A brief excerpt from a YouTube video by Robert Whitfield MD (Dec 2, 2024) where the speaker shares a personal anecdote about trying lip filler once, experiencing swelling and discomfort, and expressing concern about young people beginning cosmetic procedures. The speaker then suggests discussing fat transfer and references broader discussions of breast implants and explants.
I mean, these are all the things that we put in our body. And, you know, I mean, in full disclosure, I tried filler one time. My lips, very small amount. And I hated it. Like, it, like, woke up in the morning and I felt like I had. They were swollen. And I'm like, pretty sure my body's telling me that this is not supposed to be there. So, you know, I just think about how young people are starting with this. So, you know what? Maybe we start with fat transfer. Just on the heels of sort of talking about so much of the breast implants and explants.
