Your skin is a living organ. You can't just take

a pill or have an injection to bring about a

quick change. We don't know if in a few years time, they

tell us this particular injectable actually causes X,

Y, Z. My skin is looking dull. What is it that I'm doing to it

causing that dullness? Those are two things straight off the bat that's gonna

help with skin dullness. Welcome to the Holistic Skin

Guru, where what's on the surface is just as important as

what's underneath. I'm your host, Aamena. Let's dive deep

into the world of holistic skincare. Welcome

back to another episode. Today, I'm here to tell you that cosmetic injectables

are out, and this is the new thing to look out

for, skin rejuvenation injections. This

is what you need to get your skin health back up to scratch if

you have relied on fillers for a long time.

Now, generally speaking, I would not be encouraging people to

have injectables, but if you've had lots and lots of filler

and you're thinking about dissolving them, then this

is the next step for you. Skin rejuvenation injections

usually are called Profilo, that's just a

brand. It is one of the skin

rejuvenation injections that I've been reading about and I'm quite impressed

with how the skin is responding. It's

not a filler. There's a lot of confusion in the industry. Some nurses

will tell you it is a filler and some will tell you it's not, but if you actually go

to their website and you read up about it, it is not a filler. Okay.

It is injected into the skin in five points around

the face and it builds the strength of the skin from

within. It's a great pick-me-up after you've had

fillers dissolved. and you've been using fillers and Botox

as your skincare over the years. And

it's a great way to break the cycle. Once you've had the Profilo, once

you've dissolved the fillers and had the Profilo, then

you can come in and have some really beautiful holistic skin

treatments and come into a clinic like ours

that's holistic and we can actually guide you as to how you can

move forward. I believe 2024 is going to be

the year of less fillers. There is so much out there. Stop

listening to corporate clinics by jumping into their deals

without real knowledge about your skin and your skin

goals. Injectors have had way too much leeway

and that has impacted so much on women. and

men who are walking around with the same look that

is not flattering to anyone. How many people have you seen in the street where

you can just tell they've had filler? You can tell they've

had Botox? Let's stop. 2024 is the year

of less filler. keeping your face

natural, the facial structure and the facial shape

without losing volume or fat, using active

skincare to help the skin heal and function to

the best of its ability, setting realistic skin

expectations, understanding your treatments and not

owning your skin, making good decisions. And

all of this will result in a more natural result.

For you, it means that you need to start thinking about long

term goals and long term scenarios.

We're tired of the quick fixes. 2024 is

about looking at your overall health as well as

your skin health. You want to start eliminating all

the toxicity from your skin care, but also from your

diet and from your life. That includes toxic people and

toxic product on your skin, which is injectables. So

let's get rid of all of that for 2024. Let's reset. Let's

be real. It doesn't matter if you have a smile

line. It doesn't matter if you have crow's feet. It's

all part of your character. It's what builds you. It

is what is you. It's what makes you, you and

what people recognize when they look at you. Do you want to be

unrecognizable? No. You want people to

know you for who you are. What you want is glow and

health. And to get that, you need to look at your skin

care regimen and your overall health of

your body and your skin. This is the way to

get completely rejuvenated for 2024. So

we live in a world where we're so addicted to this

dopamine hit. You know, every single time we open up our phones and

we look at social media, we get a little dopamine hit and we are

so addicted to that. To the point where we look in the mirror

and we're trying to get the same dopamine hit from looking in

the mirror as we do from looking at Instagram images or

YouTube images or videos. We're not getting that.

So when we don't like what we see in the mirror, we then go

looking for a quick fix. to try to give us that dopamine

hit. Now, your skin is a living organ. You

can't just take a pill or have an injection to

bring about a quick change. You need to look at what's causing

the problems in your skin first and then work

backwards from there and say, okay, my skin is looking dull. What

is it that I'm doing to it that's causing that dullness? I

may not be getting enough sleep. That's an easy fix. I may not be drinking enough

water. That's even easier. If my body's not hydrated enough, I

have to make sure that I am including or incorporating Celtic

sea salt on my tongue before

I drink some water to help my body retain that

hydration faster. Those are two things straight off the bat that's going

to help with skin dullness. It can be other things like

you may not be exfoliating the dead skin cell off your of

your face and that's causing the dullness or you

may be not eating the right foods and

that's causing the dullness. So if you're not eating enough fresh fruit or

whole foods, you're eating too many processed foods that can

actually show in your skin and cause a kind

of graying or dullness on the skin. So we want to incorporate whole

foods, fresh foods, fresh water, Preferably water

that's been filtered and alkaline. We

want to make sure that our diets are correct so

we're glowing that beautiful hydrated look. So

straight off the bat, there's so many small little things that you can do

that is really for free. Like you don't have to go out and

get an expensive injectable to be able to feel like you've

done something. In most cases, it's a bandaid because

within time that's going to wear off and you're going to have to go back and

have another injection done. And the science is still out there.

We don't actually know. There's not enough research to tell us the

effects these injectables will have on our skin. We

don't know if in a few years time they tell

us, oh, by the way, you know, this particular

injectable, this brand of injectable actually causes X,

Y, Z. Now, we don't want to get to that point and regret our decisions that

we're making now. So put a lot of thought into what you're doing. Think

about what factors are contributing to

you not feeling great and seek

some professional help. Come to people like us and ask the

questions. In most cases, it's free. As long

as we have the time to chat, we will try to

give you as much information as we can. These podcasts are

designed to help you make correct decisions. So feel

free to watch as many of my content as you like and
