About this episode
To celebrate our milestone 300th episode, we were honoured to welcome back Dr Jean Carruthers and Dr Michael Kane. Their previous episodes (120 and 190) are among the five most listened-to in our history.
These two legendary pioneers helped discover and develop botulinum toxin treatment and facial aesthetics as a speciality. With 40 years on the advisory boards and research teams of every major pharmaceutical company, their experience is unparalleled.
In Part 1 we go deep into where we've come from: the origins of toxins, the Hall strain and toxin subtypes, early experiments, trials and complications, botulinum toxin B, the long-term effects of muscle relaxation, training new injectors, consultation, and toxin's role beyond wrinkles in emotional wellness. Part 2 is available exclusively in IA Community.
