The
IAPAM's Aesthetic Medicine Symposium offers the most comprehensive
clinical botox ® training for physicians looking to add aesthetic
medicine to their existing practices, or to launch a new medical spa.
The IAPAM's Symposium offers training in all the top 5 minimally
invasive modalities, to ensure that physicians add both in-demand
procedures and maximum profit to their practices.
Las
Vegas, Nevada, USA - September 18, 2012 -- At the IAPAM's
(http://www.iapam.com)
Aesthetic
Medicine Symposium with Botox ® Training,
physicians learn botox ® best practices as well as how to
incorporate other complementary aesthetic procedures like physician
directed skincare and chemical peels into a successful practice.
While
injectables are important, physicians have found that more profit can
be realized by packaging injectables with other modalities, such as
microdermabrasion or laser skin rejuvenation.
In
the newest
video in the IAPAM's Symposium Preview video series,
Jeff Russell, Executive Director of the IAPAM, outlines the economic
benefits of packaging injectables with other modalities, such as
medical microderm, chemical peels or physician directed skin care,
and the IAPAM's Symposium offers instruction in all these aesthetic
medicine modalities.
IAPAM's
NEW Video: Botox
® Training Tips for a Financially Profitable Aesthetic Practice
In
the aforementioned video, Mr. Russell explains that there is little
profit in only offering Botox ®. One only makes $100-150 a patient
and the physician only sees a patient 3 times a year, so for an
entire year one makes $300-450 for one Botox ® patient. Whereas, the
cost to provide a chemical peel treatment is $25 ($20 labour, $5
products) and the retail is typically around $125, so the profit is
$100, and the patient needs to come back once a month, so with a
chemical peel patient, the physician makes $1,200/year versus
$300-450 for a Botox ® patient. The IAPAM's Symposium teaches is how
to combine these modalities so physicians can make $1,650/year per
patient (plus another $300-500 on skin care and mineral makeup
sales).
What
is important to the IAPAM is that when physicians finish the weekend,
they have everything they need to start offering aesthetics
procedures right afterwards. That is why the IAPAM also includes a 19
DVD training kit, that covers all of the operational parts of an
aesthetic practice as well as a clinical overview of Botox ® and
dermal filler injections.
Finally,
Mr. Russell shares that, "we are hearing from our members that
physician directed skin care, as well as chemical peels and
microdermabrasion are in tremendous demand by patients, and we are
seeing a correlating increase in the demand for our Symposium
training. Physicians are realizing they not only need to offer botox
® treatments to their patients, but also laser hair removal, IPL
skin rejuvenation, etc. Organizations, like the IAPAM, educate
doctors on how to package treatments for the most appealing and
profitable outcomes." Mr. Russell has also received comments
from IAPAM members regarding "the importance of adding an
hCG/medical weight management offering to patients, in order to grow
a practice."
