The
growth in minimally-invasive, less expensive anti-aging treatments
such as Botox ®, dermal fillers, and hCG for weight loss continues
to grow in the second half of 2012. From family physicians to
internists to obstetricians & gynecologists, many physicians have
decided to add these services to their existing practices. To meet
this need, the IAPAM announces the dates for its next Aesthetic
Medicine Symposium, September 22-23, 2012, in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Las
Vegas, Nevada, USA - August 9, 2012 -- As reported in Medical
Economics, the increase in interest in the field of aesthetic
medicine makes sense when one considers that, "the bulk of
cosmetic procedure clients are the very people who dominate the
patient panels of internists and family physicians. Women aged 35 to
50 years have 44% of these procedures, and women between the ages of
51 and 65 have an additional 20%."
To
help physicians add these non-surgical modalities to a practice, and
enter this lucrative cash-based market, the IAPAM offers the
industry's leading dermatologist-led Aesthetic Medicine Symposium
with Botox ® Training in Scottsdale, Arizona. At the IAPAM's
September 22-23 Symposium
(http://iapam.com/aesthetic-medicine-symposium-botox-training),
physicians will receive everything they need, to start safely and
profitably offering Botox ® and other in-demand aesthetic medicine
procedures right away.
"About
5 million nonsurgical cosmetic procedures were performed by
aestheticians last year, frequently in a spa setting," says Jeff
Russell, executive director of the IAPAM (http://www.iapam.com).
"Many primary care physicians (PCPs) have decided to meet the
demand for these services by actively controlling the "med"
part of these "medspas"."
Therefore,
the IAPAM's Aesthetic Medicine Symposium is specifically designed by
physicians, for physicians, to educate and train on the top cosmetic
procedures like: Botox ®, dermal filler injections, lasers for skin
rejuvenation & laser hair removal, medical microdermabrasion, and
medical grade chemical peels. The IAPAM's September 22-23 Symposium
has integrated the most important clinical, aesthetic medicine
business, and Botox ® training ALL into one weekend, including:
-
dedicated instruction from board-certified dermatologists, who are
true experts of the skin and cosmetic injectables;
-
hands-on practice in the best injection techniques;
-
Botox ® training at a multi-million dollar medical practice, not in
a hotel room; and
-
an environment that does not allow exhibitors, giving physicians more
time for education.
Attendees
also have the opportunity to:
Since
2006, over 1000 physicians (MDs, DOs, NPs, PAs, DDSs etc.) and their
staff (RNs, MAs, practice managers, etc.), have attended the IAPAM's
Aesthetic Medicine Symposiums and hCG Training seminars, and been
certified by the IAPAM. Also, the year of personalized practice
support and the wealth of resources included with one's training,
definitely make the IAPAM's programs different than the others.
The
dates for the next Aesthetic Medicine Symposium are September 22-23,
2012 in Scottsdale, Arizona. For additional information or to
