00:00:00.180
You see drugs that came out that were revolutionary that we use, GLP-1 being one of them, and that came out in 2005.
00:00:07.940
Then you go look at when hair transplant became a thing, and that was back in 19—I want to say 1960s, if I'm not mistaken.
00:00:18.760
Let me see this here. Yeah, so you got hair transplant, 1960s, first performed in 1950 by Dr. Norman Arendtreich.
00:00:34.060
Birth control pills, May 9th, 1960, FDA approved.
00:00:37.800
A lot of people say that was one of the worst things that we did with birth control pills.
00:00:45.700
You know, a lot of happy campers because of that one, okay?
00:00:49.140
But they also say there's some side effects with that.
00:00:53.460
What do you think is going to be the next big thing that hasn't happened yet?
00:00:56.440
in terms of advances advances or even you know a pleasure quick fix because remember viagra that
00:01:04.520
was like a guys were making a kill and just selling that pill when it first came out
00:01:08.700
pharmaceutical sales people were all going to you know saying hey i want to be able to sell
00:01:12.820
that product i hear guys are making two three four hundred thousand dollars a year it was such
00:01:16.020
an easy product to sell to doctors what do you think could be the next thing next big thing
00:01:20.780
hmm we're becoming more vain social media is not going away we want to look good
00:01:25.840
you know we want to look sexy we want to look appealing this is a tough one pat i don't know
00:01:31.800
here you know i mean peptides and glps glps are a peptide but i think we've kind of already
00:01:36.900
talked about this but i think peptides and glps are the next big thing so i think from glps we
00:01:41.540
have to say it's it's kind of already here is the peptides you know now we've got the gnrh
00:02:10.980
to say, let me go fix my hair. And you can go to Turkey
00:02:28.200
I said, buddy, take that camera off my head right now.
00:02:30.520
You know, they're kind of going through the whole thing.
00:02:51.300
The year she died, they came out with breast implants.
00:02:53.980
So maybe everybody wanted to be, you know, kind of like her.
00:02:57.380
So insecurities with birth control, maybe that's more like a risk.
00:03:02.700
Allow me to be reckless and have sex without having anything to worry about.
00:03:12.260
you know massive it's a massive number by the way on botox it's a big number and there's some
00:03:17.200
some really interesting stuff with botox there's a clip circulating from euphoria season three i
00:03:21.760
don't watch this but i saw it maybe we can pull it up it's two characters it's it it's at one of
00:03:26.900
the characters weddings and there's this really interesting juxtaposition of one one actress
00:03:33.500
has a large amount of botox in her face and the other actress sydney sweeney doesn't have as much
00:03:39.080
botox and so that's a clip where they're at the sydney sweeney's character is at her wedding
00:03:44.140
and this these two characters are arguing and then one character with botox on her face is saying
00:03:49.680
we paid we paid for our kids college fund and you can see her getting very angry and her face isn't
00:03:54.540
moving at all and then sydney sweeney says what does that have to do with me and you can see her
00:03:58.920
furrowing her brow and her you know her the muscles of the glabella muscles in the forehead
00:04:04.040
it's very interesting because we'll find the clip um it's it's it's out there on x for sure it's
00:04:10.660
just it's at her wedding you know and the one actress but what's interesting about this for
00:04:14.640
me is i think botox see if it comes up if you type in botox is is that um i found a recent study and
00:04:22.600
i posted about this on x that where you inject the botox in your face matters so there's some
00:04:30.920
studies that show that if you inject the frown lines with botox it improves depression scores
00:04:47.320
so there's something called in this theory of embodied emotions that when we feel an emotion
00:04:52.320
whether it's sadness or happiness or other emotions that i'll get to in a moment our face moves and
00:04:57.460
our face moving with these emotions is integral to actually feeling the emotion so if you inject
00:05:04.460
the frown lines in the face or maybe these 11s here in the middle of your face I've never had
00:05:09.380
any Botox but you know I look at my face and I think should I get this and then I read this study
0.99
00:05:13.940
if you inject the frown lines or you inject the places in your face that are being expressed when
00:05:18.740
you have negative emotions it actually improves depression scores but if you inject the parts of
00:05:22.780
your face, like the laugh lines, it worsens depression scores because you can't, the theory
00:05:28.120
would be you can't express the happiness as much. And so there was a recent study that looked at
00:05:32.960
that. And then it also looked at, and again, it's one study. And I think it was a small study of 36
00:05:37.780
women, but there was a similar finding that when they injected certain areas of the face, women
00:05:42.680
reported less orgasm intensity because- You couldn't see if they're enjoying it or not.
0.52
00:05:48.300
Well, because they can't express the enjoyment on their face when they're having the orgasm
00:05:59.700
So this is the, they use something called the sexual satisfaction score.
00:06:04.940
And so they had lower orgasm intensity and enjoyment because you can't,
00:06:10.920
you need to move your face to embody an emotion.
00:06:14.400
Again, it's one study, but there's a lot of people getting Botox.
00:06:17.940
And I thought that clip from Euphoria was fascinating
1.00
00:06:20.340
because you can see this woman getting very angry
0.99
00:06:24.180
And as humans, as you and I are sitting across the table.
00:06:26.880
Cumberto, Rob, did you guys find that clip or no?
00:06:35.760
You want to just text it to Rob and we'll add it?
00:06:41.240
It's not live, so we can re-edit and add that part to it, Rob,
00:06:45.660
As you and I are talking to each other, I'm looking at your face.
00:06:54.160
Think about the bonding that goes on between a mother and a child.
00:06:57.360
Think about the complex emotional dance that happens between two people during courtship.
00:07:04.380
And think about the way that paralyzing too much of your face could affect this.
00:07:11.360
If you go to, like, a comedy club in, like, you know, Highland Park, Dallas, and everybody's on Botox, and you're like, are these people enjoying it or not?
00:07:22.200
You just can't tell because they're not smiling.
00:07:24.780
And so, look, there's ways apparently, again, I've never had any Botox, but there's ways that you can do baby Botox and maybe not paralyze it or be careful with the muscles.
00:07:37.540
Like, I just think there's a word of caution with Botox.
00:07:43.020
And look, I've got some lines across my forehead that I'm self-conscious about.
00:07:46.700
But do I want to affect my ability to feel an emotion?
00:07:52.180
And do I want to affect my ability to bond with someone potentially my future kids?
00:07:57.020
No, I mean, listen, you look at me, you can see freeways on my forehead.
00:08:05.140
But, you know, it is a big business when you look at Botox.
00:08:10.640
on how many people are using it i think it was 85 percent of people that use uh uh do we have the
00:08:17.360
numbers on that with botox rob it's a very very high number on what percentage are women and how
00:08:23.040
much money is being spent in it and what we're doing with that yeah right there 85 to 94 percent
00:08:28.320
of all botox cosmetic procedures are performed on women with millions receiving injections annually
00:08:34.000
in the u.s while only one percent total u.s population gets botox survey indicate up to 42
00:08:39.360
percent of women have had the treatment the highest usage in among women 40 to 54 though
00:08:45.200
preventative Botox is surging in those under 40. Preventative Botox this is preventative Botox
00:08:51.520
women in their 20s and 30s who say I don't want to get a wrinkle so I'm going to paralyze the
0.99
00:08:56.760
muscles now they don't have a wrinkle they're trying to get rid of they're trying to prevent
1.00
00:09:00.820
wrinkles this is I mean it's kind of scary you know it's you think I mean there's women in their
0.52
00:09:06.700
20s now getting Botox for sure. For sure. That's wild. Hey guys, I am Paul Saladino. You can find
