About this episode
In The Business of Injecting we host injectors and clinic owners to talk through the business side of their clinics: finances, tough decisions, friction points, staffing, hiring and firing.
In 2008 Melissa Isaia and Nicole Schmid-Sanele created Juvae, an all-in-one solution for training, business support and connecting nurse injectors with clinics. At the time the Australian injectable market was very immature: the chain clinics hadn't formed, social media was in its infancy, hyaluronidase wasn't a thing, and the aesthetic world was far simpler.
In Chapter 7 we explore their backgrounds, how and why they created Juvae, how Juvae assesses competency, the dilemma of new graduate nurses training specifically to become injectors, what the Cosmetic Nurses Association (CNA) is and why they helped found it, what happens behind closed doors when bodies like the CNA meet AHPRA, and how the Australian market might evolve.
