Ep 223 Our First Ever Live Podcast - A23 | Special Edition

Episode 223 is a little bit different... instead of our usual episode style with one or two guests, we go big!  A fortnight ago Dr Jake & David appeared at one of Australia's biggest conferences, 'Aesthetics'. This annual meeting is convened by Dr Steven Liew, a renowned Plastic Surgeon and previous guest on IA on episodes 64, 126 &192. The goal of the Aesthetics conference is to disrupt the current way of doing things and to explore innovative ideas on how to improve safety and efficacy for both industry professionals and patients.  This year was no different and Dr Jake & David were invited to also do something totally new - a live podcast with a large selection of guests - in only 23 minutes! The brief from Steven was simple, 'Make people think'. Our expert injector panel consisted of: Dr Lee Walker Dr Tapan Patel Dr Rungsima Wanitphakdeedecha Dr Dalvi Humzah Dr Zunaid Alli Dr Beatriz Molina  00:00 Introduction 01:02 Ultrasound Course Discount   02:57 What Is A23 Conference   04:55 Why We Were On Stage   09:10 Panel Format and Time Pressure   10:59 Live Panel Begins   13:31 Fillers and the Idea of Lift   14:52 KOL Meaning and Bias   18:27 Sterility in Live Injecting   21:18 Bulk Buying Ethics Debate   26:25 Threads and Patient Selection   30:08 Do Fillers Really Differ   33:29 Who Should Be Allowed Inject   36:15 Post Panel Debrief   38:45 KOLs and real opinions   40:13 Bias and echo chambers   41:37 Radical transparency on stage   42:46 Multi brand KOL rules   47:06 Tribalism and rep pressure   48:53 Using other products   52:09 Bulk buying ethics   61:45 FOMO and business acumen   64:07 Stock control and expiry   68:49 Wrap up and next year ALL IA LINKS & CONTACT INFORMATION
