This week we are ditching the koolaid, poking the bear, and going unfiltered with industry pioneer ๐—ฆ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐˜๐˜ ๐—–๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น๐—ฎ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ป, ๐—ฃ๐—”-๐—– in Epidode 52 ๐™‹๐™ก๐™–๐™ฎ๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐˜ฟ๐™š๐™ซ๐™ž๐™ก'๐™จ ๐˜ผ๐™™๐™ซ๐™ค๐™˜๐™–๐™ฉ๐™š. Scott opened Dolce Vida Med Spa in 2010 after a career in heart surgery and a strategic move to plastic surgery. He saw the writing on the wall, and took a big leap to opening a med spa that has certainly paid off. Now, 4 practices later, heโ€™s orchestrated a lot of change in the industry!ย 

If you have used, heard of or thought about threads, you can thank Scott! He was integral in bringing threads to the US more than a decade ago, and heโ€™s one of the most respected thread practitioners and trainers in the country. Heโ€™s also the mastermind and founder of Dolce Symposiums which included ten action packed training events centered on threads and drawing in the biggest names in the country. He held his final one in 2022, but heโ€™s not slowing down.ย 

Who is Scott Callahan, and why do we all listen when he speaks up?

Scott is the expert trainer/educator for multiple companies including Suneva, Galderma, Harvest Terumo, Benev, MINT and Merz. He is a trainer/educator for Bellafill for the East Coast and was the very first injector of Bellafill in the state of Connecticut. He has been featured on multiple local and network television shows including a featured spot on The Style Network.

Heโ€™s still providing his training and expertise all around the US. ย If you know Scott, you know he pulls no punches. He tells you what he thinks, and he calls it exactly how he sees it. This episode is no exception! We talk about

  • Finding the right vendors and building mutual respect without drinking the koolaidย 
  • The controversy surrounding putting NPs, PAs and RNs on podium (and why would anyone say no!?)ย 
  • Taking care of your staff with money and perks if you intend to keep them โ–ช๏ธWhether ownership is the only path to long term financial success โ–ช
  • What makes a great provider and how we need to set the standards to do better for our industryย 
  • Just like everything Scott does, this episode is dynamic, informative and a must listen or watch!ย
