Specialty Focus Workshop: Rejuvenating the Neck and Décolleté
Featuring Poly-L-lactic Acid
≥ 2 years’ experience

Program Description:
The appearance of wrinkles and crepey skin on the neck and décolleté is a major concern for many patients. Injections of hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers or biostimulators can help to restore age-related volume loss on the surface of the skin and stimulate collagen production. Hyperdilute neuromodulator injections can improve skin quality and appearance. This 4-hour workshop will provide advanced instruction on nonsurgical rejuvenation of the neck, and chest/décolleté with injectable poly-L-lactic acid, neuromodulators, HA dermal fillers and deoxycholic acid.
Please note: Participants must have greater than 2 years prior experience to participate

  • Recognize the benefits, challenges, and practical concerns associated with nonsurgical rejuvenation in areas beyond the face and/or noninvasive body contouring to customize aesthetic treatment strategies for patients, optimize treatment outcomes, and minimize complications
  • Demonstrate minimally-invasive techniques and modalities for rejuvenation and/or contouring of nonfacial body areas, in order to meet individual patient’s personal aesthetic preferences and maximize patient satisfaction
  • Improve injection skills, in order to optimize patient outcomes
  • Identify critical neurovascular and other relevant anatomic structures and recognize potential complications that may occur when rejuvenating or contouring non-facial body areas, in order to assure patient safety and avoid treatment-related adverse events
