The problem is selling and managing memberships in your practice is not easy. The CEO of RepeatMD, Phil Sitter, will show the most profitable membership models and how they apply to your practice.

Prejuvenation is a term used to describe millennial patients who begin noninvasive aesthetic treatments earlier in life to prevent the signs of aging. Millennials are the largest consumer generation group in the United States, and it is essential for aesthetic providers to find the best strategy for targeting and retaining patients in this demographic. Gain insights on how to pair your minimally invasive procedures with PDO threads to achieve the most enhanced results for your millennial patients. In this session, Jennifer Levine, MD will share her knowledge on patient assessment, vector planning, and PDO combination techniques for the top 3 prejuvenation treatments in her practice.

The dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ) is a critical interface between the epidermis and dermis, playing a pivotal role in maintaining skin integrity and functionality. With aging, alterations in DEJ proteins, such as collagen, integrin, and laminin, contribute to the increased fragility of aged skin. Exosomes, small extracellular vesicles, have emerged as potential therapeutic agents due to their ability to synthesize collagen and elastic fibers.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of exosomes on the DEJ by comparing pre-and post-application of exosomes using TargetCool Boosting Mode after micro-needling. The study analyzed DEJ morphology using ultrasound.

Our findings reveal that applying exosomes using TargetCool Boosting Mode after microneedling enhances the synthesis of collagen and elastic fibers at the DEJ, leading to improved epidermal-dermal adherence, mechanical support, and increased surface area. These results highlight the potential of exosomes as a promising strategy to counteract age-related changes in the DEJ and restore the integrity and functionality of aged skin. Further research may pave the way for innovative therapeutic approaches in skin rejuvenation and anti-aging interventions.

In this "how to" session, Mark Tager, MD will guide you in how to add a valuable new revenue stream into your practice; one that also improves patient satisfaction and outcomes. To get the best results from aesthetic treatments, patients need the right nutrients, in the right amounts, at the right time. In this session, we will explore the role of key nutrients for skin health, the types of assessments (genomics, microbiome, food sensitivity, and more), and the products that you can use to create a personalized nutrition plan for your patients.

Join our expert faculty during The Aesthetic Show for U Masterclass, an interactive and immersive workshop all about low-lying lids or acquired ptosis

What is U Masterclass?

During this hands-on experience, you will learn:

• How low-lying lids impact your patients’ appearance

• How to efficiently incorporate a lid evaluation into a full facial assessment

• How to effectively assess your patients’ lids and take photos

• How to implement a new, first-in-class topical treatment for acquired ptosis into your practice

Clinical studies have shown that microbial post-biotics in the gut are altered in different skin diseases and can have a measurable impact on skin outcomes. In particular, the production of short-chain fatty acids in the gut and modulation of those short-chain fatty acids in circulation can alter the presence of acne and inflammation in the skin. The first double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial utilizing a probiotic as monotherapy for treatment of facial and truncal non cystic acne will be discussed. Finally, we will explore how this clinical trial offers proof that modulations to the gut microbiota with a specific probiotic formulation can change post-biotic expression and ultimately have a measurable impact on the skin, specifically acne.

Learning objectives:

• Discuss the differences between prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics
• Explore the role of probiotics and postbiotics in modulating the gut-skin axis
• Describe how gut derived post-biotics can impact immune-regulated skin disorders, especially acne
• Examine the evidence for the role of a specific probiotic, SereneSkin, and a clinical trial targeting its impact on non- cystic acne on the face and trunk.
