0:00
So it's completely sealed except for that. Right
0:02
Looks like that little suture. We'll just leave that. Everything else looks really good
0:10
So what I'm going to do is we're going to do a little cupping. What do you know about cupping
0:15
You ever see it? Yeah. He did it? Yeah. Okay. He did it once on me
0:20
Yeah. It's not that you need it, but I just like to kind of
0:23
You just want to make a video. That's right. I like to kind of introduce some different things
0:29
that's fine. That's fine. So I do it dry and then I do it with lotion. When I do it dry
0:36
basically what I'm going to do is I want to let this knee go relatively straight. So the skin
0:41
is looser. You just relax your leg. I squeeze the cup. I stick it on and I just create that
0:49
little bit of suction to create a little bit of lift, right? And so what this lets me do
0:55
if you can come down and kind of catch this from the side, yeah, is that a little bit of a little bit of lift
1:00
lets me see that bubble. And so if there's a real noticeable kind of dimple or restriction under
1:07
the incision, it would show up there. The bubble wouldn't be smooth. It would dip in in the middle
1:13
And so I go vertical where the skin is real loose, right? And I can just kind of wobble it. I can
1:20
lift it I never leave it on long enough to create any bruising or discoloration I just want to perforate at least the capillary bed with blood flow and create a little bit of lift
1:33
When I get down to the tight part here, it's just not going to let me grab much
1:39
No, it's very tall. So that's usually where I kind of, I might play around with a couple different angles
1:44
I might let the leg bend a little bit, but I'm still not going to get on there
1:49
So that's where you just keep recording. I'll get a little bit of lotion
1:57
And this is just like a paraffin wax base lotion. So it's not like bio-freeze or anything
2:04
I'll mix it around. I'll create my suction off the incision. And then I'll work in kind of around the edges and the sides
2:15
So it's still got that suction, that bubble. But now I'm kind of getting over onto the incision a little bit more
2:25
And so if we can loosen up some of that skin, the best that I could say we do is maybe loosen the superficial layer of skin from the connective tissue below it
2:35
You know, but massage is all about pressing. This is the only way I can create that lift
2:41
And so we'll do two to three minutes. It could be done at home. I buy these on Amazon for like three to five bucks
2:48
and the lotion is just a couple dollars. All right
