I am in my 7th year as a Registered Nurse, currently working as a Cosmetic Injector & Aesthetic Consultant at tw&SKIN in Caringbah. I have been in the cosmetic field for over 2 years now and in my time injecting I have worked along side extremely experienced Nurses and Doctors, where I have gained advance knowledge and techniques, which is what I believe sets me apart from other young nurses in this field.
