  • Dr Jake Sloane & David Segal - What's trending in aesthetics (Chapter 12)' #304
    Jun 12 2025

    Episode 304 showcases our hosts Dr Jake Sloane & David Segal.

    In our 'What's trending in Aesthetics?' episodes we discuss popular topics doing the rounds on social media, issues being debated in injector forums or items showcased on the news. We'll cover controversies, big stories and themes that have got injectors and our industry talking.

    In chapter 12 we discuss the decline of HA filler use around the world and the rise of biostimulators. We then predict a future potential serious problem as a result of this new trend.

    We reflect on how these trends intersect with the continuing consolidation on the market and pressures on clinics, suppliers and the shifting role of pharma BDM's (reps).

    We then explore the ramifications of the FDA's decision to compounded GLP 1 medications in the USA.

    Finally we update our audience about our IA Competition draw (join us tonight on IG Live), new bonus content, and Dr Jake & David's upcoming travel plans.
