Episode 119 hosts Julie Horne (Registered nurse injector based inCape Town, South Africa)

Originally from Sweden, Julie is a registered nurse and cared for cardio-thoracic patients for many years before turning her attention to aesthetics.

In 2017 she exploded onto the world's injecting scene with her 'Julie Horne Lips' technique, showcasing her expertise in lip fillers. As a result of her exquisite work and attention to detail, Julie is a KOL for Galderma and has become a highly sought after speaker and educator.

She is the co-owner of the Swiss Aesthetic Institute and founder of the Julie Horne Academy where she trains doctors and nurses to attend her internationally acclaimed 'Lip Masterclass'.

We first discuss Julie's personal motivations and route into injecting before going on a seriously deep dive into lip fillers. We explore male vs female treatments, the consultation and assessment, techniques including 'tenting' and 'lollipops', needle vs cannula, tricky lips, the issue of filler migration and much, much more!
