost her mother? What happens when a patient passes? What did you do to make it through this? That is the just the hook to get us to watch and then we do not hear anything else about it?
so about the breast cancer/fat transfer topic: Fat tissue isn’t really a tissue with a high percentage of mother cells in comparison to other tissues but other than than healthy mothers cells can not differentiate into cancer cells. Cancer cells only come from previous cancer cells, cancer by itself self isnt like an illness that can be contagious to healthy cells so transfering healthy mother cells into a tumor tissue wont affect the growth speed of the tumor
