Annual Conference

Educational Needs

Lectures will focus on the most recent advances for photo-damaged, scarred and in lax skin utilizing a broad spectrum of state-of-the-art devices.   It is anticipated that the attendees will familiarize themselves with the various technologies prior to attending this course as the speakers will focus on advanced applications rather than introductory concepts.  

Participants
This course is designed for those practitioners that have an interest in skin rejuvenation and body contouring through the use of lasers, light sources, and radio-frequency devices.  

Background Requirements

This course is NOT intended as an introductory course.  Physics of the various technologies will be presented at an advanced level.  

Instructional Content and/or Expected Learning Outcomes 

This course will provide an opportunity to gain perspective on the role of ablative, non-ablative resurfacing and rejuvenation techniques.  Newer therapeutic options in ablative and non-ablative fractional resurfacing, radio-frequency and ultrasound, as well as facial/body recontouring techniques will also be reviewed.
