Additional Course Information
Course Overview
When visiting Houston for the Mesotherapy Training Course, attendees will receive guidance on the newest medications and treatments available for treating submental fat accumulation, as well as the different medications and compounds that have been proven effective for performing spot fat reduction procedures.
Protocols for Mesotherapy injections or PC/DC treatments (Phosphatidylcholine and Deoxycholate) are also included throughout the course. Study different areas of the body, understand patient selection and learn to perform different fat reduction and fat melting procedures safely under the supervision of our board-certified instructors.
Other topics include adjunctive and conjunctive therapies, considering Mesotherapy as the perfect adjunct alternative for women who have undergone lipo surgery, significant weight loss, or post-partum weight loss. The course also reviews the use of RF-Thermal Body Circumference devices (VelaShape/Accent) and other skin-tightening laser techniques in conjunction with Mesotherapy.
To further complement previous knowledge, attendees will review different causal elements for cellulite in women, which might include high estrogen levels, smoking, unrestricted diets, impaired venous return, lymphatic drainage, and genetic disposition to smaller subcutaneous fatty chambers. By clearing up cellulite-associated myths and having a better understanding of causes, attendees should be able to consult, discuss and create better treatment plans for their patients. Ultimately, attendees should gather the necessary knowledge to become key aesthetic providers in Houston.
