00:00 Let's talk about skin aging because when our skin age increases,
00:05 we can't avoid our skin from getting damaged.
00:09 You're right.
00:10 So to help us reduce wrinkles and saggy facial skin,
00:16 we have here with us today, Dr. Drola M. Sanchez,
00:20 a fellow at the Philippine Academy of Aesthetics and Age Management,
00:24 Medicine Incorporated.
00:25 Good morning, Dr. Lala.
00:29 Good morning, Chi and Diane and to our RSPs.
00:33 This is Doc, who doesn't age.
00:35 Yes, that's true. She's my idol.
00:37 Even if she ages, her skin won't get saggy.
00:40 Doc, what are the main reasons why we get saggy skin and wrinkles on our face
00:47 when we get older?
00:50 Wrinkles are a product of the aging process.
00:54 As we age, our skin's collagen levels drop,
01:01 especially in the middle part of our skin, the dermis.
01:05 So when we get wrinkles,
01:08 we produce less oil and our skin can't absorb proper moisture.
01:15 That's why we get wrinkles.
01:17 Okay, Doc, let's talk about this.
01:19 There are surgical and non-surgical treatments for removing saggy skin and wrinkles.
01:25 Let's start with surgical procedures.
01:27 What are these?
01:28 The most common thing we do is the facelift,
01:34 where we reduce the skin along with the other fat in our skin.
01:40 So we get our doctors to tighten it,
01:42 along with the muscular and connective tissue,
01:45 which also includes the neck.
01:47 So when we get a facelift,
01:50 we reduce wrinkles and our skin tightens.
01:53 Okay, and for non-surgical procedures,
01:57 Doc Lala, are the creams and supplements that are used in the face included?
02:05 Yes, so for non-surgical procedures,
02:09 we usually use the skin resurfacing technique,
02:12 which includes microdermabrasion, chemical peels,
02:17 Botox, which is a botulinum toxin that relaxes the muscles,
02:21 and fillers.
02:24 And the best thing is PDLLA,
02:28 which is a skin-producing collagen.
02:33 So when it comes to wrinkles,
02:36 as we age, the moisture in our skin is reduced.
02:41 So there are anti-wrinkle creams with retinoids,
02:45 which are helpful.
02:46 Over-the-counter skincare products
02:49 that provide moisture, like with hyaluronic acid.
02:53 So in oral supplementation,
02:56 there is also hydrolyzed collagen, which is the trend now,
03:00 which helps with collagen addition.
03:03 It's also good to take vitamin A and vitamin E.
03:07 But Doc, I'd like to ask about the collagen you mentioned,
03:10 because some people need to take 6 capsules in a day,
03:15 while others need to take a drink.
03:17 But if you compare the capsules you take,
03:20 you can take 500 to 1,000 milligrams in all,
03:23 but if you take a drink,
03:26 sometimes it's 60,000 milligrams.
03:28 How is that, Doc?
03:30 What collagen should we take in a day?
03:33 So I always say that it's better to take hydrolyzed collagen.
03:40 It's the one that's already in a peptide form.
03:44 It's easier for our body to absorb it.
03:47 And it really goes to where it should go,
03:51 because our body has many different collagen parts.
03:55 So we can't just take collagen,
03:59 because it can damage our kidneys,
04:02 because collagen is a kind of protein.
04:05 Oh, I see.
04:08 And this is when an individual gets older,
04:12 we can't avoid saggy facial skin,
04:16 and wrinkles that become very visible.
04:22 What can an individual do
04:27 to prevent that from happening?
04:31 Is there a way to delay aging in a natural way?
04:36 Yes, there is.
04:37 So to delay aging in a natural way,
04:40 stay hydrated.
04:42 Drink six to eight glasses of water a day.
04:44 If you're a smoker, you should stop smoking,
04:47 because it can cause early signs of aging,
04:51 like wrinkles.
04:53 If you drink a lot of alcohol,
04:56 like alcohol and wine,
04:57 it can cause wrinkles.
05:00 And what's important is,
05:03 before you go out,
05:04 you wear a sunscreen.
05:05 Even inside the house,
05:07 at least wear SPF 30.
05:09 Wow, even inside the house, Dian?
05:12 Even inside the house,
05:13 you should wear sunblock.
05:16 Yes, because we need to protect our house
05:19 from UVA and UVB rays.
05:21 So not just direct sunlight,
05:23 like the lights in our house,
05:25 it can cause wrinkles.
05:27 Especially here in the studio,
05:29 we have a lot of lights.
05:31 It would be nice to have sunblock.
05:35 Okay, Doc, this is your last message.
05:37 A reminder to our viewers
05:40 about skin aging.
05:43 To avoid early signs of aging,
05:46 the number one rule is to stay hydrated.
05:49 You should sleep well
05:51 because sleep is very important.
05:53 You should eat good protein
05:57 that doesn't damage your kidneys.
05:59 It's a balanced diet.
06:01 And wear your sunscreen.
06:03 That's the number one rule
06:04 for anti-aging.
06:05 Always wear your sunscreen.
06:08 Those are some great advice
06:10 from a great doctor.
06:12 Thank you so much for the free telemedicine
