Inside Aesthetics

Episode 42 hosts Dr David Mabrie (Facial Plastic Surgeon from San Francisco, USA)

Having trained in otolaryngology (ENT surgery) and facial plastic surgery, David has re-invented his practice as an expert cosmetic injector.

We get an insight into how and why he left surgery, how he has structured his clinic and team, his methodology of 'Illuminate 360' & 'Fillers 101' and get some idea of how US-injectables differs from the Australian industry.
