00:00It's never too late to start your fitness journey, Chef, with Pinoy M.D.
00:13Happy and healthy Saturday morning!
00:15I'm your host, Connie Sison.
00:18And later, we'll be joined by our health and wellness expert,
00:22none other than Doc Oye Balburias,
00:25who will answer your questions on our Facebook page.
00:29Stay tuned for Pinoy M.D.'s return,
00:32because as long as it's about health, this is Legit!
00:39This morning on Pinoy M.D.,
00:41what if your nail care product got damaged?
00:46Is it safe to use nail extensions?
00:49We should remove the whole nail, including the original nail,
00:53because it's already damaged,
00:55and it won't grow properly if we don't remove the original nail.
01:00Before we decide if we want to get artificial nail extensions,
01:05we need to take into consideration that we need to file the nail,
01:12we need to shave it, so it'll be crumbly.
01:14Tummy tuck or abdominal lusty.
01:17Some people do this to get rid of loose skin.
01:20Is it safe and effective?
01:23The first week after the surgery, it was really hard to stand up.
01:29I couldn't lie down straight, I couldn't walk straight,
01:33and it was painful to go to the bathroom.
01:37And Cantadia stars will reveal their beauty and fitness secrets.
01:42I ate sweet potatoes.
01:44The result was good because I felt like I lost weight quickly.
01:48And information for your health that you should know.
01:53Stay tuned!
01:55Out and Proud.
01:57Many can't hide their happiness because of their weight loss.
02:04But some, even if they've lost weight, there are still things they're hiding.
02:09Like an apron.
02:10Maybe after 8 months of working out with my coach,
02:14it really went down.
02:16Like the boobs area, and then the tummy area, the stomach area,
02:20it really got a flap.
02:22Instant goodbye to excess skin.
02:24You know what that is, right?
02:26Stay tuned!
02:30Our hearts waited 11 years before they could enter the world of Encantadia.
02:36This is the requel or retelling sequel of the fantasy series that first became popular in 2005.
02:42But now, the production has leveled up.
02:45The effects and costume design are more exciting.
02:51Of course, the characters are different.
02:54Let's fight, okay?
02:555, 4, 3, 2...
03:01And this morning,
03:02two of the bloodthirsty people will be joining us behind the scenes
03:06to give tips on how to achieve the beauty of Maladiosa.
03:12For those who don't know,
03:15I also do makeup.
03:16I've been doing makeup for a long time.
03:19Makeup is my passion.
03:21You can see my makeup in Encantadia.
03:24I'm the only one doing it.
03:27I just love it.
03:33Different looks.
03:37Length.
03:40And color.
03:42Whatever design you want,
03:45nailed it!
03:47The beauty of this is that you can easily break it.
03:51So, be careful and take care of it.
03:55But what if by mistake,
03:58it gets damaged?
04:00What if your nail extension
04:03becomes infected?
04:06We should remove the whole nail, including my original nail
04:10because it's already damaged
04:12and it won't grow properly
04:14if we don't remove the original nail.
04:22Out and proud!
04:24Many people can't hide their happiness because of their weight loss.
04:31But some, even if they've lost weight,
04:33they still have something to hide.
04:36It's like an apron.
04:37Maybe after 8 months of working out with my coach,
04:41the area around the boobs, tummy, and stomach really got flatter.
04:49Instant goodbye to excess skin.
04:52That's it, Ian!
04:55Meanwhile, here's our internist and health and wellness expert,
04:59Doc Oyi,
05:00to answer some of the questions you sent to our Facebook page.
05:06Good morning to you, Doc Oyi!
05:08Good morning, Connie,
05:09and good morning to our hearts that are beating this morning.
05:12First question for you, Doc Oyi.
05:14What is the reason for the illness of the nail,
05:17which is accompanied by soft dirt?
05:20That question is from Ana Oteyuk.
05:23Ana, I have a lot of allergies,
05:25and it depends on how long it's been.
05:29If it's been a long time,
05:31especially the soft dirt,
05:33it's a side effect of those who eat breakfast.
05:36But if your symptoms are long-lasting,
05:39it will qualify for what we call Irritable Bowel Syndrome.
05:45There are a lot of symptoms,
05:46but symptoms like these, Ana,
05:49are not ignored.
05:50First of all,
05:52let's rule out the possibility of having a parasitic.
05:57The first thing you should do
05:58is to have your nails examined
06:01to find out if it has a blood clot
06:05or if a parasitic will grow.
06:07I don't know if you will do what we call stool culture.
06:11But if you really want to know right away,
06:14it's better if you consult an expert,
06:18what we call a gastroenterologist,
06:21especially if there are significant findings
06:25in your examination of your nails.
06:34Our hearts have been waiting for 11 years
06:36before being able to enter the world of Encantadia.
06:40This is the requel or retelling sequel
06:42of the fantasy series that first became popular in 2005.
06:46But now, the production has leveled up.
06:49The effects and costume design are more exciting.
06:54Of course, the characters are different.
06:59Let's fight, okay?
07:005, 4, 3, 2...
07:06And this morning,
07:07two of the blood-sucking characters
07:09will be joining us behind the scenes
07:11to give tips on how to achieve the beauty of a goddess.
07:16I shouldn't be a queen.
07:19The actress, Kylie Padilla,
07:21is playing the role of Sangre Amihan.
07:25Like Sania,
07:26her secret to being fit is healthy eating.
07:29Hello, Kapuso.
07:31We're here at the taping of Encantadia.
07:34Well, I just want to share my diet with you.
07:38For the show, you know that blood sugar can't go down.
07:42Ever since Encantadia started,
07:44I've been more on fruits and protein.
07:47I've stopped eating rice.
07:50And if I can,
07:51if I can,
07:52because sometimes there are fight scenes,
07:54I won't be able to eat after 6.
07:56So, my stomach is a bit flat.
07:58So now, as you can see,
08:00I ate fruits,
08:01then chicken,
08:03and fish.
08:04They don't serve me rice here
08:06because that's what I avoid.
08:08So yeah, that's the diet of Sangre Amihan.
08:12Aside from her fit body,
08:14you can also notice Kylie's very smooth and glowing skin.
08:18It's like she doesn't have pores.
08:20That's why she often wears makeup when there's taping.
08:25And Kylie's secret?
08:27For those who don't know,
08:31I also wear makeup.
08:32I've been wearing makeup for a long time.
08:35You can see my makeup in Encantadia.
08:38I'm the only one doing it.
08:41I just love it.
08:43I wanted to do a Korean makeup look this time.
08:46Kylie loves wearing makeup.
08:48She also uploads tutorial videos on YouTube
08:51to share with her followers.
08:54Magical feeling.
08:55I didn't apply too much blush
08:57because my lipstick is already red
08:58and my eye makeup is already thick.
09:02And if Kylie has makeup tips,
09:04she also has a secret when it comes to makeup removal.
09:08I use baby oil.
09:11I don't use expensive ones.
09:13Baby oil is okay.
09:15You just wipe it.
09:16After that,
09:17wash your face with soap.
09:19Baby oil is gentle on skin,
09:22so it won't irritate you
09:23when you use it as a makeup remover.
09:26And it's cheap!
09:27Good tip, Kylie!
09:30I don't lack in being Raina Pereira.
09:33Even though I'm the youngest,
09:35I can still lead the parade.
09:38The one playing Sangre Danaya
09:40is none other than actress Sania Lopez.
09:44Because Sangre's costume is a bit sexy,
09:47Sania should look good in it.
09:50And what she did to lose weight
09:52is the sweet potato diet.
09:54Sweet potatoes are really good
09:56but I use it as a snack.
10:00So instead of other snacks
10:03that are heavy,
10:06like burger, fries,
10:09I eat sweet potatoes.
10:11The result is good
10:13because you feel like you lose weight fast.
10:17Sweet potatoes are rich in complex carbohydrates,
10:20or the kind of carbs
10:21that the body digests for a longer period of time.
10:24That's why when we eat,
10:26we get full faster
10:28and longer
10:29before we feel hungry again.
10:32Sweet potatoes are also rich in fiber
10:34so our digestion is also good.
10:37Still, Sania's advice is
10:39that it's better to have a complete diet.
10:46But did you know
10:47that there are more than four brilliants
10:49in the world of Encantadia?
10:50Because there are five more!
10:53Wow, that's amazing!
10:55And the one holding it
10:57is not just Sangre,
10:58but the famous actor, Pau-Pau,
11:00played by the actor, Rojun Cruz.
11:04In his costume,
11:05you can really see his charisma.
11:09What is Rojun's secret
11:11to achieve a good body?
11:14My character in Encantadia
11:16really shows my charms.
11:20I'm on a diet right now
11:22and all I eat is wheat bread.
11:25For lunch, I eat brown rice.
11:29Brown rice and wheat bread
11:31are also rich in complex carbs
11:33so it's easy to get full
11:35compared to rice and bread.
11:38It's also rich in fiber
11:40which is good for digestion.
11:43While there's still no take
11:44for the Encantadia taping,
11:45I'm still on standby.
11:47I'll show you
11:49my basic workout
11:51and of course, when I'm on TV,
11:52my muscles get pumped.
11:54I'll show you.
11:58There are a lot of popular workouts
11:59but it seems like push-ups
12:01are still not popular.
12:05This simple workout
12:06can be done anywhere
12:08and even without equipment.
12:10It's good for the entire upper body
12:12such as chest, back, and arms.
12:15Just do three sets,
12:1610 counts per set.
12:19It's tiring.
12:23I'm poised, right?
12:24So now, I'll teach you
12:26a basic for abs.
12:27Even if I'm on taping,
12:28you just need to sit
12:30and your abs will work out.
12:33This workout is called
12:35chair crunches
12:37because it's done while sitting.
12:39The back doesn't get strained
12:41like other sit-ups.
12:43Just do three sets,
12:4510 counts per set.
12:48If you're doing abs,
12:50you should do this.
12:52This is just a basic workout.
12:53You contract your core.
12:58Exhale.
12:59Inhale.
13:01Exhale.
13:03The beauty of a bloodthirsty peg
13:05and a healthy body
13:07can be achieved
13:09not with the help of magic
13:12but with discipline and perseverance.
13:15Cheers!
13:18Back to Doc Oye
13:19for our next Facebook question.
13:20Doc, this is a question from Tata Ray.
13:22What is the condition
13:24if the eyes turn yellow,
13:26the stomach hurts,
13:27and if you have a relapse?
13:29Oh, Tata Ray.
13:31It just looks like it
13:32but I can't confirm it
13:34because I don't diagnose
13:36the disease on air.
13:38But it looks like
13:40it's important for us to rule out
13:42the possibility that
13:44these are symptoms
13:46of hepatitis.
13:50Either hepatitis A
13:52or hepatitis B.
13:53But that's not the only reason.
13:55Infection is not the only reason
13:57why a person will turn yellow
13:59and relapse.
14:01There are other reasons as well.
14:03What I can say is
14:04the condition you have now,
14:06the yellowing of your eyes,
14:07that's the first reason
14:09to consult a doctor.
14:12Even an internist like me
14:15can do a workup
14:17to confirm
14:19if your symptoms are
14:21hepatitis A or hepatitis B
14:23or if there are other reasons.
14:26What I can say is
14:28the symptoms you're experiencing
14:31are not negligible.
14:33You need to consult a doctor.
14:40When it comes to health,
14:41you should always be updated.
14:45Dental care services
14:46are now included in PhilHealth.
14:48Some rare diseases
14:50and mobility devices
14:51will also be covered by PhilHealth.
14:56And now,
14:57there's a celebration
14:58for the upcoming Christmas.
15:00Departmental Health
15:01has a reminder
15:02about our health.
15:04Here are the latest health updates
15:06that you should know about.

15:13This includes
15:14mouth examination
15:15and oral screening,
15:16dental prophylaxis
15:18or cleaning,
15:19fluoride varnish application,
15:21and pit and fissure sealant
15:23that won't go through
15:24both teeth.
15:25Consulting a dentist
15:27and removing teeth
15:28is also part of the benefit.
15:30The goal is to achieve
15:3170-20 teeth.
15:33So that more Filipinos
15:35will reach the age of 70
15:37with 20 permanent teeth.
15:41According to PhilHealth,
15:42PhilHealth will also expand
15:44the healthcare package
15:46for those with rare diseases
15:47and mobility devices.
15:49This includes the following
15:51rare diseases.
15:52Maple Syrup Urine Disease,
15:54Methylmalonic Acidemia
15:57or Propionic Acidemia,
15:59Galactosemia,
16:01Phenylketonuria,
16:03Goucher Disease,
16:05Pompe Disease,
16:07Fabry Disease,
16:09MPS2 or Hunter's Syndrome,
16:11MPS4 or Morquillo Syndrome,
16:15and Osteogenesis Imperfecta.
16:18It also includes mobility devices
16:20for physical rehabilitation
16:22like wheelchairs and crutches
16:24if the patient needs them.
16:28Meanwhile,
16:29now that it's Christmas,
16:30food and celebration
16:31are a must every night.
16:33That's why the Department of Health
16:35has a reminder.
16:36Don't forget the discipline
16:38in eating.
16:40This is also accompanied
16:41by exercise
16:42and other physical activities
16:44to fight holiday stress.
16:46DOH also reminds everyone
16:49that a happy celebration
16:51starts with clean hands.
16:53That's why don't forget
16:55to wash your hands
16:56before preparing food.
16:58Wipe your hands until they're dry
17:00so that microbes won't get in.
17:02And wash your hands
17:04before and after eating.
17:06Remember,
17:07whenever we talk about health,
17:09you should always be updated.
17:11Meanwhile,
17:12back to our Facebook question,
17:13Doc Oye,
17:14why does your knee hurt
17:16when you drink soft drinks?
17:18Let's ask Jeremy Cruzales.
17:21Jeremy, it sounds like
17:23if your knee hurts,
17:25the first thing we should think about
17:27is kidney stones.
17:30If you've had this symptom
17:32for a long time
17:33and you haven't done any workup,
17:35there's a high possibility
17:38that you have kidney stones.
17:39All you need to know is
17:40if you've been drinking soft drinks
17:42for a long time.
17:44Because soft drinks,
17:45Jeremy,
17:46contain what we call
17:47phosphoric acid.
17:49And this phosphoric acid
17:51causes a lot of changes
17:53in our body's urine chemistry.
17:56First of all,
17:57it increases
17:58what we call
17:59calcium phosphate.
18:01And if our calcium phosphate
18:03is high in our blood,
18:04we predispose
18:05to the formation
18:06of kidney stones.
18:09And another thing,
18:10phosphoric acid
18:12also causes acidity
18:14in our urine,
18:16which makes it more likely
18:18for kidney stones to form.
18:22Lastly,
18:23drinking soft drinks
18:24because of its content
18:25of phosphoric acid
18:27can also increase
18:28what we call
18:29uric acid.
18:31There are many kinds
18:32of kidney stones.
18:34It can be uric acid stone,
18:35calcium stone,
18:37phosphoric stones.
18:39There are many kinds of stones.
18:41But my advice is
18:42to go for a consultation
18:44or at least
18:45do a urinalysis
18:47and if you can see
18:48that there's blood
18:49in your urine,
18:50especially if you're a male,
18:52that's not normal,
18:53then it's guaranteed
18:54that you should
18:56go for an ultrasound
18:57or consult with a doctor
18:58who will request
18:59these tests
19:00to confirm
19:01if our suspicions
19:03that you have kidney stones
19:04are true.
19:13Different looks.
19:17Length.
19:20And color.
19:22Whatever design
19:23you want,
19:25nailed it.
19:27The good thing about this
19:28is that it really
19:29won't damage you.
19:31So be careful
19:32and take care.
19:35But what if
19:36by a mistake,
19:38it gets damaged?
19:42What if your nail extension
19:45became infected?
19:51According to an expert,
19:52aside from a static appeal,
19:54nail extensions
19:55also protect the nails.
19:58These are like
19:59artificial nails
20:01that are used
20:02to beautify the nails
20:04instead of
20:05the regular manicure.
20:08That's why
20:09Eliza was persuaded
20:10to get nail extensions
20:12because of
20:13its aesthetic appeal.
20:16Of course, having nice
20:17and long nails
20:18looks good, right?
20:19A lot of women would agree
20:21that having nail extensions
20:23would help boost
20:24their confidence.
20:26She also gave herself
20:27a birthday gift
20:28for getting nail extensions.
20:30My birthday is coming up
20:31so I decided to have
20:32birthday nails.
20:33I don't really like it
20:34because I naturally
20:35have long nails.
20:37I just wanted to try it
20:38at that time.
20:40On this beautiful day,
20:41Eliza said
20:42to be very careful
20:43so it won't
20:44come off easily.
20:46Don't wash your hands
20:47or wet your hands
20:48too much
20:49so it won't
20:50come off easily.
20:51Nail extensions last
20:52for a long time.
20:54Because of her carelessness,
20:55Eliza's nail extensions
20:56took a month
20:57to get done.
21:00But she didn't think
21:01that because of
21:02one wrong move,
21:03her nail extensions
21:04would get damaged.
21:12I work from home.
21:13While I was trying
21:14to sit comfortably,
21:15while I was trying
21:16to adjust my seat,
21:17it was like
21:18my clothes pulled
21:19and then
21:20it was like
21:21it was like this.
21:24My whole nail
21:25was really damaged.
21:26And I thought that
21:27it was just
21:28the nail extension.
21:30Even my original nail
21:31was damaged there.
21:33I saw that it was
21:34really swollen.
21:35Even on my original nail,
21:36that's when I cried.
21:38According to
21:39dermatologist
21:40Dr. Jennifer Gan Wong,
21:42nails can get
21:43crushed
21:44when you attach
21:45nail extensions.
21:47So you have to file
21:48the nail
21:49so that it's a little
21:50rough.
21:51The artificial nails
21:52will stick more.
21:54Your nails will be
21:55crushed more
21:56because
21:57it's like
21:58you're filing it.
21:59So it's thinner.
22:01So if you do it regularly,
22:03your nails won't
22:04be healthy anymore.
22:06This is also
22:07probably the reason
22:08why Eliza's nails
22:09were damaged.
22:11Eliza first put
22:12her nails under
22:13first aid.
22:15That time,
22:16while my fiancé was sleeping,
22:17she woke up
22:18and I was crying.
22:19And then,
22:20what he did is
22:21he bought a bandage
22:22and put it on
22:23so that it wouldn't
22:24move
22:25while I was working.
22:28I was brought to
22:29an emergency room
22:30in a nearby hospital.
22:32And the doctor said
22:33that we should
22:34remove
22:35the whole nail
22:36including
22:37my original nail
22:38because it was
22:39already damaged
22:40and it wouldn't be
22:41healthy to grow
22:42if we didn't
22:43remove
22:44the original nail.
22:46Before we decide
22:47if we want to
22:48get artificial
22:49nail extensions,
22:51we need to
22:52take into
22:53consideration
22:54that
22:55we need to
22:56file the nail,
22:57we need to
22:58shave it,
22:59so it's thin,
23:00we need to
23:01moisturize it.
23:02So,
23:03you have to have
23:04all those time
23:05for maintenance
23:06because if not,
23:07you won't be able
23:08to sustain it.
23:09You'll just have
23:10a problem.
23:11Instead of
23:12your nails
23:13getting better,
23:14it might get worse
23:15or you might get
23:16an infection.
23:18In order to
23:19prevent this from
23:20happening,
23:21it's important
23:22to take care
23:23of your nails.
23:25Based on my
23:26nail technician,
23:27in less than a month,
23:28it should be
23:29removed
23:30when our
23:31natural or
23:32original nail
23:33grows.
23:34You can get
23:35nail extensions,
23:36just don't do it
23:37often.
23:38Take a one-month
23:39break between
23:40nail extensions
23:41so you can
23:42recover and
23:43maintain it.
23:44So,
23:45even if it's
23:46beautiful,
23:47it's important
23:48to be safe
23:49from any danger.
23:50It's really
23:51difficult to
23:52make it
23:53beautiful.
23:54It's one of the
23:55things that
23:56makes a woman
23:57beautiful.
23:58They see
23:59that your
24:00nails are
24:01beautiful,
24:02but there are
24:03dangers
24:04especially
24:05if you don't
24:06take care of it.
24:07You can do
24:08the regular
24:09manicure
24:10because we
24:11don't advise
24:12putting
24:13moisturizer on
24:14your nails
24:15because it
24:16gets thin.
24:17She learned
24:18a lesson
24:19from Aliza.
24:20It's not
24:21bad to have
24:22nail extensions
24:23as long as
24:24you take care
24:25of it,
24:26as long as
24:27you maintain
24:28it,
24:29then all
24:30good.
24:31Nail extensions
24:32are an
24:33extension
24:34of our
24:35self-care
24:36to have
24:37beautiful nails.
24:38But if you
24:39want to
24:40try
24:41to make
24:42your nails
24:43beautiful
24:44and add
24:45confidence
24:46to yourself,
24:47there's
24:48nothing
24:49bad about
24:50it.
24:51Just make
24:52sure that
24:53you have
24:54enough and
24:55a good
24:56knowledge
24:57of its
24:58before and
24:59after care
25:00to save
25:01yourself
25:02from any
25:03danger.
25:04This is our
25:05last question
25:06for today,
25:07Doc.
25:08Question
25:09from
25:10Alicia.
25:11Aliza,
25:12what is
25:13your
25:14age profile?
25:15Is there
25:16a risk
25:17factor
25:18for
25:19heart
25:20disease?
25:21We can
25:22expect
25:23pain
25:24but
25:25usually
25:26a condition
25:27like
25:28muscle
25:29strain
25:30can
25:31cause
25:32pain
25:33and
25:34cause
25:35asthma.
25:36People
25:37with asthma
25:38can
25:39exacerbate asthma and will cause chest pain.
25:43There are also conditions that can affect our lungs.
25:46There is swelling of our lungs.
25:48If you have that, it can also cause chest pain if you laugh.
25:56But if the symptoms of chest pain,
25:59especially if it is not triggered by your laughter,
26:02and it is triggered by exertion,
26:04it is also good to work it up,
26:06especially if it depends on your health profile.
26:09Because if you have a lot of risk to have a heart disease,
26:12especially if you have high blood count,
26:14if you are on drugs,
26:15if your life is stressful,
26:17then we really need to consult a doctor
26:20to know if these symptoms are benign or not harmful.
26:25But it is more important that we rule out
26:28if there is a more serious cause of your chest pain while you are laughing.
26:33Thank you so very much for your answer, Doc.
26:35To all the questions sent by our guests,
26:38keep them coming till next week.
26:45Out and Proud
26:47Many are not able to hide their happiness because of their weight loss.
26:53But some, even if they have lost weight,
26:55they still have something to hide.
26:58It's like an apron.
26:59Maybe after 8 months of working out with my coach,
27:05the area around my boobs, tummy, and stomach really got flatter.
27:12Instant goodbye to excess skin.
27:15That's what I mean.
27:19Face scar that never declines.
27:21That's the advantage of makeup content creator Nate Javier
27:25or better known as Ms. Nate.
27:28Hello, it's me, Ms. Nate, your TikTok makeover is on, right?
27:32But aside from the flattered makeup look,
27:34his weight loss this year became noticeable.
27:37I think it's time before I turn 30.
27:39I want to be healthy.
27:41And then number 2 is for aesthetic purposes.
27:44I feel that when it comes to social media,
27:49sometimes it's stronger when you look healthier
27:53in terms of both face and body.
27:57Hi guys, welcome to my first ever YouTube video.
28:01From 96 kilos to 86 kilos, achieved!
28:06Even though his weight loss is not a big deal,
28:08it's a big boost to Nate's confidence.
28:13The shirt size is what my coach and I rely on.
28:16Because at the same time, we're building muscles
28:19from 3XL to size medium.
28:22First, Nate's face shrunk.
28:25And because this is his goal in social media,
28:28his weight loss became more noticeable.
28:31Today, we have another lipstick reco.
28:34With my current diet, which is low carb,
28:36I still feel full.
28:38I still eat a lot.
28:40But I eat the right kinds of food,
28:42which is mainly protein.
28:44So, our carbs and sugars are low.
28:46But I still feel full.
28:49That's the diet I'm doing.
28:53Nate's weight loss secret was also shared online.
28:57And lastly, he eats Blade because he deserves it.
29:00That's it for today's vlog. Thanks for watching. Bye!
29:05But what his viewers don't know is that
29:07he's hiding something.
29:10He's hiding something.
29:12He's hiding something.
29:14He's hiding something.
29:16He's hiding something.
29:19After 8 months of working out with my coach.
29:24What is it that Nate is hiding?
29:30According to a bariatric surgeon,
29:32Dr. Michelle Bernadette Lim Lu,
29:34skin elasticity depends on the patient's age.
29:39For patients in their mid-20s or late-20s,
29:43their weight loss is quite high.
29:46Their elasticity is not the same as before.
29:51We also need to consider
29:53how much weight they lost.
29:57Aside from the makeup look,
29:59it's also a secret reveal.
30:02He's hiding his loose skin around his chin.
30:08After 8 months of working out with my coach,
30:11he lost a lot of weight.
30:13Like the boobs area, the tummy area,
30:15and the stomach area.
30:17He got a flap.
30:21He can hide his pants,
30:23but he's still there.
30:25He's ruining the silhouette of his clothes.
30:27Usually, there's no other cause
30:29of skin aging.
30:31It's just that their skin is too big.
30:35So when there's no more fat
30:37underneath the skin,
30:40there's no structure to hold it.
30:42It can happen to women as well.
30:44As I said,
30:46we also need to consider
30:48how big their weight loss is,
30:50and what age their weight loss is.
30:54As a solution,
30:56Nade went under a tummy tuck procedure
30:58or abdominoplasty.
31:00It's a cosmetic or reconstructive surgery
31:02that removes loose skin
31:04after a massive weight loss.
31:06My doctor told me
31:08I don't need liposuction
31:10because it's not really
31:12the fat anymore.
31:14It's more of the skin that's hanging.
31:16He said,
31:18you're not fat anymore.
31:20You just need to get rid of the excess skin.
31:22That was my final push.
31:26The tummy tuck procedure
31:28basically reduces
31:30the excess skin.
31:33To have a better contour,
31:35a better body,
31:37and a better skin fit,
31:39we can compare it
31:41to clothes.
31:43If it's too oversized,
31:45and we're worried
31:47about the next size
31:49that we can wear,
31:51we can have it tailored
31:53so that the fit
31:55and the skin sag
31:57is better.
31:59At the same time,
32:01Nade went under
32:03gynecomastia
32:05or the reduction
32:07of breast tissues
32:09in men's breasts.
32:11A lot of men suffer from it
32:13where their glans get bigger
32:15so basically,
32:17it's like man boobs.
32:19My gynecomastia was mild
32:21but when I lost weight,
32:23it was emphasized
32:25because it sagged.
32:28Nade went under for surgery.
32:30The first week after the surgery,
32:32it was really hard
32:34to stand up.
32:36I couldn't lie down
32:38or walk straight.
32:40It was painful
32:42to go to the bathroom.
32:44Sometimes,
32:46blood would come out.
32:48There was even a bag
32:50attached to me
32:52where fluids would come out
32:54like excess blood
32:56that's coming from the wounds
32:58inside of my stomach.
33:00For abdominalplasty,
33:02the muscle tissues
33:04are also fixed.
33:06If there are no complications,
33:08the surgery is straightforward.
33:10The only thing to watch out for
33:12is the wound
33:14that doesn't have an infection.
33:16I'm feeling a little bit better
33:18because I can stand up straight.
33:20It's like you have a corset
33:22inside your pants.
33:25It was really painful
33:27even if it was just a scratch
33:29or a hatching
33:31it was really painful
33:33as if the inside of my tummy
33:35was cramping.
33:37Because the blood was still coming out
33:39from the wound or drain,
33:41we did a follow-up check-up
33:43with the surgeon
33:45who did the surgery
33:47to investigate
33:49if it was an infection
33:51or just from the surgery.
33:53Three days after the surgery,
33:55this is what Nate has been waiting for.
33:57Those three days
33:59were the scariest.
34:01Because I felt like
34:03I had a lot of scabs
34:05and I couldn't move
34:07and there were blood on the bandage.
34:14That's when I was relieved
34:16that the surgery was good.
34:18It was clean
34:20and I felt like
34:22I was in front of Frankenstein.
34:24When he opened the wound,
34:26I realized that it was clean.
34:28Usually, in one week,
34:30the wound will heal
34:32but the important thing
34:34is the healing process
34:36inside the wound
34:38and when the tummy tuck
34:40will heal
34:42under the skin.
34:44That would range between
34:46around six to eight weeks.
34:48It took three months
34:50for Nate's wound to heal.
34:52Until now,
34:54there are still swelling
34:56and parts that are still watery
34:58if you touch it.
35:00I'm just waiting for it to heal.
35:02Given clearance to start
35:04light walking and brisk walk
35:06the first month
35:08and then the second month
35:10I tried light exercises
35:12and then the third month
35:14I was able to stretch
35:16and work out
35:18comfortably.
35:20To this day,
35:22he enjoys his flat tummy
35:24and doesn't have to worry about it.
35:26I'm very, very happy
35:28because
35:30there's no more
35:32apron of skin on my tummy.
35:34In terms of
35:36the recovery,
35:38there's nothing
35:40that I can't do
35:42before the surgery.
35:44I can work out
35:46or even intense workouts.
35:50For those who underwent this procedure,
35:52the expert said
35:54it's not a weight loss solution.
35:56Nate received P300,000
35:58for this procedure.
36:00Tummy tuck is
36:02just one way
36:04to reduce the excess
36:06skin.
36:08It doesn't affect
36:10the patient
36:12in terms of
36:14weight loss.
36:16A lot of people don't know that
36:18it's not a weight loss procedure,
36:20it's more of a skin tightening
36:22and contouring procedure.
36:24Excess skin removal.
36:26I recommend you go to a doctor
36:28who is reliable
36:30and has experience.
36:32Tummy tuck for Chan
36:34is a must!
36:36It's important to have an expert
36:38before any surgery
36:40to ensure your health.
