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 19, Texas physician assistant April Harrison shares her path into aesthetics, the Houston market and aesthetic trends, balancing family life and work, and the influence of mentors including Dr Arthur Swift.

We discuss designing better injector training, follow-ups and patient reviews, full-face planning and consultation, educating patients through social media, raising standards in injectables, restorative beauty, going solo after 18 years, keeping superstar staff, respect for non-doctor injectors, her treatment menu and business operations, pricing, vascular occlusion stories and learning ultrasound.
