Is 50 Really the New 30?: How Modern Aesthetic Medicine Has Given Us A Decade of Delay in Facial Aging
How Modern Aesthetic Medicine Has Given Us A Decade of Delay in Facial Aging
Phrases like “50 is the new 30” are popular these days but is there basis in fact? Dr. Bass discusses how lifestyle changes in the past few decades and the ascendance of non-surgical techniques in plastic surgery –often termed aesthetic medicine –have transformed how we look at a given age. These changes have also transformed our expectations of how long we will be able to stay looking young. Botox, injectable fillers like Restylane and Juvederm, energy based devices like lasers and advances in skin care (cosmeceutical and pharmaceutical skin products) comprise the bulk of what’s been happening in aesthetic medicine. Dr. Bass discusses the role of each, what age is a good time to start and what a combined program of care can produce.

00:00:04,710 --> 00:00:08,290
the podcast where we explore controversies
and breaking issues in plastic
3
00:00:08,291 --> 00:00:09,124
surgery.
4
00:00:09,390 --> 00:00:13,370
I'm your co-host Doreen Wu and I'm
excited to be here with Dr. Lawrence Bass

6
00:00:17,950 --> 00:00:21,840
The title of today's episode
is, "Is 50. Really the New 30?
7
00:00:22,340 --> 00:00:25,960
How Modern Aesthetic Medicine Has Given
Us a Decade of Delay in Facial Aging."
8
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:31,080
Today's episode. Title
is really interesting.
9
00:00:31,470 --> 00:00:36,240
It's especially relevant because phrases
like 50 is the new 30 and 40 is the new
10
00:00:36,241 --> 00:00:39,790
20 are becoming more and more
commonplace. So, Dr. Bass,
11
00:00:40,020 --> 00:00:41,750
what does the title of the episode mean?
12
00:00:42,970 --> 00:00:43,330
Well,
13
00:00:43,330 --> 00:00:48,100
it's really about how our
appearance or what people typically
14
00:00:48,290 --> 00:00:52,300
look like at a given age has
really completely transformed
15
00:00:53,070 --> 00:00:56,300
since we were younger. Life is better.
16
00:00:56,750 --> 00:01:00,570
We're traveling through life, better,
healthier, we're living longer.
17
00:01:01,150 --> 00:01:03,850
And as a consequence
of that better health,
18
00:01:04,070 --> 00:01:07,970
we look better and it's
not just our health,
19
00:01:08,070 --> 00:01:12,210
but it's also the things we're doing to
preserve and maintain our appearance.
20
00:01:12,950 --> 00:01:17,040
So how, how we look at 50? What,
21
00:01:17,310 --> 00:01:21,920
what the mental image of that
is for most people is what
22
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,720
somebody who was in their
thirties used to look like
23
00:01:28,060 --> 00:01:31,720
in our parents' generation. We,
24
00:01:31,721 --> 00:01:34,870
it's also a change in
what our expectations are.
25
00:01:35,090 --> 00:01:38,510
And if you go younger
and younger and younger,
26
00:01:38,770 --> 00:01:40,990
you see that change in expectation,
27
00:01:41,350 --> 00:01:46,030
millennials and people younger
than millennials are already
28
00:01:46,470 --> 00:01:51,420
planning that they're going
to do things to not accelerate
29
00:01:51,421 --> 00:01:52,580
their aging appearance.
30
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:58,050
They're going to do things to prevent
and preserve their appearance in
31
00:01:58,051 --> 00:02:02,970
ways the past generations just didn't
get involved in partly they didn't
32
00:02:02,971 --> 00:02:05,970
get involved because life was
different. There was less affluent,
33
00:02:06,470 --> 00:02:10,010
partly because a lot of the technologies
and treatments didn't exist.
34
00:02:10,011 --> 00:02:14,960
But it's a complete transformation
in what we're doing at
35
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,000
a given age and how
we're expected to look.
36
00:02:19,310 --> 00:02:20,143
Exactly.
37
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:24,400
I think as the world's population is
getting older and we're living longer,
38
00:02:24,790 --> 00:02:28,720
more and more people are looking for
ways to combat the signs of aging and
39
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:33,070
maintain their useful appearance by
kind of having this beauty maintenance
40
00:02:33,071 --> 00:02:37,110
routine and establishing that early
on. Why has this shift occurred?
41
00:02:37,340 --> 00:02:38,390
What has really changed?
42
00:02:40,030 --> 00:02:43,280
Well, it's really the ascendance
of nonsurgical options.
43
00:02:43,420 --> 00:02:47,720
The ability to make really
substantial changes in appearance
44
00:02:48,390 --> 00:02:52,750
without doing aesthetic surgery.
And I'm a plastic surgeon.
45
00:02:53,070 --> 00:02:55,550
I like aesthetic surgery.
It's my industry.
46
00:02:55,730 --> 00:02:58,670
And I think it can really do
tremendous things for people,
47
00:02:59,700 --> 00:03:04,560
but it's not the right
maneuver for many stages of
48
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,760
aging, particularly early stages of aging.
49
00:03:08,260 --> 00:03:12,640
And we really didn't have a good
option for people early in the game,
50
00:03:12,641 --> 00:03:15,000
people in their twenties,
people in their thirties,
51
00:03:16,820 --> 00:03:19,630
we needed those options.
52
00:03:20,210 --> 00:03:24,640
And there has been huge
output from American
53
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:29,640
industry and around the world to create
meaningful non-surgical treatments
54
00:03:30,590 --> 00:03:31,600
that help us.
55
00:03:32,460 --> 00:03:35,960
And so that's not just protection,
56
00:03:35,961 --> 00:03:40,230
but prevention and maintenance,
along with restoration.
57
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:42,870
Let's start with lifestyle changes.
58
00:03:42,871 --> 00:03:47,790
First people in this generation are living
drastically different lives than say
59
00:03:47,791 --> 00:03:49,350
their parents and their grandparents.
60
00:03:49,820 --> 00:03:52,230
What are some of the ways
our lifestyle has evolved?
61
00:03:53,190 --> 00:03:57,880
The two biggest factors in
skin aging are sun and smoking.
62
00:03:59,260 --> 00:04:04,000
So obviously there are some big changes
in lifestyle compared to our parents and
63
00:04:04,001 --> 00:04:07,450
grandparents, many fewer people smoke.
64
00:04:08,670 --> 00:04:13,050
And we clearly recognize
the impact of sun on
65
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,560
skin aging, wrinkling,
all kinds of skin changes,
66
00:04:17,630 --> 00:04:21,600
pigment changes, and also
skin cancer, of course.
67
00:04:22,540 --> 00:04:26,360
So we don't always stay out of the
sun, but at least we're aware of it.
68
00:04:26,380 --> 00:04:29,200
And we have sunscreen that
we can use to help protect.
69
00:04:30,110 --> 00:04:34,590
There's also much better fitness
and much better understanding of the
70
00:04:34,591 --> 00:04:39,270
importance of participating in fitness
activities compared to previous
71
00:04:39,420 --> 00:04:44,310
generations. And our diet has
improved. We eat less fat, less salt,
72
00:04:44,340 --> 00:04:47,310
less carbs, and we understand the impact.
73
00:04:47,311 --> 00:04:51,900
These things have on health and not
just health, but also appearance.
74
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,650
It's good to know that we're taking
steps in the right direction.
75
00:04:56,020 --> 00:04:59,370
We're adopting healthier habits
and living healthier lifestyles.
76
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,530
What has happened in plastic
surgery and aesthetic medicine?
77
00:05:03,290 --> 00:05:07,870
So there are several categories of things
that have really made a big impact.
78
00:05:08,170 --> 00:05:12,380
And again, are in that category
of nonsurgical options.
79
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:18,020
One is the durable or modern fillers
that started to come on the market about
80
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,740
2003 and 2004.
81
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:27,210
Another is Botox and other
neuromodulators Jeuveau,
82
00:05:27,860 --> 00:05:28,693
Dysport, Xeomin, that
83
00:05:30,610 --> 00:05:35,160
helps smooth out wrinkles and keep
us from ironing in these wrinkle
84
00:05:35,470 --> 00:05:36,720
changes over decades.
85
00:05:37,930 --> 00:05:42,780
There are energy devices
that are used to tighten the
86
00:05:42,810 --> 00:05:44,980
skin to support skin health,
87
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,810
to clear out pigmentary
lesions and redness and
88
00:05:50,820 --> 00:05:51,890
their skincare.
89
00:05:51,890 --> 00:05:56,290
Okay. Let's take them one at
a time, starting with Botox.
90
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,180
So, as I said, the idea
is not to iron in changes.
91
00:06:00,181 --> 00:06:05,060
There there's a lot of
lines on the face that are
92
00:06:05,061 --> 00:06:08,500
dynamic in nature that
are promoted by muscular
93
00:06:09,710 --> 00:06:12,080
tension, even resting tension.
94
00:06:12,260 --> 00:06:15,910
And certainly by the muscular
pressure that we experience when
95
00:06:17,550 --> 00:06:19,630
we smile or talk or animate.
96
00:06:20,950 --> 00:06:24,440
Naturally people wonder when is the
right time to start getting Botox?
97
00:06:25,450 --> 00:06:29,110
So opinions differ about
when it's a good idea,
98
00:06:29,180 --> 00:06:30,670
there's this notion of,
99
00:06:30,671 --> 00:06:34,910
of prevention or what some
people call prejuvenation versus
100
00:06:36,530 --> 00:06:40,780
waiting until you need
to maintain the skin. But
101
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:44,940
as the skin ages,
102
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,980
we wrinkle more because
our skin is not as elastic.
103
00:06:49,280 --> 00:06:53,300
So if a 20 year old smiles and
they make a big enough smile,
104
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:58,010
they'll crinkle up the corner of their
eyes. But if they make an average smile,
105
00:06:58,011 --> 00:07:02,950
they won't because their skin is
pretty firm and springy. If you're 40,
106
00:07:03,210 --> 00:07:07,070
if you make even an average
smile, you'll wrinkle up.
107
00:07:07,071 --> 00:07:09,430
Typically some of the corner of your eyes,
108
00:07:10,060 --> 00:07:13,860
because your skin is less elastic
than it was when you were 20.
109
00:07:13,861 --> 00:07:18,020
So our need for looking our best
110
00:07:18,850 --> 00:07:21,100
with Botox goes up as we age,
111
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:26,220
but the benefit of not starting to iron
in lines when we're young is something
112
00:07:26,221 --> 00:07:27,940
that we still think is worthwhile.
113
00:07:28,620 --> 00:07:30,530
Where do fillers fit into this picture?
114
00:07:31,150 --> 00:07:31,441
Well,
115
00:07:31,441 --> 00:07:36,280
fillers are about volume restoration
and volume changes in the face.
116
00:07:36,660 --> 00:07:41,520
And the beginning of shape change
in the face is one of the earliest
117
00:07:41,590 --> 00:07:46,320
changes we see in aging. So
the fillers support shape,
118
00:07:46,870 --> 00:07:50,990
they help minimize the
appearance of early laxity.
119
00:07:51,810 --> 00:07:55,430
And every time we inject
fillers, we get some neogenesis.
120
00:07:55,530 --> 00:07:58,790
We get some rebuilding of
the collagen in the skin.
121
00:07:59,530 --> 00:08:03,670
And because filler injections are
repetitive treatments over time.
122
00:08:03,671 --> 00:08:08,380
These things make the skin much better
than it. Otherwise would've been,
123
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,700
had you been doing no treatment at all?
124
00:08:11,870 --> 00:08:14,130
Now let's talk a little
bit more about skincare.
125
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,370
What are the big things
happening in that realm?
126
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,200
Skincare is, is a huge category.
127
00:08:20,500 --> 00:08:24,680
And there are literally thousands
of skin products out there
128
00:08:25,420 --> 00:08:29,910
and other kinds of skin
treatments, not products per se,
129
00:08:30,380 --> 00:08:34,270
that are being done. So
it's really, really big.
130
00:08:34,410 --> 00:08:38,790
But the basic idea is that some
131
00:08:39,380 --> 00:08:44,310
skin products on the face and some
attempts to care for your skin beyond
132
00:08:44,311 --> 00:08:48,700
just washing your face is an
important thing to be doing.
133
00:08:49,290 --> 00:08:54,180
There's a huge buzz right now around
clean skin care, retinols, vitamin A,
134
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,760
all of that type of stuff. What are
the main categories of materials?
135
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:03,720
There are several categories that many
of the medicated skin products fall into.
136
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,640
So the basic idea here is
that a good skin product.
137
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:12,560
That's a sort of a cosmetic product or
an over the counter product you might get
138
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:13,593
at the store.
139
00:09:15,750 --> 00:09:19,430
They'll typically improve the appearance
of the skin and they'll protect the
140
00:09:19,790 --> 00:09:23,670
skin. You know, the skin needs
an Alion protective layer.
141
00:09:24,030 --> 00:09:28,230
We don't want the skin to be
stripped raw because it's,
142
00:09:28,590 --> 00:09:29,670
it's exposed that way.
143
00:09:30,150 --> 00:09:34,540
So a little bit of protection from
a good skin product is a good thing,
144
00:09:35,820 --> 00:09:37,500
but the doctor's office products,
145
00:09:38,300 --> 00:09:41,380
prescription products will
typically have medications in,
146
00:09:41,980 --> 00:09:46,420
in them that modify the biology
of the skin in some way that is
147
00:09:47,060 --> 00:09:51,130
favorable or helps restore
youthful behavior in the skin.
148
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:56,600
So the big categories are things
like Elafin, beta hydroxy acids.
149
00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:01,240
These are things like glycolic
acid, lactic acid, pyruvic acid,
150
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:06,560
that's one big category of products.
And those are very affordable products.
151
00:10:06,561 --> 00:10:11,390
Typically they exfoliate
and they stimulate some skin
152
00:10:11,750 --> 00:10:15,510
turnover at a higher rate, which
again is more like youthful skin.
153
00:10:15,511 --> 00:10:19,350
There are retinoids. These
are vitamin A analogs.
154
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,590
These do the same kind of
things they're exfoliating,
155
00:10:23,690 --> 00:10:28,380
but they significantly
stimulate new collagen and help
156
00:10:28,381 --> 00:10:33,300
improve organization of collagen. And
maybe even some impact on elastin.
157
00:10:34,810 --> 00:10:39,500
Another category nowadays are
products that have significant amounts
158
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:44,380
of growth factors of one
sort or another growth
159
00:10:44,381 --> 00:10:47,610
factors that stimulate
blood supply in the skin,
160
00:10:47,611 --> 00:10:51,370
or that stimulate collagen production.
They're all manner of products,
161
00:10:51,950 --> 00:10:56,650
but these are things that
try to stimulate the skin to
162
00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:01,210
turn on things that are
slowing down or working less
163
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,010
efficiently as the skin ages.
164
00:11:05,060 --> 00:11:09,880
There are other products that have
botanicals that have similar kinds of
165
00:11:10,270 --> 00:11:12,560
bioactivity. Uh,
166
00:11:12,860 --> 00:11:17,280
and there's a huge host of products with
167
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,200
variable levels of
impact to chase pigment,
168
00:11:21,220 --> 00:11:25,600
to chase skin quality and texture. Uh,
169
00:11:25,940 --> 00:11:26,773
but overall,
170
00:11:28,330 --> 00:11:33,030
an important start even when we're young
are things that are protective so that
171
00:11:33,031 --> 00:11:37,310
the skin is adequately moisturized
and has that protective Amalian layer.
172
00:11:38,370 --> 00:11:41,910
And finally, the, the other
big thing is sunscreen. I mean,
173
00:11:42,350 --> 00:11:44,500
sunscreen is critically important.
174
00:11:44,630 --> 00:11:49,340
We're always getting exposed to
ultraviolet indoors and outdoors
175
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:54,040
and some level of protection
from that, which is, again,
176
00:11:54,140 --> 00:11:57,920
one of those two big
preventable factors in skin.
177
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,840
Aging is critical. If you want
to maintain your appearance.
178
00:12:03,140 --> 00:12:06,720
Lastly, we have energy based
devices. What do they do?
179
00:12:06,860 --> 00:12:08,160
And how do I pick the right one?
180
00:12:09,260 --> 00:12:13,950
So again, this is another huge
subject onto itself where there are
181
00:12:14,890 --> 00:12:17,940
literally hundreds of devices out there
182
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:23,710
using variations on several
different strategies for the skin.
183
00:12:24,690 --> 00:12:29,200
So there are things
like laser resurfacing,
184
00:12:29,201 --> 00:12:33,990
which is kind of the gold standard for
creating a lot of rejuvenation in the
185
00:12:34,020 --> 00:12:38,030
skin, addressing wrinkles,
pigment, texture, many,
186
00:12:38,031 --> 00:12:39,390
many things in the skin,
187
00:12:40,530 --> 00:12:45,510
but that's something that's most
appropriate during the restoration
188
00:12:45,511 --> 00:12:48,430
phase. If you're in that stage of aging,
189
00:12:48,431 --> 00:12:52,820
there are a whole spectrum of
devices that are more focused on
190
00:12:52,990 --> 00:12:56,820
prevention and earlier restoration.
191
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,740
So there are many sizes to fit all needs,
192
00:13:00,741 --> 00:13:04,540
whether you need a little improvement
or more moderate improvement,
193
00:13:04,541 --> 00:13:09,410
you really can't say, okay,
194
00:13:09,430 --> 00:13:13,850
here's the device that's
right. Or the best or great,
195
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:18,210
because they're all trade offs in
terms of how many treatments you need,
196
00:13:18,230 --> 00:13:20,250
how much improvement you're likely to get,
197
00:13:20,270 --> 00:13:24,490
how good a fitted is for your type
of skin and your stage of aging.
198
00:13:25,610 --> 00:13:28,920
The important thing to remember is
it's always going to be about steps,
199
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,720
maintenance and prevention is a process.
200
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,560
It's not an event, so it's not
gonna be something you do once.
201
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,080
This is an American sentiment.
We want to do one treatment,
202
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,840
look drastically better,
or be protected forever.
203
00:13:46,670 --> 00:13:48,430
And it just doesn't work that way. And it,
204
00:13:48,630 --> 00:13:50,270
and it's very much like dental cleaning.
205
00:13:50,910 --> 00:13:53,550
You could have the best
cleaning from your hygienist,
206
00:13:53,790 --> 00:13:55,550
but if you're not brushing
your teeth at home,
207
00:13:55,990 --> 00:13:58,990
your teeth are going to be
in trouble fast. Likewise,
208
00:13:59,350 --> 00:14:01,430
you could be brushing your
teeth really well at home,
209
00:14:01,830 --> 00:14:06,340
but if the hygienist doesn't
occasionally come in and clean off any
210
00:14:06,940 --> 00:14:08,820
buildup that you're not
able to get at home,
211
00:14:09,980 --> 00:14:11,260
you're eventually going to get in trouble.
212
00:14:12,510 --> 00:14:13,343
That makes sense.
213
00:14:13,560 --> 00:14:17,320
I know we all wish there was this magic
wand that we could wave and somehow
214
00:14:17,350 --> 00:14:22,000
magically turn into our 20 year old
self. But for now that doesn't exist.
215
00:14:22,420 --> 00:14:24,590
So overall Dr. Bass,
216
00:14:24,620 --> 00:14:28,390
what should we remember to stay looking
our best and make 50, the new 30?
217
00:14:29,210 --> 00:14:34,190
So like every other aspect of our
health care and maintenance has to start
218
00:14:34,220 --> 00:14:36,990
when we're young. And that makes
a huge difference. You know,
219
00:14:36,991 --> 00:14:40,030
you can't wait till you're sick to
start taking care of your health.
220
00:14:40,031 --> 00:14:44,830
You need to be doing sensible things when
221
00:14:44,831 --> 00:14:47,310
you're young. So start early.
222
00:14:48,490 --> 00:14:50,710
Do as much as you comfortably can do.
223
00:14:50,950 --> 00:14:54,280
Most of us don't want to play
with our skin three hours a day,
224
00:14:55,140 --> 00:14:58,360
but even some skin care
is better than none.
225
00:14:58,390 --> 00:15:00,640
When you accumulate that over decades,
226
00:15:00,860 --> 00:15:04,440
you're gonna be in a much better place
if you've been doing something than if
227
00:15:04,441 --> 00:15:05,400
you just let it go,
228
00:15:06,820 --> 00:15:11,350
do something that's meaningful for
where you are in the aging process. So,
229
00:15:11,370 --> 00:15:15,390
you know, if you're in your twenties,
very simple things may be meaningful,
230
00:15:15,550 --> 00:15:19,670
a little bit of a medicated
moisturized product, uh,
231
00:15:19,890 --> 00:15:24,190
and a little bit of sun avoidance or
sunscreen use. But as you get older,
232
00:15:24,290 --> 00:15:28,940
you have to pick other options
to really be having an impact
233
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,500
on anti-aging, you know, on
prevention and maintenance.
234
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:37,540
So this starts with, with
skincare in small ways,
235
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,100
but increasingly it becomes medical.
236
00:15:40,101 --> 00:15:43,340
It needs to be managed in
partnership with a professional.
237
00:15:44,430 --> 00:15:49,290
Eventually you get to a stage of aging
where surgical treatments are going to be
238
00:15:49,291 --> 00:15:50,410
needed to look your best.
239
00:15:51,070 --> 00:15:55,770
But these occur later in age and much
later than they used to with good
240
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,290
skin health and prevention activities.
241
00:15:59,540 --> 00:16:01,930
Thank you for sharing your
insights with us. Dr. Bass,
242
00:16:02,410 --> 00:16:06,600
I learned a lot about how modern aesthetic
medicine has provided us with a huge
243
00:16:06,601 --> 00:16:09,880
repertoire of tools and
techniques to delay aging.
244
00:16:10,380 --> 00:16:13,560
