Episode 190 hosts Dr Michael Kane (Facial Plastic Surgeon, New York, USA)
Michael's clinical experience with botulinum toxin is unparalleled. Having completed well over 100,000 treatments since 1991, he single-handedly developed many of the toxin protocols and facial muscle treatments; in an era when almost no-one was even using toxins. Michael's experience is so well respected that he has consulted in the trials and launches of every single brand of botulinum toxin.
In our mini series 'The Tox Talks', we feature expert injectors who have significant experience in using a particular brand of a botulinum toxin as well as teaching it's use to other injectors. In this episode, we explore Michael's life time journey with the products and his experience as the world’s undisputed ‘King Of Tox’.
We explore:
- Michael's story of how and why he first started using Botox as a plastic surgery fellow
- The story of botulinum toxin going back to it's very first use in humans & the grandfather of toxins, Dr Allan Scott
- How Michael & the Carruthers team both independantly studied Botox for cosmetic purposes in the early 1990's
- The effect of toxins on the skin and how this is perceived differently in the West vs in Asia
- The issue with clinical trials and how these limit the training of injectors to use toxins
- How this has created a mindset problem for injectors & has limited the treatment possibilities for our patients
- How Michael approaches his toxin consultations
- Charging per area vs per unit
- How to differentiate yourself as a toxin injector
- What toxins Michael has in his clinic
- The question of whether injectors should swap patients to different or new brands of toxin
- Why the market needs more toxins
- Michael's take on toxin resistance and how to limit it
