@@LilyMcdurmont I said I don’t see MUCH makeup. As compared to the first pic. Exactly what my reply said so idk why I’m writing this.. I know no makeup from ‘no makeup’ makeup. And in the first pic, smth like the full coverage Charlotte Tilbury foundation would cover but it didn’t exist in 2012… The lighting is better in the second pic, yes. But that’s not gonna hide hyperpigmentation that is as bad as it was. It IS an 8 yr progression. The entire point is to get people to think about their daily skincare and not just in office fixes. It’s all important. She’s not selling anything specific here so it’s just info to help. I don’t get why people have to leave negative comments is the point. I’ve already spent too much time here…
Yea this is such a dishonest comparison. A flash creates stark contrast and hard contours, the other is a very soft light source that creates a very soft look of the face. Sure the treatment might've worked, but you'll never be able to really tell from these pictures.
@@tjeulink ... Lighting would make obvious shadows, you can see that the patient had very obvious sun damage/redness (redness cannot be caused by shadows) on the top of the cheeks and forehead, on the after pictrue you can clearly see those red sun damaged spots are not visible anymore. Are you seriously this dumb?
People here mentioning the difference in lighting are of course correct, but still, the skintone difference is very well infereable! Great result for sure..
I would jut prefere pics under more of the same conditions. What if the dirt picture is her after an exhausting night out or for a lot of people just her after drinking a few cocktails? Honestly can’t tell then the lighting issue and the copletely different mimic
People just love being miserable and believe that products don't work for some reason. I started a skin routine and used products my dermatologist told me to. It literally changed my skin 180. I got rid of all my hyperpigmentation and acne. My skin literally looks like a filter. Now I keep up a normal routine
@user-gx1vx7li3x The first photo is way overexposed. It creates color saturation, ie., pink spots, in contrast to the shiny white areas. The subdued lighting in tbe second photo evens out all texture and gives it a uniform look. A lot of people using the photo comparison technique use overexposure to exaggerate the "flaws".
What I’ve noticing isn’t freckles, but wrinkles and no fat under eyes, loosen skin on cheeks, and on the write the absence of that, which doesn’t happened to people 8 years later. You don’t get fat on your cheeks and under eyes- you loose it.
Y’all are focusing on the wrong things. Her fine lines and sun damage are clearly greatly improved, as well as her facial fullness and skin brightness and texture. Of course there are lighting differences, the practice probably had a different technology set up and camera to track patient progress 10 whole years ago.
Yea, she probably had fillers and now has lighter skin? So what? Let’s see her in real life while she starts to talk… you will immediately tell she had botox and fillers
Bruh everything is different. The makeup, the camera, the lighting. It’s not even remotely the same facial expression. You can’t compare a smiling pic to a neutral expression.
Also, her hair color is toned down from a brassy blond to a beautiful natural blond, her eyebrows are fuller and more natural looking, the excessive false eyelashes snd black mascara are gone, lips look fuller. Skin tone is an important part of the new look, but only one part. Makeup also appears more matte rather than shiny.
You don’t need to look 20 forever. You just need to even out your skin tone, is what this video is specifically trying to say. You can agree with grace.
@@CatsOrangeAndGrey yes but in todays world it’s not just about evening your skin tone. It’s Botox and lifts and plastic surgery. It is about looking 20 forever and that’s why you have 40 year old women panicking because they see women older than them who have had work done and feel like that’s how they should look. The pressure on women to always look younger once they hit 30 is just wrong.
There's a difference between natural aging and premature aging from sun damage. One is normal and natural and one can give you cancer. In the first picture, she looks like she's in her late forties. That's a big difference from aging normally
Please do a video on what treating sun damage on someone that also has freckles would look like and what to expect from trying to treat aging signs on a person with freckles!
7 months taking my skincare routine seriously every day and my skin is amazing. I struggled with acne even at the age of 34 and it was leaving dark spots of hyperpigmentation on my face. Your advice helped me together with a dermatologist in person.
Last year I started treating my rosacea with prescription topical medication and wearing a separate sunscreen under my makeup. I never intentionally tanned and always wore tinted moisturizer with SPF daily but didn’t realize that wasn’t enough until I started following you and some other dermatologists on TH-cam. I’ve been feeling frustrated that my skin looks so pale lately, but I just looked back at some old photos, and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t realize how much hyperpigmentation and how many age spots I had before. I’ve always had some freckles and thought my age spots were freckles too but now I can see I was wrong. At age 40 my skin is more even and clear than it was 5 years ago. I still have some permanent redness on my cheeks and around my nose from rosacea that I may seek out some laser treatments to address, but my rosacea has much improved, and my age spots have faded a lot. I can say that daily sunscreen really does make a big difference in helping to reduce hyperpigmentation and redness. Edited to add: I don’t use anything in my skincare routine specifically to target hyperpigmentation. I use metronidazole gel for my rosacea. I double cleanse with micellar water/makeup removing balm and a gentle cleanser, I wear a mineral sunscreen during the day and moisturizer at night, and a few days a week I use a gentle Retinol around my eyes and on my forehead.
*An "avoiding sub damage" testimonial, here.* Ppl really don't understand just how much difference sun damage makes; like, everyone knows it causes premature aging, but most have no concept of just _how much_ of the "normal" aging we take for granted is actually premature. I was born with what my Bubbe used to call "an English rose" complexion, so from the time I could toddle, I wasn't even allowed into the back garden without sunscreen & a hat; I burn _so_ easily. By the time of my teens, it was just part of my daily routine; shower, brush teeth, apply sunscreen. Bc it was habit, I've kept it up as an adult. And the result? Well, this is going to sound like a humblebrag, but I figured it was a relevant + I should post a comment; I'm 40 in 4 months, & I've really only started visibly aging in the last couple of years - ppl still consistently pick me as like 7 years younger than I am (even long-term friends [I'm in a mixed-ages friend group, so specific numbers don't actually come up that often] get all Surprised Pikachu when I happen to mention my age) & I had like a decade of "being" 25 + having to correct ppl. It was tough being a teenager in the late 90s + early 2000s when tanning + bronzer were the big ideal (I did try self-tan a few times, but even with the expensive stuff, it just didn't look right on me), but staying the course & protecting my "glimmering moontan" to quote my (still! 🥰)bestie has really paid off; now former classmates who've friended me on social media refuse to believe I don't filter my selfies (it's not a principle thing, I'm just too lazy to learn new tech). I'm sure _some_ of it is probs not having had children + never being a smoker. I do not doubt that. But I'm pretty sure the majority is down to my ritual application of sunscreen that I still practice everyday, even if I'm not leaving the house + just as part of my morning toilette, & my routine donning of a wide-brimmed hat (& sometimes, on particularly bright days, a big black golf umbrella, too) before I step out of the door - even just to walk the 9m down the driveway to check the letterbox, lol.
So what the hell to I do if I already screwed up any I'm 31 with a lot of sun damage? Like? Just die alone? Wear a paper bag over my head? I'm broke, I can't buy expensive treatments.
@MorganHyde-ie5ru just start using sunscreen every day _now,_ & get derm advice on whether vitamin c + retinol (both available very cheaply from any place that sells skincare at all) are right for you. They're expensive, but a one-off consultation is well worth the investment for getting advice.
@@MorganHyde-ie5ru well for one thing, you could start now with sunscreen and wide brimmed hat! I’m in my 30s and didn’t consistently wear a wide brimmed hat till now, but I am pretty consistent with it now! I got mine from San Diego hat company and I really like it has a hole in the top for my ponytail 😊
I'm 33 and people think I'm 17 sometimes. No joke. A teenager at my job asked me what high school I go to....I didn't start using sunscreen regularly til my late 20s. A lot of it is just genetics.
I can relate. However, my story is a little different!!... I just turned 40 in January and even just 2 weeks before, I was chatting with my neighbor and I asked her how old she thought I looked before I answered her. She guessed '32 max!' I laughed 😂 and told her my 40th was around the corner and she was shocked then admitted she actually wanted to say 28 but worried I would think she was implying I'm somehow immature but she didn't believe I was even in my 30's yet! Then I asked her age and she's 43 so it's not like she doesn't know what women in their 30's-40's look like! 😂 For years now, people have said I look 10-15 years younger than I am though! One time when I was about 30-32, I was with my Dad and we stopped to get gas on the way home. I went inside with just my credit card 💳 in-hand to pay and my Dad asked for a lottery ticket. When I asked the employee for a ticket, she asked for ID! 🪪 I laughed and thought she was joking but ultimately, nope, she was serious! She said they're required to ask for ID from anyone who looks to be 30 or younger and despite me trying to sway her by telling the year I was born and when I graduated, and showing I was old enough to have a credit card etc, SHE REFUSED to sell me a lottery ticket until I showed ID! To say the least, I was too annoyed to go get it from the car and go back in to deal with her again!! 🙄🤦🏻♀️ My secret though? I've been sick with a brain tumor since 2004ish and spent roughly 10 years being bedridden! During those years especially, I generally only left home to go for Drs appts which meant I was outside only long enough to go from buildings to cars and back again! Even now that my health has improved somewhat in the last 6-7 years such that I am no longer bedridden, I also just cannot tolerate heat very well because of my health issues so that has also kept me inside. I've joked for many years at the beginning of summers that it's my goal to end summer being whiter than I was at the beginning!! 🚫🌞 I also think drinking a ton of water 💦 probably has contributed a lot as well. You'll never see me without a water bottle, usually my 32oz bottle that I drink at least 4 of per day then I'll also sometimes have a cup or 2 of tea/coffee/milk and I only drink pop/soda or fruit juices maybe once or twice a month! So between avoiding the sun and staying hydrated, I believe that is how I blow people's minds 🤯 when I tell them my age!! 🤪🤷🏻♀️ That all being said though, I've started noticing changes to my skin in the last couple of years. It's no longer as oily as it used to be and I've had to start using a moisturizer, especially after the shower otherwise my skin feels dry and tight and will even sometimes get flaky or itchy! I've also begun dealing with psoriasis which has been absolutely miserable and demoralizing but that's another story. 🙄🤷🏻♀️🥴😫 So to all trying to keep their skin healthier as they age.. avoid/limit sun exposure, drink lots and moisturize (preferably with sun protection too!)... 😎 Best wishes! 💗
she's def had lip filler (maybe a lip flip with botox too), and probably some in cheeks. i think she's also just got better makeup and stopped plucking her brows so thin.
Can you please do a video on the daily routine on how to target to evening out your skin tone? And the bi-yearly/ yearly laser treatments what kind of laser treatment to do and etc? 🙏 thank you so much
Before and after issues: makeup (and remember folks-foundation is makeup), flash, CLARITY (after picture looks like it has a blurring effect, it is not as clear), Biiig smile versus completely flat expression. I get lines out the wazoo from smiling that big. No matter what, before and after pics should be makeup free, same lighting, same expression, for maximum belief of the claim.
@@maryxoxo9exactly. Remember that foundation that would spray-on like spray paint? In the ad/commercial, the wand isn't even connected to anything while they're demonstrating the product, and showing the before and after. Many companies do this... To us the viewer, it appears like the foundation is going on and smoothing out the skin, making it look flawless. In reality, it's just a filter being applied bit by bit, to rid of any "imperfections" and giving that "glass skin" look
You’re all incorrect^ never attribute to malice whats easily attributable to incompetency. People are lazy. People can’t be bothered to do perfect before/after photos. The end.
@@Canuckbelgosure, no one has freckles when they’re born, they don’t start developing until you’re a toddler; but that’s because they’re melatonin spots that naturally occur due to being in the sun. But there are difference between that and sun damage. A quick google search would’ve explained that to you.
@alices3501 "they occur naturally from being in the sun".... it may not be serious sun damage, but if the sun affects the melatonin enough to cause freckling, it is STILL sun damage. You may like freckles, so you prefer not to consider it "damage," but it is - just less severe. 😉
@@Canuckbelgo I have a mixed heritage and do not burn in the sun. I do seriously think you have to learn a little extra about how melanin works. When you have melanin in your skin and are exposed to the sun, your skin will naturally get dark in order to protect your skin from sun damage. This is called eumelanin and that's responsible for darker eyes, skin and hair. When you are with pheomelanin this pigment is more scattered and less concentrated hence why we have blonde or red hair, lighter skin tones and can have many freckles. The key word here is "scattered"which means it isn't evenly distributed throughout the skin. So when I go in the sun, my skin tans extremely quickly because I have eumelanin. But what causes my freckles is also having pheomelanin which is scattered. This results in parts of my skin that have more melanin cells will darken giving me what's known as freckles. Freckles are not sun damage. Freckles are quite small and are in a typical place like across the bridge of your nose and cheeks. Although many others have them on their arms and upper body and these people are usually white or very fair (like my uncle). The more exposed you are, the sun will trigger those little random melanin cells to pop up. I have more freckles in the summer than I do in the winter and the ones that stay lighten a lot when it's winter time. Sun damage is not able to lighten as it's permanently damaged skin cells that are discoloured from the rays of the sun. Another interesting fact is having pheomelanin can make your more susceptible to developing sun damage as your melanin is scattered and isn't a full sheild however every person born with the receive gene *freckles* will not be a result of sun damage but they can go on to develop sun damage where the spots are bigger and odd looking. So again, freckles and sun damage aren't the same.
Let’s start with the obvious. Better lighting, makeup, hair coloring. I see some surgical enhancements, possible Botox, filler, other laser or derm grade skincare. Lips look fuller and her nose and eyebrows look possibly surgically enhanced. She’s also not smiling so everything looks more still on her face.
She looks like she went from 40 to 25! Although the brow lift, lip lift, and revision rhinoplasty have helped a great deal too. Regardless, excellent progress!
Actually I liked how she looked without surgery more. But of course we’re talking about skin improvement and there’s a lot of difference! I don’t really think the other things are relevant in terms of aging
@@anda3120 she looks good before and after. fk your negative nancy bs. bringing down others by inputting your empty thoughts about another person when no one asked. be better.
@@amaropls4820 this is my opinion, which I‘m allowed to have and say. Surgeries and fillers don‘t do women who are already beautiful any favor most of the time. But each their own.
She mentioned steady laser treatments and a consistent routine targeting evening out skin tone, plus controlling future damage by wearing sunscreen. This is all in the video lol
This is why skin specialists annoy me sometimes. The lighting in one photo is particularly horrible, the lighting in the other is actually pretty decent, the facial expression in one photo is a big smile with wide eyes, the other photo has no facial expression, the editing in one photo is high on saturation which will sharpen any lines and make uneven skin tones more obvious, the editing in the other photo is pretty minimal but likely has a built in softener within the camera used.
Wowwwww.. she looks so much younger! Kudos to you both on such a success! I, myself, just turned 34 & noticed a couple small spots where my freckles (only the kind placed neatly across my cheeks & nose 😂) are now just beginning to look somewhat 'messy' . (Point being, even if you don't have TONS of freckles, they can still end up splotchy!) Thank goodness i found your videos at the right time so i can take your amazing advice and target them before they get any worse!
I have Melasma and once I started using a cream that my dermatologist prescribed, the change was incredible. No more Melasma and my skin tone evened out. It has tret/kojic acid/ hydroquinone in it
I have had 2 treatments of BBL laser for rosacea which did absolutely nothing for me because I made the mistake of doing it when my skin was more tan therefore they used a lower setting. That was $700 down the drain. Also BBL laser is NOT the best laser for broken capillaries and over all redness. My mistake is I went to a spa Not a dermatologist office. Now I have learned that the Vbeam laser which I am Now getting for my rosacea is the best for redness, broken capillaries etc. My first treatment was $200. I have atleast 4-5 more sessions I need to see the best results. It’s definitely expensive. What even funnier is rosacea is considered a medical condition yet the treatment for it is considered “cosmetic” 🙄
@@chaoswitch1974 I had a medium peel and it reduced pigment but not as much and as quickly as laser. Plus it’s the same $$$$ cost for 2 treatments. Definitely good but laser is better even for the healing process and downtime.
Can you talk about the best lasers to treat hyperpigmentation on dark skin? I know many of these lasers are not suited for high concentrations of melanin and it seems as if many dermatologists don’t have the equipment for brown skin nor how to treat discoloration on dark skin
Go for a one and done cosmelan or dermamelan treatment! It’s safe for all skin tones and then you can maintain the results with a good skincare routine it does cost around £850 but from what Ive seen it’s totally worth it
She’s not trying to sell you a product. No specific product was even mentioned, so nit-picking the photos shows people aren’t understanding the point. She’s saying that uneven skin tone is a huge part of looking older, even though many people focus most of their energy on wrinkles. “Get the bang for your buck” by also targeting discoloration and uneven tone.
I would check out her products too. I agree with you on these comments. The woman obviously had work done and all the lighting but come on. It’s completely different and took years. Awesome Dr. She is!
When she said "like going in to have your teeth cleaned without brushing everday" I thought the final point (and the important bit about sun damage and aging skin) would, of course, be to PREVENT the sun damage in the first place. That wearing Sun Protection is important to keep your skin young. But no, it's just about doing skin care routine and using products between professionally done treatments. That is promoting products in my humble opinion. Sure, Sun Screen and a hat are also products, but significantly cheaper.
Ok but several factors like different lighting, different kind of makeup, different amount of makeup, all contribute to why she has more even skin tone on the right
She had her nose done? But it looks good and her skin is glowing! I have freckles and pale skin. Not sun damage- thank you for stating that. We are born with the melanin spots under our skin and the only way they don't come out is if I lived in a cave. I have freckles but no wrinkles or sun spots at age 49.
I was a tanner for a long long time….lucky genetically with a Spanish mother that my skin held up pretty well, but I still had sun damage. I’ve only been to a dermatologist once and didn’t have anything done, just started on Tretinoin cream and started wearing sunscreen. It really helped with pigmented areas (gone) and fine lines, I really don’t have any. Plus, when I started using Tretinoin, I actually saved money, because I didnt need all the other anti-aging products I was using. Now it’s just gentle cleansers, including an oil cleanser, some moisturizing serums, and sunscreen!
okay but try a picture with better lighting, better camera, and no filter....and yes there is some sort of filter, you can see detailed eyelashes, and the smile lines are there but blurred lol.
that doesn't even look like the same person on the right. Fuller eyebrows, Fuller lips, her eyes look bigger in the photo on the right. her nose even looks different
You have like a slight accent and I find it very calming. I think you remind me of an au pair I had as a child. Love that you’re plugging sulfur, such a great product for skin
She has her own skincare line, and I think it focuses on hyper-pigmentation. In one of her videos, she discusses on once having irregular facial coloring herself (Melasma? Brown spots?). Can't remember anything else, lol.
@@loopy4laughs .....or take a similar photo with lighting as the older photo for the results? Or do this in the future for other before and afters No need to be so angry about a reasonable request
I'm new to this but I know I have a lot of red spots and dry skin, how do I even my skin tone or where do I go to find out more information on products I need? I love this transformation! ❤ She looks BEAUTIFUL! It definitely inspires me!
This has also been my experience! In my 20s and early 30s, I don't wear sunscreen, thus developed small dark specks - which I thought was okay. I did learn how to take care of my skin ever since, and to use sunscreen. I thought I had quite youthful skin, but after one laser treatment to remove the specks, my skin looked much younger! Needless to say, I've been religious with my sunscreen now 😅
I hope that the lady had same type of facial movement in both picture . In 2013 picture she is smiling and background is also different but in the newest picture she is not and background also different. Same goes to the camera quality nevertheless i know there's definitely improvement in her skin texture. Her eyebrow also upgraded her looks .
im not whom you asked but in my experience using these has actually made my freckles stand out more and look more defined. as my skin tone evened out my freckles popped more against my skin and i noticed some i hadnt even seen before. i havent noticed any actual freckles getting lighter, just areas of darker pigmentation
Gycolic Acid really helped my sun spots and definitely use sun cream even in winter sun all year round if using this and in general to protect your skin
8 years ago, makeup on that woman that age was also what you saw in the general population (not celebs) and thinner brows damaged from overplucking. Flash photography is unflattering compared to the softer present portrait. Shes regrown her brows, had them transplanted, microbladed, or does better makeup there. Her eye makeup is cleaner and more flattering. Her lips look blushed. Otherwise shes not wearing powder or foundation. This is what 8 years of consistency can do for pigmentation. Consistent. Treatment. Look at Shereens makeup free videos and photos after she had melasma from pregnancy. Completely free of any hyperpigmentation.
Can confirm, I'm in my mid 20s, have pretty normal skin, and look smooth in most photos, but similar yet rougher than that before photo in this one forehead angle close up with flash photo I took for a meme. Angles, expression, and flash make a huge difference. Also btw, I like my skin texture, even with this one rather rough photo of myself that I have 😂 And yes I wear sunscreen daily.
At 80, I finally got back to taking care of my face after I retired.I have been tackling sun damage with Tretinoin and buffing and it has made a huge difference.
She's talking about the hyperpigmentation, not about her fillers or anything else. Just the dark spots. The spots are gone. I used to be covered in hyperpigmentation from the tanning booths, good skin care has fixed it and my face is clear now. It works, the rest everyone in the comments are going after is ridiculous, the lights didn't get rid of her hyperpigmentation, and this isn't about her other work. Women are allowed to do whatever makes them feel better in their in their own skin. Worry about your own skin care and whether you choose fillers etc yourselves.
I honestly don’t understand how anyone thinks she looks younger. She just looks like she’s been cosmetically enhanced, has foundation on, and a light filter on her face. She’s puffier and looks older. But yeah… freckles are gone.
For all of you that are saying this just is a lighting thing. I am one person who is 59 years old now, I had terrible sun damage probably I would say about five or six years ago. It just sort of creeped up on me. It has taken time to get it all cleared up she's absolutely right and what she says. In other words I've done peels and I have done some laser, and also retin a and some other lighteners. The only thing I would not recommend and all of this is Morpheus 8 or anything like it.
Your patient looks more happy and filled with her life than on the right picture. She looks dead and soulless now, almost like an AI. No redness on cheeks, no life in her eyes... I hate it...
I went for a skin assessment as a freckled 32 year old and saw how deep the damage was in the computer assessment. I couldn't believe it. They did 2 rounds of laser on my skin and I began a skincare regime and I felt suddenly more cute... but it wasn't until I compared last summer to this summer that I realized OMG MY SKIN LOOKS SO MUCH BETTER WITHOUT SUN DAMAGE MIXED WITH FRECKLES. I am so glad I began this journey. I love my skin now. I never did before. It's special. Soft freckles remain. ❤
She was prettier without the filler, rhinoplasty and botox regardless of change in skin tone. She looked alive and human compared to the stiff and alien new photo.
Non native english speaker here. Genuine question: Has "frecklers" any subtext that I don' t catch? Freckle is peca and pecoso is simply the adjective used to describe the person who has pecas in spanish. But it doesn' t seem to be the exact equivalence in english. Can somebody explain, please? 🤗
@@sebumpostmortem Lol she kind of coined that term. When she says “frecklers” she means it as in, “someone who freckles” Or - If you get sun exposure and tend to develop freckles. 🤗
My freckles do get darker with sun exposure. I just turned 50, and i had no idea what proper skin care was until about 6 mos ago. When i started looking up neck lifts. Lol Ive deep dove into this subject, and now i have a small organizer in my fridge thats full of retinols, HA, multiple serums & multiple applications. Do AHA peels 2x/wk. Etc. So what im saying is my relationship with the sun is over. Idkw we werent taught how to take care of the largest organ of the body in high school. But no, instead i was fighting for my life in algebra class! Lol doesnt make sense. If i knew everything then, that i know now...everything could have been different. I also find it funny how my most freckled parts (face & arms) is where the majority of my freckles are, and where ive had the most sun exposure. My fat little stomach is pale and scarcely have a freckle.
She looks alive and vibrant in the before but like a wax figure in the after. If evening out your skintone is the key just save yourself some money and get a good foundation.
I always avoided sun, not completely but mostly and my skin was amazing until I got chronically ill a year and a half ago, part of my illness is that my skin is really sensitive to sun and even just a few minutes in sunlight it swells up. I feel like my skin aged tons after this.
I work in Sephora @ Kohls and around six months to a year ago we got much more indepth explanation of what's considered sun damage and that's when I realized all of my mom's ever-growing summer-time freckles she gets while working as a pool manager were actually sunspots and long term sun damage. It was super embarrassing realizing I as a beauty advisor for two years was oblivious to sun damage but omg I had a bad month of commenting on someone's skin damage. I have a tendency to transform into a five year old excited about all the new thing I learned. Great for cool new products we have, not so great with giving people something new to be insecure about. Lucklily my mom likes to just make me feel more stupid for being oblivious, so I didn't hurt her feelings.
Seems she got surgery. An obvios brow lift (at least 5mm higher), perhaps a lip lift because the lips are completely different in shape and fullness, the nose seems to have gotten a past nose job revision, her eyes are more open with perhaps a blepharoplasty, fillers or fat transfer in different areas like cheek area, under eye, etc. Also botox on crows feet. Her eyebrows likely got some procedure to make them fuller. Yeah, I know my surgery info from watching plastic surgeons explain the type of seamless procedures that make a huge difference.
Her brows are way fuller in the after pic which also makes you look younger. She also looks like she has had her a rhinoplasty so that looks different too in after. Beautiful in both pics none the less! Great job doc!
Her makeup and lighting are both a thousand times more flattering too

No amount of lighting can change that.

I got rid of all my hyperpigmentation and acne. My skin literally looks like a filter. Now I keep up a normal routine
We don't think she's wearing foundation in the after pic?
@user-gx1vx7li3x The first photo is way overexposed. It creates color saturation, ie., pink spots, in contrast to the shiny white areas. The subdued lighting in tbe second photo evens out
all texture and gives it a uniform look. A lot of people using the photo comparison technique use overexposure to exaggerate the "flaws".
What I’ve noticing isn’t freckles, but wrinkles and no fat under eyes, loosen skin on cheeks, and on the write the absence of that, which doesn’t happened to people 8 years later. You don’t get fat on your cheeks and under eyes- you loose it.
Yeah she’s clearly using tear trough filler, botox and likely the resources of an entire clinic + photography crew to look like this
Also this looks like it is heavily blurred in the right
lol correct!! That’s Botox and filler!
I didn’t know Botox and filler change your discolored skin 🙄. Y’all are miserable
She's not smiling either in the second photo.
Y’all are focusing on the wrong things. Her fine lines and sun damage are clearly greatly improved, as well as her facial fullness and skin brightness and texture. Of course there are lighting differences, the practice probably had a different technology set up and camera to track patient progress 10 whole years ago.
lol pretty sure the first pic is not from the practice, its just a photo from her life
Lol how would you know when she’s literally smiling in one pic and not in the other
Yea, she probably had fillers and now has lighter skin? So what? Let’s see her in real life while she starts to talk… you will immediately tell she had botox and fillers
@chankero4776 her nose hints at some rhinoplasty too.
Bruh everything is different. The makeup, the camera, the lighting. It’s not even remotely the same facial expression. You can’t compare a smiling pic to a neutral expression.
More on her routine please
Its literally her. She said that was her in a different video 😂

Before and after pictures should be taken in the same lightning, both with neutral expressions.
There’s 10 yrs between the photos. Everyone is a lot better at selfies these days
Also, her hair color is toned down from a brassy blond to a beautiful natural blond, her eyebrows are fuller and more natural looking, the excessive false eyelashes snd black mascara are gone, lips look fuller. Skin tone is an important part of the new look, but only one part. Makeup also appears more matte rather than shiny.
Her thicker and way higher brows make her eyes look three times bigger. Not to talk about the subtle lip flip.
How does a lip flip correct hyperpigmentation?
wrong channel girlie
I th8nk she has had a lip lift done not a lip flip
Still doesn't correct sun damage or hyperpigmentation. Apple and Oranges
@@canesugar911exactly. Mixing apple and Oranges.
I’m just going to embrace aging and love myself the way I am. I’m sick of feeling like I need to look 20 for forever. Aging is beautiful.
Yeah no
You don’t need to look 20 forever. You just need to even out your skin tone, is what this video is specifically trying to say. You can agree with grace.
@@CatsOrangeAndGrey yes but in todays world it’s not just about evening your skin tone. It’s Botox and lifts and plastic surgery. It is about looking 20 forever and that’s why you have 40 year old women panicking because they see women older than them who have had work done and feel like that’s how they should look. The pressure on women to always look younger once they hit 30 is just wrong.
@@Tata83102 Yeah no
There's a difference between natural aging and premature aging from sun damage. One is normal and natural and one can give you cancer. In the first picture, she looks like she's in her late forties. That's a big difference from aging normally
Please do a video on what treating sun damage on someone that also has freckles would look like and what to expect from trying to treat aging signs on a person with freckles!
Yes please! I’m a freckle girl too and I never see what results could look like on our types of skin
Yes and I don't know if they're freckled or sun damage 😅
Yes please
7 months taking my skincare routine seriously every day and my skin is amazing. I struggled with acne even at the age of 34 and it was leaving dark spots of hyperpigmentation on my face. Your advice helped me together with a dermatologist in person.
What did you do to see results?
Yes please let us know!
Last year I started treating my rosacea with prescription topical medication and wearing a separate sunscreen under my makeup. I never intentionally tanned and always wore tinted moisturizer with SPF daily but didn’t realize that wasn’t enough until I started following you and some other dermatologists on TH-cam. I’ve been feeling frustrated that my skin looks so pale lately, but I just looked back at some old photos, and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t realize how much hyperpigmentation and how many age spots I had before. I’ve always had some freckles and thought my age spots were freckles too but now I can see I was wrong. At age 40 my skin is more even and clear than it was 5 years ago. I still have some permanent redness on my cheeks and around my nose from rosacea that I may seek out some laser treatments to address, but my rosacea has much improved, and my age spots have faded a lot. I can say that daily sunscreen really does make a big difference in helping to reduce hyperpigmentation and redness.
Edited to add: I don’t use anything in my skincare routine specifically to target hyperpigmentation. I use metronidazole gel for my rosacea. I double cleanse with micellar water/makeup removing balm and a gentle cleanser, I wear a mineral sunscreen during the day and moisturizer at night, and a few days a week I use a gentle Retinol around my eyes and on my forehead.
*An "avoiding sub damage" testimonial, here.* Ppl really don't understand just how much difference sun damage makes; like, everyone knows it causes premature aging, but most have no concept of just _how much_ of the "normal" aging we take for granted is actually premature.
I was born with what my Bubbe used to call "an English rose" complexion, so from the time I could toddle, I wasn't even allowed into the back garden without sunscreen & a hat; I burn _so_ easily. By the time of my teens, it was just part of my daily routine; shower, brush teeth, apply sunscreen. Bc it was habit, I've kept it up as an adult. And the result?
Well, this is going to sound like a humblebrag, but I figured it was a relevant + I should post a comment; I'm 40 in 4 months, & I've really only started visibly aging in the last couple of years - ppl still consistently pick me as like 7 years younger than I am (even long-term friends [I'm in a mixed-ages friend group, so specific numbers don't actually come up that often] get all Surprised Pikachu when I happen to mention my age) & I had like a decade of "being" 25 + having to correct ppl.
It was tough being a teenager in the late 90s + early 2000s when tanning + bronzer were the big ideal (I did try self-tan a few times, but even with the expensive stuff, it just didn't look right on me), but staying the course & protecting my "glimmering moontan" to quote my (still! 🥰)bestie has really paid off; now former classmates who've friended me on social media refuse to believe I don't filter my selfies (it's not a principle thing, I'm just too lazy to learn new tech).
I'm sure _some_ of it is probs not having had children + never being a smoker. I do not doubt that.
But I'm pretty sure the majority is down to my ritual application of sunscreen that I still practice everyday, even if I'm not leaving the house + just as part of my morning toilette, & my routine donning of a wide-brimmed hat (& sometimes, on particularly bright days, a big black golf umbrella, too) before I step out of the door - even just to walk the 9m down the driveway to check the letterbox, lol.
So what the hell to I do if I already screwed up any I'm 31 with a lot of sun damage? Like? Just die alone? Wear a paper bag over my head? I'm broke, I can't buy expensive treatments.
@MorganHyde-ie5ru just start using sunscreen every day _now,_ & get derm advice on whether vitamin c + retinol (both available very cheaply from any place that sells skincare at all) are right for you. They're expensive, but a one-off consultation is well worth the investment for getting advice.
@@MorganHyde-ie5ru well for one thing, you could start now with sunscreen and wide brimmed hat! I’m in my 30s and didn’t consistently wear a wide brimmed hat till now, but I am pretty consistent with it now!
I got mine from San Diego hat company and I really like it has a hole in the top for my ponytail 😊
I'm 33 and people think I'm 17 sometimes. No joke. A teenager at my job asked me what high school I go to....I didn't start using sunscreen regularly til my late 20s. A lot of it is just genetics.
I can relate. However, my story is a little different!!... I just turned 40 in January and even just 2 weeks before, I was chatting with my neighbor and I asked her how old she thought I looked before I answered her. She guessed '32 max!' I laughed 😂 and told her my 40th was around the corner and she was shocked then admitted she actually wanted to say 28 but worried I would think she was implying I'm somehow immature but she didn't believe I was even in my 30's yet! Then I asked her age and she's 43 so it's not like she doesn't know what women in their 30's-40's look like! 😂
For years now, people have said I look 10-15 years younger than I am though! One time when I was about 30-32, I was with my Dad and we stopped to get gas on the way home. I went inside with just my credit card 💳 in-hand to pay and my Dad asked for a lottery ticket. When I asked the employee for a ticket, she asked for ID! 🪪 I laughed and thought she was joking but ultimately, nope, she was serious! She said they're required to ask for ID from anyone who looks to be 30 or younger and despite me trying to sway her by telling the year I was born and when I graduated, and showing I was old enough to have a credit card etc, SHE REFUSED to sell me a lottery ticket until I showed ID! To say the least, I was too annoyed to go get it from the car and go back in to deal with her again!! 🙄🤦🏻♀️
My secret though? I've been sick with a brain tumor since 2004ish and spent roughly 10 years being bedridden! During those years especially, I generally only left home to go for Drs appts which meant I was outside only long enough to go from buildings to cars and back again! Even now that my health has improved somewhat in the last 6-7 years such that I am no longer bedridden, I also just cannot tolerate heat very well because of my health issues so that has also kept me inside. I've joked for many years at the beginning of summers that it's my goal to end summer being whiter than I was at the beginning!! 🚫🌞
I also think drinking a ton of water 💦 probably has contributed a lot as well. You'll never see me without a water bottle, usually my 32oz bottle that I drink at least 4 of per day then I'll also sometimes have a cup or 2 of tea/coffee/milk and I only drink pop/soda or fruit juices maybe once or twice a month! So between avoiding the sun and staying hydrated, I believe that is how I blow people's minds 🤯 when I tell them my age!! 🤪🤷🏻♀️
That all being said though, I've started noticing changes to my skin in the last couple of years. It's no longer as oily as it used to be and I've had to start using a moisturizer, especially after the shower otherwise my skin feels dry and tight and will even sometimes get flaky or itchy! I've also begun dealing with psoriasis which has been absolutely miserable and demoralizing but that's another story. 🙄🤷🏻♀️🥴😫
So to all trying to keep their skin healthier as they age.. avoid/limit sun exposure, drink lots and moisturize (preferably with sun protection too!)... 😎 Best wishes! 💗
I wonder if she had any procedures :o
Her eyebrows look higher and the lips fuller which makes you look fresher /younger as well
I think she might roll her upper lips up when she smiles
She’s definitely had work done as well as a nose job. She probably gets more than just a regular skin routine.
I was about to say she doesn't even look like the same person... Face lift, revision rhinoplasty, and lip filler maybe?
she's def had lip filler (maybe a lip flip with botox too), and probably some in cheeks. i think she's also just got better makeup and stopped plucking her brows so thin.
The first thing I noticed the woman definitely didn’t just had skincare treatment but plastic surgery and probably laser treatment for the skin
Can you please do a video on the daily routine on how to target to evening out your skin tone? And the bi-yearly/ yearly laser treatments what kind of laser treatment to do and etc? 🙏 thank you so much
Wow!! She looks so much happier in her earlier life. 😮
I hope she has joy now. ❤️🩹
Before and after issues: makeup (and remember folks-foundation is makeup), flash, CLARITY (after picture looks like it has a blurring effect, it is not as clear), Biiig smile versus completely flat expression. I get lines out the wazoo from smiling that big.
No matter what, before and after pics should be makeup free, same lighting, same expression, for maximum belief of the claim.
Why does every before and after head shot in the history of before and after head shots ALWAYS feature different lighting? It’s infuriating.
To deceive us on the effectiveness of the treatments and products.
@@maryxoxo9Yes. Young women need to educate themselves about this deceptive practice before they open their wallets.
@@maryxoxo9exactly. Remember that foundation that would spray-on like spray paint? In the ad/commercial, the wand isn't even connected to anything while they're demonstrating the product, and showing the before and after. Many companies do this... To us the viewer, it appears like the foundation is going on and smoothing out the skin, making it look flawless. In reality, it's just a filter being applied bit by bit, to rid of any "imperfections" and giving that "glass skin" look
It’s called false advertising
You’re all incorrect^ never attribute to malice whats easily attributable to incompetency.
People are lazy. People can’t be bothered to do perfect before/after photos. The end.
This doctors skin and personality is beautiful. She honestly seems so easy to talk to and I feel like she’s my friend when I watch these videos.
That's amazing that evening out your skin tone,can give you full lips and a totally differant nose,and reversed aging
She looks fantastic! Well done Dr. Idriss!
She looks genuinely happy in the first picture.
Yes! It would be interesting to see what she looks like smiling & genuinely happy. With all the procedures, can she smile? Very pretty lady!
Reminds me of cameron diaz @@sharoncripps6903
💯🫵🏻
Yep, I have freckles and sun damage and they are very different!
😂 Have you ever seen a baby born with freckles?
Nah, it's the same thing and she knows it.
@@Canuckbelgosure, no one has freckles when they’re born, they don’t start developing until you’re a toddler; but that’s because they’re melatonin spots that naturally occur due to being in the sun. But there are difference between that and sun damage. A quick google search would’ve explained that to you.
@alices3501 "they occur naturally from being in the sun".... it may not be serious sun damage, but if the sun affects the melatonin enough to cause freckling, it is STILL sun damage.
You may like freckles, so you prefer not to consider it "damage," but it is - just less severe. 😉
@@Canuckbelgo I have a mixed heritage and do not burn in the sun. I do seriously think you have to learn a little extra about how melanin works.
When you have melanin in your skin and are exposed to the sun, your skin will naturally get dark in order to protect your skin from sun damage. This is called eumelanin and that's responsible for darker eyes, skin and hair.
When you are with pheomelanin this pigment is more scattered and less concentrated hence why we have blonde or red hair, lighter skin tones and can have many freckles. The key word here is "scattered"which means it isn't evenly distributed throughout the skin. So when I go in the sun, my skin tans extremely quickly because I have eumelanin. But what causes my freckles is also having pheomelanin which is scattered. This results in parts of my skin that have more melanin cells will darken giving me what's known as freckles. Freckles are not sun damage. Freckles are quite small and are in a typical place like across the bridge of your nose and cheeks. Although many others have them on their arms and upper body and these people are usually white or very fair (like my uncle). The more exposed you are, the sun will trigger those little random melanin cells to pop up.
I have more freckles in the summer than I do in the winter and the ones that stay lighten a lot when it's winter time. Sun damage is not able to lighten as it's permanently damaged skin cells that are discoloured from the rays of the sun.
Another interesting fact is having pheomelanin can make your more susceptible to developing sun damage as your melanin is scattered and isn't a full sheild however every person born with the receive gene *freckles* will not be a result of sun damage but they can go on to develop sun damage where the spots are bigger and odd looking.
So again, freckles and sun damage aren't the same.
Let’s start with the obvious. Better lighting, makeup, hair coloring. I see some surgical enhancements, possible Botox, filler, other laser or derm grade skincare. Lips look fuller and her nose and eyebrows look possibly surgically enhanced. She’s also not smiling so everything looks more still on her face.
Absolutely😂😂😂
She looks like she went from 40 to 25! Although the brow lift, lip lift, and revision rhinoplasty have helped a great deal too. Regardless, excellent progress!
Actually I liked how she looked without surgery more. But of course we’re talking about skin improvement and there’s a lot of difference! I don’t really think the other things are relevant in terms of aging
No she actually looked better before
@@anda3120 she looks good before and after. fk your negative nancy bs. bringing down others by inputting your empty thoughts about another person when no one asked. be better.
@@amaropls4820 this is my opinion, which I‘m allowed to have and say. Surgeries and fillers don‘t do women who are already beautiful any favor most of the time. But each their own.
You said surgeries when it is probably just make up lol. Some people look different with age.
What kind of skin care is this patient using? Also, what type of procedures has she had? Thank you in advance!!
Right? She does not even mention what we shld use or do. So what is the point of the video?
She mentioned steady laser treatments and a consistent routine targeting evening out skin tone, plus controlling future damage by wearing sunscreen. This is all in the video lol
Picture on the left she looks beautiful and natural, picture on the right she had some major work done and she is unrecognizable
This is why skin specialists annoy me sometimes. The lighting in one photo is particularly horrible, the lighting in the other is actually pretty decent, the facial expression in one photo is a big smile with wide eyes, the other photo has no facial expression, the editing in one photo is high on saturation which will sharpen any lines and make uneven skin tones more obvious, the editing in the other photo is pretty minimal but likely has a built in softener within the camera used.
She looks gorgeous. Well done.
Wow doctor, what treatments did you do this is amazing honestly amazing results
Wowwwww.. she looks so much younger! Kudos to you both on such a success!
I, myself, just turned 34 & noticed a couple small spots where my freckles (only the kind placed neatly across my cheeks & nose 😂) are now just beginning to look somewhat 'messy' . (Point being, even if you don't have TONS of freckles, they can still end up splotchy!)
Thank goodness i found your videos at the right time so i can take your amazing advice and target them before they get any worse!
I have Melasma and once I started using a cream that my dermatologist prescribed, the change was incredible. No more Melasma and my skin tone evened out. It has tret/kojic acid/ hydroquinone in it
Holy cow! She looks so beautiful
I can imagine the $$$$ she has paid.
Right, when a medium peel would do the same thing in one month.
That's what I was thinking
I have had 2 treatments of BBL laser for rosacea which did absolutely nothing for me because I made the mistake of doing it when my skin was more tan therefore they used a lower setting. That was $700 down the drain. Also BBL laser is NOT the best laser for broken capillaries and over all redness. My mistake is I went to a spa Not a dermatologist office. Now I have learned that the Vbeam laser which I am Now getting for my rosacea is the best for redness, broken capillaries etc. My first treatment was $200. I have atleast 4-5 more sessions I need to see the best results. It’s definitely expensive. What even funnier is rosacea is considered a medical condition yet the treatment for it is considered “cosmetic” 🙄
@@chaoswitch1974girl not true don’t lie
@@chaoswitch1974 I had a medium peel and it reduced pigment but not as much and as quickly as laser. Plus it’s the same $$$$ cost for 2 treatments. Definitely good but laser is better even for the healing process and downtime.
Can you talk about the best lasers to treat hyperpigmentation on dark skin? I know many of these lasers are not suited for high concentrations of melanin and it seems as if many dermatologists don’t have the equipment for brown skin nor how to treat discoloration on dark skin
Go for a one and done cosmelan or dermamelan treatment! It’s safe for all skin tones and then you can maintain the results with a good skincare routine it does cost around £850 but from what Ive seen it’s totally worth it
The best laser for dark skin hyperpigmentation is nd:YAG laser. I recommend finding a dermatologist that uses this laser.
She’s not trying to sell you a product. No specific product was even mentioned, so nit-picking the photos shows people aren’t understanding the point. She’s saying that uneven skin tone is a huge part of looking older, even though many people focus most of their energy on wrinkles. “Get the bang for your buck” by also targeting discoloration and uneven tone.
I would check out her products too. I agree with you on these comments. The woman obviously had work done and all the lighting but come on. It’s completely different and took years. Awesome Dr. She is!
When she said "like going in to have your teeth cleaned without brushing everday" I thought the final point (and the important bit about sun damage and aging skin) would, of course, be to PREVENT the sun damage in the first place. That wearing Sun Protection is important to keep your skin young.
But no, it's just about doing skin care routine and using products between professionally done treatments. That is promoting products in my humble opinion. Sure, Sun Screen and a hat are also products, but significantly cheaper.
Ok but several factors like different lighting, different kind of makeup, different amount of makeup, all contribute to why she has more even skin tone on the right
Do you have a video recommending a skin care regimen specifically for evening out your skin tone? I would be very interested in seeing that!
She had her nose done? But it looks good and her skin is glowing! I have freckles and pale skin. Not sun damage- thank you for stating that. We are born with the melanin spots under our skin and the only way they don't come out is if I lived in a cave. I have freckles but no wrinkles or sun spots at age 49.
Nose job and eyebrow lift 🙂
I love your channel. SO helpful.
I was a tanner for a long long time….lucky genetically with a Spanish mother that my skin held up pretty well, but I still had sun damage. I’ve only been to a dermatologist once and didn’t have anything done, just started on Tretinoin cream and started wearing sunscreen. It really helped with pigmented areas (gone) and fine lines, I really don’t have any. Plus, when I started using Tretinoin, I actually saved money, because I didnt need all the other anti-aging products I was using. Now it’s just gentle cleansers, including an oil cleanser, some moisturizing serums, and sunscreen!
okay but try a picture with better lighting, better camera, and no filter....and yes there is some sort of filter, you can see detailed eyelashes, and the smile lines are there but blurred lol.
that doesn't even look like the same person on the right. Fuller eyebrows, Fuller lips, her eyes look bigger in the photo on the right. her nose even looks different
I think there have been some cosmetic enhancements in that time as well
Doesn't remotely look like the same person..
Omg I love you for this. Every product I could find was either pricey or had 50 ingredients I don't want. Now I can just make my own moisturizer
What did you do for her fine lines and wrinkles? Botox? Filler?
You have like a slight accent and I find it very calming. I think you remind me of an au pair I had as a child.
Love that you’re plugging sulfur, such a great product for skin
She looks beautiful! What has she all done ? And how old is she?
If I’m not wrong, she’s 39, or 40.
Youre absurdly gorgeous, incredible makeup. Her progress in shocking too.
Is this what you did too? Your skin is flawless, I wish I could find a dermatologist like you in my area!
The doctor is like 13 years old! Jk - but she looks like she’s right out of med school.
She has her own skincare line, and I think it focuses on hyper-pigmentation. In one of her videos, she discusses on once having irregular facial coloring herself (Melasma? Brown spots?). Can't remember anything else, lol.
Tell us what to do and what products to use please! 😊 What has she been doing?
Could you get better pictures, at least 1. the same distance, 2. the same facial expression, and 3. the same lightning (including w/o flash)?

Who cares you are beautiful with personality that it God bless you be just a good person... So bussiness bad.. 😊
This has also been my experience! In my 20s and early 30s, I don't wear sunscreen, thus developed small dark specks - which I thought was okay. I did learn how to take care of my skin ever since, and to use sunscreen. I thought I had quite youthful skin, but after one laser treatment to remove the specks, my skin looked much younger! Needless to say, I've been religious with my sunscreen now 😅
I hope that the lady had same type of facial movement in both picture . In 2013 picture she is smiling and background is also different but in the newest picture she is not and background also different. Same goes to the camera quality nevertheless i know there's definitely improvement in her skin texture. Her eyebrow also upgraded her looks .
Yes, she has way more space between her eye and eyebrow in the second pucture, and her lips are fuller
Can you please be specific…what laser treatments as well as what you proscribed her for daily, weekly at home care.
Can topical vitamin c, niacinamide, retinols, ahas or other actives fade freckles over time? I don't want to lose mine since they're very soft anyways
im not whom you asked but in my experience using these has actually made my freckles stand out more and look more defined. as my skin tone evened out my freckles popped more against my skin and i noticed some i hadnt even seen before. i havent noticed any actual freckles getting lighter, just areas of darker pigmentation
@@chickenfoot2423 that's reassuring, thanks :)

Gycolic Acid really helped my sun spots and definitely use sun cream even in winter sun all year round if using this and in general to protect your skin
8 years ago, makeup on that woman that age was also what you saw in the general population (not celebs) and thinner brows damaged from overplucking. Flash photography is unflattering compared to the softer present portrait. Shes regrown her brows, had them transplanted, microbladed, or does better makeup there. Her eye makeup is cleaner and more flattering. Her lips look blushed. Otherwise shes not wearing powder or foundation. This is what 8 years of consistency can do for pigmentation. Consistent. Treatment. Look at Shereens makeup free videos and photos after she had melasma from pregnancy. Completely free of any hyperpigmentation.
The difference lighting, makeup & airbrush can make.
She's beautiful 😻
How did her nose change
Rhinoplasty maybe 🤔
Thank you. This was insightful
But one has a flash and the other doesn't..makes a big difference
Can confirm, I'm in my mid 20s, have pretty normal skin, and look smooth in most photos, but similar yet rougher than that before photo in this one forehead angle close up with flash photo I took for a meme. Angles, expression, and flash make a huge difference.
Also btw, I like my skin texture, even with this one rather rough photo of myself that I have 😂
And yes I wear sunscreen daily.
Would be helpful if uh told what products , speicifc ingredients help.
Did this woman just call freckles unfortunate
So glad I found you, really enjoying your info!
Lighting also has a lot to do with it…. This can be deceiving
At 80, I finally got back to taking care of my face after I retired.I have been tackling sun damage with Tretinoin and buffing and it has made a huge difference.
Before looks alive, after looks 💀😬
Ty for sharing your knowledge!
Still ppl sitting in direct sunlight they look 49 while they are still in their 20s
She's talking about the hyperpigmentation, not about her fillers or anything else. Just the dark spots. The spots are gone. I used to be covered in hyperpigmentation from the tanning booths, good skin care has fixed it and my face is clear now. It works, the rest everyone in the comments are going after is ridiculous, the lights didn't get rid of her hyperpigmentation, and this isn't about her other work. Women are allowed to do whatever makes them feel better in their in their own skin. Worry about your own skin care and whether you choose fillers etc yourselves.
I honestly don’t understand how anyone thinks she looks younger. She just looks like she’s been cosmetically enhanced, has foundation on, and a light filter on her face. She’s puffier and looks older. But yeah… freckles are gone.
Would have liked to see her smile in the after so we can truly determine the differences!
For all of you that are saying this just is a lighting thing. I am one person who is 59 years old now, I had terrible sun damage probably I would say about five or six years ago. It just sort of creeped up on me.
It has taken time to get it all cleared up she's absolutely right and what she says. In other words I've done peels and I have done some laser, and also retin a and some other lighteners. The only thing I would not recommend and all of this is Morpheus 8 or anything like it.
Considering the ageing process is ongoing, looking YOUNGER in 8 years is a massive achievement !!
Your patient looks more happy and filled with her life than on the right picture. She looks dead and soulless now, almost like an AI. No redness on cheeks, no life in her eyes... I hate it...
it has nothing to do with her.. if she changed mentally over the years it's not the dermatologist to be blame

@@minminn7760 Who's to say she didn't leave after disliking the treatment? You don't know the backstory and neither do I. I'm saying how I see it.
@@Oki3e she has been treating her for 10 YEARS. not just 1 treatment. if i hated smth i would stop it asap and not spend 10 yeas and tons of money
I went for a skin assessment as a freckled 32 year old and saw how deep the damage was in the computer assessment. I couldn't believe it. They did 2 rounds of laser on my skin and I began a skincare regime and I felt suddenly more cute... but it wasn't until I compared last summer to this summer that I realized OMG MY SKIN LOOKS SO MUCH BETTER WITHOUT SUN DAMAGE MIXED WITH FRECKLES. I am so glad I began this journey. I love my skin now. I never did before. It's special. Soft freckles remain. ❤
The best way to gain youth in your skin,just like in this video is a good photo editor! Ha ha
She was prettier without the filler, rhinoplasty and botox regardless of change in skin tone. She looked alive and human compared to the stiff and alien new photo.
Frecklers.
Yeah, she is starting to get nasty.
Non native english speaker here. Genuine question: Has "frecklers" any subtext that I don' t catch? Freckle is peca and pecoso is simply the adjective used to describe the person who has pecas in spanish. But it doesn' t seem to be the exact equivalence in english. Can somebody explain, please? 🤗

Lol she kind of coined that term. When she says “frecklers” she means it as in, “someone who freckles” Or - If you get sun exposure and tend to develop freckles.
🤗
I like the name Frecklers. Lol Coming from someone who's lived with freckles. They've been called much worse. Lol
My freckles do get darker with sun exposure.
I just turned 50, and i had no idea what proper skin care was until about 6 mos ago. When i started looking up neck lifts. Lol
Ive deep dove into this subject, and now i have a small organizer in my fridge thats full of retinols, HA, multiple serums & multiple applications. Do AHA peels 2x/wk. Etc.
So what im saying is my relationship with the sun is over.
Idkw we werent taught how to take care of the largest organ of the body in high school. But no, instead i was fighting for my life in algebra class! Lol doesnt make sense. If i knew everything then, that i know now...everything could have been different.
I also find it funny how my most freckled parts (face & arms) is where the majority of my freckles are, and where ive had the most sun exposure. My fat little stomach is pale and scarcely have a freckle.
Freckles look messy even without sun damage
I have them and have to agree. Lol
Jesus, why is everyone nitpicking this girl to death. Skin is the only thing being taked about in this video.
She looks alive and vibrant in the before but like a wax figure in the after.
If evening out your skintone is the key just save yourself some money and get a good foundation.
We need more dermatologists like you ♥️
Are we not gonna talk about how the hair, makeup, brow lift, lip fillers and lighting made a hugeee difference?
Wow amazing result!!👌
Im sold! Please tell us how/what to do to follow your recommendation.
Hey can ypu explain which treatments and skincare shes used/had? 😊🌈
That is NOT only skin care routine. She has done a lot to her face and light is also different...
It would be nice to have an after with harsh lighting too.
I always avoided sun, not completely but mostly and my skin was amazing until I got chronically ill a year and a half ago, part of my illness is that my skin is really sensitive to sun and even just a few minutes in sunlight it swells up. I feel like my skin aged tons after this.
I work in Sephora @ Kohls and around six months to a year ago we got much more indepth explanation of what's considered sun damage and that's when I realized all of my mom's ever-growing summer-time freckles she gets while working as a pool manager were actually sunspots and long term sun damage. It was super embarrassing realizing I as a beauty advisor for two years was oblivious to sun damage but omg I had a bad month of commenting on someone's skin damage. I have a tendency to transform into a five year old excited about all the new thing I learned. Great for cool new products we have, not so great with giving people something new to be insecure about. Lucklily my mom likes to just make me feel more stupid for being oblivious, so I didn't hurt her feelings.
Seems she got surgery. An obvios brow lift (at least 5mm higher), perhaps a lip lift because the lips are completely different in shape and fullness, the nose seems to have gotten a past nose job revision, her eyes are more open with perhaps a blepharoplasty, fillers or fat transfer in different areas like cheek area, under eye, etc. Also botox on crows feet. Her eyebrows likely got some procedure to make them fuller. Yeah, I know my surgery info from watching plastic surgeons explain the type of seamless procedures that make a huge difference.
Her brows are way fuller in the after pic which also makes you look younger. She also looks like she has had her a rhinoplasty so that looks different too in after. Beautiful in both pics none the less!
Great job doc!
