Episode notes

In these new 'Industry Updates' we'll bring you up to speed about news and reactions to pressing and important issues. These episodes will be published ad hoc and as soon as we can get them out. They do not replace our regular Friday podcasts and will be titled differently to help differentiate them.

Chapter 2 of our Industry Updates was an unscripted recording hosting Dr Gabi Caswell, a Cosmetic Physician from Queensland, Australia. Our discussion revolves around the evolving landscape of cosmetic medicine regulations in Australia. We explore the importance of continual professional development, the implications of corporate models on patient care, and the responsibilities of practitioners to uphold safety and standards.

Dr. Caswell emphasizes the need for robust education within the industry and reflects on her extensive experience, sharing insights into past practices and future directions for ensuring high-quality patient care.

The episode also touches on the potential consequences of the changing legal environment on both practitioners and patients.
