Target Audience

This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of clinicians (Physicians, Registered Nurses, Nurse Practitioners, Licensed Practical Nurses, Physician Assistants, Dentists, and Medical Assistants by special arrangement) involved in the care of patients seeking aesthetic enhancement procedures.

This comprehensive one-day hands-on-training workshop explores the multiple cosmetic applications of Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF). In aesthetics, we all know about PRP but little about PRF.  PRF is not a new procedure; it has been used for a long time in dentistry and wound healing, contrary to the hype of the media.  Simply, PRF is a semi-solid form of PRP….with a little extra help, to be used as a filling agent. The didactic presentation will include; PRP theory, mechanism of action, the optimal level of platelets needed for angiogenesis (studies noted).  Are more platelets better? Does equipment matter?  Presentation will include the most recently talked about PRF – Platelet Rich Fibrin injections.We will discuss PRP as a stand-alone treatment, PRP with fat grafting, PRP with fillers (Vampire Lift®), PRP with Ablative Fractional Laser, RF and high-intensity Ultrasound (deep dermal heating) devices. Discussion of other complementary modalities and protocols used with PRP to enhance treatments, such as microtrauma techniques, micro-needling, photo-stimulation, stem cell attractants, how to incorporate PPP (Platelet Poor Plasma),  carboxytherapy and mesotherapy.  Primary focus regarding treatment protocols will be on face and neck aging and treatment protocols for hair loss. However, we will also discuss scars, acne, stretch marks, cellulite and more using PRP and PRF.  A live demonstration will be performed explaining procedure and techniques to bolster your knowledge and ultimately prepare you for the hands-on practice sessions.

With ESI’s low student to instructor ratio, our intense afternoon hands-on sessions supervised by our expert instructors will provide a tailored one-on-one experience.  During the lecture and  Q & A sessions you will gain valuable insight and pearls on the “how to” of this unique business model for optimal success.  Each attendee will receive a course manual, PowerPoint slide deck, CD’s loaded with articles, studies, business and practice documents  (i.e. consent, standardized procedure and protocol policies, purchasing sources and more).
