Course Details

Course Description/Purpose:
While it is known that dermal fillers can stimulate neocollagenesis, biostimulatory fillers have longer durations than standard HA fillers and their ability to stimulate neocollagenesis is well documented. More recently, the use of dilute or hyperdilute CaHA has demonstrated targeted neocollagenesis leading to improved skin laxity and quality in areas such as the neck, décolletage, upper arms, upper legs, abdomen and buttocks. When combined with energy-based treatments such as microfocused ultrasound, monopolar radiofrequency and bipolar needle radiofrequency, the results are typically further enhanced. This course will explore these uses in the face, neck and décolletage in more detail through a lecture, demonstrations and faculty discussions.
