DEAR READERS
Welcome to the September issue of Aesthetic Medicine Magazine. We are going back to school with a special focus on training and education. This month, Aesthetic Medicine North returns with advanced education for medical professionals and CPD-accredited Injectables Masterclasses. Don’t miss this opportunity to network, learn and meet with the sector’s top brands.
We asked expert trainers to highlight some of the green and red flags to watch out for when investing in a provider, and look out for a fantastic opinion piece from new BAMAN chair Amy Bird on the need to come together to build better standards in education.
On the cover this month is the wonderful Dr Olha Vorodyukhina, who spoke to me all about how her early years growing up in nature shaped her holistic approach to aesthetics, her passion for education and exploring the emotional benefits of treatments in her podcast Beyond the Mirror.
In this issue, we also debunk TikTok skincare trends, try the latest in Korean innovation, explore the modern man and toxin and ask - why does imposter syndrome disproportionately affect women in business?
Thank you to all who contributed to this issue, and see you at Manchester Central for AM North!
