Dynamic Duos: Expert Guidance on Optimally Rejuvenating Perioral Lines and Tear Troughs With HA Fillers (CME/CE Webcast)

Activity Description and Purpose

The eyes and mouth area are 2 of the most dynamic and distinguishing features of the human face. Both convey emotions and profoundly influence what is and what is not perceived as youthful and attractive. As a result, procedures to rejuvenate the tear troughs and infraorbital hollows under the eyes and the perioral region are in high demand. Hyaluronic acid (HA) gel fillers are less-invasive, nonsurgical treatment options that are gaining both acceptance and popularity. In this educational activity, a dynamic duo of experts will review best practices and supporting clinical data on the use of HA fillers to safely and successfully reduce rhytids and restore fullness in these areas. The desired results of this activity are to aid aesthetic clinicians in selecting the most effective and safe HA filler that will provide the wanted results in individual patients.
