Episode 196 hosts Amy Lynn, a board-certified aesthetic nurse specialist from Philadelphia, USA.

Amy joins us in the 11th Chapter of our series called 'The Injector Diaries'. These episodes feature in depth conversations, stories and experiences from injectors around the globe.

Each injector brings their own unique take on things and we'll showcase every level of type of injector, from newbies to masters. We'll explore how and why they chose to inject, why they favour using certain products, look under the hoods of their clinics and aim to inspire our injector listeners.

Amy previously worked in the hospital-setting for over a decade and focussed on trauma, paediatrics and cardiac care. After she had five children, she found her passion and trained in facial aesthetics to make her dream of opening a medical spa come to fruition. She is recognized as a National GAIN Trainer & Key Leading Mentor (Galderma). She founded her own training academy, Glo Academy, where she upskills injectors from all over the USA and also runs the Coast to Coast (C2C) Cadaver course.

We explore:

• How Dr Jake & Amy became friends
• What Amy's background was & how she became an injector
• Her thoughts on how important the personality of an injector is
• Amy's approach to a consultation
• How Amy recruits & trains her injector team
• What Amy thinks of trend in filler dissolving
• What her Glo Academy is
• The importance of cadaver workshops for injectors
• Going further when teaching injectors: branding & personal development

We also ask every injector in these episodes: 

• What is your number one toxin and why? 
• What is your number one filler and why? 
• What is your go to cannula make/size and why?
• Aspiration - yes or no?
• What's been the best book or course that has improved your practice the most?
