Episode 252 hosts Dr Isabella (Izzy) Sillar, a Cosmetic Physician from Melbourne, Australia.  Izzy is a unique injector who describes herself as a 'translator'. Instead of only working on her patients superficial concerns, she works with patients who are open to a holistic and 360 degree approach. This means that in addition to facial aesthetics, she explores their mental health, nutrition, sleep, exercise, libido, hormonal status and other important parameters of wellbeing. We explore Izzy's pathway into this way of working, her approach and the importance of working with other allied professionals to fully optimise our patients health.  To explore the courses mentioned in this podcast please head to this link   PATREON: Join our Patreon for on demand injectable & business education + global networking with other injectors in our 8 WhatsApp chats CHECK OUT OUR IA OFFERS: Click here to browse our latest partner offers and discounts!

Episode 251 hosts Pene Timberlake, a Nurse Practioner from Freshwater, Australia. Pene was one of our very first guests on IA (Episodes 3, 26 and 43) and is one of the country's most experienced nurse injectors.  We first learn about her progression from being a Registered Nurse to a Nurse Practitioner (NP). We get an understanding about what this qualification entails and why this was so challenging. We also learn about why the door for nurses wanting to become aesthetic NP's is now effectively closed. In her first appearance on the podcast over five years ago, we re-visit the question of what makes a good cosmetic injector. With the landscape and regulations having changed so much in Australia, we explore the deeper issue of whether the bar has simply been set too low to become an injector? We ponder whether the changes that have been made were actually very necessary and what else needs to be done to create a recognised 'injecting' speciality.  PATREON: Join our Patreon for on demand injectable & business education + global networking with other injectors in our 8 WhatsApp chats CHECK OUT OUR IA OFFERS: Click here to browse our latest partner offers and discounts!
