Today’s highlights involved meeting the worlds most prolific injector of Botox. \u00a0He works in Singapore. \u00a0He gave a great lecture about injecting Botox in a certain way which could work for some Keloid scars. \u00a0The protocol is detailed and he shared it with the attendees of the Vegas Cosmetic Surgery and Aesthetic Dermatology Conference.<\/p>\n
I attended a few sessions on laser and Cool Sculpting. \u00a0Cool Sculpting is a method of non surgical fat reduction. \u00a0It uses the idea of cryolipolysis. \u00a0CoolSculpting is a trademark owned by Zeltiq. \u00a0They hosted a cocktail hour at the conference at around 6:15pm tonight.<\/p>\n
I got a chance to greet the reps for Allergan at the Convention. \u00a0What was interesting today for me was getting more information about doing virtual patient follow ups. \u00a0I didn’t think I was ready for such a thing, but it’s out there. \u00a0It’s kind of like recording your post op visit on a secure youtube website and then having the doctor review it later and write you some secure email.<\/p>\n
I particularly liked the sessions on TCA peeling<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n We also spent some time with another cosmetic plastic surgeon from Modesto, CA. \u00a0It was good to see another familiar face at the meeting.<\/p>\n In the evening, there was a dinner program put together by Valeant – the owners of Restylane, Perlane, Sculptra, Dysport, Obagi<\/a>, and Renova (a form of Tretinoin)<\/a>. \u00a0We saw some live amazing cosmetic injection techniques by some legendary doctors.<\/p>\n I am getting so overloaded with all this great information!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Today’s highlights involved meeting the worlds most prolific injector of Botox. \u00a0He works in Singapore. \u00a0He gave a great lecture about injecting Botox in a certain way which could work for some Keloid scars. \u00a0The protocol is detailed and he shared it with the attendees of the Vegas Cosmetic Surgery and Aesthetic Dermatology Conference.
