This week on the Dr. Nou Show, we featured a patient who proved that “stubborn fat” doesn’t care how skinny you are. Despite being in great shape, she struggled with a persistent double chin that just wouldn’t budge.

Our solution?
A high-tech double treatment device:

• Monopolar Radio Frequency: Deeply heats the tissue to tighten and firm.

• Targeted Ultrasound: Using AI-controlled precision to melt away local fat cells.

The Result: After just 3 sessions, she has the sculpted jawline she’s always wanted.
No downtime, just amazing results.

✨ Happy Patient = Happy Friday

Why I prescribe “Miles” alongside “Modalities.” 🏃‍♀️💉

• For my Patients:
True skin health isn’t just about what we do in the chair at my clinic. It’s about circulation, mitochondrial health, and the glow that only comes from a disciplined lifestyle. As I train for my next triathlon, I’m reminded that physical activity is our greatest tool for longevity. We don’t just want to look younger; we want our cells to function younger.

• For my Fellow Doctors & Trainees: In my training sessions, I often talk about the science of skin quality. But as physicians, we are also the primary examples for our patients. Integrating sports medicine principles into your aesthetic practice doesn’t just improve patient outcomes—it builds a brand rooted in holistic excellence.

Friday Check-in:
How are you moving your body this weekend to support your longevity?

Did you catch the latest episode of on Via (DSTV)?

We are so excited to share the incredible results of the Skin Coring procedure featured on the show. This patient struggled with loose skin and a loss of elasticity, but look at the transformation.

Skin Coring (Scarless Skin Removal) is changing the game for facial rejuvenation by:
• Physically removing tiny cores of skin to tighten the surface.
• Stimulating a massive collagen boost.
• Delivering a smoother, firmer look—without the scars of a traditional lift.

Witness the science of aging backwards.

I will share some video clips of the procedure soon

But remember:
* This treatment can only be performed in a doctor’s office/ clinic under strict medical supervision
* Anaesthetic injections are required.
* Healing period: 5 - 10 days
* Results may vary and amount of sessions needed.

Medical Monday - let’s get futuristic!
let’s talk about the Collagen Bank

Most people wait until they see a problem to “fix” it. But in aesthetic medicine, the most natural results come from maintenance, not transformation.
By stimulating collagen and relaxing overactive muscles before they create permanent changes, we keep your skin in its prime for longer. It’s not about changing how you look; it’s about protecting the “you” of right now.

Collagen Banking is the proactive strategy of stimulating your body’s natural collagen production now to build a reserve for the future.
We aren’t just changing how you look today; we’re protecting how you’ll look in ten years.

With 10 weeks until the Ironman African Champs, the volume of training is cranking up.


Here is what the reality of a “comeback week” looks like after travel disrupted my flow:

- The Routine: Most days involve a double session—a bike or run before work, and a swim or run/bike session after work. (And supposed to get strength training in somewhere)

- The Adaptation: It’s amazing how quickly the body adjusts to early alarms and high volume if you stay consistent.

- The Secret Weapon: Sleep. If you aren’t sleeping, you aren’t recovering.

- The Setback: Had a bad day on the bike yesterday. Nutrition errors meant I couldn’t finish my race. Took a caffeine gel in very hot weather, which previously affected me badly!! Stupid mistake on an important day.
It stings, but that’s the best fuel. Disappointments aren’t setbacks; they’re lessons in planning and motivation to come back even sharper.

Rest, recover, and go again. 🛌💤
