Transform Your Looks WITHOUT Surgery (The Power of the Fotona 4D Laser) | Dr. Joy Kong & Jenny Jones

Can you add stem cells or, you know, you can also do some peptides. Can you add that with the laser?

Yeah, I'm all about holistic, you know, combination of treatments. We've done it, you know, even at the same time.

Okay.

Because the stem cells I'm giving people are attracted to the area of injury. So when you do laser treatments, you're creating a tiny bit of injury and that will attract more cells into the area. So the cells will, you know, or even work harder at whatever they're trying to do to bring more youthfulness for regeneration.

Hi, this is Dr. Joy Kong. So I've been talking about stem cells all the time, which is my passion. I can't stop talking about it. But today I was interviewed by Jenny, who is a biohacker and she was asking me about aesthetic treatments that I'm excited about, which I do offer at my clinic. This is a fairly new addition for the past year. So it's a fun discuss. We talked about laser treatment is very natural. I really hope you enjoy this episode. It's not long, but it was a fun discussion.

Okay. Hi, I'm Dr. Joy Kong and as you know, I'm an anti aging doctor and stem cell specialist. And today I have Jenny Jones, also known as Biohacker Blondie, here at our clinic, Uplift Longevity Center. So we're going to talk a little bit about a few things that a biohacker may find interesting. So maybe you have questions that you think that other people would be interested to in answers.

Yes. So I know you're, you know, big into stem cells, which we did a whole podcast about, but I also know that you do lasers as well and you love to lift and get rid of wrinkles and hopefully pigmentation. So I have so many questions about what are your favorite lasers? What are your favorite tools to make our skin vibrant and look young and glowing?

So, yeah, so lasers this is that laser technology is a new addition to my clinic. At first I was just seeking them out because I wanted to do something for my own skin. Because your skin actually takes on a lot of insults from the environment. If you don't believe it, just look at your face versus, you know, your chest or your tummy. Right. So the face have so many more wrinkles and pigmentations is because it's taking on so much environmental, you know. Yeah. So it needs a little bit extra care if you want to maintain the youthfulness. So I realized the laser technology can do some amazing things. So instead of people going into something that's more invasive like Cutting or putting, threading or Botox. Botox I think is fantastic. But you know, the other methods are kind of invasive. If there's a way to naturally boost your skin texture and volume and lifting, then that will be much more ideal. Because with all the cutting and lifting and plumping that people, you know, fillers, people start to look pretty unnatural and no one wants to look like that. And I certainly rather just look older than look freakish. So. So that laser technology is something that I realize can accomplish that because it's very quite non invasive.

Right.

We don't cut anything. We just use light energy to target particular, particular layers of your skin. So we can target layers that can promote more collagen. We can target layers that can help maybe create lifting. And we can target the surface so we can resurface. But we also, the laser machine not only can target the face, but also can reduce fat. So basically drain fat from fat cells and, and really reduce the number of fat cells and then tighten the skin on top of it. It can do so much more. But I just want to talk about the. What I'm the most excited about. Well, for just anyone who's doing general anti aging maintenance is the 4D facelift. Because it goes after your face rejuvenation, going in through four levels. So first goes inside your mouth because it's tightening everything from the inside.

You're doing the laser.

Yeah. There's very few machines or no machines, really no other machine that actually is targeting the inside of the mouth. But the lower third of our face is very hard to handle. Yeah. As we age, you see people with the jowl. Yeah. So that really is telltale sign. Right. And unless you do facelift, it's very hard to get rid of that kind of drooping. But this machine can do that. One way it does it is to go inside and tighten everything from the inside. Oh my God. And then it does is vector lifting. So it can literally create tiny little scarring that along the line, certain directions to pin your face up. So it can lift up your face without cutting. Right. It's, it's, it's a very, very gentle way of pulling everything up. Is this heat.

And with the laser as well as there heat involved.

Very little heat. Okay. Yeah. The firstly is the laser very, very penetrating wavelength. So that's very specific as far as what it targets. Okay. So you can target particular layer, particular layers, particular cells. The laser can also do this overall tightening. So it does this tighten. It feels like I always say, shrink wrapping is like, you know, Just pulling everything, you know, I need everything. Yeah. It tightens, and then it keeps promoting the collagen production. So it will keep pumping, so you will see the benefit even over time. And then the last layer is resurfacing, so it gets rid of fine wrinkles and blemishes, you know, different, you know, different sunspots and, you know, other discolorations. So it's. It's absolutely amazing. So people look very refreshed.

Oh, my God.

You know, with the tightening and lifting and thinning and reserving.

How long does this procedure take?

Only 45 minutes.

Okay, so 45 minutes, and then how long is the recovery?

I mean, it's kind of overnight, actually. On the same day, you can go out to dinner if you want to. You will look a little red.

Yeah.

A little sun, you know, just red. Look like you had a lot of sun that day. But you can still go out to dinner, but next day you just look sun kissed.

Is there peeling?

In about three, four days, there will be some peeling. So, yeah, so that can happen. Which is really fun because you literally. Because when I'm in the shower, I love, you know, just kind of helping it come off. And then sometimes you see, you know, pigments, you know, the darker pigments falling off. Yeah. And then you have this new baby skin. So that is a lot of fun.

So this is your favorite laser.

So far, I've looked at all these other machines, and I've had a podcast. I, you know, talk with a. I talk with an expert comparing this to different machines out there.

Yeah.

Like Morpheus, which people know most. But that's quite an. That's, you know, has a lot more potential for damages. It's very, very painful. Yeah. And if you have a little bit of darker skin that could be actually causing hyperpigmentation.

Yeah.

So causing more problems. Yeah. So I just. I think it's, you know, this machine is leaps and bounds ahead of what other energy machines out there. You know, the Morpheus uses radio frequency, but there's some other different types of machines using energy. It said this machine not only is great for face, which I'm excited about, but also for people to help reduce fat in all kinds of areas. Right. The bat arms. Yeah. You know, like we're Double chin. Right.

Yeah.

Or, you know, so wherever spot problem area that you want to handle or, you know, people can also do, you know, other major. Yeah. Major problem areas. So this machine is unique because not only it can kill the fat cells and let the fat leak out, and a lot of Other machines, like you heard about cold sculpting, you know, people can reduce the fat, but the problem is that if you just get rid of the fat and you don't take care of the skin on the surface, then you just get loose skin. Now you have to deal with that. You do. But this machine actually does, too. In the same procedure, we can kill the fat and tighten the skin at the same time.

Oh, my gosh.

I love this. Yeah. Amazing. And then so it seems very safe.

Too, because I know a lot of people with lasers, they're worried because it can do more damage or you go to the wrong person who could do more damage and cause pigmentation, cause inflammation.

Yeah.

So it sounds like this is also very safe.

So this machine actually is the gold standard esthetic laser machine in Asia and South America. So these are the hotspots of esthetics. The South Koreans are way ahead of us when it comes to. That's what they prefer. One reason is because the machine is so great for all skin types. Right. So if you have darker skin, that's not a problem, because it's more specific. It doesn't damage other layers you're not trying to target. Yeah. Something like Morpheus is a lot less specific. So you're damaging a whole bunch of stuff that you didn't really intend to. That's painful. Yeah. And so. And what other things? I love that the machine does hair restoration, so.

Really?

Yeah. And it's not very painful. It's elegant procedure. I used to inject stem cells into people's scalp, and it's very painful. So now I just say, you know, our aesthetically amazing hero, Sydney, I said, please, you do this. You know, use a laser. You know, it's less painful. The result is that just as good. So, yeah. So hair restoration. And we can also do sexual wellness. So sexual enhancement for both females and males. So we can go into the vaginal canal. A lot of women lose elasticity or just from the aging process, right? Yeah, it's drier, it's looser. So we can tighten everything up and enhance blood flow, improve collagen production, actually improve lubrication, so people actually have better sex. And same for males. For enhanced penile, it can enhance the girth and the quality of erection. And for female, also esthetically, a lot of females want, you know, their genital areas to look prettier and youthful. Right? Yeah. So as we age, they do get floppier. So the machine can actually tighten everything. And, you know, it looks like a fresher flower that's the way I look at it. You know, just younger flowers. I'm sure every mother would want this. Yeah. And also great for urinary incontinence for females.

So it's very common.

Lasers. Yeah. Very, very effective. So that's another, you know, beautiful application. And then also it's great for snoring. And that's a huge problem. Really. So many people. Yeah. Because the laser machine can go inside your mouth and tighten all the structures in the airway. So all of a sudden, you can see in the pictures before and after the huge difference opening up the airway. And it's as effective as CPAP machine. Although, you know, people using CPAP machine, most people don't like it.

Yeah.

Because they feel like an alien, you know, going to sleep with that machine. The machine forces air into your mouth is uncomfortable. And also people can get damages.

Yeah.

In the airway from. From the force mirror. So it's beautiful. It can do so many things, so much.

Can you add stem cells or, you know, you can also do some peptides. Can you add that with the laser?

Yeah.

I'm all about holistic, you know, combination of treatments. So a lot of times people come to my clinic for stem cell treatment, but they also want to look beautiful. Right. So we may just do the laser first, and then we do the stem cell infusion where we can even. Where we've done it, you know, even at the same time. Because the stem cells I'm giving people are attracted to the area of injury. So when you do laser treatments, you're creating a tiny bit of injury, and that will attract more cells into the area. So the cells will, you know, even work harder.

Yeah.

And whatever they're trying to do to. To bring more youthfulness. Right. For regeneration. Yeah. So we do that, you know, fairly commonly. Okay.

So the 4D is the fun Fontana.

The machine is called Fotona.

Okay.

Yeah, Fotona.

Okay.

And it does many things, has many applicators. So we can treat different areas and do different things. We can even do laser hair removal. Yeah. Lip plumping, you know, air, you know.

Oh, I did see that. Where you could also plump the lips naturally.

That's right. Those colors, you know, just. It plumps and it can give you more, you know, better shape. Yeah. And how long does that last? I think it's for months. Okay. Do you remember people can do maybe a few treatments to get to the desired results, and then they can do maybe a booster maybe six to nine months later.

Okay.

Yeah.

And then how. How often do you recommend this laser?

I. Because I love it.

How often do you do it?

I do it once a month, and I know certain celebrities also do it on a monthly basis because once you do it and you. You see the results, and people will comment. Yeah, they just know that your skin look amazing, you look useful. Yeah. But you don't look strange. Right. So. So you will. You will hear that from people.

Yeah, it's very positive.

And reinforcement. Right. You want to keep up because the aging process is ongoing, so the maintenance process needs to be ongoing. Just like when someone's saying that you don't exercise, you know, you do all the exercise, and then you get your body to a great place, and then you just stop exercising.

It's not like it's a continuous consistency.

That's right.

See?

Yeah.

Oh, my gosh.

I love this so much. Ye. So this machine is just so much fun because I'm able to. Not only getting people to be younger and more, you know, with more energy and just feeling useful overall through stem cells and peptides, but now I can do something for their aesthetics, you know, how they feel about themselves.

Because we want to, you know, take care of our insides, but also look beautiful on the outside.

One of my videos actually mentioned, I said, okay, it's great to be a biohacker. And I know there are a lot of very proud biohackers who say, well, my biological age is 35. When the person was like, you know, whatever, 58.

Yeah.

But then when I look at the person. Exactly. I said, well, you do look 58. Yeah. But okay, that's great. Biologically, you're 35. How about trying, you know, would you like to look 35?

There are a lot of biohackers, longevity enthusiasts that I'm like, okay, I understand your biological age, I guess, is 20 years younger, but you do not look like that. You also have to take care of your skin, outside, exercise, these things that really, you know.

Yeah.

You want to look good, be, you know, healthy on the inside and look good on the outside.

I just feel so fortunate that we live in this day and age that we have the tool, Tools to actually maintain youth.

You know, I. I just.

Yeah, I think. I mean, the fact that I'm. I've lived this long already, right? Yeah. Over five decades on Earth. But then I. I'm pretty sure that I can look as good as today 20 years from now, so. Which means I just extended my youth probably for 40 years. Yeah. I mean, how fun is that?

I know, I know we have a lot to do.

Yes. Life. Yeah. So this is the first time in history, but we have the tools, the tool to enhance you from inside and from the outside naturally. Yeah.

I love those so much. We all need this laser. This is such great information. I'm so grateful to have this conversation. Is there anything else you want to.

Tell listeners about your.

Do you want to talk about also? Do you use this?

We actually use along with the laser. So, yeah.

So our amazing skincare line. Oh, my gosh. Stem cells.

I know.

So there's everything in here.

So I developed this, you know, skincare. I mean, it's not even the line, just one product. Right. Because I believe in simplicity. I don't want to, you know, find a good. We all you need to do is to find a good cleanser, you know, good natural, you know, clean cleanser. And then you only need this one product. So you don't need a separate, you know, serum toner, you know, day cream, night cream, eye cream. You know, this is not necessary because this has everything. First of all, it's deep penetrating. So you don't need, you know, toner, you know, to open up, you know, to get things to deeper layer. There's already. There are components that help the cells or help the different elements to go deeper into the skin. And then it already has a serum, you know, that can be more potent than the stem cells and exosomes that are already contained in the product, and they're also peptides. So all those are penetrated deeply into your skin, and it's highly nourishing. Yeah, we have all these amazing peptides included. Not. Not to mention. Yeah, GHK definitely get always in there. And I play around with, you know, different peptides, but I see a new one that's really remarkable. You know, we added in, you know, of course, we only use ones that have been shown clinically to produce results. Not just someone says, this is good. Actually we have pictures to show that there's before and after, usually four weeks study that people really see an improvement in their skin. So we add those peptides. But you can't beat umbilical cord stem cells. Right? These are new stem cells from a tissue that's much younger than the baby. So we, you know, we talk about how the baby's skin is flawless, right? Just so beautiful, like porce. But these umbilical cord cells actually are from the tissue that's much younger than the babies and stem cells. So we're not getting baby stem cells. We're getting it much better. It's in between the embryonic stem cell, which is the first group of cells that started when we came into being. Right. So that's the beginning of us, those embryonic stem cells, only the first week or so, and after that they are further differentiated. They're no longer embryonic stem cells, but they are still stem cells until you get different organs about to develop into different organs and you have the end stage stem cell, which are the tissue specific stem cells. So in between are all these stem cells. And in the umbilical cord, these cells are between embryonic stem cells and the baby's stem cells. So they're very potent. So we're utilizing that in this, in this particular cream. So this has, you know, tremendous power. Of course, you know, we've seen in our clinic the healing power of umbilical cord cells.

Yeah.

And it's, you know, the reason I'm using is because there's so much research from all around the world of how these cells are actually very healing. Yeah, very healing. So, yeah, so that's that, that's about the cream.

So you have the lasers, the creams and everything.

Yeah, exactly, yeah. So when people, after the procedure, we want them to use this cream because this is very healing. And when you just created a little bit of damage, your pores are actually more open and thus the product will go very fragile. So this is very nourishing. Yeah, yeah.

Oh, my gosh. Well, this is great.

Yes, yes, thank you. Thank you for your interest and for.

You know, helping being here at Knowledge Gorgeous Wellness Clinic. Your longevity clinic.

Yes.

Yeah. Live long and live well. That's how we want to contribute to the world. Yes.

I love it.

Thank you so much.

Thank you, Jenny.
