Save Face: Non-Surgical Solutions From a Plastic Surgeon – Dr. Rob Whitfield

Dave Asprey

Feb 8, 2024

Episode description

Today’s show is a masterclass in improving your skin without going under the knife. I’m excited to welcome back Dr. Rob Whitfield, an Austin-based plastic surgeon who specializes in breast implant removal surgeries and advanced cosmetic procedures. He invented the famous “No-Cut” Facelift, which revolutionized non-surgical facelifts for a more natural appearance. 

I worked with Rob on a “No-Cut” Facelift, and he removed excess skin from my back after my weight loss. I got to be the guinea pig, and now I’m sharing everything I learned with you. On today's episode, I recount my experience and results with these procedures. Dr. Rob explains what a “No-Cut” Facelift is, plus other non-surgical procedures to tighten fat, remove excess skin, and reduce wrinkles. 

We talk about radio frequency-assisted lipolysis, SoftWave therapy, Morpheus8, and a whole lot more. Plus, we get into foods that hurt your skin, injectable vs. topical peptides, and biohacking skincare. Basically, it’s everything you need to know for younger, healthier-looking skin. And let’s face it, we all want that.

Mindsip insights from this episode:

Experience minimal downtime with the 'Zoom Lift' neck procedure

The Elevate procedure, nicknamed the 'Zoom Lift,' is a minimally invasive neck lift that uses internal sutures under the jawline to tighten the neck with less than a week of downtime.

Limit collagen intake to prevent tissue calcification

Consuming excessive amounts of collagen is not recommended as the hydroxyproline in it can drive up oxalate levels in your tissues, potentially leading to calcification.

Enjoy 20 minutes of sun exposure to boost collagen thickness

Contrary to popular belief, 20 minutes of unprotected sun exposure on your face can be healthy and increase collagen thickness; use micronized zinc for longer durations.

Eliminate eggs to reduce inflammation and resolve health issues

Despite being nutrient-dense, eggs are a common trigger for inflammation in many people, and removing them from your diet could resolve unexplained health issues.

Utilize your own fat for safer stem cell therapy

Using stem cells derived from your own fat is considered much safer than using umbilical cord cells from unknown donors, which can carry unforeseen consequences.

Avoid aggressive ablative lasers to prevent skin fragility

Aggressive ablative lasers are described as a 'controlled burn' on the face and are not recommended because they can create skin fragility over time.

Avoid facial threading to prevent uneven scarring

Facial threading is not recommended because it can create uneven scarring under the skin, which makes future advanced treatments more difficult to perform effectively.

Experience tighter skin with no-cut facelift procedure

The 'no-cut facelift' is a procedure that uses hollow microneedles to remove thousands of tiny skin cores, resulting in tighter skin without traditional surgical scars.

Prep skin with space bacteria for enhanced treatment outcomes

A serum called Aseonia, derived from Bacillus lysate bacteria found on the space station, is used before aggressive treatments to downregulate melanin production and reduce inflammation.
