シャドーイング練習: How to Choose Which Skin Tightening Treatment is Right for You - 動画で英語スピーキングを学ぶ

All right

so many questions about how to tighten your skin we are

going to do a long video just breaking down the options

that are out there

so what we're talking about here are skin tightening devices some

of them tighten not just your skin some actually go deeper

and tighten your smasks and even tighten muscle

and they do for the most part lead to the increased

production of collagen making more collagen the problem is is depending

on you how much collagen you make how good your skin is at responding, the results with all of these devices can be unpredictable and that can be quite frustrating for individuals.

So let's break it down device by device.

Devices on the market that are considered skin tightening are Ultherapy, Thermage, Softwave, Exilis, and Emphase.

So starting with Ultherapy.

Ultherapy is micro-focused ultrasound.

It targets the dermis, so that's the second layer of your skin as well as the smaz.

It can penetrate quite deep into the skin and because of

that it can be really painful and there are rare case reports of dividine

or indentations that can be developed because it actually is destroying fat from the deep heat.

It's very painful because it penetrates so deeply

and typically people get topical numbing as well as pain medication orally when they have the treatment.

What's great about it is it's usually a one and done treatment, meaning you don't have to do a series.

People, if they get a nice result, might do it once a year to sort of lift and maintain a raised forehead, eyebrows.

What it's known for is lifting.

This is not going to help with fine lines, wrinkles, crepiness.

This is more of a lifting device to build collagen and really tighten things up.

It is not like a brow lift, but it does, and the individuals that respond well to it, does do a nice lifting.

The biggest complaint I get about it is that it hurts a lot and that the results are unpredictable.

Thermage is another option.

This is monopolar radiofrequency.

It only affects the dermis of the skin

and it is less painful than Ultherapy but when it works well it doesn't work as well as Ultherapy.

It oftentimes needs to be done multiple times.

You might do it every three to six months.

You might do it once a year.

What's lovely about it is it does have multiple hand pieces so it can be done on your body.

It can be done around your eyes.

It can be done on your full face.

It is time consuming but is not as painful as Ultherapy.

One of the newer kids on the block is Softwave.

This is high frequency focused ultrasound and it's in these parallel beams.

I've experienced it and for me it hurts more than Thermage

but less than L-therapy and it is going to build collagen in your dermis similar to Thermage.

I think the results with it are better than Thermage.

I think it hurts more than Thermage.

It is one of these things where people sometimes do one, they sometimes do three to really maximize their results.

It's a relatively quick treatment.

It doesn't take as long as Thermage, but it is uncomfortable.

Exilis is probably the most tolerable of the treatment options, but you have to do it in a series and you have to do it in a series of at least four.

It combines radio frequency with ultrasound and it's a wand that can really be done anywhere.

You can do it around your eyes, on your lips, on your face, on your neck and it does build collagen

but building collagen doesn't necessarily lead to a visible lifting

and tightening and I would say that that is sort of the complaint

of axillus of thermage and even soft wave if you really want

that lifting all therapy and M-phase are the two

that they're going to really get

that for you lastly another new one on the market is M-phase M-phase is different than the others

because not only does it have radiofrequency it also has high intensity focused electrostimulation

so they're going after your dermis by heating it

but they're also going after your muscle and building muscle by actually stimulating your muscles to contract

So what's nice about M-Face is that you see the muscle building results faster.

The collagen building for all of these takes at least three months.

The downside of M-Face doesn't hurt very much, but it is like Excellus in regards that you need to do at least a series of four.

There is a maintenance component where you might do your series of four

and then do it every sort of four to six months to maintain that muscle mass that you've built with the M-FACE, as well as continuing to build collagen.

Of the options out there, M-FACE is probably the most expensive and then Ultherapy.

And of the options out there, I think those are the two that are going to get you the best results, although the results, as I've already said, are unpredictable.

I find M-FACE the least unpredictable.

And what they showed in the study is when people do a series of four of M-Face,

they will see an increased lift in their cheeks with a building of their cheeks about one

and a half cc's per side, and then a decrease in their jowl by one cc per side.

And that's a pretty nice improvement.

They are able to lift your eyebrows, able to lift your cheeks, and they have a newer attachment that works on the fat underneath your chin.

All of these technologies don't have any downtime, meaning you can have them and immediately go out to dinner

or go back to work and you are not going to have changes to the top layers of your skin, except for your skin might look a little flushed.

Your results for them really comes down to your skin

and your ability to build collagen some of us are just not very good at

that it doesn't mean that you shouldn't do the treatment just know

that you're not going to get as good a result as

a 25 year old with big thick skin really able to

build collagen I'm a fan of them I feel like they're some of the safer options

that are out there I do M-Face on myself twice a year

and it really comes down to are you okay spending a lot of money for a subtle result

but the nice thing is they don't have significant risk profiles.

That doesn't mean that nothing can go wrong but things rarely go wrong

when you see a capable provider and they are typically safe for all skin types.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
