After 17 years treating patients in Townsville, one of the hottest cities in Australia with an average maximum of 29 degrees, Dr Monique Flores knows more than most about skin cancer and aesthetic treatments. Here she shares with us her journey from local GP to cosmetic doctor.
HOW DID YOU BEGIN YOUR CAREER IN THE AESTHETICS INDUSTRY?
I’ve always been very interested in aesthetics but didn’t pursue a career in the industry until after I began working in General Practice in 2002.
In my role at a suburban practice, I ended up treating a lot of patients with skin cancer and found that I really enjoyed it, so I began developing my skills and knowledge in the area.
