Specialty Focus Workshop:
Rejuvenating the Older Lip
>1 years’ experience

Program Description:
Well defined and full lips are a hallmark of attractiveness and beauty. Facial aging is accompanied by changes in the perioral area leading to wrinkles, folds, and loss of contour and volume of the lips. This becomes more pronounced in subjects over the age of 55. This workshop will focus on injection techniques of HA fillers and neurotoxin, tailored to the needs of more mature lips.

Program Format:

30 minutes
Welcome and Registration

Expert Assessment and Treatment Demonstration

Hands-on Instruction With the Experts

Learning Objectives:

At the conclusion of the program, participants will be better able to:

  • Interpret principles of facial anatomy and physiology, including gender- and ethnic-relevant differences and the effects of aging, in order to assess the need for nonsurgical facial rejuvenation
  • Perform comprehensive and individualized patient assessment and manage expectations – in the context of relevant cultural and gender aesthetic considerations − in order to improve patient satisfaction
  • Interpret areas of muscle activity and facial volume deficits as they contribute to aesthetic appearance, in order to properly target injection sites
  • Demonstrate injection techniques for nonsurgical facial rejuvenation, in order to assure the most beneficial product placement
  • Improve injection skills, in order to optimize patient outcomes
  • Incorporate strategies for nonsurgical facial rejuvenation in younger patients, in order to optimize the quality of outcomes over time
  • Recognize the normal and atypical anatomical positions of critical vascular and neurologic structures within the face, in order to assure patient safety and avoid/minimize treatment complications

Who Should Attend:

Experienced clinicians who are interested in refining their injection technique for the older lip.
