Episode 315 hosts Dr Konstantin Frank (Aesthetic Doctor from Regensberg, Germany)

In 'The Tox Talks' episodes we feature expert injectors who have significant experience in using botulinum toxins. These episodes explore our guests experiences using particular brands, the evolution of their injecting techniques and we get special insights into the subtle nuances of getting the best out of toxins.

In Chapter 10 we talk about Letybo (made by Hugel, Korea) and how to get the best out of it. We discuss the unique properties of Letibotulinum toxin including its precision and reduced diffusion, which make it particularly effective for areas where precision can't be compromised.

Konstantin shares his expertise on optimal injection techniques, addressing common challenges and how practitioners can achieve the best results. The conversation also delves into the importance of combining treatments for comprehensive aesthetic outcomes and the business implications of using different toxins.

Episode 307 hosts Hayley Anderson (Registered Nurse from Perth, Australia)

This is the 4th chapter in our mini-series called ‘Disasters & Solutions’. Here we look at some of the unusual, difficult or outright disasterous outcomes for patients caused by injectables. We speak to the injectors who managed the case and go through what happened, step by step. We’ll learn about what might have been done to prevent the problem and what injectors can do in their own practice to be safer practitioners.    

In Chapter 4, we discuss Hayley's experience (on the other side of the needle as a patient) when she had a temple treatment with a hybrid blend of Radiesse, Belotero Revive and saline. She suffered a significant vascular occlusion and we hear about what happened, how it was managed and the lessons learned from the incident.
