[SPEAKER_01]: She didn't kill you.

00:30.679 --> 00:31.920
[SPEAKER_01]: She didn't bring the baby to her.

00:31.940 --> 00:33.140
[SPEAKER_01]: She left the baby.

00:33.201 --> 00:33.601
[SPEAKER_01]: She was gone.

00:33.641 --> 00:34.181
[SPEAKER_00]: She was gone.

00:34.201 --> 00:34.481
[SPEAKER_00]: The other room.

00:34.521 --> 00:57.237
[SPEAKER_02]: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

00:58.470 --> 01:08.338
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh my gosh, okay, well and all seriousness today we're gonna talk about Amelia um why this is an episode is this has been a huge deal my treatment room right now.

01:08.438 --> 01:09.859
[SPEAKER_00]: What in the world is Amelia?

01:10.019 --> 01:11.060
[SPEAKER_01]: I know, right?

01:12.842 --> 01:19.587
[SPEAKER_02]: I think with summer and everything else okay let me explain what Amelia is so that Lena and Heather could laugh at me.

01:22.053 --> 01:29.358
[SPEAKER_02]: Millia is, it looks, it's a little white, blemish on the skin, it looks like a pimple, but it has a hard inner core.

01:30.018 --> 01:33.701
[SPEAKER_02]: And you can pick and pick and pick at it and you can't get that core out.

01:34.201 --> 01:37.343
[SPEAKER_02]: So, then do a lot of damage to your skin trying to do that.

01:37.403 --> 01:37.823
[SPEAKER_02]: You can.

01:38.304 --> 01:49.191
[SPEAKER_02]: And a lot of times you'll see Millia under the eyes, on the nose, on the cheeks, on the chin, and you can actually scar yourself if you try to pick and pick and pick those out.

01:51.787 --> 01:52.928
[SPEAKER_02]: they're made up of.

01:52.948 --> 01:53.769
[SPEAKER_01]: They're not pimples.

01:53.889 --> 01:54.490
[SPEAKER_02]: They're not pimples.

01:55.090 --> 01:56.171
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what they look like a pimple.

01:56.211 --> 01:58.313
[SPEAKER_01]: Everyone thinks they're pimples and they're not pimples.

01:58.333 --> 01:59.513
[SPEAKER_01]: They're little cysts.

02:00.134 --> 02:03.937
[SPEAKER_00]: So is it made up of calcium deposits or dead skin cells?

02:03.957 --> 02:05.658
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like heart dead skin cells.

02:05.698 --> 02:11.523
[SPEAKER_01]: Basically, um, sebum has like sat there and it's like turned it into a little heart's ball under your skin.

02:11.803 --> 02:13.704
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's painful, it is painful.

02:14.145 --> 02:39.422
[SPEAKER_01]: So why this comes up, I have teenagers, I actually had a huge influx of teenagers right now, like my acne facials, all of them came to me for acne, they don't have acne, well, they do have some acne, but what they're seeing is Amelia, and so that's why I decided to make this podcast because they go to the Durham, Durham gives them Trent no end, and then they send them to me for extractions.

02:40.628 --> 02:46.293
[SPEAKER_01]: I am going to tell you that our estations that extract with Elancet.

02:46.313 --> 02:47.414
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't do that.

02:47.714 --> 02:48.855
[SPEAKER_01]: I won't, I won't do that.

02:49.055 --> 02:50.336
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you prefer Thermalysis?

02:50.516 --> 02:50.937
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

02:51.517 --> 02:52.858
[SPEAKER_01]: One, it's way less painful.

02:53.699 --> 02:56.862
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, extra 4 million is not comfortable.

02:57.002 --> 02:59.083
[SPEAKER_01]: What does Thermalysis do to the Millia?

02:59.884 --> 03:02.046
[SPEAKER_01]: The hydrates around it and it pushes the Millia out.

03:02.566 --> 03:06.109
[SPEAKER_01]: So either way, um, you just threw me off my

03:09.572 --> 03:09.912
[SPEAKER_00]: it's fun.

03:10.593 --> 03:11.313
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the center.

03:11.914 --> 03:12.334
[SPEAKER_01]: It's the center.

03:12.354 --> 03:13.835
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a change recording date.

03:13.875 --> 03:14.655
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what it is.

03:17.077 --> 03:18.658
[SPEAKER_01]: Let me throw my little tantrum for a second.

03:19.278 --> 03:21.440
[SPEAKER_01]: This is what I don't recommend working with your mom sometimes.

03:24.221 --> 03:24.862
[SPEAKER_01]: I love you.

03:25.422 --> 03:26.563
[SPEAKER_00]: Your mom and your second mom.

03:26.983 --> 03:27.904
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you're right.

03:28.464 --> 03:29.985
[SPEAKER_01]: Her daughter's my mini me.

03:30.085 --> 03:30.706
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, the two of you.

03:30.726 --> 03:31.206
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, let's keep

03:38.811 --> 03:40.192
[SPEAKER_02]: I have no idea where you're going with this.

03:40.812 --> 03:58.119
[SPEAKER_02]: But extracting milk, if you go in and you extract it, the traditional way, especially if you're in a facial, you just be, we use a machine called thermolysis, which it goes in and it dehydrates those little milk.

03:58.480 --> 04:03.542
[SPEAKER_02]: And so they will, you may still see them when you leave, but over the next week, they're going to dissipate.

04:04.822 --> 04:17.149
[SPEAKER_00]: And that is the most effective way, you pat, you're not going to scar, and it's not intended to be a painful procedure if it is a painful procedure.

04:17.489 --> 04:17.709
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

04:18.170 --> 04:20.331
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not being done properly.

04:20.651 --> 04:20.851
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

04:21.652 --> 04:30.797
[SPEAKER_01]: But, um, so, where I was it was extracting them, there was halogists, we'll tell you, you need an extraction facial.

04:31.930 --> 04:34.572
[SPEAKER_01]: We want to do and peals help with Amelia.

04:34.612 --> 04:36.734
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, peals are a good go to the end.

04:36.754 --> 04:38.075
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a lot with our last two weeks.

04:38.155 --> 04:38.496
[SPEAKER_01]: It does.

04:38.856 --> 04:40.457
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, I forgot what we were talking about peals.

04:40.517 --> 04:43.280
[SPEAKER_01]: But peals will help with Amelia, it'll help soften the skin.

04:43.840 --> 04:49.805
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's going to be kind of something where, and when it comes to me from Amelia, we're going to get on a regime that is exfoliating.

04:51.267 --> 04:54.189
[SPEAKER_01]: Because that's going to be the best way to help keep it from coming back.

04:54.209 --> 04:55.691
[SPEAKER_01]: And Amelia will come back.

04:55.851 --> 04:56.691
[SPEAKER_01]: You'll be prone to them.

04:57.432 --> 04:59.013
[SPEAKER_01]: It will be something to treat right now.

04:59.943 --> 05:04.989
[SPEAKER_01]: but you may have little clusters pop up here and there and we'll just have to go in and free-treat them.

05:05.610 --> 05:14.981
[SPEAKER_02]: Something that I know with my skin because I'm very prone, I have larger pores, I'm very prone to milia, is when I start seeing the milia come back, I know it's peel time.

05:16.223 --> 05:34.341
[SPEAKER_02]: And I try to get a VIPL every, you know, four months, five months, and it's almost guaranteed that that month before I need to do that appeal is when those millions I'm going to start seeing popping up around my face, especially on on my cheeks.

05:35.062 --> 05:36.924
[SPEAKER_02]: Is that kind of in that area where you see?

05:37.064 --> 05:43.850
[SPEAKER_02]: I get them in my cheek area and I think a lot of that is probably because I wear a mask whenever I do lashes and whenever I'm working in a treatment room.

05:45.111 --> 05:51.376
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's one thing that I know is when I start getting them, it's time to get a peel.

05:52.277 --> 05:54.899
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's one thing that will help to minimize them.

05:55.982 --> 06:00.845
[SPEAKER_01]: I say a lot of my like oil-air skin types get a lot of them up here on their forehead.

06:01.885 --> 06:06.648
[SPEAKER_01]: Not me because mine's burnt, but you know, do as we say not as we do.

06:06.668 --> 06:08.049
[SPEAKER_01]: This has been getting me today.

06:09.930 --> 06:14.253
[SPEAKER_01]: What not to do whenever you have millions, you do not pick and try to pop them at home.

06:14.913 --> 06:18.275
[SPEAKER_01]: I have clients that say, oh, well, I can get them out, but it takes a lot.

06:18.455 --> 06:21.217
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, if it is hard to get these out, do not

06:21.877 --> 06:22.457
[SPEAKER_01]: keep going.

06:22.858 --> 06:24.719
[SPEAKER_02]: And a lot of times you'll only get half of it out.

06:25.579 --> 06:28.241
[SPEAKER_02]: And then that'll just cause them to continue to build up.

06:28.701 --> 06:33.604
[SPEAKER_02]: So, you know, go ahead and go to your esthetician and get that done.

06:34.024 --> 06:37.867
[SPEAKER_02]: If you are on threat, no, and acutane, it's going to be a little tough.

06:38.027 --> 06:39.027
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, to do.

06:39.167 --> 06:45.731
[SPEAKER_02]: So, make sure that you know what, bring us what type of medications you're on because it can be a consequence.

06:45.831 --> 06:47.973
[SPEAKER_01]: If you're on acutane, I will not do it.

06:48.773 --> 06:49.274
[SPEAKER_01]: I do.

06:50.034 --> 06:52.416
[SPEAKER_01]: They say we can do a lot more stuff now, but I won't touch you.

06:52.896 --> 06:58.800
[SPEAKER_01]: If you're on acting till we are done with it for a while because there's just two instructions while they're on acutane.

06:58.940 --> 07:01.121
[SPEAKER_01]: They're going to, it can be a lot easier to scar them.

07:01.542 --> 07:01.862
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

07:02.562 --> 07:09.127
[SPEAKER_01]: And I am not putting one or not chance that you might as well finish your acutane.

07:09.527 --> 07:12.749
[SPEAKER_01]: Be done with it for six months and then come to me and we'll start working on it.

07:12.809 --> 07:13.089
[SPEAKER_01]: Gotcha.

07:15.914 --> 07:18.215
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not really that difficult of a skin condition.

07:19.275 --> 07:20.476
[SPEAKER_01]: There's an easy way to fix it.

07:20.536 --> 07:21.456
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just out.

07:21.616 --> 07:24.597
[SPEAKER_01]: I had how many people come in and like I have breaking out so bad.

07:24.637 --> 07:25.277
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a little million.

07:25.297 --> 07:26.738
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, oh, those are not breakouts.

07:26.918 --> 07:31.479
[SPEAKER_02]: That's going to take a little bit longer and it's not just teens that get these.

07:31.499 --> 07:32.199
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.

07:32.219 --> 07:34.000
[SPEAKER_02]: I have a lot of times adults even.

07:34.420 --> 07:49.297
[SPEAKER_02]: I have clients in their there are 70s that get media and it's just kind of the aging process and it's our skin is is building up that where building up those those calcium deposits and sometimes that will cause the million to appear and it's

07:50.018 --> 07:57.743
[SPEAKER_02]: a lot of times it's kind of a chronic condition when you're older and so it's something that we're going to have to continue to keep treating in order to keep them gone.

07:58.144 --> 08:00.685
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not that they're coming back in the same place.

08:00.705 --> 08:02.867
[SPEAKER_02]: This is just that they're coming back in other places.

08:03.447 --> 08:04.708
[SPEAKER_00]: And so in the ears.

08:05.088 --> 08:09.531
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, we like Macy had one last older, yes, in the 70s, she had him in her ears.

08:09.611 --> 08:09.711
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

08:12.313 --> 08:22.057
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's now I was gonna do a myth or like myth or whatever, but there's a lot of misconceptions with it.

08:22.877 --> 08:26.718
[SPEAKER_01]: So one of these was like a myth is it's not just oily skin types.

08:26.979 --> 08:28.779
[SPEAKER_01]: No, not just oily skin types.

08:28.979 --> 08:30.180
[SPEAKER_01]: Every skin type gets million.

08:31.000 --> 08:38.483
[SPEAKER_01]: And my, like, what I have seen is the people are prone to it more are the oilier skin types.

08:38.783 --> 08:43.465
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, it's because that's what it's made up of sebum, oil and dead skin cells.

08:43.525 --> 08:44.205
[SPEAKER_02]: And dead skin cells.

08:44.225 --> 08:46.786
[SPEAKER_02]: So if your skin is oily or you're going to be more prone to happen.

08:46.846 --> 08:48.246
[SPEAKER_01]: And they're not in a poor.

08:48.306 --> 08:50.167
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's why they're so hard to get out.

08:50.547 --> 08:50.827
[SPEAKER_01]: Is it?

08:51.167 --> 08:52.688
[SPEAKER_01]: A million is not in a poor.

08:52.908 --> 08:54.429
[SPEAKER_01]: It can be anywhere under the skin.

08:55.189 --> 08:57.710
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's why it's not actually trying to come out of poor.

08:58.250 --> 09:00.172
[SPEAKER_00]: like a actual and like a pimp gun.

09:01.514 --> 09:03.897
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, if anything else to add in that milieu.

09:05.184 --> 09:12.707
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I'm, this is just an information of what Amelia is just because just kind of seen an influx of people coming.

09:12.727 --> 09:17.209
[SPEAKER_01]: So I have, I have had so many that and they come to me from a dermatologist as you need.

09:18.109 --> 09:22.751
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, a lot of times those things going to a dermatologist, they're not going to address Amelia.

09:22.771 --> 09:24.132
[SPEAKER_02]: They're not going to address keratosis.

09:24.152 --> 09:26.813
[SPEAKER_02]: They're not going to address those superficial.

09:27.553 --> 09:28.954
[SPEAKER_00]: They're dealing with and bigger because

09:29.814 --> 09:30.555
[SPEAKER_02]: they're there.

09:30.635 --> 09:33.237
[SPEAKER_01]: And I don't say they know what we have now.

09:33.257 --> 09:35.839
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I don't, you know, dermatologists, they have their stuff.

09:36.020 --> 09:38.982
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think they know that we have things like their molasses and stuff.

09:39.443 --> 09:42.205
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a lot less painful than extracting them.

09:42.906 --> 09:44.187
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, we can't extract them.

09:44.287 --> 09:45.228
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I will not.

09:45.828 --> 09:47.149
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll do another simpler way.

09:47.189 --> 09:48.569
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'll do another avenue.

09:49.010 --> 10:11.700
[SPEAKER_02]: So if you have Amelia, give us a call, we'll, a lot of the times we'll just let you book you right into at their mollusus, if you know that they are Amelia come in because they're pretty easy to spot and then if we need to change and at their mollusus treatment, we can treat those Amelia, if we're doing a facial, we can do a stackable, we can do a facial and then we can stack that their mollusus on top of it and do a Amelia treatment after we can.

10:15.742 --> 10:19.105
[SPEAKER_01]: If we start doing acne, that's not going to clear up milieu.

10:19.225 --> 10:22.708
[SPEAKER_01]: We got to actually go in and extract them, get them out somehow.

10:23.689 --> 10:27.092
[SPEAKER_01]: So if we're doing acne, those aren't going to clear up, you're not going to be happy with your results.

10:27.292 --> 10:33.597
[SPEAKER_01]: So let's take care of the million first, and then we'll finish the rest of the acne that's left over, and that way you get the results you are wanting.

10:33.617 --> 10:34.058
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

10:35.470 --> 10:38.791
[SPEAKER_02]: So anybody have questions, just leave them in the comment.

10:39.371 --> 10:43.152
[SPEAKER_02]: This is something that we do get a lot of calls and questions on from our clients.

10:43.232 --> 10:45.152
[SPEAKER_02]: And so that's why we kind of set up this.

10:45.772 --> 10:53.274
[SPEAKER_02]: Lena set up this appointment because she wanted to clear up some of those misconceptions about Amelia and to let you know that we do have treatments.

10:53.314 --> 10:59.795
[SPEAKER_02]: And there are treatments out there other than just Extractions because I've seen clients with, you know, 30, 40 million on their forehead.

11:00.555 --> 11:22.867
[SPEAKER_02]: And you go extracting all of those and you're going to create scars and so it's just going to be painful I'm going to literally lancet them Yeah, so we do have that option and we can do we can do a ton of them at one time and within 20 minutes We can do 20 Millia nice and so it's it's and a three molasses is so great for lots of things Oh, yeah, I'm tags and

11:23.895 --> 11:26.857
[SPEAKER_01]: You got any skin tags, a cherry in jomans, y'all want jomans.

11:26.937 --> 11:27.697
[SPEAKER_01]: Come on, my way.

11:27.838 --> 11:28.078
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

11:28.678 --> 11:29.539
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, that's them all.

11:29.599 --> 11:30.379
[SPEAKER_01]: This is my favorite.

11:30.439 --> 11:31.780
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it's one of my favorites.

11:32.040 --> 11:33.061
[SPEAKER_01]: Everything's my favorite.

11:33.441 --> 11:34.682
[SPEAKER_01]: We love my job.
