Why PRP, Microneedling, and Lasers Improve Skin Quality, but Do Not Address Volume Loss or Lift - Duration: 12:15.
Thank you for your question.
You submitted a question with two photos and you're asking this question about the relative
benefits of microneedling with PRP stem cell with CO2 versus facelift for a concern that
you elaborate which basically seems to describe an issue with your skin quality in terms of
pores and you want to rejuvenate and restore glow.
You feel that you've been sagging and you're trying to, I think, really look for what is
optimal because interestingly, you have an issue with Botox® which you say causes you
to breakout.
And in the end of your question, you're talking about relative cost of everything
between PRP and microneedling versus facelift.
Were they to cost the same?
What would be optimal for you?
Well, I can certainly share with you my approach to this type of question which comes up pretty
much every day in our practice in different ways.
A little bit of background, I'm a Board-certified cosmetic surgeon and Fellowship-trained oculofacial
plastic and reconstructive surgeon.
I have been in practice in Manhattan and Long Island for over 20 years.
And helping people with facial aging has been a focus and an area that has been an area
of significant work in my practice for more than 20 years.
I think it's very easy to understand why you are asking these questions because certainly,
when people look at themselves when aging, they often look at the skin.
And essentially, the perception is that things are sagging.
And when you try to do research about what to do about these issues, you can be overwhelmed
from claims made by skin care products, like creams, for non-invasive products and procedures
to very extensive procedures.
So I help my patients kind of understand the strategy by first understanding what is the
anatomic issues and then try to separate the solutions or at least customize the solutions
specific to those issues.
So to begin with, understand that facial aging has two major components when you notice the
lines.
You mentioned you are concerned about the lines from your nose to your mouth and you
want those to be gone.
Well, facial aging is a combination of volume loss and the volume loss has to do with not
just thinning of the skin.
The skin is only about 2 millimeters in thickness.
So what else thins?
There's bone loss, there's fat loss, soft tissue.
There's a change in the architecture of the face with aging.
In addition, there's also laxity.
So the connections between the skin and the deeper tissues start to loosen and therefore,
there is some sagging.
So when you ask about the solutions, well, let's look at how do we approach the issues
first from the inside outward?
Well, to begin with, when I do an evaluation for a patient and when we do a consultation,
very often, one of the first things they do is they'll hold the mirror and they'll
pull their skin up and say, "This is what I want."
And what we call that is we call that the mirror lift and that's what a lot of people
do at home.
And understand that, it doesn't always mean that you're a candidate for a facelift.
But essentially, it does help you appreciate the relative elasticity of the skin as well
as the contribution of volume loss.
And what does that mean?
Well, when you lift upward, you're moving volume from the lower part to the upper part
of your face.
So one of the opportunities that I find for patients like yourself, and again, this is
in the absence of a physical exam as well as not seeing other angles of your face but
one of the things that I find that has been really significantly of benefit that's not
included in the question in terms of your choices is something called structural volumizing.
Now with structural volumizing, what we're doing is we're addressing up to a point
the volume loss that's related to both bone as well as fat and soft tissue.
By using long lasting fillers such as Juvederm Ultra Plus and Juvederm Voluma placed in a
very specific method at the bone level, we're actually able to restore cheek volume, chin
projection, jaw angle definition.
And what I think you'll find interesting is, when you're concerned about a particular
line, it's interesting to see the perspective change when you restore volume in the adjacent
areas.
So when you look at patients who've had structural volumizing, they may come in concerned
and you may notice that area that you're concerned about, the nasolabial fold.
But when you restore volume in the cheek and the jawline, it actually creates the effect
of looking like you added volume to the nasolabial fold when you actually didn't.
So consider that as one of the potential solutions for more of the global issue.
Now as far as understanding the differences between microneedling and PRP versus CO2 laser
and the face and neck lift, there is a very strong dividing line there.
A facelift or a face and neck lift is the repositioning of sagging skin as well as the
muscle connection between the skin and the underlying facial muscles called the SMAS
or superficial musculoaponeurotic system.
Basically, it's a surgical procedure to reposition and restore relationships so that
the jowls improve and the neck angle improves and the cheeks are elevated.
That's a face and neck lift or facelift.
Now when you describe the procedures microneedling, CO2 laser and PRP, we're talking about systems
to treat skin quality and to improve fine lines, wrinkles, discolorations.
That's the most superficial.
All those are good options but a proper examination is necessary to determine what works best
for you.
The photos are helpful but a proper examination will reveal the things that can actually be
beneficial.
Now a lot of times when people try to do the less invasive procedures first like by working
on the skin, from the outside only, they often get frustrated because they're expecting
more dramatic improvement out of a procedure that only treats a very thin layer and doesn't
treat the underlying layers.
I've seen this particularly in patients who are dealing with acne scars as well as
volume loss that want to try to smooth their skin of wrinkles, or like I said, acne scars.
But when you put volume underneath such as in the cheek area then the benefit can actually
be significant and the patients can be considerably happier.
So I think the take home message here is, you've missed one particular category that
can be of benefit, that can be useful in the overall treatment plan for you.
So understand that you are really comparing a skin procedure with the microneedling, laser
and PRP versus a surgical procedure that's much deeper, much more aggressive when you
talk about a facelift and face and neck lift and then add it to that and then maybe eliminating
the other options might be to do something like structural volumizing which can last
up to two years and really can help restore a lot of the balance in the facial aesthetics
and facial proportions.
So meet with qualified, experienced cosmetic surgeons and learn about these different options.
I think it's very important for you to just be aware and really get detailed understanding
of the outcomes, what can you expect.
You know, it's very routine for me to see patients who have tried all kinds of superficial
skin procedures and they finally then get to a point where they then seek me out as
a cosmetic surgeon and then when they hear about this strategy, it makes it a little
bit more sense.
And ultimately, we're able to communicate a level where we're actually achieving what
they set out to actually accomplish.
So it takes time.
So you have to meet with a doctor who spends time with you and learn about your issues
and review your photos in detail and really gets to the heart of what you like to accomplish.
It doesn't mean you have to do everything at once but at least, you'll be able to
develop a plan.
So I hope that was helpful, I wish you the best of luck and thank you for your question.

Akumal Mexico Turtles 🐢 & Tulum Glamping with Subtitles - Duration: 9:28.
Hey, how are you? Good morning! What's up?
Today we're about to head off to Akumal.
From there we're going to Tulum, Cozumel and Holbox.
Connie's family are still here.
We're going to be away for the whole week
going from place to place. So we've got to take the Laptop,
the camera, headphones and a good mouse so I can work!
We're excited!
I forgot my shoes! Because I was carrying lots of things.
We're here in Akumal
Hopefully we see some turtles!
What's up! What did you think about the turtles?
They're super cool right? Really beautiful.
So I need to explain more or less what it's like here. Otherwise you look on Tripadvisor
and you can see reviews saying
that people were scammed...
Oops I need to take off the zoom.
They found a baracuda!
I took the zoom off. I look like this because it's really hot!
I can't take the heat and I'm burning in the sun.
We've been in the sun for 5 days from
Chichen Itza to the cenotes;
well not being in the cenotes but walking around you burn.
The point is that there are lot's of reviews
in Tripadvisor that say people get easily scammed
and that there are new rules
according the environment secretary.
So yeah there are new rules which are to protect the turtles.
What you need to do is first bring your own equipment,
snorkel, if you have a life-jacket
you should bring it.
But if not it's 250 to rent, and I recommend you do...
100 pesos (for the life vest) I'm going to show you where.
But it the "touristy" part the guide is 250 pesos.
Behind me on the beach, behind the boats
is where tourists can go to swim without problem,
with their own equipment.
But if you want to pay 250 pesos
you have to go over there where you can see the people.
It costs 250 pesos for the guide
and the truth is that you could save.
The best place to rent equipment where it costs 100 pesos
for the life jacket
is over there at the "Akumal Dive Center"
There is where I would recommend
that you rent stuff. It's the cheapest and you don't need to be battling with other people.
I don't know if you saw but you have to use
a life jacket, the reason being is because
because
if you're kicking
you could hit the turtles. Actually there were 2 or 3 girls (without life-jackets)
trying to get their Instagram photos
and what I said to Connie:
You need to wear the life-jacket so you are flat
and so that you don't kick the turtles.
Also you can bring food and water, talking about water...
I'm super thirsty, it's really hot
so let's get some water.
OK, so the only thing you need to know is
enter the beach and go to the right, there you'll find the best spot
to see turtles and there aren't so many people.
Hopefully you'll see lot's of turtles, not too many people
and not too many tour guides!
Now we're off to Tulum.
We're here in Tulum.
What's the name of the place?
"Harmony Glamping"
We're in the place, Harmony Glamping, and I'm interrupting the check-in!
I've never been in a Glamping, I'm excited, it's really different.
It's as if...
How can I explain to you? I've only just found out it existed...
*GLAMPING*
So we're at a Glamping place, I've never been in one before.
It's really different, it's more or less
as if you were camping... but it's Glamping
because its more glamour.
It's cool because you arrive
and there are the tents made
all of the tents are put up,
with comfy beds.
There's a pool.
Basically it's something
like connecting with nature in a posh way
it's not bad! I like it.
So I'm going to show you what it's like.
I think you'll like it. Let me show you...
I hope you've enjoyed this video! It was really good
to see the turtles
and the place where we are now, the Glamping in Tulum.
It's super cool because
you don't feel like you're in Tulum,
or in the city in your routine.
What I'm trying to do is get up early to start editing
so then I can get all my work done for my job.
If you liked this video please subscribe!
If you have any ideas where to go.
Or you've been to a Glamping or a place like this

Any type of transportation can cause motion sickness.
It may come as a surprise, the disease progresses from a feeling of anxiety to cold sweat, dizziness and then vomiting.
Yachts tend to calm down as soon as they stop moving.
The more traveled on the vehicle, the easier it will be to adjust the motion.
It is possible to get rid of the disease as planned.
If you are traveling, find the seat where the movement feels the least.
Ships: Requires sitting in the cabine in front or in the middle of the train, or on the upper deck when on board so that the air is directly blown to the surface.
Airplane: Please have a seat on the edge of the wing.
Cruise: There is a seat near the front and next to the window. Face forward
Cars: Drive or sit in the front passenger seat.
If it is easy to get motion sickness.
Focus on the horizon or on a distant subject. Do not read books.
Do not smoke or sit near a smoker.
Avoid spicy foods, grease and alcohol. Do not eat too much.
Use an antihistamine such as meclizine, or one that contains dimenhydrinate for at least 30 to 60 minutes before traveling.
Drowsiness after taking medication as a side effect.
Consider scopolamine available in a sticky patch. A few hours before planning a trip, apply patches behind the ear for 72 hours.
Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine if you have health problems like asthma, glaucoma or difficulty urinating.
Eat dried cakes or drink a carbonated drink to help resolve the stomach if sick.

July Reading Wrap Up | 2017 - Duration: 12:59.
[music only]
Hey guys it's Trina and this is my July reading wrap-up. This month I did read a
total of six books and you saw what they were in the introduction there so if you
want to jump straight to my review of one of these books, or if you want to
skip over my review of any of them because you haven't read it yet and you want
to avoid any kind of impression, don't forget that I do include time stamps
down in the description so you can easily use that to navigate this video.
Before I get into my reviews of these books that I read this month I am
going to check in with my July TBR. I did have a TBR again this month and I had
six books on it. Out of these six books there were two of them
that I didn't even have the chance to read at all this month and so I'm not
going to hold them against myself. With Obsidian and Stars my reading buddy did
not get her copy in at all this month so like we just could not do the buddy
read. So I couldn't possibly do it, I'm not going to hold it against myself. I'm
taking that one off of this TBR. And then with The Lying Game my reading buddy and
I both got our copies in right at the very end of the month, like I just
got my copy on like the 29th. I don't read books in two days at this point in
my life so again, not even possible. Taking that one off of my TBR as well. So
out of these four books remaining that I could have read this month I did manage
to read three of these in total and I am almost like three-quarters of the way
through that fourth book, Bad Romance I just didn't finish it up before I needed
to make the time to film this video but you can expect to see that one next
month. Out of the six books that I did read and finish in July, four of them were
audiobooks and the other two I read in the print format. So again audiobooks
are kind of dominating my reading year in 2017. So let's get into the book
reviews now and as always I am starting with my lowest rated book and working my
way up to my favorite read of the month. And the lowest rated book that I read
this month was Flame in the Mist by Renee Ahdieh. This is the first book in a
YA fantasy duology and it is kind of a Japanese inspired
setting and our main character Mariko is a girl who she's in an arranged marriage
and then on her way to the Emperor's son to meet him and get into this arranged
marriage her convoy is attacked by this notorious Black Clan and she wants
revenge so she decides to dress up as a boy and infiltrate the Black Clan by
becoming one of its members. I gave it two stars because I just found this book
really predictable and pretty boring. I didn't enjoy this book but it wasn't
harmful and I wouldn't like un-recommend this book to you guys or
anything. It just didn't work for me. I feel like the entire plot and all the
twists in this story we're just so completely predictable. The romance was
unconvincing, felt very contrived. I had no connection with the main character. I
did like the setting but I didn't enjoy like the scope of this world or the
fantasy elements of it. If you've been watching my channel for a while you know
that I did not like her The Wrath and the Dawn duology. It just didn't work for me
and so I was very eager to see her next work and to see if I would like this one
better but unfortunately I just feel like I'm finding that Ahdieh's writing is
not something that works for me in the fantasy genre, in terms of her fantasies.
I don't think that her magic systems are well developed or well explained.
I never connect with her main characters. I don't like her romances because they
seem so contrived and it's all of this tell and not showing so I'm never
convinced of the relationships there. So like as a fantasy, as a romance it
didn't work for me. It's not that this is a terribly written or horrible book that
no one would enjoy, it just is not... for me unfortunately. The next book I read
this month was Juniper Lemon's Happiness Index by Julie Israel this is a YA
contemporary that is about a main character whose sister recently passed
away in a car accident and the main character is going back to school for
the first time after this and just kind of like dealing with the absence of her
sister. Her friendships are no longer the same, her relationship with her parents
is no longer the same because everyone is just dealing with this loss. This is a
debut novel and I had heard about it a few months ago and to be honest with you
guys I was not interested in picking this one up at all and the reason I did
pick it up is because it was the BookTubeAThon group book for this year
and I decided I'm not going to be able to participate
in BookTubeAThon that much but the one thing I can do is to read the book along
with them so I picked it up and I am glad that I did because I enjoyed this
book a lot more than I thought I would. I don't typically go for books that are
about grief or losing a loved one because I lost my mom as a child and I
don't really want to relive feelings of grief in a book because I have enough of
that in my life that I have gone through so I don't really want to relive it but
as for this book I actually thought that it handled the grief and the loss aspect
very well. It felt very genuine, very true. Of course my experience and
Juniper's experience is not going to match up with everybody's experience but that was an
aspect of this book that I really enjoyed. I also really enjoyed the
friendships in this book. They've got their problems, they aren't perfect, but I liked
how the book explored the ups and downs. The things I did not like about this
book were I just didn't like the romance. It's a trope I don't like. The
bad boy thing. I just - I just couldn't. And then I also did not like the way
that the mystery element of this book was tied in. A big aspect of this book
which is right in the book jacket summary is that Juniper finds a letter
from her sister to her sister's secret lover and so throughout the book she's
trying to figure out who this person is so that she can deliver that letter and
I was really into that mystery aspect, I really wanted to figure this out but
after having finished this book and really thought about it
I feel like that mystery element was a bit out of place. I do like how some
things happened but I was so wrapped up in this thing and then ultimately I feel
like maybe that shouldn't have been emphasized so much because this story
definitely had much more of a focus on grieving than this mystery. Next I read
The Conspiracy Of Us by Maggie Hall, which is the first book in a trilogy.
This is a YA series about just like this globe-trotting adventure and
mystery. Our main character finds out that she has ties to these ancient
secret societies and there's this race to find the tomb of Alexander the Great
because he supposedly left behind this legacy and there are these prophecies
involved and our main character finds herself
tied up in this. This is just a fun series.
I really enjoyed it. I rated it 4 stars. What kept this one from being higher
rated is there was just something a little bit off for me. Maybe it was a bit too
simplistic at times and I just wanted like a little bit more but I think you
would definitely like this if you liked The DaVinci Code or National Treasure,
stuff like that. It definitely has those vibes. I found this very enjoyable and I don't
have a lot to say about it because nothing about it really bothered me it
just like could have been a little bit more for my taste but I was totally here
for it and I definitely will be continuing this series. Next is
Unraveling by Sara Ella. This is the second book in the Unblemished trilogy.
This is a YA urban fantasy / fantasy series about parallel worlds and our
main character grew up in our world and discovers that parallel versions of it
exist and that she has a big role to play in one of them. This is basically an
epic tale about light versus darkness. I do know Sara Ella and her publisher sent
me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review but all these opinions
are my own opinions and I did enjoy Unraveling a lot more than the first
book and I think that's really because I find it very difficult to get into urban
fantasy series. Now that I know what this world and these characters are
about I was able to see the plot line more clearly in this one. I think that
the storytelling was a bit more streamlined this time, a little bit
less was thrown at you. I love where the story is going. I love how this book
ended. The things that I didn't like as much about this book were that I'm just
not a big fan of tons and tons of references to Disney songs, Disney movies,
musicals, bands. A lot of these references I'm unfamiliar with
so it goes over my head and a lot of the references that I am familiar with it
takes me out of the story because then I'm just thinking about Rapunzel or
Tangled or something because you know I'm getting the song lyrics in this book
and I thought that they were just a little bit too heavy-handed a bit too
frequent for my personal taste but if you love Disney I think you would
definitely enjoy that aspect to it. I know a lot of people are enjoying that
aspect to it it's just not personally my thing. I was glad to see a little bit
more diversity in the cast of this one, unfortunately I think that some of those
characters had a lot of stereotypes in terms of their development or things
that happened to them and you know that was a little bit of a
bummer but I can definitely see how Sara Ella's writing has grown in her second
book so I will definitely be continuing this series and reading that
third book because again this book just left me like... hoo! Next I read Lord of
Shadows by Cassandra Clare, which is the second book in The Dark Artifices trilogy,
which is the third series in her Shadowhunters overall universe. I really
enjoyed this one. I have loved seeing how Cassandra Clare's writing and characters
have grown throughout the years. I have read all of her Mortal Instruments and
The Infernal Devices series and I believe this series is definitely my
favorite of this three. There's a lot of diversity in the characters in this book.
We have a character who is trans. Transgender is something stated on page,
autism is something stated on page, bisexuality is something stated on page
and we have characters who have point of views in the book that fit all of these
identities. There's also a Hispanic character and of course there are gay
characters, we all know some of her ships from old series that have kind of
carried through to the other books. It's a bit long for my preference and some of
these relationships got into such geometric shapes that I don't even know
what to call it. What did we have, like a love hexagon or something at one point? I
don't know, like it got a little bit soap opera-y for my taste in the romance
department but regardless of that I just I think Cassandra Clare has come a long
way and I do really enjoy this series. And finally I read Hunted by Meagan
Spooner, which is a YA fantasy standalone retelling of Beauty and the Beast. This
is so true to a typical fairy tale type of world and village and legends and
fantasy element, and it's so true to the Beauty and the Beast story but it's so
different as well and it incorporates other tales and legends into this book
and kind of like combines them. I just really liked how it did it because it's
a story that you're familiar with but it's in a world that is totally its own
and these characters are totally their own. Beauty and the Beast retellings have
not been doing it for me lately but this one did.
I think my favorite thing about it is that the beast in the story is an actual
beast. He's like a wolf and bear and cat-like hybrid and I'm a little bit over
Beauty in the Beast retellings that turn the beast into just like a normal
dude who happens to be angsty and everyone thinks he's awful so I was very
pleased with how this one stayed true to the story and still made it its own thing
and it convinced me of a lot of the reasons why these characters actually
came to care for each other as opposed to just a really quick story. There are
some slower parts of this book, particularly in the middle where it just
seems like a long stretch of the plot not really advancing, but honestly I
didn't mind that because I was so hooked by this book. It was one of those reading
experiences where I'd get to the end of a chapter and then just want to read one
more chapter, and then just one more, and then just another chapter. Like, I was so
hooked by it that I didn't mind spending that time in the slow parts because I loved
living in this world. It was my favorite read of July. The reason this isn't a
five-star read is because I did at the end need a little bit more in terms of
the beast's curse. The beast's curse is kind of the most fascinating part of Beauty
and the Beast and I feel like these characters were just like like, 'oh well it's this thing.' The end.
Although I think this is a standalone, I secretly hope that Meagan Spooner will
do a little series of other fairytale retellings like set in the same world. I
would love that in this type of setting. I know a lot of authors do that kind of
a thing. like companion fairy tale retellings. I need that out of Meagan
Spooner and this series. Yeah, I just need that to be a thing. I would totally read
those books! So those are the six books that I read in July and what I thought
about them. If you guys have read any of these books and you want to talk to me
further about any of them we can definitely chat more in the comments. I
would love to know what your favorite read of July was and I will see you soon
with an August TBR video. Thank you so much for watching and I'll see you in the comments. Bye!

My VidCon17 Experience! | @fandommattersaf - Duration: 3:31.
"Why is there confetti?" someone has asked. Great question. So occasionally you'll
notice that a piece of - a single piece of confetti falls in slow motion. I
don't know if they can see this on the live stream. Occasionally a single piece
of confetti will fall in slow motion as if we're having the world's smallest
celebration. That's in fact - I think it's right here.
the reason for that is that last night there was much much more confetti and
there seems to be you can see there's there's one piece floating up in the sky
right there, Hank, do you see it? It's - oh my god, it''s so beautiful. It's like the bag in
American Beauty. I think these two pieces of confetti should be together. I feel bad. I think
somebody's going to catch it. Somebody's gonna catch it. Who gets the confetti?! Ohhh you do (it was me).
What's happening? VidCon 2017 is here. Hank, thank you for this, for making this.
This is crazy. How did you do this? Uh I had a lot of help. Okay. None of it was from you though.
Alright so I've gone to a couple of programming things so far today. I went to the Nerdfighter Gathering
which was exciting and John Green announced a new book and that was fun. That was down on the community
floor and now I'm up on the creator floor which is way more crowded than it
was last year I feel like. It is like mobbed and it's a little weird but I went to
speed networking which was kind of intimidating. You had two minutes to talk
to each person and give them your business card. I ran out of business
cards that were on me and so now I either have to go back to the hotel and get more or
deal without them for the rest of the day which I think it's going to be the
latter there. Um and I was so thirsty that I just ducked out and had to get water and
then I went and got some food from one of the food trucks yeah and now I'm
going to go to a creator panel and I'll check back in later.
I'm here with Hannah we just had our creator chat and she's also awesome. I am. And so are you! Thanks!
And it was great, yay. Okay quick vlog while I'm going to get food right now because
I haven't checked in much during VidCon. I have been quite busy for the most part
and everything has been lovely. I am sorry my video's so shaky right now but I
am on a mission to get myself some dinner. Um, so today I want to a lot of
really great panels. So there was one about how to do YouTube full time
and that one was more of like a workshop style so you turned around and talked to
the people around you and kind of gave each other tips and feedback on what
you're doing and how you can do it better and that was really great and
that was a hosted by the Internet Creators Guild and Rowan Ellis and I
loved. It was probably one of the most beneficial things I've been to today
*In the background* You can do it! Go go go go. You're wearing a white dress, be careful.
Uh yeah good call. You've got this girl.
Yeah. So close, so close.

DIY Bottlecap Keychain~ - Duration: 7:04.
Hey guys, thank you for taking an interest in my video :D sorry for the short to non-existent intro
First, take your pliers
and then bend over all of the edges
Now using your fingers, you're going to peel off the liner
Now using your fingers, you're going to peel off the liner
Now using your fingers, you're going to peel off the liner
Now using your fingers, you're going to peel off the liner
Now using your fingers, you're going to peel off the liner
Now using your fingers, you're going to peel off the liner
There's a cleaner and more efficient way to do this but I find this method more fun :^)
I'll put a link to a different method in the description box
Here, I'm scraping off the excess liner with a scissor (Anything sharp will do the job)
Now I'm painting the edges with white paint
Since I'm going to add glitter in
the middle, there's no need to paint that part
Now I'm adding mod podge in the middle
Any regular glue will do, as long as the glitter sticks well.
Ahh the fun part
GLITTER TIME ~
okay now I'm taking some hot glue
and gluing the marble thingy to the bottle cap
I don't have footage of me making it unfortunately
since I made it a while back but no worries
I'll leave a link to where you can learn to make it. It's reallyyyy simply and easy :P
I'm putting mod podge on the edge so that it'll SHINEEE forever
I made a hole for my key-chain by using a pushpin
and with lots of force, I wiggled my way through the metal
Since I forgot to paint the back white, I'm doing that now
You can skip this part, it's pretty boring
I didn't film this part but I just added a sticker I got from
an emoji sticker book and mod podged the back of the cap
I added a jump ring, which I got from an old key-chain
The final step is to add your key-chain
I got this from an old keychain as well
oops
VOILA, the final product :)
Thank you for watching!

Polycystic liver donated to the IPLC UQ for student learning - Duration: 1:39.
My name is Fiona Murray, and I'm 47 now and back when I was 25 I found out that I had
polycystic kidney disease. It was hereditary from my father's side of the family,
so from an early age I knew what was coming, but not quite as much as what happened.
but we've, as a family we've
learnt to just keep living.
When they removed the liver, it was 12.08 kgs.
I was really, really surprised that it was that big, and now I know why when I was on
dialysis, it squashed everything else and made me look like I was pregnant.
For about seven years, it was predominantly fairly large, and my day to day was not being
able to tie up shoelaces, or put on my nice heels without the boys helping me out.
I lived with the liver being 12.08 kgs for predominantly seven years
and it gained in size from probably 2004.
I had a look at my specimen, and the guys did a really great job in the mounting of it.
It's not pretty, but its lovely. I'm glad it's there and not with me.
Its important that families discuss the need for organ transplant.
Organ donation is an exceptionally unselfish gift.
