About this episode
The Injector Diaries feature in-depth conversations with injectors from around the globe, from newcomers to masters. We explore how and why they started injecting, the products they favour and what happens under the hood of their clinics.
In Chapter 12 we meet Dr Patricia Barrera, a cosmetic physician in Paraná, Argentina. Patricia went to medical school in the USA before moving back to Argentina to work as a junior hospital doctor. After a year of surgical training she discovered her passion for aesthetic medicine and has worked as a cosmetic physician ever since.
We discuss choosing aesthetic medicine over surgery, the lack of regulation in Argentina, building an aesthetic medicine association, training standards and patient safety, complication management and CMAC, ultrasound, resistance to new technology, cultural trends, saying no to patients and planning a multidisciplinary clinic.
