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.

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.

Episode 250 showcases our hosts Dr Jake Sloane & David Segal.

Fresh from our Easter break, we first learn about Dr Jake's trips to New Zealand with Allergan, London for the ACE conference, France to visit the Allergan filler manufacturing plant and Moanco for the AMWC conference.

We then discuss our main topic and the fallout of the latest regulatory changes announced in Australia. With cosmetic clinics now banned from advertising their prices, their menu of services (that involve using medications) and before & afters photos, where exactly do injectors go from here?

Despite all the noise and pushback from the injector community, we ponder whether this is exactly what is needed. A redo, a rethink and a return to the medical model.

Episode 249 hosts Jessica Maggs (Nurse Practitioner & Board Member of the Cosmetic Nurses Association, Melbourne, Australia) & Dr David Kosenko (General Practitioner & President of the Cosmetic Physicians College of Australasia, Perth, Australia)

The regulations for injectors and cosmetic clinics are rapidly evolving in Australia - so fast in fact that some of the topics discussed in this episode have already been surpassed by new guidelines released on March 7th 2024. So we will tackle the changing regulations in two (or more!) parts.

In Part 1 we explaining the background to why these changes are happening. We get the views of two of the main colleges who represent the vast majority of injectors - registered nurses, nurse practitioners and cosmetic physicians.

They have pioneered the use of human bone marrow stem cell technology both for aesthetic and dermatological uses, utilising exosomes and growth factors respectively.
