“The Business of Beauty – Are Injectables a Good Fit in Your Practice?” by Dr. Gigi Meinecke
TARGET AUDIENCE
Clinicians considering getting trained in facial injectable procedures such as Botox and dermal fillers.

COURSE DESCRIPTION
Before committing time and financial resources to a treatment modality such as facial injectables, it’s important to know if these procedures suit your practice, your skills and especially your interests. This program provides an overview of current FDA approved facial injectables and how they integrate with dental practice. At the conclusion of the program, participants will be better able to:
- Discuss indications for Botox, dermal fillers and deoxycholic acid
- Describe how injectable products are used to improve signs of facial aging
- Discuss the business implications and requirements for successful implementation
