Episode 215 showcases our hosts Dr Jake Sloane & David Segal

David was recently invited to talk at the Merz Nurse Academy in Sydney. In this episode he and Dr Jake discuss an overview of his presentation, covering some of the key trends that he sees in the Australian industry.  We discuss:

• How average filler volumes usage is down & the reasons why this might be
• The impending regulatory changes expected by AHPRA & how this might change the nurse/doctor scripting process
• Whether this is the start of even more regulatory changes in the future
• The growing trend for biostimulatory treatments on the body as well as the face
• A new liquid biostimulator product currently being trialled in Australia
• Competition between various clinic models including chains, boutique clinics & independent nurse injectors
• A possible scenario where nurses who recently set up independently decide with hindsight to re-collaborate with doctors & chains again
• Whether a 'We Work'-type shared space for injectors might be a future working model
• How the current economic pressures are impacting clinics & our patients spending habits - and why this makes it imperative to truly understand how your business is running
• Patient expectations and exceeding their expectations
• What your X-factor is & why personal branding is the key to getting the patients you gel with
• Understanding the patient journey
• Why building a strong 'team' around you is so vital
