About this episode
Pene Timberlake was one of our very first guests (Episodes 3, 26 and 43) and is one of Australia's most experienced nurse injectors.
We learn about her progression from registered nurse to nurse practitioner, what the qualification involves, why it was so challenging, and why the door is now effectively closed for nurses wanting to become aesthetic nurse practitioners.
More than five years after her first appearance, we revisit the question of what makes a good cosmetic injector. With the landscape and regulations changing so much in Australia, we ask whether the bar has simply been set too low, whether the changes were necessary, and what else is needed to create a recognised injecting speciality.
