Just drink water with a bit of sugar a ND a small pich of salt…. lazy Americans
"med spas, SURGE"….a true sign of a failing economy….bidenomics was wrong!😭…….what?…a surge, is a good thing?🤔…😅🎉😉👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I get that these lady's were scammed by these procedures but did they seriously think that injecting foreign substances is promoting good health?🤨
It is written……Vanity, vanity all is vanity. It always amazes me the things some people will do just to chase youth. And yet it always seems to backfire, growing old gracefully seems so much better.
This seems like a perfect job for big brother. Come on now…theres still a few alphabet combination acronyms left…you can regulate this and i think vast majority of folks would say thats a good thing to regulate…
What a Jabs are you serious 4FS,,,
Cosmetic procedures that are not medically needed seem to lead to negative health issues. In countries where profit is more important than people, it's not surprising the risk(s). How scary
Omnia vanitas.

I just stay away from the med spas period.
Just eat healthy and drink water, if you can afford these spas you can afford high quality food
People’s unbridled desire to look younger, feel younger, and be more fit (despite already being there) is nauseating. Instead of prolonging their life, many cut it short. SMH.
As a retired nurse , I get the creeps when I see the things these places push….but if you don’t have any medical knowledge it’s easy to make wrong decisions…
Anytime you break the surface of the skin you risk infection from everyday bacteria that lives on the surface of your skin especially if you are not someone who regularly has cuts and other wounds from physical work because people like mechanics loggers railroad workers metal fabricators and so on develop an immune system to deal with constantly having open wounds. Then you also have to consider the possibility of nastier bacteria encountered in a Medical type setting but without the true Medical System of disinfection of everything from the beds to the rooms and everything in them
The unworthy price of vanity.
RN’s are advertising over the radio.
I have terrible, unsightly melasma on my face for the last ten years. I’m so aware of how they look that it has paralyzed my social life. I don’t even want to take the trash out during the daytime or go to the store. I googled options and researched thoroughly the procedures and expected outcome. I chose West Medical here in Los Angeles based on the outcome of my research, reviews and my initial consultation. If the melasma wasn’t on my entire face, I would not consider any procedure at all.
Warning!!’ Big pharma doesn’t make any money!! Not everything works for everyone, same as all those side effects of meds that keep you sick so big pharma can make all that money!
So when someone dies all of a sudden they tell us what WE need to d to prevent it and not just get rid of the crooks who just want money
Thank u
This is just stupid.
Injected over a hundred times makes you a junky.
Really stupid to go to MED SPAS.
Dang, glad I don't like needles. Arg, getting a tooth pulled, get injections, no sir I don't like needles.

As an Army vet who was NOT a medic, we gave IV's as part of training in the field when we hadn't showered in days/weeks. Literally, people got "poked" sometimes 10-15 times total in both arms and wrists because the person giving it was not good at it. None of our people ever got infected or anything described in this video. What the h3ll are these people doing?!
the human body doesn’t need this
All injections should by meds.
Sooo what you’re really saying there is an injection that resolves fat.
I can't imagine a spa convincing someone they need an electrolyte infusion. Just drink a quart of Gatorade then.
These med spa aren’t really ran by physicians. They are ran by mid-level providers who have a physician as the medical director, but they’re often not on-site to directly oversee “treatments”.
100 shots or random crap made you sick? no way!
You can't fix stupid.
People stop getting lasers. Lasers destroy collagen and the facial fat on your face. Over time you will have complications and get that sunken face look. Stick to facials and light chemical peels
as my grandma use to say if it sounds to good to be real than it’s snake oil it’s praying on woman who want a quick fix or just a day to relax plus some clinics are not very sterile
"I did get this because I'm a sheep."
people are so stupid… i dont have sympathy
Capitalism is evil. Wow!
The only way you feel complete is getting knowing Jesus Christ.
