In this episode, hosts Jon and Nicole sit down with the legendary Julie Kaplan—a 27-year industry pioneer, master clinical anatomy educator, and the genius creator behind the famous "Head and Breakfast" cadaver workshops. Julie brings her unmatched clinical expertise, tackling the most urgent conversations shifting the aesthetic medicine landscape today. We pull back the curtain on the alarming rise of black-market counterfeit products on social media and outline exactly how patients can spot red flags before stepping into a medical spa. Julie shares her signature clinical pearls on advanced regenerative aesthetics, breaking down her precise depth strategies for injecting Sculptra and Hyperdilute Radiesse to avoid the platysma muscle and prevent nodules. You'll learn her exact protocol for managing difficult nodules with 5-FU, how she safely stacks Skinvive via cannula, and why the future of aesthetic medicine relies on 3D ultrasound anatomy visualization on stage and in the clinic. Beyond the syringes, Julie drops massive practice management gold on how to hire exclusively to your core values, the art of building genuine patient lifetime value through emotional connection, and why staying authentic to yourself is the ultimate key to professional longevity.
