Episode 291 hosts Dr Mobin Master (Radiologist & Cosmetic Physician based in Gold Coast, Australia)
We hosted Mobin way back in episode 93 where we first discussed the use of ultrasound in aesthetics. So we re-visit the topic, 4 years on to dicuss Mobin's research and experience in managing patients with filler complications. We discuss the evolution of ultrasound and the pros and cons of injectors trying to learn this technology. Mobin explains the relevance of facial MRI scans in his practice to identify chronic filler issues, including conditions like post-septal filler placement and malar edema. He emphasizes the importance of precision and low doses when using hyalase and discusses his approach to managing complications like vascular occlusions and delayed onset nodules. The conversation also touches upon the need for better training and patient management with complications, with practical advice for both novice and experienced injectors. We highlight the nuances in filler longevity and the realities of its impacts over time. 00:00 Introduction 01:56 Our Guest: Dr Mobin Master 06:13 Ultrasound in Practice 10:21 Challenges and Solutions in Aesthetic Procedures 18:51 Filler Longevity and Complications 28:51 Patient Management and Ethical Considerations 47:59 Effective Use of Hilas in Treatments 48:39 Advice for Practitioners Without Ultrasound 49:15 Pricing and Consultation Strategies 50:10 Challenges and Frustrations in the Field 50:34 Insurance and Legal Considerations 51:51 The Importance of MRIs and Ultrasound 57:08 Understanding Vascular Occlusions 01:01:47 Training and Upskilling for Injectors 01:03:52 Future of the Aesthetics Industry 01:05:13 Managing Complications and Patient Safety 01:07:48 Common Issues with Fillers and Nodules 01:11:09 Post-Hila Syndrome and Allergic Reactions 01:19:30 Learning and Practicing Ultrasound Techniques 01:24:51 Final Thoughts and Personal Insights
