Episode 204 hosts Melissa Isaia (Co-founder of Juvae and the CNA - Cosmetic Nurses Association) & Nicole Schmid (Registered Nurse, Co-founder of Juvae & the CNA)
Melissa & Nicole created 'Juvae' back in 2008, an all in one solution for the training, business support and connecting of nurse injectors to clinics. At that time, the Australian injectable market was very immature. The chain clinics hadn't yet formed, social media was in it's infancy, hyalase wasn't a thing and in many ways, the aesthetic world was far simpler.
In Chapter 7 of 'The Business of Injecting' episodes, we explore:
- Melissa and Nicole's backgrounds
- How and why they created Juvae
- Get insight into how Juvae assesses 'competency' amongst their injectors
- The dilemma with new student nurses specifically training to become injectors
- What the CNA is and why Melissa and Nicole helped found it
- What happens behind closed doors when bodies like the CNA meet with with the regulators, AHPRA
- The future of injecting and the how the market might evolve over the next few year in Australia
