We need to educate patients, tell them the truth & manage their expectations
The best patients, those you can establish enduring trust and relationships with, are the ones who appreciate being informed. They want to know that you've got their back, especially in case of any complications. They value your expertise and see you as a reliable partner in their aesthetic journey.
On the flip side, providing vague information about potential side effects can make you appear unprepared. And if a complication arises, the patient's initial reaction often goes something like, "I wasn't properly informed that this could happen."
I know lots of injectors are anxious telling patients about side effects because it may increase their worry, but in fact, when they’re informed correctly, usually the opposite happens.
That's why I've teamed up with Nurse Chelsea, who's a strong advocate for patient education. Together, we'll dive deeper into this subject, equipping you with the tools to confidently build relationships and discuss potential side effects in a way that's far from intimidating.

The truth about extreme aesthetic Instagram trends. The dangers, risks & 'alienisation' of faces.
Fox, eye, pixie nose, butterfly lips – these trendy treatments have certainly sparked some ethical debates among us medical injectors. But why is that? When Dr. Alex contacted me about this topic, I instantly knew it was podcast-worthy material.
Seeing these potentially risky trends racking up thousands of likes on Instagram and TikTok can leave us feeling uneasy. It's natural to wonder if patients genuinely desire these alterations. Are we missing something here?
Personally, I've always believed in timeless beauty that stands the test of time. But what's driving patients to chase after these procedures? I reckon Instagram trends like these showcase a sense of power, pushing the boundaries of what fillers can do. As we are aware social media rewards the extreme, but does this translate to real life too?
In this episode, Dr. Alex and I dive deep into the risks of these extreme treatments, dissecting the motivations behind them. We also address a crucial point: why the results you see on Instagram aren't necessarily what you'll get in the long run.
Cultural influences play a major role too. We'll discuss how aesthetic ideals differ across cultures and how these trends can be impacted by cultural norms.
It's a thought-provoking conversation that touches on some controversial and much-needed topics, I know you’re going to love this one.

‘We’re NOT changing people’s faces’ - Why society needs to stop judging those who get aesthetic treatments.
This topic has long been overdue for discussion, and when Nurse KB entered my podcast competition, both my team and I were aware that his chosen topic would be a compelling one. In this episode, I have a conversation with Nurse KB about the prevailing stereotypes surrounding aesthetic treatments. Despite the increasing intensity of the push towards body positivity and inclusivity in 2023, why do patients still experience concerns about being judged for opting for injectables?
Rather than desiring a completely transformed appearance, many patients simply wish to regain their own familiar look. During our discussion, we explore the importance of effectively communicating this message to patients and society at large. We emphasize that opting for injectables does not mean adopting the infamous "duck lips" or a frozen botox face. When performed correctly, it can lead to renewed self-confidence and subtle adjustments that help patients feel more like themselves again.
If your patients express worry about being judged by their peers for getting aesthetic treatments, if they’re worried about ending up with ‘duck lips’ or feel getting injectables will make them ‘vain’ then this episode will help you to understand how to educate your patients on why and how we can achieve subtle, unnoticeable results.

Fueling Business Growth & Empowering Employees.
I’ve been so looking forward to sharing this conversation I had with Dr. Felix Bertram. He’s an extraordinary aesthetics business owner and entrepreneur, and a 'shark' on Switzerland's Shark Tank. Dr. Felix shares his insights on empowering individuals in the aesthetics industry to start their own businesses and get comfortable with risk-taking, to develop a business mindset.
We also touch on leadership as Felix tells me that being a good leader in aesthetics comes down to owning and learning from your mistakes, empowering and trusting employees, streamlining processes and choosing to work with the right people…it’s not just about ‘sympathy and vibes’ as Felix puts it, it's about fostering an environment in which employees feel empowered, happy and goal orientated to achieve success.
If you’re wanting to start your own business in aesthetics, make the move from healthcare, or are an experienced aesthetics business owner looking to scale, then this conversation is going to help you decide on the steps you need to take to achieve your goals.

The Power of Goal Setting & Discipline: The transformational trick Dan used to build his Aesthetics Empire & Become The ‘Face’ Of Canada.
He’s one of the greatest aesthetic injectors in Canada, but how did he get here and what drives him to succeed? Dan Julien NP, also known as Danesthetics has a large Youtube following and social media presence, a thriving clinic in Ottawa and one of the most interesting minds I’ve come across when it comes to achieving dreams and goals. In this conversation I get inside the mind of Dan. How did he not only become one of Canada’s best injectors as he strives to become the ‘face’ of aesthetics in Canada, but at the same time become an incredible squash player and business owner. Dan tells me it comes down to setting transformational goals, holding yourself accountable, staying disciplined and applying this mindset to multiple areas of life. It’s a fascinating conversation that will definitely get you questioning your goals in life, whether you’re going to achieve them and if not…what you need to be doing instead.
