IA X Fresh Clinics: Building a Business in the USA (Chapter 2)

Inside Aesthetics

In chapter 2 of our new bonus mini-series with Fresh Clinics we host Dr John Holbrook (Co-founder of Fresh Clinics from Sydney, Australia) & Ryan Bourgeois (Nurse Practitioner from Texas, USA). (If you missed chapter 1, these episodes are published on Wednesday's and chapter 3 will be out on July 9th! You can also watch the entire video of these podcasts either on Spotify or our YouTube channel) In chapter 2 we discuss how two very different businesses established themselves so successfully in the USA - and then eventually became intertwined! We discuss Ryan's transition from acting and TV fame to emergency medicine and then to aesthetics. We get insights into his opening and operating of his successful med spa, and the vital role of proper training, dedication, ethics and compliance. John sheds light on Fresh Clinics' innovative approach to supporting med spas in the USA. Practical business advice and the future of injectables, including the role of AI and bio-regenerative treatments, are also explored. This episode underscores the importance of education, safety, and strategic business planning in the competitive and evolving aesthetic industry. 00:00 Introduction 00:56 Today's Topic and Guests 01:35 Ryan's Journey into Aesthetics 05:06 The Evolution of Aesthetic Treatments 13:55 Fresh Clinics' Expansion and Services 23:24 The Genesis of Bougie Aesthetics 32:32 Marketing Strategies and Clientele Evolution 36:41 Navigating Regulatory Challenges in the US and Australia 40:17 Operational Models and Compliance in Med Spas 50:59 Balancing Clinical Duties and Business Management 55:06 Future Trends in Aesthetic Medicine and AI Integration 01:05:23 Final Thoughts and Special Offers SPECIAL OFFER:
