Inside Aesthetics Samantha Shepherd - 'The Injector Diaries (Chapter 13)' #209
Episode 209 hosts Samantha Shepherd, a nurse practitioner from Atlanta, USA.
Samantha joins us in the 13th Chapter of our series called 'The Injector Diaries'. These episodes feature in depth conversations, stories and experiences from injectors around the globe.
Each injector brings their own unique take on things and we showcase every level of type of injector, from newbies to masters. We'll explore how and why they chose to inject, why they favour using certain products, look under the hoods of their clinics and aim to inspire our injector listeners.We thank Samantha again for voluntering very last minute and with no preparation to do this podcast with us! We discuss: - Samantha's background and training - Her previous career in medical device sales - and how this helped her feel comfortable talking about pricing- Treatment planning with patients and the concept of 'good, better and best' - The power of word of mouth referrals and getting to know your local community - How and why Samantha started her own clinic space - How to really stand out and create a bond with your patient - Why passion as an injector is the key to success
We also ask every injector in these episodes: - What is your number one toxin and why? - What is your number one filler and why? - What is your go to cannula make/size and why? - Aspiration - yes or no? - What’s been the best book, course or similar that has improved your practice the most
