Clinic Conversations Elissa O'Keefe and Cate Scolnik

Let's face it, investing in laser and IPL equipment is not for the faint of heart.


Equipment can often be more expensive than buying a couple of new cars, or half another home! So how do you grow your clinic and get quality equipment without lying awake at night worrying about how you're going to fund it?


Join us to hear from Hiba Leondis, a qualified Beauty Therapist, Laser technician, Beauty educator and Post Graduate trainer.


After a background in Applied Science and Health Management, Hiba found her passion for dermal therapies led her to the Beauty and Laser industry. She then became a qualified Trainer and Assessor with a desire to share her experiences and knowledge with others.


Hiba is now the lead trainer at LaserAid and she'll share how to grow your clinic while maintaining your financial sanity.
