Dr Patricia Barrera - 'The Injector Diaries (Chapter 12)' #201
Episode 201 hosts Dr Patricia Barerra, a cosmetic physican based in the city of Paraná, Argentina. Patricia joins us in the 12th 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'll 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. Patricia went to medical school in the USA before moving back to Argentina to work as a junior doctor in hospital. After one year of surgical training, Patricia discovered her passion for aesthetic medicine and has worked as a cosmetic physician ever since. This episode was completely unscripted and we thank Patricia again for her time and insights. Due to a planned guest being ill, Patricia very kindly stepped in at the very last minute and shared an amazing view into her country and an aesthetic market that we haven't covered yet on IA. We explore: Her background into aesthetics The region where she lives in Argentina, the people who live there How the lack of ethnic diversity in Argentina has become a national debate Who can inject in Argentina Whether being a doctor or a dentist is enough skill to begin injecting Whether aesthetics is regulated better in Argentina than other countries What products are available How she upskilled and became more confident in managing complications Her experience of attending the CMAC conference in the UK Her views on using ultrasound in aesthetics How to justify and say no to a patient Her business plans for opening a new clinic 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 or course that has improved your practice the most?

Dr Arthur Swift - 'Episode 200' #200
To celebrate our very special 200th episode, we were honoured to host Dr Arthur Swift (Plastic Surgeon) from Vancouver, Canada. Arthur has been at the forefront of injectables from the very beginning, starting in the early 1990's when there were no mentors or guidelines. Originally trained as a plastic surgeon, Arthur very quickly identified how transformative non-surgical treatments would be and self-trained himself. Over the past 30 years, Arthur has established himself as one of the most revered thought leaders in the injectable world. He has lectured in every continent, is a speaker for every injectable brand and has trained tens of thousands of injectors. We discuss: - Our joint IA X Swift Beauty competition (and announce the winner at the end of the podcast!) - Arthur's early years and the career crossroads he had to choose between - Arthur's first experence with Botox and the struggles he initially had - The influence that Leonardo Da Vinci had on his method of assessing and treating a face - How and why he uses callipers when examining patients - Balancing on label vs off label teaching and why we need both - Exploring his 'one up, one over' (gunshot) technique for treating the temple fossa - whjere it came from, why he chose it and how he's adapted it over time - 'Blending' fillers with saline or local anaesthetic – when and why he started doing this? - Hyaluronic acid vs biostimulant fillers and where these fit in his tool box - His view on the new toxins that are launching and how this may change how we practice including long-acting and short-acting brands - Whether Arthur uses ultrasound or not - How he approaches managing a vascualr occlusion - His views on the future of aesthetics PATREON: Join our Patreon for on demand injectable and business education in addition to global networking opportunities with other injectors SUPPORT THE PODCAST: Click here if you enjoy listening to IA every week and would like to contribute to supporting the podcast CHECK OUT OUR SPECIAL OFFERS: Click here to browse our latest partner offers!

Dr Steven Liew, Dr Sam Patel & Gareth Pepper - ‘Emface’ #192
Episode 192 hosts Dr Steven Liew (Plastic Surgeon, Sydney Australia), Dr Sam Patel (Business Entrepreneur, Chicago, USA) & Gareth Pepper (National Sales Director of BTL Aesthetics, Australia). We also welcome back Professor Sebastian Cotofana for a cameo appearance! In this episode we discuss a completely new device category in facial aesthetics called EMFACE by BTL Aesthetics. EMFACE opens a new chapter in how facial rejuvenation can be achieved. It combines High-Intensity Facial Electrical Stimulation (HIFES) energy and Radiofrequency (RF) technologies together. This unique combined technique (delivered simulataneously via three facial applicators) strengthens and tones specific muscles of the face whilst also improving the quality of the skin. We explore: - What EMFACE is & how it works - Why the technologies of HIFES & RF are combined - Who makes a good candidate for an EMFACE treatment - What the SMAS is, how it ages and why HIFES + RF are combined - Understanding frontalis aging: how stimulating the forehead area with EMFACE actually reduces wrinkles - Professor Sebastian Cotofana's views on EMFACE, the anatomy of the SMAS, it's relationship to facial ageing and how EMFACE fits into this equation - The intriguing possibility of using EMFACE for off-label treatments in patients with facial palsies or significant facial asymmetry - Whether EMFACE replaces the need for injectable treatments - How clinic and injectors can easily incorporate a device like EMFACE into their clinic - The beauty of an ‘operator-independent’ type treatment and creating the best patient experience This podcast was supported by BTL Aesthetics, a global innovator in aesthetic solutions. The views expressed are independent of the health care providers and do not represent the views of BTL.
