Well Doctor Arthur Perry, he's one of the top plastic surgeons.
He's got offices in Manhattan, New Jersey. You know what,
He's been doing the show here on w R for
years and years and years. Very popular show and a
great plastic surgeon. Everybody has questions on this subject, so
he's the guy to ask.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
Doctor Arthur Perry, and the public wants to know.

Speaker 4 (00:28):
That public doesn't get a damn.

Speaker 2 (00:30):

look at my face, and he goes, yeah, look at
your face.

We're going to do with your fan. What can you
do with his face? I go like that, I s

When I was a resident at the University of Chicago,
we had.

Speaker 5 (00:57):
A I mean, you're smart, as I really really gift
his position. I want to pay you the highest tree
that I can give to a surgeon, which is when
people come to you, they don't come for an operation,
they come for the opinion. And that's why I trust
you with my friends and relatives. I didn't realize we
were going to get the Michael Jordan of Plastic Surgeons
nine two to zero bows to this guide and welcome.

Speaker 6 (01:17):
This is BORD certified plastic surgeon, doctor Arthur Perry, and yes,
this is what's your rental right here on Woir and
straight talk about cosmetic surgery on the in the Internet
and the podcast world. So thank you so much for listening.
On this Saturday evening in New York City, I'm broadcasting
live from the Hamptons. It's that time of year again.

(01:37):
It's you wouldn't believe it's the summer. Though it's a
little cold in the Northeast United States. I'm not sure
it even got into the sixties today, but the UV
index was up there, and that's that means you need sunscreen.

Speaker 3 (01:49):
So even though it's.

Speaker 6 (01:50):
A little bit cold, it is the almost the summer,
and you do need sunscreen if the UV index is
over three, and it was today, so that means lather
it on. And we're gonna be giving away bottles of
my sunscreen today. It's called Doctor Perry's Daytime and it's
an SPF twenty three sunscreen. It's really nice on your

(02:11):
face and you can put it on the rest of
your body also, but it's meant to be a facial sunscreen.
So we're giving away bottles of it tonight. The phone call.
The phone number here at WR is eight hundred three
to two one zero seven ten. That's eight hundred three
to two one zero seven ten. We're gonna be talking
about cosmetic surgery on this show. That's what I do.

(02:32):
I'm a board certified plastic surgeon. I've been doing this
for a long time, three decades, more than three decades
of cosmetic surgery and two decades on wor talking about
what I do best, that is fixing wrinkles and sagging
skin and jowls and the extra skin of the neck
and taking care of drooping breasts and protuberant abdomens the bellies.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
That's what I do.

Speaker 6 (02:59):
I'm a board sied plastic surgeon, and I welcome your
phone calls because I'm here for you. This is a
kind of a free consult If you're going to the
plastic surgeon on this upcoming week, don't know what to
ask the doctor, you know, give me a call, we'll
talk about it. We'll try and channel your consultation so

(03:20):
that you get the most out of it. Or if
you've already had surgery and you're really confused, if something
is going just the right way, give me a call
and if you want me to try and help you
sort out your issues with cosmetic surgery, this is the
number to call. Eight hundred and three two one zero
seven ten. So today we're going to talk about a
little bit about sunscreen because it's Memorial Day weekend and

(03:45):
you should have your sunscreen. But the Environmental Working Group
they put out their list of sunscreens and they didn't
have good things to say about most sunscreens.

Speaker 3 (03:54):
So we'll talk about that.

Speaker 6 (03:55):
It is breast surgery season, it really is, you know,
breast augmentations, breast lists, breast reductions, this is the time
of year because the summer is about to begin, and
this is your last chance to have that kind of
surgery before you get into your bathing suits. So we'll
talk about breast surgery, and let's see, we'll talk about.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
Maybe how about Chris Jenner.

Speaker 6 (04:21):
Yah, Susan, you mentioned the Chris Jenner to me and
I looked up. She had some pretty good cosmetic surgery.
We'll talk about that in a few minutes. It's kind
of an example of good cosmetic surgery.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
There's so much.

Speaker 6 (04:33):
Bad surgery out there, but she had some very good surgery,
So give me a call. I want to mention that
I am now part of well by Messer. I've got
an office in Manhattan on eighty fifth Street and Park Avenue,

number I just gave out two one two seven five
three eighteen twenty. Well, that's my Park Avenue office, So
give me a call and more than happy to take
care of you.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
So we've got Shelley on the line. Shelley, what can
I do for you? What's that's your uncle?

Speaker 4 (06:02):
Hi, doctor Perrys. I just wanted to tell you that
I'm a really great fan of yours and I have
a question because I'm really due for a facelift. I
think that I am, you know, showing the whereas and
carriers of time, and I'm wondering, you know, what kind

(06:25):
of tools do you use to perform a facelift these days,
I'm wondering about that.

Speaker 6 (06:30):
Well, jack hammers and hammer now I'm getting us a
that's a good question.

Speaker 3 (06:35):
So Shelly, how old are you?

Speaker 4 (06:37):
First of all, well, I'm seventy three years young.

Speaker 3 (06:41):
Okay, good.

Speaker 6 (06:42):
So you know, I do facelifts on women in their
forties and fifties and sixties and seventies, and a few
weeks ago I did an eighty three year old, one
of the oldest people I've done a facelift on.

Speaker 3 (06:56):
But the operation does.

Speaker 6 (06:58):
Vary depending on how old you are and what exactly
your problems are. So the tools we use, of course,
you know, the standard tools of surgery are a scalpel, scissors.
You know, some people do faceless with lasers, but that's
kind of crazy because lasers are they're just a tool.
And when we use a laser, you know, when I

(07:19):
was at the University of Chicago, we had one plastic
surgeon who was, you know, mister Laser. Every operation he
wanted to use the laser because that was his marketing thing.
And it turns out that when we do traditional procedures
like facelifts and eyelid lifts with lasers, they actually take
longer and they're actually bloodier.

Speaker 3 (07:40):
And the reason for that.

Speaker 6 (07:41):
Is because when we do get bleeding, we have to
stop with the laser. We have to pick up traditional
instruments stop the bleeding, then go on. And and it
turns out also that lasers, while they are very good
for things like wrinkles and getting rid of red capillaries
and things like that, when we make in decisions with lasers,

(08:01):
it actually takes.

Speaker 3 (08:03):
Longer to heal because there's a heat injury from the laser.

Speaker 6 (08:05):
So in answer to your question, I use traditional, traditional
instruments that plastic surgeons have been using for many decades,
although the techniques that we use have certainly changed. So
I do a short scar facelift now. When I started
doing facelifts, I did a long scar facelift. That means
one that went up into the hairline above the ear,

(08:27):
in front of the ear, behind the ear, and then
into the hairline again. We've eliminated those hairline incisions now,
which is really good. We call this the ponytail friendly
facelift or the short scar facelift. And when I do
this facelift now, it's usually pretty hard to see the incision.
Just a few weeks after surgery, and that's good. It's

(08:51):
harder to do the short scar facelift for the plastic surgeon,
but much much better for you. So the question also
is what age do we do the face. You didn't
ask it, but I'll answer it. I've done them as
late as early as the forties. I did a fifty
three year old a couple of weeks ago, and I
did an eighty three year old a few weeks ago also,

(09:13):
so everyone in between.

Speaker 3 (09:15):
If you do have a facelift earlier.

Speaker 6 (09:18):
Then those deep crags will not have a chance to
set in. So there's an argument to doing it early
as opposed to later. And you know what, if you
have a facelift when you're fifty, it usually will last
ten or maybe twelve or sometimes even fifteen years. If
you do a facelift when you're seventy five, it probably
will only last about five or six or seven years.

(09:41):
So you get longer out of a facelift if you
do it younger.

Speaker 7 (09:44):
Shelley, Okay, yeah, okay, Well, well I got cleared by
my cardiologist and my endochronologist and they both said, you know,
it's a go as so long as I could find
a plastic shirt who is willing to attack my.

Speaker 4 (10:03):
My pour base. But thank you for your answer. Dr

Speaker 6 (10:49):
All right, I'm BORD certified Plastic Search and doctor Arthur Perry.
We're going to take a short break. Eight hundred three
two one zero seven ten is the phone number. Eight
hundred three two one zero seven ten is the phone number.
When we come back from our break, I'm going to
tell you some not so good news about most sunscreens.

Speaker 3 (11:05):
Will be right back.

Speaker 6 (11:11):
Did you know that your skincare may be hurting you
more than helping you. I'm board certified plastic surgeon, Doctor
Arthur Perry. The foundation for looking good is clean, healthy skin.
So I've created a program that is so simple that
everyone can stay on it long enough to see real results.
It starts with an incredible skin cleaner called clean Time.

(11:32):
It's actually good for your skin. Protect your skin with
my Daytime SPF twenty cream in the evening, feed your
skin with my Powerhouse Nighttime Serum. Nighttime has Vitamin CNA,
antioxidants and skin brighteners. And if you like moisturizers, well,
I've created Soft Time with seramides and Vitamin D. Throw
away the bags of useless products and try Doctor Perry's Skincare.

(11:55):
Join the thousands of people whose skin is healthier. That's
doctor Perry's Skincare on Amazon dot com. And don't forget
to listen to my radio show right here on wo R.
Every Saturday evening at six pm.

Speaker 4 (12:08):
You are listening to What's Your Wrinkle with Doctor Arthur Perry.

Speaker 3 (12:11):
What's your Wrinkle? And what is your Wrinkle?

Speaker 6 (12:15):
I'm board certified Classic Church doctor Arthur Perry, and yes
I'm a real plastic surchion. That means during the week,
from Monday through Friday, I am in the operating room
or in the office doing lots of procedures. You know,
I'm one of those few plastic churchers that actually enjoys
doing filler procedures. A lot of plastic surgeons delegate that
to their nurses and others. I actually enjoyed. I think

(12:38):
it's a very artistic endeavor and it goes hand in
glove with performing facelifts and eyelid lifts on my patients,
and I even guide my patients through skincare. And in
my office we have a nurse doing microdermer Bridge in Manhattan. Now,
so you know, sunscreen is a very important part of

(13:00):
your skincare regimen. You know that because when you expose
your skin to ultraviolet light you prematurely age. You develop
skin cancers like basis cell carcinomas, squam a cell carcinomas,
even melanomas, and wrinkles. You know, you might not have
a skin cancer, but you won't like those wrinkles either.
So a good quality sunscreen is very important. I have

(13:23):
one called Daytime. You can get that on Amazon dot com.
It's an SPF twenty three. It actually says twenty on
a label, but it's a twenty three. You know, I
have not submitted this yet, but I'm going to to
the Environmental Working Group. That's a group, a consumer group
out of Washington, and they do a very good job

(13:45):
rating skincare. Companies like mine actually have to submit and
pay a fee, and I haven't done that yet, but I.

Speaker 3 (13:52):
Will do that.

Speaker 6 (13:53):
But interestingly, they came out with their lists just this
week and eighty percent of sunscreens that they rated, that
companies actually paid to have rated, were considered inadequate, inadequate,
or contained potentially harmful ingredients.

Speaker 3 (14:12):
Very very interesting. They said.

Speaker 6 (14:15):
One of the big problems was undisclosed fragrances. Those are
potentially allergenic or hormone hormone disrupting chemicals. They were in
about a third of all sunscreens. And one of my
pet peeves I've talked about this on the show.

Speaker 3 (14:33):
Before are the boosters.

Speaker 6 (14:35):
So I'm gonna give you a little hint if you
choose a mineral sunscreen, which I think are the safest ones.
Those are zinc oxide and titanium oxide. And by the way,
the Environmental Working Group says that those are the only
safe ones. They've reiterated what the FDA has said, So,
if you have let's say a ten percent zinc oxide,

(14:56):
I would expect an SPF of twenty. But you can
go and look at all these different sunscreens and you
get ten percent zinc oxide and lo and behold, it's
an SPF of thirty.

Speaker 3 (15:07):
How's that possible.

Speaker 6 (15:08):
It's not possible without the use of what's called a booster.
A booster is another chemical that is not a registered
sunscreen agent, but it does increase the SPF. Now that
doesn't mean it's safe, it doesn't mean the FDA has
approved it.

Speaker 3 (15:28):
And it also gives.

Speaker 6 (15:29):
A spuriously high SPF and it doesn't relate anything to
the UVA radiation. Oh, it gets a little complicated, doesn't it.
But the SPF only talks about UVB light, and there's
two different lights that are injurious to your skin. There's
UVA and UVB. They both cause wrinkles and they both
cause skin cancers. But the SPF only measures UVB. So

(15:54):
you could have a very high SPF and have no
UVA coverage. And that's what happens when you get boosters
because they don't cover UVA. So the Environmental Working Group
has talked about this rightfully so they've also talked about
many of the spray sunscreens. I think they must listen
to the show because I talk about these things almost

(16:17):
every week, and they've reiterated what I've said. So I
think I'll send them some of my sunscreen. We'll let
them rate it, and next year, hopefully I'll be on
that good list. But most of the sunscreens are not
on the good list. They're on the bad list. All right,
we've got Sondra on the line. Sondra, what can I
do for you? What's your wrinkle?

Speaker 4 (16:36):
Well, here's what happened. I was having lunch today with
my sister and she shows me a picture of Kyle
Jenner Chris Jenner, and we were both in dis police.
So I said, do you think I ought to called
doctor Perry and tell them what we saw? And here
you are bringing it up yourself, which says something very
great about you, because you said you liked what you saw.

(17:00):
I'd like to learn what you think. She looks to me.
Thirty is younger, not ten, not fifteen, thirty. I can't
get over it.

Speaker 6 (17:10):
Yeah, well, she had a good facelift, there's no question
about that. She's I think she's sixty eight. Now you
do have to always take with a grain of salt
the photos that you see, and even live video because
now there are these filters, so you have to be
careful about that. So we don't know if you're not
standing right next to her, exactly what she's had. But
there's no question that she's had a good facelift, and

(17:34):
there's there are a lot of very very good plastic
surgeons out there that do excellent work, and she's had that.
There are also a lot of less artistic plastic surgeons
out there that don't do as good a job. So
that leads us to the question Sondra of how people
should choose a plastic surgeon. And I always say that

(17:54):
the number one criteria criterion for choosing a plastic surgeon
is boardsification. Got to be certified by the American Board
of Plastic Surgery, So that's number one, right, And then
where the plastic surgeon has trained, where the plastic surgeon
went to medical school, where the plastic surgeon did his

(18:14):
or her residency, that's very very important. And then you
know when you have a consultation with a plastic surgeon,
I mean, there's other things that you can look for, Sondra.
You want to check with the state, make sure that
there's no significant malpractice suits and action by the state
against a doctor's license, because they can be licensed and

(18:36):
yet have disciplinary actions against them. And then you want
to also know why where they do their surgery. You know,
is it an accredited facility, is it a good hospital?
And then when you have a consultation with that surgeon,
you need to see photographs of that surgeon's work. If
a surgeon cannot show you photographs of their work, well

(18:59):
I don't think I'd go to a plastic surgeon that
that would not show their photographs. Because all of us
have have patients that are willing to show their themselves
to other patients. Now, I do have to say that
the majority of my patients will not let me show
their photographs to other patients, and I of course respect that,

(19:19):
but that still allows me to access the large number
of my patients that will let me show their photographs.
So and some say, well, don't put it on the internet,
but you can show in the office. And and you know,
some of the people have let me show their pictures
in my book. So so, Sondra, Yes, Chris Jenner had
an excellent facelift. I don't know who her plastic surgeon was.

(19:43):
If it were it was me. If it were me,
I can't say, But you know who knows who that is?

Speaker 4 (19:53):
I think as second one, that's what I read.

Speaker 6 (19:56):
I can't talk about her, no, I I honestly I
don't know, but certainly there are people you know that
have had excellent surgeons and and and in fact, I
think the majority of plastic surgeons, real board certified plastic
surgeons in the United States do excellent work. And when

(20:17):
I go to the meetings, and I went to the
Esthetic Society meeting a few weeks ago in Austin, Texas,
many plastic surgeons show excellent work. And it's it's a
testimony to the rigorous training. It takes six years to
become a plastic surgeon. I trained the residents. I helped
train the residents at Cornell and Columbia and at Rutgers,
and and those residents are the cream of the crop. Now,

(20:40):
they're the best of the best coming out of medical school,
getting those residencies, and then six years of a very
rigorous training program, and by the time they're done, most
plastic surgons are pretty good. So it's a testimony to
the system that we have in the United States. So
they're there. It answers your question sort of. I think

(21:03):
about christ I have.

Speaker 4 (21:05):
A friend who asked me who should she go to,
and I should doctor Perry, and that's that's the truth.
So soon you'll get a call from my friend.

Speaker 6 (21:14):
Well, thank you very much. I appreciate that. Thank you
all right, Sondra. It's a pleasure speaking with you. And
you know we should call you the honorary co host
of the show. I enjoy your questions. Thank you for calling.

Speaker 4 (21:27):
Thank you, hav a happy Memorial Day.

Speaker 3 (21:29):
Thank you you too.

Speaker 6 (21:30):
All right, I'm board sort of plastic surch and doctor
Arthur Perry, host of What's Your Wrinkle right here on

Speaker 3 (22:02):
We're going to take a short break. Now.

Speaker 6 (22:03):
Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten is the
phone number. We'll be back after these words. They say
that sixty is the new fifty, But while you may
feel and act fifty, the mirror doesn't lie. But that's
where plastic surgery comes in. I'm board certified plastic surgeon,
doctor Arthur Perry, and I love helping patients look younger

(22:25):
and better. If you've got sagging cheeks, jowls, and that
dreaded turkey gobbler, it might be time for a little
nip and a tuck. You look more rested and yes, younger.
With my short scar facelift and the artistic injection of
wrinkle filler or a laser peel, well, that might be
just what it takes to get you looking as good
as you feel. Let's sit down for an hour consultation

(22:45):
in my new Park Avenue office. Together, we'll come up
with a plan to help you look your best. Give
me a call at eight three three Perry and D.
That's a three three p E R R Y M D.
Check me out on the web at periplastic surgery dot
com and forget to listen to me doctor Arthur Perry
every Saturday evening at six pm right here on WOR.

Speaker 4 (23:06):
You are listening to what's your wrinkle with doctor Arthur Perry.

Speaker 3 (23:10):
What's your wrinkle? And what is your wrinkle? Maybe your
wrinkle is in your breasts? Could that possibly be?

Speaker 6 (23:18):
Of course, as we get older, as women get olders,
their breasts sometimes grows, sometimes get smaller, and usually sag,
and so cosmetic surgery the breast is one of the
more popular procedures that I do. And whether or not
it's a lift, it's an augmentation or reduction depends on
exactly what your issue is. And a lot of women

(23:40):
don't know. They come in they say, do I have
to have an implant if my breasts are sagging? And
the answer is are you happy with the size of
your breasts in clothing, in a bra? And if you are,
then you do not want an implant put in Because
implants are mechanical objects and they're associated with all sorts

(24:01):
of issues. They block mammograms, they're very good, they're helpful
to women both for reconstruction and for cosmetic surgery.

Speaker 3 (24:10):
But if you.

Speaker 6 (24:11):
Don't need an implant, you don't want an implant. So
many of the women that I see who are in
their fifties and sixties who have had children, have sagging
breasts and the size of the breast is just fine,
so they need a breast lift, which is also called
a mast to PEXI now all breast surgery is done
now as an outpatient. You come in in the morning

(24:34):
and you leave in the afternoon. You come in with
a B breast, you leave with a C or a
D breast, whatever it is, or you come in with
a double DP breast and you leave at the end
of the day with a B or a C, depending
on what you want. Or if you're having a lift,
it's the same exact size, you just look better. Procedures
like lifts are fairly easy to go through. There's a

(24:55):
remarkably little discomfort after lifts and reductions breast augmentation. With implants,
they hurt a little bit more and so usually require
a couple of days of pain medicine, but not so
with lifts and reductions.

Speaker 3 (25:09):
How do you make these decisions?

Speaker 6 (25:10):
You come in for a consultation, I take a look
at you, I take some photographs of you, and show
you pictures of other patients Like I talked to Sondra
about a few minutes ago. And then if you're interested,
there's still time before the bathing suit season starts to
have that operation, So give me a call. Two one
two seven five three eighteen fifty is the number in

(25:33):
the office. This is only a half hour show. Now,
it's too bad because I could talk forever, and no
one knows that he's sitting in the wo R headquarters
in Manhattan listening and he's about to play some music.

Which says shows over there.

Speaker 6 (25:48):
It is Perryplastic Surgery dot com is a website to
