Statement of Need
Aesthetic medicine clinicians need quality instruction and training to keep informed about continuing innovations in the aesthetic use of injectable soft tissue fillers and neuromodulators, energy-based ultrasound rejuvenation therapies, and technologies for controlled subcision. These intensive 3-hour activities are intended for practitioners who wish to enhance their techniques and skills in facial rejuvenation. A concise introductory didactic lecture will review the processes of aging in facial skin and deeper tissues and differentiate evolving products and techniques for facial rejuvenation. Expert faculty will present video case studies and perform live demonstrations, providing attendees with valuable guidance on how to better individualize treatment, including product selection and dosing, optimal use of combination therapy, and how to address challenges of aesthetic rejuvenation.
