Ep 148 Integrating Skin Care with Injectables | Dr Danae Lim & Nicky Lurie

Episode 148 hosts Dr Danae Lim (Cosmetic Physician) & Nicky Lurie (Skin therapist) who both work at Shape Clinic, Sydney. During this episode, we discuss how the expertise of skin care intersects with injectables. Whilst some injectors have extensive knowledge in the field of skin anatomy and cosmetic ingredients, the majority aren't trained in this important speciality. We cover: - How skin care & injectables go hand in hand - How poor skin quality affects the outcomes of injectable - How practitioners might integrate skin care into their practice - What the limitations of injectables are and where can skin treatments can optimise patients overall aesthetic outcomes - Why traditionally has there been such a disconnect between skin therapists and injectors? - What are the most common skin concerns that are poorly treated with injectables? - Why patients find the skin such a mystery? How can we educate people better? - How to discuss sun protection with injectable patients - The art of working as a team to maximise your patients goals  00:00 Introduction 01:04 Meet Dr Danae Lim & Nicky Lurie 04:55 Why Skin and Injectables Must Work Together   10:59 Building a Team Based Approach to Patient Care   18:27 Common Skincare Mistakes and Product Overload   26:25 Education Over Selling in Aesthetic Practice   33:29 Why Injectables Cannot Fix Skin Quality Alone   41:37 Matching the Right Treatment to the Right Problem   48:53 Managing Aging Skin and Setting Realistic Expectations   52:09 When to Refer for Surgery Versus Skin Treatments   61:45 Importance of Sun Protection and Prevention   68:49 Treatment Planning for Severely Sun Damaged Skin   76:38 Preparing Skin Before Surgery for Better Outcomes   80:09 Role of LED Therapy and Post Treatment Recovery   86:34 Key Lessons on Holistic Care and Patient Trust ALL IA LINKS & CONTACT INFORMATION
