Transforming Bodies Podcast

We chat to Anita East, a Cosmetic Nurse Practitioner, who explains the difference between a Nurse or a Nurse Practitioner who is required to do additional training. This is an essential podcast for any patient to understand what qualifications or experience they should expect from their practitioner, and to understand who is legally able to prescribe certain cosmetic medicines such as fillers, etc.

We chat to Dr Joseph Rizk, Plastic Surgeon, about the breast explant procedure which is becoming much more popular in recent years. Removing implants is a common option for women concerned about ALCL, wanting to replace their implants with fat transfer, having issues with their implants or the implants just no longer fitting in with their lifestyle. Dr Rizk recently performed an explant surgery on Brooke who shared her journey through her before and after images with us.

We caught up with Dr Jake Sloane from Inside Aesthetics Podcast at the recent Aesthetics 2019 conference to chat about why he loves the aesthetics industry; injectables in particular, and why he loves being a trainer and key opinion leader in such a progressive industry.

We caught up with Dr Arthur Swift from Arthur Swift Plastic Surgery in Montreal Canada at the recent Aesthetics 2019 conference to chat about his favourite non-surgical treatments and products for injectables and fillers.

We chat with Dr Shagun Aggarwal about Tummy Tucks, Abdominoplasty and Mummy Makeovers. Tummy tucks after pregnancy are common to remove loose skin and repair muscle separation. A tummy tuck can help a woman regain her body and core strength after pregnancy and childbirth and Dr Aggarwal talks us through what happens to a woman's body during the process of carrying a baby, especially after multiple pregnancies.

Mitchell Drinkard from Skinceuticals.

Stephanie shares her massive weight loss journey which led to her extended corset abdominoplasty and breast reduction with Dr Pouria Moradi. Stephanie says it was when her and her husband were trying for a baby that she decided she needed to lose some weight. However, after losing 16kg Stephanie fell pregnant with triplets and put her weight loss on hold. A couple of years after her children were born, Stephanie tried a weight loss program that worked and lost around 60kg. The excess skin that remained, along with her severe muscle separation, was what led her to have surgery to finish her journey. Stephanie had over 6kg of skin removed and talks us through the ups and downs of her journey and how she now helps others to lose weight just like she did.
