The Pretty and the Gritty with Jen Splane NP episodes

  • What's wrong with my tox?

    A patient asked me why her tox had stopped working. It hadn't. It was working exactly as well as it did the first time she had it, eight years earlier.

    This episode is about what actually changes, why more units at shorter intervals is the wrong answer, and why true resistance is far rarer than people think.

    Jen Splane is a nurse practitioner and the medical director of The Welle in Rothesay, New Brunswick. She is a clinical trainer for Galderma and a key opinion leader for Xcite. This is education, not medical advice, and the person to ask about your own face is still your own clinician.

    Question of the week is on Instagram: @jensplanenp

  • Your face, the science, and me

    Your face: the pretty parts and the gritty parts of aesthetics, aging, and women's health. Nobody asked, but here I am. I'm Jen Splane, a nurse practitioner in Rothesay, New Brunswick. I run a medical aesthetics clinic and I prescribe hormone therapy in primary care, so I sit in two rooms most people never see together: the one where you get sold things for your face, and the one where you're told your skin doesn't count. This is the show I couldn't find, so I made it. The Pretty is what you want. The Gritty is what's really going on under your skin, what the evidence says, what it costs, and how often it goes sideways. First episode, It's Not Your Skincare, Monday 22 September. Follow so it lands. Education, not medical advice.
