00:00Those who do good fillers don't even realize that they've done a filler.
00:04Because they do it so well.
00:05These are your role models and they look like this.
00:08And you know that they've done a filler.
00:10So in your mind, you'll only think,
00:12Oh God, it looks like someone has punched you.
00:15So for 4-5 days, there will be a slight blue, yellow, black mark.
00:20Like necrosis, ulceration, even blindness.
00:23So why did it happen?
00:24Because the injection was not given properly.
00:30Why is there so much hype around the world, around India specifically,
00:38that you shouldn't do it, you shouldn't do under-eye fillers, you shouldn't do fillers?
00:42I think...
00:42I mean, it's seen from a different perspective.
00:44Yes.
00:44So there are 2-3 things in it.
00:47One, people think that some foreign thing is going inside the body,
00:50so maybe it could be cancer.
00:51But there is nothing like that.
00:53Research has said that such cancer vancers don't exist.
00:57The other thing is, the people who see it,
01:00you see, there are a lot of such botched up cases.
01:02Hmm.
01:03Okay?
01:04Someone is looking very artificial.
01:06So when these are your role models, and they look like this,
01:12and you know that they've done a filler,
01:15so in your mind, you'll only think, Oh God.
01:17And the good fillers don't even realize that they've done a filler.
01:21Because they do it so well.
01:23The filler stays on the chin for 2-3 years.
01:26Hmm.
01:27Easily.
01:28On the chin, on the nose, these are immobile areas.
01:30Hmm.
01:31It stays for 2-3 years, if you have done hyaluronic acid filler.
01:34People do hyaluronic only,
01:35because if you don't like it, you can dissolve it.
01:38Okay.
01:38Yeah.
01:39And you have to do it again and again?
01:40You have to do this.
01:41Every year, every 1.5 years?
01:42Every...
01:43If there is a chin, I say, once in 2-3 years.
01:47Nose also, once in 2-3 years.
01:49Under eye, once in 1.5 years, once in 1-1.5 years.
01:52Lips go away quickly, because there is a lot of movement, etc.
01:57Once in 8-10 months.
01:58In the beginning, once in 6 months.
02:00Gradually, even your interval,
02:03which you are getting done today after a year,
02:05your second filler, get it done after 1.5 years.
02:08Because it will have an effect.
02:10Why?
02:10Because a new collagen has been formed.
02:12Hmm.
02:12So, your doctor and you should understand this.
02:16This is not a math, that you keep getting it done every year.
02:19Are there side effects of all this?
02:20If you go to the right injector,
02:23the chances are that most of the time, you will get a bruise.
02:27It will look like someone has punched you.
02:29So, for 4-5 days, there will be a slight blue, yellow, black mark there.
02:34But that's all there will be.
02:36After that, nothing happens in the body?
02:37Nothing happens in the body.
02:38The complication of under eye filler,
02:41it is up to that point,
02:43that swelling has occurred on the face,
02:45swelling has occurred on the under eye.
02:46Why has it happened?
02:47Because you have put in the wrong filler.
02:49You have put in a lot.
02:51Every 3-4 months, you are putting in the filler.
02:54Your doctor is also putting in the filler.
02:56He is not telling you to come once a year.
02:58So, when these things accumulate,
03:01there is swelling there.
03:02And you start seeing it abnormally.
03:04Swelling and bruising are common.
03:07We don't even consider them as side effects.
03:09But the other side effects that you hear,
03:11like necrosis, ulceration, even blindness,
03:14why did it happen?
03:15Because the injection was not given properly.
03:18Because the person who has injected,
03:20he doesn't have much knowledge.
03:22The eyes will be affected only when
03:23the blood vessel that is going inside,
03:25the blood that is reaching the eyes,
03:26the oxygen that is reaching the eyes,
03:27if there is any pressure on it,
03:29then the eyes can get affected.
03:31And this has happened.
03:32These days, there are a lot of quacks.
03:33Those who are not even doctors,
03:34but they are injecting.
03:35These days, they are injecting in salons too.
03:37I mean, a lot of cheap fillers have also come to the market.
03:40So, what is it?
03:40I don't know anything.
03:41You are injecting.
03:43Someone learned it by watching it on YouTube
03:44and is injecting.
03:45But even after knowledge,
03:46at the end of the day,
03:48the doctor is a human.
03:49Yes.
03:50You are a human.
03:51There is a chance of human error.
03:52If I accidentally get it somewhere,
03:54Absolutely.
03:54So, I went to get the filler done.
03:56Yes.
03:56And there I got the wrong injection
03:58from human error.
03:59Yes.
04:00And the eye went blind.
04:01No.
04:01Because we know the anatomy,
04:06we also know how to reverse that complication.
04:08So, there is an injection called hyaluronidase.
04:11If you put it in the filler,
04:13in the hyaluronic acid filler,
04:15within 24 hours,
04:16it melts completely.
04:19It goes away.
